Chess with pigeons.
Had this kind of shit happen, had 20 links backing up my debunk, he didn’t have one… he claimed it was some conspiracy
I said “Okay, either it’s a grand conspiracy that all 20 of these competing news sites are working together, or Trump really did save those orphans from a church fire set by communists. Which is it?”
If you thinl memes are supposed to be a source to get facts, then you are probably dumber than the ones getting their news from Fox.
They are only really funny when there is some truth to them so those seeing them find the humor when they agree, leaving it unchallenged leaves individuals to believe the “truth” that exists within the meme. Some people just don’t like letting propaganda sit unchallenged.
All that said, yeah getting your “facts” from a meme is pretty dumb.
Fucking truth.
They just keep smugly acting like they’re right and completely refuse to acknowledge anything presented to the contrary. Then act like they won.
They did win. It’s tautological. They won because they think they won. If they loose they shift the goal posts so they win. You have to bring your arguments to them and they decide if they are valid. And when they get into a corner and can’t possibly win they win the only way possible: by making sure that when they lose, you lose more.
That’s exactly how I feel when I read a comment on Lemmy about someone justifying the wrath of Israel upon Palestine hospitals.
