I love that you did this, and that it was successful, but TBH I don’t have the time and energy in my life for doing the lord’s work this way. I just block and move the fuck on. I assume if they don’t get attention they will go away, but either way I’ll have made it not my problem and others can make the same decision or not.
I had a friend I used to argue with all the time. He would post blatantly false shit on Facebook and I’d call him out. And we’d go back and forth until ultimately he would concede that he “didn’t really know that much about it.” And then the next day he would post the exact same lies like we’d never even danced that dance.
I can’t confront that level of willful idiocy. It cost him nothing to post lies, while I’d spend an hour or so researching facts, providing links, and explaining that oil industry insiders might not be a great source for climate science (for example).

I’m not arguing with the poster, I’m speaking g up so others aren’t afraid.
