Deep cut but so very representative of right wing people. They have two modes of supporting their arguments:
Rare: drown you in bs arguments (here are 350 made up examples of how the election was stolen) knowing you won’t refute each one. You give up, they think they “won”. This can come in the form of a 2 hour youtube.
Common: “I don’t need evidence, I just know”, “I’m telling you that most regulations are bad, but can’t give you a single example”, or "I am ignoring your obvious question because I have never thought deeply about this and can’t face that reality ".
My personal favorite is when they link a article that completely contradicts their point and refuse to discuss that.
The way they share facts that contradict their arguments, but somehow interpret them to mean the exact opposite, has been one of the hardest things to deal with in personal conversations. Just makes me want to shake them while yelling “no, that’s not how that works! That’s not how any of that works!”

I just asked Sarah Palin, she says: “All of them.”

Yes, you have your facts, but we have our own facts. 🤡
