If you would just go one step further and put a link up that you already have, it would be 100x more helpful. I’m not disputing, but human nature/reaction is weird and logically we’re dying from a thousand cuts. A few percentage are misinformed because “they read somewhere once”, a few more by pure propaganda and gaslighting, then tribalism kicks in and someone may not even want to read your reply at all.
Just dropping a link lets them know you’re engaged and the link pops nicely instead of just non-stop text (you also have the links, it’s not a huge step). It also makes it appear you are just sharing info you have, not attacking the validity of their statement personally like you’re trying to one up them (this happens a lot unfortunately). None of this is important though unless you choose it to be, engage with how you feel best accomplishes your goal.
