It's astounding how accurate this is. I spent 2016 - 2024 playing this game with a friend that I eventually cut off.
He'd parrot something insane that he didn't fact check.
I'd point out the flaws.
He'd come back with his google search results.
I'd actually read them and point out half of them disagreed with him and the other half were verifiably trash.
He'd run away from the conversation and refuse to respond to anything political I say until he forgets; cuz he never learns.
