You’re correct, of course. But there are still a certain amount of Republican voters who like to pretend they have principles. Then there are also so-called centrists and politically disengaged folks. Sometimes they need to be reminded exactly who these charlatans are, so there can be no excuse for confusing one side of the political spectrum with the other.
Yeah, I came to the same understanding when I used to counter conspiracy nuts denying climate change and evolution etc.
You’ll never convince them they’re wrong or hypocrites… But people who stumble upon the thread that are not super critical thinkers will see the discussion and you can help them realise the person is actually full of shit.
Sometimes they can lie believably enough that people fall for it, and some of those people will snap out of it when they see the contradiction and logical fallacies.
