    Downvote away, but your last sentence is exactly what you’re making an accusation of, bad faith and strawman.

      Ok, you know what? I agree. You’re right, it was really presumptuous and hypocritical to say that. And disproportionately hostile. But if I had left out that last sentence, what would your reaction be? Would you have agreed, or would you have claimed it was not propaganda and that the dude was not acting in bad faith?

        Oh, I’m with you, and I know it’s frustrating when you want to raise the discourse and seemingly all they want to do is wallow in the mud. I was just pointing out when you join them you can be just as easily dismissed instead of getting your point made.
