    The only way to combat Russian trolls is to not call them out?

    That’s not what I said. Calling them out plays into their hands, but not doing so isn’t itself a strategy any more than not jumping on your opponent’s sword is a strategy. The actual strategy is to engage in good faith - even if you don’t think others do. Who knows, you might learn something.

    Conspiracy. Wake up, sheeple!

    Your reading comprehension needs practice. I said consensus, not conspiracy. Anyways, you know perfectly well that this exists between the RNC and Fox News, but it’s suddenly a “conspiracy theory” when it’s your guys. The press is supposed to be adversarial, but when did you last see a tough interview? It’s in small part a transactional thing, but it’s mostly just a culture perpetuating itself as cultures do. If you don’t realize this, your media literacy is adolescent at best.

    Curious how you never specified that before lol

    Curious how you keep using the word curious. What are you implying, and how is that not a distinction without a difference? It’s still the DNC changing the rules in midstream to favor a big donor.

    Much like you never specified that your claims of the DNC shenanigans were from Bermie’s run almost 10 years ago

    I referred to that instance earlier, so I provided that link. Did you think I was talking about Bernie’s 2024 run? That’s not a thing. I also provided links relevant to only the 2024 primary.

    You are rapidly losing my trust.

    Uh, OK?

      That didn’t happen.

      And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

      And if it was, that’s not a big deal. <— you are here

      And if it is, that’s not my fault.

      And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

      And if I did, you deserved it.
