You're right, but also I think you're wrong. There's a distinct and long winded problem about Americans just not getting the education they deserve and multiple media sources attempting to braindrain them...but here's the problem.
There's a fundamental line where "misinformed but well meaning" becomes "deranged and propaganda addled", and at some point you have to stop blaming their environment and their country and recognize that these are in fact people who reject reality to allow them to live within a false one that fits their desires better, and nothing will ever change their mind.
At that point, you're never going to be able to politely explain to them that they believe in an Illusion, I've tried for years as politely and warmly as I could...but the average terminally online American is entirely beyond connection.
I could argue for clowning on them is more then nothing (as it at least marks the belief as foolish and wrong to onlookers), but honestly after half a decade of speaking politely to the brainwashed masses on Reddit/4Chan/other websites I'm not going to name, it's just a nice form of stress relief and it's functionally no worse then doing it politely as they'll take any form of opposition as proof of their rightness.
I made a post yesterday about a Qanon lie and I've already gotten someone in the comment thingy claiming I'm clearly part of the pedophile ring...They didn't even need more then that. It wouldn't change a thing if the post had also called peopke like that slack-jawed indolents lacking enough awareness that they'd willingly leap into a wood chipper if it was labelled Teleporter.
America needs substantial reforming of their educational system, it's in fact my belief that all good societies should be focused on overhauling it with the times so children are properly equipped, and something I regularly scream about...
But also the people I'm talking about (the 25-35% of the population who loves Trumpism) are the people who want me and anyone in the Alphabet mafia dead. They are long past the point of reason and they will never be reasoned with and made to see the error of their ways.
Society and the general conversation about these topics are long past the point where being polite will change anything, so at that point I'd rather dunk on them then play at falze niceties and explain how if only an engaging teacher taught them basic history then they'd not be a Nazi!
TLDR: I'm bitter and old and don't believe there's a single lick of difference between saying it politely and saying they lick poisonous mushrooms to get high like their intellectual cousins, Deer.

You know Elon probably saw this and was super mad he still can't fire Halli.
#I can you see your viewpoint about it#Because i use to have it as well and it just doesnt matter#Any American with a brain will recognize automatically im talking about Yallqueda#I've spoken to hundreds and tried to reasonable and rationally explain things to and I kept track#I convinced six people that something was wrong with their world belief and maybe got another dozen to question the narrative#I am not saying you should stop believing what you believe though#I do try to be polite when possible but at the same time you need to draw a line in the sand#They are still sapient beings and need to be treated as such even if they've got a very smooth brain#Propaganda steals your wrinkles
