I got a good one yesterday talking to a lib when I described herding in the context of polling (when pollsters drop outliers to conform to what other polls say). Yes he trusts polls in 2022. They're "reputable companies." He really, really wants to believe the Dems will win the midterms.

Anyway I wanna hear your best ones!

    Their response when I point out that the CIA has literally admitted to this shit is always "oh now you believe the CIA?"

      Man kills 672 people without directly admitting to it or being caught MOST of the time

      A: I don't trust him

      B: Why not? He says he's doing good things to help the community

      Same man confesses to 45 killings

      A: I knew it

      B: So you trust his word now??

      I got that with the report about soviet nutrition being better than American's.

      Like UHH what? How would that benefit them by lying about it? To make the soviets look good?

      This is the time to do a complete 180 character switch and go "well why shouldn't i believe the CIA? Are they untrustworthy or something?" And just keep calling them a conspiracy theorist if they express anything but 100% support and credibility for our brave wholesome James Bonderionos.

      Why yes I am a lazy fuck who likes to needle other people into making my points for me
