"the point of debate isn't the convince the guy you're debating, it's to sway the people watching the debate".
people who don't understand how social media algorithms work say this. Debating idiots on social media MAINly just gets more views to the idiot's viewpoint. The ideas of fascist apologists and their like don't deserve being challenged in the marketplace of ideas, they need to be in the tucked safely away from the sort of folks who think they believe what they believe through facts and reason rather than having been exposed to those ideas through a lifetime of propaganda.
The main point of online debate is to bait your opponent into wasting their time. If they spend 1 hour to epically own your 5-second shitpost, you've won because they've wasted 1 hour of their time compared with your 5 second. You can make them waste even more time by insisting that they sound mad in the hopes that they'll take the bait and continue to epically own you.

Mainly gets more views to the idiots viewpoints sure but it still gets more views to those who may be sympathetic to your opinion
Many people have admitted that GZD and CTH were the ones that made them sympathetic to communism
Any visibility is good visibility if you're going to be posting propaganda
this needs some deep frying. I can see entirely too many pixels.
