What have we learned from this discussion?
@DeficitHawk is obviously intelligent, educated, and able to express his ideas. Unfortunately he would not consider counter evidence and has now left the conversation.
My conclusions are that DeficitHawk was either a shill that knows full well the lies that the ministry of truth is pushing are simply propaganda, or he, like many "Progressives", has been brainwashed by the media for so long that the cognitive dissonance becomes overwhelming and they run away.
Where's Iwog? Where's Dan? Where's Marcus? Where are all of the progressives we have argued with over the years? Is there no champion of the left that will come and debate us?
I would like to have a very polite debate with some Democrats on patrick.net.

Well, I guess this is the end of the road for our discussion then.

Or an actor having fun playing a role. The giveaway was when he/she spoke of the Jan 6 protests as an insurgency masterminded by Trump.

He could have also been a psychological researcher or some such, probably funded by NSA or other intelligence agencies to investigate "fringe" forums and websites.

Well, whatever it was, it was QUITE pissed off I wouldn't accept a "news" article as evidence in the Derek Chauvin trial when I went through the work to find actual documents submitted from the coroner, and translated the cursive writing into text.
I don't believe it sincerely cared about being correct and may have been testing people's resilience to propaganda narratives.

By polite, I mean refraining from attacking the person in either direction, but sticking to points of argument instead. So no "You are a (whatever)" will not be allowed. The only appropriate use of "you" will be "Here you said..."
I just ran into an old guy in a cafe who pointed in the newspaper to the governor results in California, which added up to 110%. I said, "well, that's California" and so he accused me of being an "election denier". I asked if he'd seen "2000 Mules" and he said he hadn't "because it's been debunked". Uh, it's the same people who committed the election fraud who are claiming that "2000 Mules" was debunked.
Nor had he heard what was on Hunter's laptop, since he watches only corporate news.
I think I might have made a dent in his wall of denial, and I'd like to try with others.
