Is that a conversation you had or a summary of what you’ve read about your political opponents on the internet?

ok, let's be real-

"Hi, what's the issue?" -Me

"I believe the 2020 election was stolen, I read it on X internet source plus foxnews has been reporting on it, and everyone I know says it" - Person

"Well how do you know they aren't lying?" - Me

"How do you know they aren't, I also trust my friends and family, read this random news article from suspicious site" - Person

"Do you think we should punish people who spread false information" -Me

"No, freedom of speech, also I still believe the 2020 election was stolen. If Democrats are just going to steal elections that means my vote doesn't count and I'm not really in a democracy, this justifies civil war" - Person

I think we all know the answer to this
