I don’t want to tell anyone how to post but replying to that account is very obviously speaking to hear yourself talk. Each reply serves to do nothing more than amplify their message. This is clearly not someone conversing in good faith.

I realize we don’t pay by the post but it should be apparent that being outraged by their schtick and all subsequent replies are detrimental to any type of intelligent discussion.

You’re not fighting the good fight, you’re not combating misinformation. You’re feeding the troll in the oldest sense of the term. Fill your boots but it’s the equivalent of smashing your own crotch with a hammer and then complaining that your balls hurt.
