OK, checking on that it is actually a couple years old:

But it is from this poster who claims:
Quote:
Close, I have a very conservative friend who wants to discuss politics often, often by linking reddit threads and going from there. I sometimes post his most ridiculous takes so that the internet can tear him a new one.
I use some of the smarter and more nuanced replies when I try to re-engage him with previous discussions. Problem is the right-wing outrage/misinformation machine moves so fast it's like he's got a memory of a gold fish. There's a reason the most prominent voices on the right generate daily content as opposed to the left where the best content creators post at best monthly.
It's quite frustrating he won't even remember saying this stuff or the insanity of the points he makes. Kinda surreal to see the post on selfawarewolves though. I think I'm gonna stop posting his hot takes.

So it seems it is something his friend said. True words or not, it illustrates the depth of the dumb, because this is exactly the problem they run into when thy have to provide sources for their BS.
