How do you really engage with an opinion that is effectively based in fiction any better than people already did when the person doesn't seem to understand that?
Like, if someone thinks Joe Biden being President is an example of the "extreme left" being in power and enacting policies that serve as the ying to the yang of Trump and what we're seeing now, how do you even begin to address that? It represents a completely fundamental misunderstanding of politics and what's happening.
I guess to be charitable, maybe EE just did a poor job of communicating his opinion on this matter. But taken at face value, it just sounds like someone drowning in right wing propaganda that normalizes right wing extremism by positioning moderate Democratic policies as the other side of the same coin.
