Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I encounter people here and there who are victims of rightwing propaganda, and they'll spout out some things that I know are probably wrong but I don't have any specific knowledge about so I can't say much. So I look it up when I get the chance but it's way past the conversation so it's too late to say anything. I'm not sure how to deal with these situations, any thoughts?
I recommend watching episodes of the "Alt-right Playbook" series on YT, it's smart. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJA_jUddXvY7v0VkYRbANnTnzkA_HMFtQ
Underlying advice, understanding how "they" think helps you navigate the dialogue / rhetorics at play. I'm not saying you'll have interesting discussions with "them", but it will alleviate frustrations
Thanks for the recommendation!
