I used to love getting in these arguments but I've really lost steam.

At some point you have to accept that most people have no interest in facts and have never read a book in their life so it's pointless correcting them.

I like how these people just latch onto one bit of info and completely refuse to update their mental model when presented with new info.

National socialists? Ah Nazi's must have been left wing. Mussolini was a socialist? Ah must mean that fascism is a left wing ideology! No more analysis is needed because this fits my preconceived biases that left wing = worst wing.

I kinda want to see an entire review show based off of this idea, with a group of experts locked behind a 1 way mirror forced to listen.

Animal farm is a book about animal agriculture, its right there in the title. NEXT!

Fortunate son is a song about how lucky we are to be Americans, obviously.

Asking a conservative to explain what they think makes someone left-wing or liberal is one of my favorite games to play.
