Hey frenz,
Does anyone have any good memes or research on how confusing & incorrect the media & deep state have been about the Pandemic?
More specifically, how much they’ve gotten wrong since “two weeks to slow the spread.”

Eh...
The Socratic method isn't supposed to be used to persuade. It's supposed to be used to understand.
In other words, if I'm asking you questions about your beliefs using the Socratic method, my goal is to understand YOUR argument.
The goal is not to make you feel stupid. The goal is not to convince you that you're wrong or that my argument is better. It's to understand the shape of your argument completely.
Some people misconstrue it as combative because someone who uses the Socratic method doesn't HAVE a position (and therefore can seem annoying). They will adopt any position they need to in order to test someone else's beliefs, including contradictory positions.
Socrates was famously known for not taking any real positions in his debates, and taking hypocritical positions all the time, because he wanted to see how someone's belief system responded to challenges from all possible angles in order to better understand it. Socrates was not looking to beat anyone in a debate; he wanted to walk away with a more complete picture of the person he was talking to.
