Listen guys. You are never going to hold a reasonable debate with shills/trolls. When someone is obviously a troll....you must troll them back. That"s correct...the right needs to learn to troll. It means not answering their questions with real responses. It means posting memes or facts that having nothing to do what they are talking about. It means making fun of what they say or the fact that they fat-fingered the screen. They are playing games not trying to have a discussion.

The reason to debate is not to convince the person you are talking to. If they are arguing to appease their ego or cognitive dissonance, they are most likely not going to be convinced no matter what. Offering counter arguments is for everyone else who comes along. That is why you should debate in earnest and offer evidence. This is about everyone, not the one person being obstinate.
Even there though, there may come a time, after their ego is no longer on the line, when the evidence you have offered may come into their mind and cause them to think, and ask questions. That also is a reason to offer the evidence, even to the most obstinate.
The GA is the long game. it is a counter programming operation. We have to deal with ego's, cognitive dissonance and deep rooted programs created by The Matrix. Expecting a short term victory against someone who is programmed is not the way. The GA counter program operation is a chipping away with a fine chisel. It is not a sledge hammer operation (not counting the upcoming "Scare event").
