Time to collect my paycheck I guess ๐

I had a conversation with a "Democrats betrayed us on Gaza" account, during which time it started to seem pretty likely to me they they couldn't speak Arabic but were pretending that they could. That was pretty interesting. Instead of being able to speak on the Arabic details we were talking about, they started dissembling into a pattern of (1) hostility (2) accusing me of being the person in the wrong because I am bad (3) randomly changing the subject, making nonsensical statements, and insisting that they were right. Sort of like these examples:

If you start looking closely, it's only a small number of accounts that tend to "argue" in that very particular way, and they almost all have the same particular political views. I wonder why.
I don't think it's a small number of accounts that argue that way. It's typical of all online users when they are wrong and don't have a response.
It's common to lash out when embarrassed, especially toward the thing you perceive caused the embarrassment.
I don't think that's a political indicator, it's just an indicator that it's human (or at least trained on human interactions, especially online interactions)
Just more evidence to push towards "they are targeting places as fringe as lemmy now" conclusion in our previous conversation.
