Who am I kidding, the USA populace always immediately obtains critical thinking capabilities the moment someone tries to trick them into being nice (and then magically loses them once the “threat” is gone)
No, making things up to trick libs never ends well. They won’t understand that you’re just trying to get them to be less gullible, they will take it as an insult and dismiss everything you’ve said regardless of whether it is true or not.
I’ve always wondered what the death toll from the Great Depression would be if you used the same methodology that yields the high estimates for the Chinese famine.
But to answer your question, no, they’ll ignore any point you could ever make along those lines.
Can this strategy be turned back on them?
