That is an underhanded manipulation tactic BTW. And I am guessing the alternate information sources you provided to your friends go unsearched/unread? And they haven't changed their leanings because of bias and programming.
The only point I am making here is that debate can never happen here because all we do is push our opinions which we get from biased sources. Actually more to the reality, nobody bothers to post the sources they get their biased confirmation/validation from in the first place.
Some newcomers here will, as always, just opine, mudsling and insult...it is what it is. It can never be referred to as debate in any way, shape or form.
From what I am seeing of infighting with Trump supporters and MAGA, the great divide is getting bigger and bigger each day.
What you see as infighting I see as hashing it out or what I like to call it openly debating the issues. I know you would never call it a debate based on the definition of professional debate. You complain of mudslinging while slinging mud so you too enjoy the debates in these forums. As for sources of truth a good start is by providing the proof, just like in real math. Having undeniable evidence that can be tested and verified. A good example of this would be the Hunter Biden laptop, hard evidence completely verifiable yet completely dismissed as an attempt to fool or deceive the public to cover up actual criminal activities because of political biases.
