You're not wrong, but your aggressive wording will surely alienate anyone who otherwise would've had a chance of learning something new or changing their mind. People don't generally respond well to snark nor a condescending tone.

And this is a real issue, because companies and fascists are good at telling relatable stories to win people to their side. If we want to have any chance at fighting back, we must utilize the same tools they're using, instead of calling people stupid and thus driving them away.
