I agree, we're not going to get through to them on message boards and social media. I have a family member that's gone down the rabbit hole. The recently made a comment about offshore windmills causing whale beachings. A couple of winters ago when Texas's power grid went tits-up she repeated the nonsense about windmill failures being the problem. I informed them that those sources gave a max of 10% of Texas's energy they seemed surprised. All this nuttery they heard on Reich-wing angertainment radio of course.
