I tried it a few times recently when I’ve been down in the trenches of shitposting and it is very funny to make them try to explain their argument to you as if you have no idea what they’re saying. It’s so easy to bait them into thinking they’re about to bring up this amazing dunk about how China banned Winnie the Pooh or whatever and win you over, and then you get to just tell them that’s not true because you just looked it up plus now it feels racist.

Doing it irl gets people either confused you're not as brainwashed as them, or they get extra mad and they think you're baiting them into saying something more racist or unhinged. Really funny stuff.

Racist and unhinged people will say something more racist or unhinged anyway because that is how they are as a person
