You know what, that's a fair take. I suppose I've been keeping up with this stuff more than the average bear, so connections that may seem obvious to me may not be to people who don't have that same knowledge base.

I suppose the annoyed feeling comes from folks who have been keeping up with this stuff who feel like they have to keep proving that grifters like Steve Bannon are using words as weapons to gain power instead of standing by anything. Proof of right wing grifters being fascists keeps popping up, so it feels like playing whack a mole whenever someone asks for proof.
