That’s not what they do they. They listen, then think of the sound bite that negates what they just heard. They are like these LLM AI’s except it’s not large. They over fit everything negative to either go into the bucket of lies or contort it until they can over fit into the genius bucket. They lack any grey.

It’s why they are a cult.

It’s no different than discussing science with young earth creationist.

The method is the same for both but to say there is not listening or thinking involved is inaccurate. The human mind does not require congruent thought.
