No I mean by swarming them with claims on claims and giving them no room to try and argue back
What was it Innuendo Studios called it? “Always Be Attacking”? Just constantly be pushing and attacking and never even acknowledge something they say just keep pushing them into the corner until they slip and start trying to explain
The correct response to a Gish Gallop isn’t a Gish Gallop of your own, it’s to keep to one subject at a time. Don’t let them throw a thousand claims at you; if they do, only acknowledge one and work through it until the conversation is finished, no matter how many times or how provocatively they try to lead you to a dozen dead-end points that they have no intention of defending in good faith.
It’s like how Fox works. It’s so easy to spin and spew nonsense. It’s easy to play on anger and rage. It’s harder to create thoughtful information and analysis. It’s hard and boring to appeal to someone’s analytical mind.
They’ll ignore it or justify it with some us atrocity or another. Sometimes it’s fun to ask silly questions instead of actually engaging. Like how has Russia lost a quarter of its boats to a country with no navy? Why does the kerch bridge keep blowing up? What happened to your su-57s? Why do oil depots hundreds of miles past the border kept exploding? How many operational U-50s are left?
I’m curious why they haven’t been knocking the bridge out more routinely
Making Russia spend the resources on reopening that lifeline to Crimea seems like a pretty good way to relieve pressure on the front lines, plus it’s not like they can choose to not repair the bridge because that means moving their entire supply train into much closer range.
It wouldn’t work. Its way harder to debunk claims than it is to make them because the debunker is required to provide proof.
If the debunkers claims are not credible then you just end up with twice as much spam under every post

It’s called the asymmetry of bullshit.
