12. If insisting on facts and evidence is an "attack"

Don't you think that requires a reconsideration of one's position? If you're holding a position where logic and evidence feel like a negative for the ideas you hold, are those really good ideas to hold then?

(And you've responded in tons of these threads just fine. No need to call out others for same)

I do not want misinformation, false hope, conspiracy theorizing, or narrative over truth to take hold in my party. We just spent four years going after Republicans for this stuff, where they "feel" 2020 wasn't right.

This isn't even kind of hard to understand why this stuff needs to be pushed back against and given zero quarter.

"That's bad . . . unless I do it" isn't an admirable life philosophy to aspire to.
