Hey Anons.

I need your help.

I got this super woke co-worker who thinks he's the smartest person alive.

Whenever we disagree on something he bombards me with articles that supports his arguments.

For example, we recently discussed the Spanish Flu and the finding that most didn't die from the flu, but bacterial pneumoni and that I had heard it attributed to the excessive mask use. To which he found 3 different articles written by the NIH cherry picking statements from those articles to 'debunk' my statement. The articles are long and I don't have time to read them while we are discussing the issue. But when I later go through and read the articles i find out that the cherrypicked parts of the articles, put in the correct context doesn't say what he claims and often the exact opposite.

As forexample with the Spanish Flu mask example, NIH was quick to admit that they didn't know what caused the deaths, but it definitely wasn't the mask they claim based on nothing but quotes from "experts" who finds the notion 'unlikely'.

I need to figure out how to fight against his information overload tactic because it drives me insane that I keep losing arguments to that fuckhead only to later find out that he was at best ignorant and at worst a lying manipulative asshole.

You're not wrong it's just hard to come to terms with.

>Anon, don't argue with a liberal. It is an exercise in futility and insanity.

He's not a 'liberal' (whatever that means anymore

…) he's a self-proclaimed Anarcho-Communist.

And don't get me started on how contradictory that ideology is. Kek.

But you're right.

>Let him see and feel that you love him

I don't. He's a fucking asshole.

As a non-believer i feel no obligation to love anyone.

You're both right.

I just need to figure out how to avoid these discussions with him then. That's easier than it sounds…

If by

>Love your friend

you mean, show him basic professional courtesy, i am.

That is all he gets though. So that I can keep my job.

He's not my friend. He's a co-worker.

I don't care if he changes, I see him as a lost cause. I just wanted to destroy his 'safe-space' worldview.

But as you and the other anon pointed out, it is an exercise in futility and no matter how much I feel he deserves it, the only winning move is not to play.

Thanks for your input though o7

There are no women on the internet.

>would have put him on work discussions only status long ago

You think I willingly engage that asshole? Kek.

No, the asshole just decides to join in.

>>19663702

Correct.

The point of contention was wether the masks played a role in the excessive number of deaths as they, as I argued, when worn for long periods of time inocculates the bacteria in your mouth and nose as you cannot get rid of them as you usually would.

It's also important to point out that I wasn't making a statement of fact but speculation to which he felt the need to inject himself to debunk.

>the primary cause was still the spanish flu virus

Not according to NIH and lord Fauci himself:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2599911/

"The majority of deaths in the 1918–1919 influenza pandemic likely resulted directly from secondary bacterial pneumonia caused by common upper respiratory–tract bacteria. Less substantial data from the subsequent 1957 and 1968 pandemics are consistent with these findings."

Wow… that was faggy.

You know that's not what I meant, if you read the sentences preceding what you quoted.

You can join my faggot anarcho-communist co-worker in his asshole 'safe-space'
