Kinzinger is a cunt as much as Tucker is a cunt. But he's not wrong to see the futility in it.

Going on Fox/CNN/MSNBC is not a debate stage and you are not talking to good faith actors. They get to cut you off, shout you down, laugh off any good points you make and kick you out as they say fit. It's really easy for them to make you look bad and themselves good.

If we wanted to be serious about echo chambers, we would recognize that using deliberate, shady techniques designed to discredit counter-arguments is equally part of the problem as refusing to debate people who disagree with you in the first place.

I liked how he lead with "Russia being provoked is a lie." when we all know that was widely accepted until 3 weeks ago. The old video that resurfaced of Joe Biden saying it publicly in the 90s was just tremendous.

Because when people jump in, in the middle of something with no context and are looking for a "gotcha" I have no interest in holding their hand.

Any Canadian with a first grade reading level knows what these free trade agreements have done to the middle and lower class.
