Thank you for summarising how I feel about the debates.
I sometimes go to respond to the more extreme takes and then think, haven't I said this before? And wouldn't they already know this?
The ability to counter misinformation is so diminished now. Everyone can just stand on either side holding up signs that summarise their views and leave it at that.
