Do we have a defense against "swift boat/e-mails" tactics?

 
I haven't seen one yet. Kerry and Hillary behaved in the best ways possible. Kerry taught us that you shouldn't just ignore them. Hillary taught us that keeping your cool while not ignoring didn't work either. Biden has yet to be really hit. Wait for the senate trial. Maybe showing genuine emotion will work. Nothing else has.

What's going to become of democracy if all the opposition had to do is make up something and repeat it over and over?

Ideas?

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

What's going to become of democracy if all the opposition had to do is make up something and accuse the President of doing it to remove him from office to overturn the election results they can't accept?

Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

You ought to know, it is a democrat / progressive tactic. Wait till our side decides to use it on the next dimocrat that gets elected.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

You can learn a lot about what leftists are thinking or doing by what they suspect conservatives think, will do, etc.

When you have to try to denigrate facts you don't want to hear or be heard as "swift-boat tactics", the problem is not with the facts.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
