It's not deflection, my post is literally saying we aren't immune to propaganda.

But, also that, not being 100% doesn't really give a free pass for people to repeatedly regurgitate easily debunk-able bullshit multiple times. I don't give Vaush or Destiny or Jordan Peterson fans a pass just because some hypothetical version of myself maybe would have fallen for those hucksters too. If we follow this logic to it's maxim I think you just end up at hard determinism. We can't really judge anyone for anything, that Neo-Nazi only ended up that way cuz his mom made him oatmeal instead of eggs one breakfast and that set off a chain of events that inevitably lead to him reading too much Stonetoss.
