On a WeChat Canadian Expat group, a Covidian said that a Skeptic was spreading misinformation and as well got all their information from YouTube. This is funny because YouTube has been deleting "misinformation." So an ignorant thing for a Covidian to say.
Why do Covidians use this term "misinformation."? Is it a way of identifying themselves as Covidian? Do they think the term is more refined to use than "not true"? Is it another slippery term they like to use like "hate crime" or "white nationalist" or "racist"?
Why do Covidians use ad hominem attacks in arguments even after it has been pointed out to them that they are doing so and that it isn't an effective way to debate? Skeptics are being called racists, white nationalists, selfish, deniers, babies and Covidiots.
I heard a Canadian reporter say that she couldn't understand what the truckers convoy was protesting. (This reporter, trying to appear impartial used the term "discredited" in her reportage. The use of "discredited" is a left wing trope. No impartial reporter would use it.). At least, she admitted her misunderstanding.
