Uh, no. Take climate change and evolution - there are heaps of hard evidence sane people can point to on these issues, which wingnuts counter with nothing but theocratic herp-derp and lysenkoism. That’s why the tweet Alouette posted is filled with DERP, because the questions that nitwit thinks destroy “liberal” arguments actually destroy those of wingnuts.

That’s not what I mean. You’re right that strong evidence exists to support evolution, far stronger than the evidence for any other explanation for speciation. That’s why I believe in evolution myself. But most people don’t know about much of the evidence and do not know how to use the evidence they do have to full effect. So they aren’t able to argue the case for evolution effectively.

Another issue is that the sheer monomania of a wingnut (or moonbat) sometimes wins arguments all by itself. The wingnut simply DERPs out talking points till other people simply either drop the topic or give the wingnut some level of agreement out of frustration. Here at LGF we don’t have that problem most of the time, because monomaniacal posters typically fall afoul of Charles and/or Stinky and then get booted.
