It's behavior, not the subtext used that determines the act. It's pretty stale, textbook trolling by means of derailing.

I don't respond when I see propositions put forth easily disproved by facts, links and civics repeatedly to a poster. I've stopped doing the work for such posters, as it takes considerable time, such as the last one that got dozens of rebuttals.

That was just one instance of this. The poster did not respond to most of the answers, nor admit to the error, which might be understandable from being a bit embarrassed or confused, despite doubling down.

But jumped to another thread to spread the same misinformation gathered from RW memes. That said quite a bit about him. He had recieved a well deserved thrashing, as delicately doled out as the truth can be safely administered.

I'm glad you're capable of doing so within the bounds of civility, after a while, I just want to say:
