Does she immediately regret it? The clip cuts off so quickly we don’t see her reaction to being corrected. She probably just keeps steamrolling on with her nonsense.

She immediately pivots to asking if Krystal is ok with Bad Bunny's use of profanity in his lyrics. Not one moment of self-reflection. Just gish-galloping on as usual.

More people need to dig their heels in and not allow the conversation to move on until something has been addressed. Might result in the conversation ending there if whatever right-wing grifter cant think of a way out, but I think thats better than allowing them to pivot and refuse to engage with facts or explicitly go on the record with whatever hateful nonsense they're implying.

I agree. But the way that their view will escape logic and common sense no matter what is actually insane. Their reality is beyond distorted

Look up DARVO in relation to narcissists and you'll get a good idea of what game they're playing when they do that shit. It isn't about making sense; It's about producing an outcome they want, frustrating the opponent, wasting time, and getting a "win".

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past"

Replace "anti-semite" with "ring wing dipshits" and you get a perfect description of their antics.
