For whatever reason this kind of campaign tactic had zero effective counter amongst the general electorate. This messaging won. Refuting it was left to the internet forums.

How can you refuse this. It quickly turns into a "no u" situation.

by design! turns out if you just project hard enough, the only possible argument is a “no u” situation. and actually taking that position officially has been a bridge too far for any credible opposition up to now.

It’s because social media is toxic.

Look at the view counts below conservative posts. That is why there is no counter; the game is rigged.
