    For what it’s worth, I see a screenshot of a post on X from a guy about a highly contraversial subject, and I am immediately skeptical. Somebody asking for a source, and not just another person talking about the source, is very reasonable.

    Getting immediately defensive about being asked for the source material makes me immediately question the integrity of the OP and much more inclined to believe it’s misinformation. Any reasonable person these days knows that even without lying, polling information can be distorted to say the exact opposite of what the poll actually suggests. “Do your own research” is also the motto of misinformation distributors.

    I’m very much against the Zionists, and am fully in support of Palestine against genocide, to be clear. But this whole interaction makes you seem disingenuous.
