Wrong answer.
You don’t start a debate on the technicalities of an absurdity, because the other side isn’t interested in a good faith discussion.
You shut it down completely, you call them what they are: stupid, gullible morons who need to keep their mouth shut since they can’t cobble together a coherent thought, or even outright traitors that need to be hanged.
Anything less is giving ground for free.
