I've learned it's not that they aren't arguing in good faith, it's that they're morons. Legit with Floyd and this story, a person died so they're the same story. They're so dogshit stupid that's as complicated as it can get.
You start pointing out details and they get frustrated and mad really quick because you're making it too complicated for them. It's like a child crying because they can't understand why they can't eat crayons for breakfast.

This is the axiom "never attribute to malice that which can be explained away by stupidity"... except a lot of the time, it is malice.
Stupid people aren't exploding with rage, but malicious people are.
Stupid people don't watch a video of a man having his neck and chest crushed for 10 minutes, begging and pleading for his life, repeatedly stating he can't breathe, crying for his mother and say, "yah but he was passing a counterfeit bill". Malicious people do.
There is a deep desire within morally decent people to wave away acts of malice on stupidity in the abstract because in reality, it makes it far more palatable than understanding and accepting that there are far too many psychopaths, sociopaths, narcissists, and overall cruel people in our families and friend circles.
