> And I understand that debunking low-effort accusations is asymmetric warfare

Is the comment even that unfair? Asserting that it will never pay off because the presentation avoided mentioning anything about the payoff might be a little bit cynical, but not terribly so. It could be fairly presumed that if the project is a clear economic win, they would be proudly bragging about it; and the opposite presumption is also reasonably fair, even if it turns out to be wrong.

And what does such cynicism have to do with "MAGA"? That asserted association seems much worse than the initial cynical assertion.

"Everyone i don't like is Hitler". It's a rather immature way of disagreeing.

There is a KYM page about this phenomenon: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/everyone-i-dont-like-is-hitle...
