Clap back politics don't provide anything

Clap back politics isn't for the opposition but for others on your side to gain a new perspective by pointing out the things people knew but couldn't put into words. It's a tool for our collective awareness. I wouldn't say it's useless.

So maybe it's not useless, because in this case it literally spread misinformation.

It's a tool that can be abused, just like with rhetoric. Instead, you could @ the OPs to modify their posts.
