I find it interesting that "not shouting" seems to be an argument for the right. I've recently taken a bit of time to read through some right wing think tanks, from the laughably simplistc PragerU to the slightly more sophisticated AEI to the academic writing style of Cato.
One thing they all have in common is the aesthetics of rationality. Of, "unlike the left, we like to have discussions rationally". They don't ever engage the left, and any of their points are easily disproven, but repeating them ad-nauseam while seeming to be reasonable (no matter if you are) seems to be sufficient to a large number of people.
No wonder those trying to counter this propaganda get tired and seem patronizing to those that just enjoyed a nice fireside chat with Dennis Prager about how the left despises free speech.
