Your counter-points aren't exactly award-worthy either. Aggressive federal prosecution does not usually result in suicide. The argument doesn't "desperately" do anything, much less avoid a conversation. It is distinguishable from arguments about COVID-19 deaths as they are completely different subjects. Sure, you could say it's not a nuanced argument at all, but that doesn't make it face-palmingly bad, it just makes it plain. I've seen better retorts on Facebook, frankly.
