So, the race is basically already decided but there is a conspiracy among the media and polling companies to make it look like the race is actually close and that there are undecides. Of course, the only way to prove this wrong would be with polls, but we’ve conveniently already just rejected that evidence. Very convenient.

Ah yes, our oh-so-accurate polls.

A couple of things.
First, your link is outdated: fivethirtyeight.com/…/2022-election-polling-accur…
Yes, 2020 was a bad year, but last year was actually a very good year. Basically what you are saying is that “4 years ago polls were bad, so that allows me to just believe whatever I want.”
Second, if you believe you have no metric by which to measure something, the correct thought is “I’m not sure what the answer is” not “what I think is true must be true.”
Plus, don’t believe it was missed that you just outright ignored the whole part of your post that this is some conspiracy, of course thrown out there with zero evidence.

How on Earth am I saying that?
Have you met the average Fox viewer?
Conservative media not giving a shit about the truth isn’t a conspiracy theory, it’s a fact. Hence Fox having to pay a billion dollars to Dominion.

Sorry I got it wrong. What exactly are you saying with that point?
What does the average Fox viewer have to do with you and your point?
Wait, now we are just talking about conservative media? I thought we were talking about the media wanting you to think there was actually a race?
