You should have said "sure buddy" and ignored them.

The problem is they will then keep spreading misinformation.

What even are those?

Apple helped spread that misinformation. So why would I hold some of their stock if I am trying to counter it?

No, I want companies to stop spreading this bullshit and for people to stop falling for it. I don't hold any stocks at all. In fact that kind of bullshit I am fairly against.

Obviously it depends on the situation but sometimes it is worth talking to idiots not because you have any chance of changing their mind but just demonstrate to everyone else in the thread that they are in fact an idiot. Just in case somebody thinks they have a point.
