“You’re Smarter Than That”

That is from three different people in three different forms when I said the 2020 election was not stolen. If somebody tells you that "you're smarter than that" as an argument that the election was indeed stolen, they are talking from the latest series of Trumpy talking points.

which probably sounded better in the original Russian.

You're smarter than that is "bless your heart" in Russian

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people with
limited competence in a particular domain overestimate their
abilities.

By saying someone is smarter than that is a retrograde argument
and is an ad hominem attack. Rather than counter with facts or
reasoning its a fallback to personal attack to discredit the other
sides argument.

So for 2020 after now 4+ years there has been no creditable proof
or evidence that was true and people have embarrassed themselves maintaining that falsehood.
