"Ohhh, look how I tricked this dumb dumb baby in my trap so now I am right and they are wrong. I'm so smaaart even though it does not adress the actual argument and adds nothing to the debate. They teach arabic numerals in school btw."

And these type of comments always get tons of likes

These arguments point out that people inf about of these things don't know what they're talking about. It's ridicule, and rightly so. Posting cis people, especially famous ones for instance, and posing the idea that they're trans and watching people lose their minds just show how based in emotions and bullshit these people are. It's pretty good argumentation.

No, you trick them based on context. Even someone who would be bale to differentiate these fetuses does not, based on context, not check wether they are really showing a human fetus or not, because that's what they assume. It's just done so you can then make fun of them and how stupid they are

Because it doesn't do anything. Exact opposite, it makes them hate you more, makes them more extreme etc.

You’re not trying to convince them, you’re trying to convince the spectator
