Such as only looking at the things economists disagree on and ignoring the common knowledge they work from? Eg, saying some economists think free trade is bad for the economy is like saying some climatologists think global warming isn’t a thing. How much econ have you read?

Concerning 'Austrian' economics: The Mises Institute is like the Flat Earth Society, only for economics. With one exception: The Flat Earth Society has better evidence for their position.
