Are they quiet?

I hear cheering from somewhere...

[–] Doomsider 8 points 7 hours ago

Your forget it is their unelected bureaucrat.

Brought to you by the it is okay as long as our side does it crowd.

[–] finder585 12 points 9 hours ago

Well you see, Obama and Biden used unelected bureaucrats to destroy the country. On the other hand, Trump is fine because he will save us and fix everything.

(Honest to God, that is the TLDR of a conversation with some of my relatives)

every accusation is a confession to them

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 hours ago

Republicans & Conservatives would constantly cry, "They're destroying the _______."

The government? They're just really in love with the government, this is what they're known for?

No. The answer to that fill-in-the-blank is, "They're destroying the COUNTRY." Government /= country, it's not even fucking close. This reminds me of when I'm "quoted" but they change the words. 😂 Changing words changes the whole context, usually to make me look worse & their arguments (artificially) look better.

Why would they complain? They literally voted for this

Now, what "this" actually is, depends on the point of view

They cried wolf to clear the way for the real deal.

What a succinct way of putting it. Tbh I suspect they may have done the same thing with calling the 2020 election "rigged" after the recent allegations about election fraud.

[–] NikkiDimes 15 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

It's only rigged if their guy loses.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

If you cheat and lose the only logical conclusion is they cheated more or better but they had to have cheated.

Where are the conservative conspiracy theorists who talked about Obama putting us in FEMA death camps? Where were they when we actually had refrigerated trucks full of corpses in NYC?

Projection is gonna project

Accusation = confession. It seems like it's always true...

[–] Zachariah 31 points 1 day ago

they were just jealous

[–] [email protected] 18 points 23 hours ago

Every accusation is an admission, and diluting meaningful dialogue is entirely the point.

Only good faith interlocutors care about hypocrisy.

[–] Donkter 15 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

They blamed a shadowy, undefined "deep state" that was able to morph and change to be blamed for every single thing they felt was wrong with their life that has nothing to do with government.

Now they have brash public unelected officials who publicly do everything they can to undermine the government and it turns out when you can define what these people are doing it's easier to ignore or make excuses for them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago

Well they did deliver on getting rid of the deep state, now it's just shallow / completely above water state doing all the bullshit

Yes, they reference him on quite a few occasions on their various shows

Holy shit this makes Rob even more based

Something something in-group laws protects but does not bind.

As long as it’s their guy doing the hurting of people it’s a good thing! /s

[–] UnderpantsWeevil 3 points 19 hours ago

Safety protects but does not bind.

Tyranny binds but does not protect.
