But it was relevant. The comment I was replying to was saying “Republicans are bad,” so I just chimed in with “they’re all bad.”
And I’m not defending anyone. Neocons are just as bad as neolibs. My point is that we shouldn’t be so quick to believe proven liars just because they’re saying things we like to hear.
Hilarious! That’s some quality irony - falsely accusing me of using a strawman by using a strawman yourself. Comedy gold, my friend. Comedy gold.
Also hilarious is the thought that someone having a different opinion from you must be either arguing disingenuously or an idiot. I’m sure you considered that my differing opinion might’ve been shaped by life experiences that differ from yours, but you smartly deduced that such a thing is impossible. Bravo. Your mother must be so proud of you.
I guess you’ve got alt accounts downvoting for you. Disgusting that you idiots came from reddit just to do the exact same shit here.
You’re arguing disingenuously by suggesting “both sides” (yeah I get you didn’t use the same words but it doesn’t matter monkey, your message is the same) use the same strategies when they very clearly do not.
Yes, both sides lie. No they do not lie in the same ways. You can keep downvoting me on your alt accts, I don’t really care.
Okay, you can stop with the strawmen. It’s not really funny a second time.
I never said anything about both sides “lying in the same ways.” Of course they employ different tactics; they have different target demographics.
Also, alt accounts? Really? That’s the first place your mind goes? I’ve downvoted you twice - when you started being insulting and stopped contributing to the conversation (your last two replies).

Well your “chiming in” included a strawman, a strawman that suggests liberals and conservatives lie the same way.
They don’t, and the differences between the two are so obvious you’d either have to be arguing disingenuously or you’re an idiot.
You were coming to the defense of conservatives the same way the others of your ilk do. “BuT bOtH sIdEs”.
