pointing out hypocrisy is a compliment to those chuds
I mean, the argument back would just be “Rittenhouse knew it wasn’t a peaceful protest and planned accordingly” … both protests were left wing protests and both murders were committed by right wingers hoping they’d get an excuse to shoot someone.
Also - imo don’t try and find inconsistency in right wing talking points, they literally do not give a flying fuck about anything other than “winning” and would spit on their mother’s graves if someone told them she was a communist. Today they’ll say the sky is blue, tomorrow they’ll say it’s orange as long as it doesn’t mean agreeing with a leftist who also said it was blue.
Remember : without double standards, republicans would have no standards at all!
I’ve come to understand why the left is so bad at fighting the alt-right. There are no such things as conservative “principles”, but the left mainly fights by trying to point out hypocrisy as if these people had even an ounce of shame in their hearts.
The only way to win is not to abandon our principles in retaliation, but to fundamentally change the way we approach messaging. Forget about trying to convince any Republicans to not vote against their own interests with clever quips and screenshot of their old tweets - that shit won’t make a dent. What we need is somebody who talks about billionaires the same way Trump talks about immigrants. Someone bold enough to cross over into far left ideology, who will dominate the airwaves by generating outrage on the right faster than Trump could even dream.
Won’t happen though, not as long as the two party system is in the hands of the oligarchs.
Also, I wish /c/thisyou made a comeback.
Who did you check with?
I hate that everyone one of these fascists are here on the threadiverse making the same antiarm rhetorics.
You do bring guns anywhere you want, it’s your constitutional right.
Just aim at the fascists. They like to wear Trump pins, and MAGA hats.
Now they wear masks.
