She’s not just a publicity-thirsty obstructionist determined to thwart the Democrats at every turn, she’s a wine-drinking triathlete determined to thwart the Democrats at every turn
THIS IS LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE SHOULD WANT AN ELECTED OFFICIAL TO DO
AXIOS: Senator Sinema, what are your policy goals?

SINEMA I refuse to telegraph my precise intentions

AXIOS: I find you fascinating

SINEMA: You’ll never figure me out!

AXIOS: A political genius; a true rebel

SINEMA: (swallows glass of wine in one gulp)
Oh, and I’ve wondered rhetorically multiple times who remains in Sinema’s corner after the year we’ve seen; Axios sheds no real light on this question despite using the word “allies” right there in the headline
To reiterate: Jesus Fudgeknuckling Christ

Unfortunately, we’re already split in two; just not by geography
news.yahoo.com/majority-trump…
The “nations” which exist in our minds are defined entirely by the perspectives through which we see the world.

One adheres mostly to observable facts; the other, an agenda-driven simulation in which Donald Trump is always right & everyone who contradicts him is a liar.
One nation acknowledges that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, and the Coronavirus is a very real threat best avoided by wearing masks, social distancing, and taking CDC-approved vaccines.

The other nation thinks every word of what I just said is a mainstream media conspiracy.

The “Hypocrisy Loophole” I describe in the following thread is a means for the Right to continue doing terrible things under the guise of “Both Sides Do It”, provided they can find one corroborating example on the Left.

SEE ALSO: #Whataboutism

Thread: ⬇️
It came up a lot during the “Kids in Cages” scandal. MAGAts found some sickening ways immigrants were treated in the Obama Administration & promptly concluded “That means we have to change precisely nothing.”

The policy is irrelevant; all that matters is immunity from criticism.
Republicans constantly use the Hypocrisy Loophole to justify:

- appalling sexist behavior, including but not limited to sexual assault
- refusal to take COVID vaccines
- the Jan. 6th insurrection

No efforts are made to change; their only goal is to point fingers & make excuses.

“Trump World” would be the worst theme park ever
IT’S A WORLD OF SHOUTING
A WORLD OF LIES

WHERE WE BLAME OBAMA
WHEN PEOPLE DIE

WE CAN ALL VENT OUR SPLEENS
ABOUT MASKS AND VACCINES

WE’RE IN TRUMP WORLD, AFTER ALL…

🎶
IT’S A WORLD OF HOPING
YOU’RE ALL IMPRESSED

WHERE MY TV RATINGS
MEAN I’M THE BEST

WHERE I NEVER CAN LOSE
IF I BLAME THE FAKE NEWS

YOU’RE IN TRUMP WORLD, AFTER ALL…

🎶

In a perfect world, what percentage of the student body would believe that COVID is mostly a hoax, masks are tyranny, the COVID vaccine is worthless and that Donald Trump was justified in the January 6th insurrection?

30%? 50%?

Because that is the Republican mainstream now.
“Ideological diversity” is an expression invented by conservatives to imply that opponents of their ideology are bigots.
Ideology is malleable. Nobody is born believing stupid shit & forced to live with it forever. Ideology is not a birth characteristic.

Many ideas get phased out of public discourse. But you can’t force people to make room for bad ideas just because some people still believe them.

(responding through bullhorn) BECAUSE DECADES OF REPUBLICAN GERRYMANDERING HAVE ASSURED THAT REPUBLICANS COMPRISE A FAR, FAR HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF CONGRESSMEN THAN THERE ARE REPUBLICANS IN THE OVERALL AMERICAN POPULATION
THE POINT IS THAT IT REALLY DOESN’T MATTER HOW POPULAR AN IDEA IS: WHAT TRULY MATTERS IS HOW MANY WHITE PEOPLE IN THE SO-CALLED HEARTLAND LIKE IT. YOU CAN DRESS IT UP IN LOFTY LANGUAGE, BUT THIS IS THE BASIC PHILOSOPHY BEHIND CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATION AND THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE
THE REPUBLICANS WHO DEFEND THIS SYSTEM CLING TO AN OUTDATED NOTION OF A CONGRESSIONAL “REPUBLIC” THAT NECESSARILY OVERRIDES DEMOCRACY IN FAVOR OF GEOGRAPHY. MIND YOU, THE 2020 ELECTION SHOWS HOW VERY LITTLE A “REPUBLIC” MEANS TO THEM WHEN THEY ARE UNHAPPY WITH THE END RESULT.

Apparently, the COVID vaccine is Not a True Scotsman
R: The COVID vaccine doesn’t count because it doesn’t work

D: What makes you say that

R: It doesn’t eliminate 100% of symptoms or 100% of transmission, and liberals just whine that not enough of us have taken it

D: That’s literally how all vaccines work

R: EXCUSES, I TELL YOU
R: If the vaccine works so well, why do you care if I take it

D: Because you live in a part of the country where relatively few people are vaccinated, and it does not appear to be a coincidence that you are surrounded primarily by people who share your political orientation
