I know it's supposed to be a joke to expose the hypocrisy ... But I'm just too angry to laugh right now.
I figured you might as well laugh about it because the mainstream left
does not give one fucking damn about fairness. That's why you can't argue with most of them and why you can't try to shame them into doing something by dropping a pile of hypocrisy on the table.
They don't give a shit, and half of them probably get off on the power anyways. One of the biggest weaknesses in the Conservative argument is the plea for fairness, because Conservatives will go out of their way to try and level the playing field for damn near anyone, but whenever they ask for the same it's met with ridicule or outright dismissal.
It's an absolutely dead argument and it needs to be thrown out the window if you're dealing with someone so stubbornly partisan that they'll take any information that you give them, ignore it, and continue on with their circular arguments ad nauseam until those goalposts are shoved up the tailpipes of the goddamned Hubble. Hell it even happens on the Farms on a
routine basis. There are
several users that I've had the
exact, same argument with a half-dozen times over, and then a few days go by and they're back to square one.
They absorbed no information, they listened to none of the arguments, they took absolutely no counsel because they want to sit on their angry throne and be angry, and no amount of reassurances or rebuttals can pull their asses off the chair. They just want to sit there and yell about kids in cages, Russian collusion, pee-pee tapes and tax returns, so just let them shit themselves, it's a complete waste of breath to deal with someone like that.
The silver lining is that most people are not like this. Most people are not
rabidly devoted to politics in either direction and generally just want to be left the fuck out of politics altogether, and they're all sitting at home right now under the thumb of whatever local asshole has mandated they're not even allowed to so much as go outside and garden or go and hang out with their friends, or even visit family members who are in the hospital, and they're watching
all of these people waltz around on TV and do whatever the Hell they please, never bothering to wear a mask and never bothering to adhere to any concept of social distancing.
Most people are interested in fairness, and what they're seeing isn't fair. There's a
rage building up across the country, and we're going to see it manifest three months from now.
