Tl;dr:
Additional repetition of Hillary is a Warmonger.
See above summary. See your future comments history.
All consistent with my claim.
For example, Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War prays using fake Bible verses from Pulp Fiction, in support of what he is selling as a holy War.
For normal people, the visceral response to Pete Hegseth trying to sell some Christian Nationalist bullshit, in conjunction with the President posting memes of himself as Christ, is to want to get them out of power quick fast and in a hurry.
But not you. You see the same reality and go: This calls for complaining about an old Democrat.
As long as you don't an good argument disproving my point, I will keep repeating it
Still waiting for the proofs
Did I ever defended him? I know Pete is a nazi and war mongers and he is also incompetent. I still remember him unable to even keep classified information private . I compared Trump to Hitler multiple time
I talk badly about politicians from both side, while you can only condemn . This literally like the fifth goddamn time I said something along that line in this post but again cultists like you love to ignore things that doesn't fit your narrative
False. No action on my part will stop you.
Again, in keeping with my thesis.
Actually no action my my part will stop you for claiming that I try to sabotage dems chance of winning
Nonsense.
When your whataboutism stops, my criticism of your actions (I'd go after anyone else doing that shit) will just evaporate.
If your initial post and comments were all about We need AOC, and/or All AIPAC candidates need to be replaced, you'd have support instead.
Whataboutism is hypocrites like you're favorite word. There's no whataboutism about holding all politicians the same when they use the same rhetoric. When Hillary claimed Iran was seeking a nuke without proof, she was wrong; when Trump says the same thing, he is wrong.
So you want me to only keeps about the good democrats? You are proving again that you think like a cultist , you don't want people to criticize the warmonger on your side only about the warmonger on the other side. I am sorry but I will keep condemn bad people no matter what is their affiliation and praise them when they do something good.
Tl;dr: The Democrats are just as bad as the Republicans! See? Look how similar they are!
Whataboutism
It's not a favorite word. It's an accurate one.
An accurate word for what you're doing is strawmanning
Tl;dr: I will do what I can to discourage democrats from voting.
No, you'll increase the volume and quantity of Democrats Bad/Just as Bad/Whatabout Hilary rhetoric.
You will do so with passion. No one, and no thing will stop you.
Maximal engagement regarding who isn't in power, Minimal engagement about the current atrocities being committed by the current regime.
It's what you have been doing, and what you will continue to do.
