look Bush never had any riots to do it!

What's that? He did? Oh it was literally called the Brooks Brothers Riot? Oh the republicans who put it together called it that? Oh it actually worked unlike a bunch of idiot chuds wandering around the capital shouting "TURMP"?

i recall the extremely smart people of D+D telling us that of course the democrats will use their brief political majority to push through voting rights reform. it was the only sensible thing to do, unless they didn't really want to be in power as a group.

Neither Nixon nor George W Bush are actually comparable to the president attempting to overturn their losing election. Stop.

Well yeah, they succeeded.

It's funny how they forget this one weird trick that the Bush Bros. did to successfully overturn an election, and now mass murderer, George Bush, is a liberal hero.

all four of these are true what the gently caress



I'm pretty sure both the first and third options are true



* the first one is false only because it's not hidden from the public

* the second one is false because it didn't stop in the 1970s

* AIDS being spread around on purpose is actually true

https://twitter.com/NestPasUnPsyop/status/1442726657001865222

* no comment on #4



The problem with the second option is that it only examines the question from the standpoint of deniers saying that there were fewer, or even no, Jewish people killed in the Holocaust, as opposed to the other deliberate misdirection of only ever mentioning Jewish people as being the victims of the Holocaust in order to bury the record of communists, socialists, the Roma, the LGBT, and so on.

I'm old enough to remember when Dubya was the second coming of Hitler and the greatest threat to democracy to ever exist and a singularly unique threat.

In 20 years, the same libs saying the same thing about Trump will be hooting and cheering for him while he squaredances with Alyssa Milano.

secondly so they're saying all of the hosed up insane poo poo the CIA does isn't because they're a rogue organization but because they act at the behest of the president. so like how do you reconcile that and also Obama and Biden are decent human beings

The question is why does it matter that there are US Troops in Taiwan. Does Russian troops being on the Chinese border matter too? Taiwan asked for and allows the US to be there because they feel its critical to their stability as a separate entity from China, which is what it is. Not an arm of the PRC or China, and hasn't been for 70 years.

Idaho Republicans are trying to influence Democrats and Independents to register as Republicans to vote in the May primary in hopes of "rescuing" the state from far-right groups and candidates.

And it's going to work. "Please become a republican, we're full of nazis, and that's bad." is a better message than the democrats are giving people.
