I'm pretty convinced that Trump is desperate to have his own 9/11. Or more accurately, his own 9/12, where everybody says "yes our president is an idiot but we all need to rally under him in unity".

Handsome Ralph posted:Whataboutism is saying "I know we're all talking about X, but what about..." which is what that article is doing. It's not inherently wrong but in most cases it seems to be. Whataboutism is a way of dismissing something bad by comparing it to something else. In this case, whataboutism would be saying that this shooting isn't a big deal because the one in Norway was worse. In the article they're not trying to dismiss the gravity of this shooting, but rather pointing out that more qualifiers need to be added to "the deadliest mass shooting in US history" because it's just not accurate.

M_Gargantua posted:Hey, could have made the headline: "America continues to be terrible, we've been murdering Indians and protestors for decades" Consider that, by saying that this was the deadliest shooting in US history, all the other worse massacres are being dismissed, minimized, or forgotten. And it really doesn't send a good message when most of those worse massacres happened to not white people. There's nothing stupid about pointing out facts.

The Iron Rose posted:I find it simultaneously ironic and revealing that Manning's ilk call the protection of the legitimate exercise of free speech fascism. Quite the contrary. The problem is the lengths that the authorities are going to to protect his speech. $600k for security and a state of emergency is loving insane. Like yeah everyone deserves the right to free speech, but when you're spending over half a million to protect the right to free speech of a loving nazi, something's really hosed up.

Gosh, I wonder if there's something about the the widow and the congresswoman that makes them open to criticism and doubt by people like Joe Walsh.
