    I had to look up concern troll, it’s apparently an evil kind of devils advocate.

    And how is what i posted (comparing the worst what is said about republicans with the worst that is said about democrats) a false equivalency, but this post that compares the worst of one side with the best of the other side not?

    All i’m saying is making this kind of false equivalencies just weakens your position. From what i can tell it’s indeed obvious the real fucking evil that’s happening in the USA (i’m from europe, so i of course have to go by what i can see & read online). So it should be freakin easy to make your point without silly posts like this that are such an obvious false equivalence that it’s imo just pathetic.

    But having standards for the communication of the side i prefer is a thought crime here it seems? And i’m then somehow accused of the exact thing the original post is doing and that i’m complaining about. So you find false equivalencies an issue, but don’t see an issue with the post here?

    like… wow… really really really… wow…

        It kind of says a lot about this place that some slight pedantry is immediately viewed as malice…

        And this meme is still terrible :p
