Yeah because I'm not going to vote for Orange Dipshit doesn't mean Biden lying and breaking promises is somehow valid and cool and good. Blue MAGA is awesome!
"Yes the genocide in Palestine is horrible ~~but at least it's not me~~"
There's always an implied ending to that statement.
I'm convinced that a lot of their willingness to close their eyes to just how atrocious things like the Palestinian genocide and Mexican border camps are is fueled by racism.
You know what? I'd be okay with that. At least they should be honest about it.
I totally get voting for Biden due to self interest. It sucks. But I get it. Self-preservation and all that.
But don't pretend he's the lesser evil. He's just the evil that benefits you and not someone else.
You'd be ok with white American liberals thinking their lives are more important than those of brown people? I'm not ok with that.
I mean, people are looking out for their own self interest in general. I think that's horrible and it needs addressing.
But it's the hypocrisy that really gets me when it comes to liberals.
Their whole worldview is destroying us and the planet. Hypocrisy is bad, but there are far worse things about liberalism in my opinion.
Remove the hypocrisy, and you have overt fascists. I'd not call that much of an improvement.
Fair enough
I agree with you though that the hypocrisy is also troubling. The hypocrisy is what they use to persuade people that they're on "their side," so to speak. That's why I always make it a point to highlight the fact that they're not our allies. We're only tactically useful to them.
