I remember when I first learned the term mental gymnastics during the 2016 election. I then went on to understand the term first hand as I continued to try and believe that the mueller report would amount to anything politically meaningful. Embarrassing as that is, I’m still proud to have come around to the truth of the eternal science. At some point you just have to admit you’re fucking wrong. I don’t envy these clowns or the knots they have to twist themselves into to care about this dumb bullshit. History and theory are much more liberating than anything having to do with the fucking parliamentarian.
