      Just admit you don't hold any real ideals and just want 'your guy' to win liberals, conservatives did years ago

        Blue MAGA is more accurate by the day.

        Liberals all tried to dunk on conservatives for saying they don't care what Trump has do e they're voting for him anyway because they want him to be president.

        Liberals all patted themselves on the back for that and then literally yesterday the top post in political humor was the exact same message except for biden but more condescending and acting like they had moral authority.

        They literally said nothing you tell them will change their mind and they're ready to discount anything you say as a russ8an conspiracy theory.

      Glad to see my bulkshit detector was right again when I saw a reddit post talking about how Biden is killing it because people started chanting four more years at his speech.

      Article didn't mention it wasn't in support of Biden it was ro drown out people calling for an end to the genocide he was perpetuating.

    Using victims of a horrific, racially motivated, mass killing to silence criticism of Biden's support for prolonged horrific, racially motivated, mass killing should rightly...etc.

        'racially insensitive' is Joe Biden somehow black-by-proxy because he was Obama's VP? Otherwise, how the fuck is Joe Biden connected to this shooting did-i-miss-a-page

          Is it the fact that he's talking about it at the time? You can get booed for hypocrisy. That's a thing that can happened. If Dick Cheney shows up at an anti-war rally to make a supportive speech, he's going to be heckled. What are they even trying to get across here jesse-wtf

      Telling a bunch of anti-lynching activists that this is a disrespectful day to protest lynching, on account of a famous lynching that happened today.

      Then cutting to a crying conservative who didn't get a Christmas themed coffee cup.

    Sweaty, using a house of worship that has suffered from horrific mass shooting by a white supremacist for a campaign speech should rightly be seen as tone deaf, racially insensitive, and downright offensive.

      More liberal infantalizing by failing to even consider maybe the people effected by the church shooting have some sympathy for the oppressed minority being gunned down in their homes.

    You know, I hear this sort of thing every single time people in the US protest. The liberals are quick to remind them that "this won't win hearts and minds" every time. Any sort of protest, be it peaceful or disruptive, is declared invalid for rallying support. Oddly, they never suggest an appropriate way to protest that would win hearts and minds.

    Why, if I didn't know better, I'd think these people just flat out don't want anyone protesting at all because it makes them look bad!

      It's always fun to find political cartoons from the 60s and point out to them that if they were alive then they would be making the exact same arguments that the people who opposed MLK Jr were using.

          Yup that's the one I was thinking of.

          And then keep reiterating "seriously you realize that you would have opposed MLK Jr if you were alive at the time right?"

          Enjoying the fireworks after asking them to explain the difference is the most societal value you'll get out of a liberal.

            I love when they do that. They twist themselves into knots, usually implying that MLK Jr was "one of the good ones" (and today's protestors aren't).

      They want protesters to get permits and march in circles until they get tuckered out

        But even when they do that they still complain about it. A protest can be 100% legal with all the proper paperwork (freedom to protest amiright?) and inconvenience no one, but they'll still complain about it being the "wrong way to protest"

      It's 2024, it's the ten year anniversary of Gamergate, the previous mass lib scratching event, and that was over bloody video games. And then there were enough scratched libs that liked Bush in 2004.

      I swear, there's something about years that end in the number 4 that's cursed.

      It's interesting that in the decades since that phrase came to be nobody has figured out rhe best way to win hearts and minds of a population is to not murder innocent members of that population.

        Right? You should be able to go up to the clerk at the ICC offices and be like "Hey this motherfucker was gonna/did do a genocide" and they'll be like "I am literally just the desk clerk leave before I call security" but then you pull up your phone like "Here's a video of them saying "Win hearts and mines"" and the clerk is like "Oh shit, guilty! Guilty! Immediate death sentence let me just stamp this piece of paper."

    Maybe we'll have a double leap day some year in the next millennium, and since no mass shooting events will have happened before on "that day" you can do a protest then.
