    One of the biggest breakthroughs I ever had in my political beliefs was realizing that conservatives don’t care about hypocrisy. They know they’re being hypocrites. They don’t give a shit. All they care about is the fact that they’re winning and you and the libs are losing.

      Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words.

      John Mulaney had an absolutely fantastic bit about this recently. I wish I could share it with y'all.

      Something to the effect of imitating liberal:

      "He wouldn't. He couldn't. He didn't! He did! Sir, have you no respect for precedent?? Did you not hear me? This is unprecedented. Un. Precedented. Sir."

        think it might be more accurate to say that liberals care more about owning Ted Cruz on Twitter or whatever, conservatives here are pretty committed to killing people
