It said something like you are on a flight and you are served two meals. One is a bunch of glass shards (Trump) and the other is some stale food (Biden).
Oh ok. I thought it was a meme. Turns out it is hard hitting journalism.
Thanks.
Its a pretty good analogy though, "can I interest you in the socially accepted mass murder, or something that is open about the harm it wilh do?"
This kind of rhetorical trick is so imprecise it's wild (but not really) to see it coming from a "journalist".
Like it's all they have left too, just endless "well if A1 were B and A2 were Z, of course you have to choose A1"
You have to choose between Hitler and Hitler, but imagine if I told you one of the Hitlers is like a bagel with cream cheese that you like but don't love, and the other Hitler is a thousand billion razor blades covered in the bubonic plague, obviously you'd have to choose Hitler
Triden is Voldemort but Bump is Umbridge, neither choice is ideal but anyone who isn't a fascist has to vote for Bridemp
I'm going to steal your choice of either 20 nickels or 10 dimes from you, but what if the 20 nickels were actually a billion dollars and the 10 dimes were only 7 dimes??????
It's both a false equivalency (between the two scenarios) and a false dichotomy (between the two options), if you want the names of the tricks
It's like he's never heard of someone passing on both options and saying "then I'd rather not eat right now" wtf? No when I'm on an airplane and they offer me 2 choices, pretzel or stroopwaffel, I'm obligated to eat the pretzel otherwise I'm endorsing the stroopwaffel reign of terror
You are on a flight and you are served two meals. One is a bunch of dead Palestinians and the other is a bunch of dead Palestinians with a pride flag on a toothpick stuck on top.
How do you say "what's the deal with airline food?" in Russian?
