      You get that this is a meme, and that "all the time" is commonly understood to mean "very often" in practical terms, right? If I said to you "that guy is getting high all the time" would you well akshually me about how he's not literally taking one endless bong rip 24 hours a day, or would you intuitively understand what I was saying and move on? Ironically, you've chosen to interpret this in very literal, black and white terms.

      Of course nobody is right about absolutely everything. But when you keep correctly calling the outcomes of wars before they start while everyone else screams and sneers that your accurate analysis makes you some kind of enemy agent, before reality forces those same people to turn around a year or two later and admit exactly what you were saying, only for nobody to learn anything and the cycle to begin again.... shit starts to feel like a burden.

        well this is politics... semantics matter, "tankies" (whatever that term means anymore) are right about a lot of things, sure, but theyre no prophets.

              Bro, the only thing resembling an argument with this meme that you and one other liberal has been able to muster has been "um, well askhually you're not literally omniscient". Like at this point you're clearly just looking for anything to grasp onto. If you're saying to someone "well you're not literally right all the time, just about all the important shit" then you're just squirming around. It's that weird "ah, touche" energy that your redditor types bring whenever you're wrong about something but want to carve out a little tiny technicality where you can continue to not confront it.
