There's those who commit unintended mistakes, then there's those who give in to the temptation of behaving badly in their moments of weakness, and then there's those who can't wait for any given opportunity to behave maliciously and justify it by saying they aren't the only ones doing it.

Hey, don't judge me for commiting ethnic cleansing! Hitler did it as well, after all! And that one single bad apple in your group is mildly racist as well, so you're no better!

Can we just stop having this discussion? It's so boring. Both sides misrepresent the other. Tankies are stupid. Also nobody is a tankie. The Biden administration sanctioned a genocide. Every other US president is a war criminal. This discussion never goes anywhere.

So you propose ignoring the propaganda and hope it'll go away? Doesn't sound like a very good plan.

What propaganda are you even talking about? It sounds like you're trying to continue a discussion by ignoring the comment that says the discussion is pointless.

Using the term "tankie" while defending a party carrying out a modern day holocaust is quite something.

Defending and arguing that the two parties aren't the same isn't the same thing. Just check out last week's news involving trump. Just last week. And then multiply that by 50. Nobody said the democrats are good. Just that the republicans are 10 times worse, that's all.

Leftists: Maybe we shouldn't fund genocide and perhaps the average worker should be able to afford to put food on their table

Liberals: HOW DARE YOU PROMOTE YOUR RADICAL TANKIE AGENDA, DONT YOU KNOW THE GDP AND STOCK MARKET ARE GOING UP WHICH MEANS THE ECONOMY IS GOOD SO STOP COMPLAINING. IN FACT THE POLITICANS DONT EVEN NEED TO GIVE YOU ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY DESERVE YOUR VOTE, NEVER BLAME THE SYSTEM, NEVER ASK FOR CHANGE AND NEVER THINK ABOUT WHO PULLS THE STRINGS

That was entirely based on my interactions with liberals, yes I was acturally called a Tankie for caring about basic human dignity
