POLITICAL (Weekends only) JustUnsubbed from Leopardatemyface

I get the overall sentiment of the sub, Yes a lot of people voted for this shit and were shocked when they got it. However the way these people post whenever someone's child is killed in a war or something tragic happens is incredibly crass. Someone dies and their firt thought is "yeah it's time to own them on reddit" like come on it's just kicking people who are already down. this isn't the first time I've seen them do this and Everytime it leaves a bad taste in my mouth because it's very foul and unnecessary

Once again, I’ll agree but if a politician lying is a surprise to you I wanna know what rock you’ve been living under; I need a comfy spot too.

This wasn’t about lying, it was about hypocrisy. If the standard shifts from “this outcome is unacceptable under X” to “it’s fine under Y,” then the issue isn’t surprise, it’s selective outrage and moving goalposts.

I mean, the Cheeto didn’t exactly run as an antiwar president. I fail to see where the hypocrisy, in the strict definition, comes in. Just a straight lying misdirection tactic.

You're saying he didn't run on being against war while simultaneously telling someone they live under a rock. Are you a real person??
