In a post titled “Trump is symbolic of the rot of the US government”, they were calling the concept of “harm reduction” (as in, voting for the person who’s not literally Hitler) “bullshit that liberals tell themselves because they know that what they support is evil”, because they’re a sane, mature human who is not at all stupid as hell.
They didn’t really like it when I pushed back on that narrative by pointing out that far more people have been harmed in the first 2 years of a Trump presidency than would have been over 8 years of a Harris presidency. Que sera, sera.
These comparison you’re trying to make to Taleya’s post is not equitable. But hey, if you want play “deportations” how many biden ones were of citizens? How manhy of them were found to be illegal in courts of law?
this coment really does read like you’re trying to build a framework of "both sides bad" but one side is a bit shit and the other one is monstrous.
Fuck off with legal / illegal deportations. All deportations are bad, probably all include suffering and you do not really seem to be able to grasp or acknowledge that.
so you’re just making bad faith arguments and taking reactionary shits then. Cheerio.
Ah yeah calling people reacrionary is always how discussions end when the goal is to present as the most progressive.
