      David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Charlie Sykes

      A new right wing talking point is born. (Sykes is the 3rd prominent #MAGAt likening the left's reaction to Bash's alleged hand sign to #leftpizzagate.) False equivalency, much? 1/https://twitter.com/SykesCharlie/status/1037128576699703296 …

      Bookmark this. If anyone ever gets around to writing a book called, say, “How the Left Lost Its Mind” it should include this thread, plus responses.... #leftpizzagate https://twitter.com/SethAbramson/status/1037086347759116289 …

      The reaction to Zina Bash's alleged hand signal will, when all is said and done, be an embarrassing one- or two-day Twitter eruption, soon forgotten. Embarrassing, yes. (As a liberal I found the reaction embarrassing.) But a nothingburger. 2/

      In contrast, #PizzaGate is a batshit insane conspiracy theory nearly two years old and still going strong. It's resulted in harassment of employees of the restaurant targeted (Comet Ping Pong) and a deranged man shooting in the restaurant to rescue nonexistent sex slaves. 3/

      There's no way the two reactions are anywhere near equivalent in craziness, but people like @SykesCharlie want to give the impression that they are because they need to portray the left as just as deranged as Trump supporters believing #PizzaGate are. 4/

      So expect a lot of #MAGAt drones like @SykesCharlie obsessively repeating obsessively messages of false equivalency between #PizzaGate and the left's reaction to Zina Bash. It's all they have. 5/5

          The false equivalency is stupid. So, is the conspiracy theorizing over a resting hand.

          Um. In pizzagate, a guy showed up with a gun at the restaurant. So, I guess you'd need that for it to be the left's pizzagate.

          No. You are wrong. And self defeating. Charlie does not at all support Trump. We need all allies.

          So one ridiculous accusation slanders a pizza joint and prominent politicians, the other slanders a previously unknown public servant. I see the distinction, but the difference is less significant.

          You're embarrassing me. Charlie retired from a successful radio show because he's a never-Trump.
