    Yes, there are crazies on both sides. On the one side, you have the crazies who want universal healthcare. On the other side, you have the crazies who believe their political opponents are cannibals and want to murder them. Basically the same.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1356615770541850628 …

    Rep. Nancy Mace bothsides Marjorie Taylor Greene: "There are crazies on both sides of the aisle. We've seen that. It's not just Republicans that have our own issues. Democrats have them too. We've seen Maxine Waters." (Waters have never endorsed the execution of Republicans) pic.twitter.com/NjYMQFhJiq

        These argument tactics politicians use such a false equivalence and moving goal posts make a logic driven person like me go crazy.

        That's what I don't understand. The worse i hear the "squad" bernie say i don't want you to go broke going to college and the hospital and some how that equates to Jewish space lasers. I don't get it

        Well, it makes more sense when you realize these people have been bombarded w/years - decades! - of propaganda telling them liberals want to destroy America, abolish genders, gay marry everyone, take away all the guns, persecute Christians, turn the US socialist/communist, etc.

        Yeah, but Rep. Waters is black and, by definition, of cannibal descent according to Rep. Mace. Can white people get any more racist? It's like they're in a contest with the Chinese.

        Also, why Maxine Waters? Why not Katie Porter or another white woman? Lots of dog whistle in this statement. Maxine Waters has also never followed the minor victim of a violent crime screaming at them. She also doesn’t believe in space lasers.
