    Why are Republicans calling people that directly attacked and killed people in the hallowed halls of the Capital building “the good guys”?

      Because they’re tribal partisan hacks. The only thing they care about is them VS everyone else

        You’re almost there. It’s because they’re liars (the politicians / boosters). Tribalism is reserved for their base. The leaders are cynical af.

        You think Tucker is genuinely perplexed by the issues he talks about with interviewees? Don’t worry, that’s a rhetorical question. I know Lemmy users aren’t idiots. Just making a point.

          Unfortunately, some Lemmy users are idiots. Had a discussion with a person who thinks unions are the worst thing to happen to workers, and would not understand that they’re the reason we have weekends. The person probably wants slaves.

          The people who want to bring back slavery assume they won’t be the slaves. If they aren’t billionaires then they are making a big assumption.

      These are the same dingbats that have made Ashli Babbitt a martyr (and have doxxed the man who shot her) and never can answer the question. Just what the f— was she even doing there that day?

      Not one of the people that cry about her and pretend to be so very concerned about it can answer why she was even there. Of course, this is the same bunch that think killing someone over selling loose cigarettes (if they are Black) is NBD.
