I barely got started before I was met with rampant, faulty reasoning on why this is unremarkable. 6 pages of it. That’s right— a “nothing burger” of epic length!

Again, I will thank you not to bully me off my own thread. Or is that simply beyond your EQ?

What's faulty about this being a completely legal use of freedom of speech?

That's a fact.

That pervasive cancel culture. It's like playing chess with a pigeon.

You know what's also perfectly legal? Selling your son's paintings for 500k,  owning 4 homes on the salary of a politician, having people buy up a million copies of your "book", and charging 10,000 per minute for a "speech."

All similar examples of the false dichotomy you pointed out.

Yes all that's legal and common to every president of the modern Era.


But it's only a problem now.  Lol

I suppose for some, who worship the bastions of authority, the pillars of morality must also stem from those paragons of violent force. So if it is legal, it is proper. A true dichotomy. Amen.

In America if we think something is a big issue we make it illegal.

Until then you have nothing

That's not how Democracy works. You can remove a politician without waiting for a lengthy legal process.

“Person X doing something wrong can be ignored because Person Y did a similar  transgression but to a worse degree.”

Does the above constitute sound reasoning to you? YES or NO?
No, it's not sound reasoning. It's also not what I did, which I've explained in great detail at least three times already. Your entire objection is a strawman.

Actually, let me adjust that. It's not entirely bad reasoning in some cases. The idea that's fallacious is the idea that person X's actions are less wrong because of person Y's actions. However, when it comes to what we should be focused on and how much attention should be paid to it... That's a different thing.

Biden's letter to the press would have been a big deal in the Obama years or before. But after 4 years of Trump and a country possibly on the brink of Trump 2.0, we have much bigger things to worry about.

You seem to be having problem with making people understand you, so no wonder you prefer pow pow instead of reasonable conversation.
You can't make someone understand you who doesn't want to.

Ah, well that’s a start!

It's also not what I did
Ok. Please state in one sentence (your “great detail” may actually detract from the clarity) what you are claiming, and… AND make it consistent with your first post to the thread.

Your OP stated the Biden memo and CNN's subsequent coverage "must be read to be believed".

My point, before I brought your personal behavior into the mix, is that it was unremarkable compared to the prior 4 years, therefore, it does not need to be read to be believed.
