It really is whataboutism, by definition though.
“Putin puppets Trump around like a Jeff Dunham prop”
“But WHAT ABOUT all the election interference the US has done in other countries”
And then saying No puppet, but if he was it doesn’t matter because the US has been interfering in other countries.
Whoawhoawhoawhataboutism
The frustrating part of Trump being krompromat to Russia is… the people drawing attention to it are oblivious to the foreign policy of the US for the last 100 years?!
That’s what your frustrated about lol?

You got em. The long and storied history of q1, 2024.
The a-bombs weren’t the president, Truman was. And yes I think Trump is emphatically worse at his job than Truman.
Agreed. Coming full circle back to my comment, Putin and Russia are to blame for the unnecessary deaths of Ukrainians, not those who harbour sentiments of “Fuck Putin and Glory to Ukraine”
If the election was illegitimate (you mean he really didn’t get 88% of the vote ?!?), then it sounds like its Putin shitting on Russian citizens. Not sure how my comment is derogatory either.
Yaaa, let’s blame the sentiments of observers for killing Ukrainians, not the genocidal kgb agent and the country where 88% of the voters reelected him…
Couldn’t the same be said for the proof of dark matter?
They were able to make some observations fit with their theory with dark matter yes, but not all of them
“Ya know, the Nazi’s had pieces of flair… They made the Jews wear them”
I’ve thought about this a lot lately, especially since having kids. It really hit me how much non-verbal and indirect communication they pick up on. I want my kids to be good people, better than me, and I worry they are picking up on my short comings.
I think society is like that. We say sharing is good and we teach sharing, but a disproportionate group that takes everything, that is selfish, that puts there priorities above others… that behavior is rewarded, intentionally or not. And generations go by and the behavior is normalized.
I like (and shudder) to think alot of history is a series of these little oversteps that the masters of the universe are laughing about at the time… “trickle down economics, can you believe they are buying this shit?!” And 50 years later, after 2 generations the supporters forgot it was all a scam and are genuinely believers.
Oh man, I would browse while on the shitter at work. It used to be one of my OGs. A lot of tinfoil. And you’d get the deep dives that didn’t feel politically motivated (compared to today).
Then, the Trumpeting.
Like everything else not stapled down circa 2016, it was an easy target for the Russian firehose of falsehood: an entire community of people wanting to believe some alternative bullshit.
