Lol nah, it just won't fly that way. People will not idolize dictators and then turn around and whine about them and not get called out on it.Just won't happen, and it's unreasonable to think hypocrisy should be ignored.
This is what I want Americans to do. If they are gonna run their mouth about a dictator stop, think back..."have I ever praised a dictator or someone as equally shitty?" If the answer is "yes" then keep quiet.
If they can't keep quiet they need to be ready to be called hypocrites. Dem's da breaks.
Hypocrisy should be pointed out, yeah, but now you're focusing on it and essentially letting your own voted-for president suck a dictator's chub on live TV
So the next time a Leftist ignores a Left-leaning leader's mistake or bad call and instead focuses on highlighting your hypocrisy, you won't have a leg to stand on because you'll have done the same thing
Like I say, a vicious cycle of hypocrisy is all that can come of it

Hmm, writing that novel are ya. Got a nice little story there? Got a...got a compelling protagonist? Got an obstacle for him to overcome?
Nice little narrative, beginning, middle and end? Some friends become enemies, some enemies friends? Maybe the main character is richer for the experience?

I've flat out said I don't like how the summit was handled. I did so without being a god damn lunatic and talking about Pearl Harbor too.
I'm not letting Trump do anything. I don't like how the summit went down. I said that in the GDF too. What I don't like even more is the hysterical reaction. That clouds everything. Then people can't have an honest discussion about what Trump did wrong and how to fix it because god damn lunatics are shouting about Kristallnacht.

Personally I'm surprised you don't go for Putin more often, considering he's the direct result of how long-lasting the damage of a Communist revolution can be
Putin is a piece of dog shit. But I refuse to make him the boogeyman other dipshits in my country have. It just won't happen.
And I sure as hell won't whine Trump wants to make friends with Russia, given they are a nuclear power. I might not like how he always goes about it, but I won't overall whine at the efforts(leftists in this country have whined at the efforts)
Do these shitheads just want the cold war, or actual war? All cuz they are butthurt Hillary lost? F*ck that.
Originally posted by SurturI know it's annoying when people overreact like that, but you can't let the loudest and stupidest voices steer the route of discourse. You gotta just soldier on and have those serious discussions whilst also as a side-quest making sure the hypocrites know that they're hypocrites, and that they won't be a part of the conversation until they simmer down a bit
