The Comfort of False Equivalence
There’s a seductive kind of cowardice masquerading as wisdom in modern discourse: the insistence that all extremes are created equal. It’s what allows the centrist to shrug and say, “Well, both sides are dangerous,” as though morality and method exist on a balanced scale, and history is simply a record of shared mistakes. For MAGA, this rhetorical laziness isn’t just useful. It’s strategic.

        Hoo boy, you sure showed me! Damn, I’m never coming back from that one, a zinger clearly birthed by an American education. You’re right - your thoughtless regurgitation of American propaganda is absolutely superior.

        Thank you for reminding me why I left that cesspit.
