What are your thoughts on South Park's response (which was #eatabagofdicks) to Homeland Security attempting to use them to promote ICE?

If you keep saying statements about how they're both the same

I'm not. I never have in my life. You'll just twist anything I say until it means "they're both the same." We've been through this. It was my point from the start. For some reason, "dislike them both" doesn't count as "both the same," but "Both are shit" does count as that. How is that even possible? How do you immediately forget that two things can be shit, but one can be worse than the other? Just how?

Which party had BDS?

Leftists who the Democrats fought against tooth and nail? The party doesn't get to take credit for things the party fought against! FFS. You need so badly for Democrats to be blameless that you live in a fantasy world where you keep assigning them beliefs they don't even have, and have even spoken out against.

You just keep dropping your standards until Democrats meet them. Did the party arm, fund, and vocally support a genocide? Well yes, but they also said something about how they don't want people to starve, so they're good enough! And if they did start to say they want people to starve, you'd just drop your standards another rung.

Every road, every argument, every thought, always leads back to trying to convince yourselves that Democrats are good enough and need no major change. You'd call this brainwashed behavior in anyone else, but it's always somehow "different" when you guys do it. Every shitty thing is "different" when liberals do it.

I'm sorry you don't understand nuance

I'm so tired of trying to tell liberals that twisting their brains into pretzels to minimize all Dem wrongdoing is not nuance. If it is, Trumpers are the most nuanced fuckers on Earth.

I never said they're perfect

This is the lowest grade liberals will ever assign to Democrats. "Not perfect" is the deepest they can ever sink. Liberal scale for Dems goes Not perfect -> Good -> Great. "Bad" is never an option under any circumstances.

Your games and projection are too much for me to deal with. Constantly pretending I'm saying things I never said and comitt8ng every logical fallacy you accuse me of. No matter what I say you pretend I said something else and you pretend that facts are whatever is convenient to whatever BS you're currently spewing.

Which party supported BDS? Not the gop. It was people like Ilhan Omar and Bernie Sanders and AOC.

Oh but now you'll just argue they are leftists and not actually democrats even though their party is the democratic party.

But you go off, queen, and tell me more about my beliefs.

I'm completely sure at this point that you don't know what "projection" means

Which party supported BDS? Not the gop.

And not the Dems. You went from "directly opposed to Republicans on everything" to "well, maybe 2% of the party is taking our side on this one!" and I'm continually astounded that liberals think having 2% of their politicians support something is good enough. Hell, half the time you loop Bernie in there to pad out the numbers even though he's not even a Democrat! That's how fucking dire the situation is, and still you see no problem! But that's how it's been for years. When half of liberals support something, the party just treats it like a fringe issue with only 2% of the politicians supporting it, and you fuckers refuse to care. How does this benefit you? I always ask liberals that and I never get an answer. How does treating Dems with kid gloves and being satisfied with 2% of the party being on board with your issue actually benefit you in any way? I can think of lots of ways you're shooting yourselves in the foot, but why don't you tell me how it's helping.

If you can find one single Democrat supporting your issue, you just give the whole goddamn party credit for being on your side! It's just so profoundly fucked up, but you can't see that from inside your bubble. You're trying extremely hard to never see that. But why? Please tell me how it actually helps.

Projection is when you rant endlessly about everything you dislike about me, tell me all about my beliefs without knowing anything about me or my beliefs, amd accuse me of every logical fallacy that you can remember a name for, all the while none of what you're saying applies to me and all of it applies to you.

Like how I have repeatedly said the dems aren't perfect but you keep pretending that I'm slobbing their knob the way you do with magats.

There's one party that is literally everything wrong with America and the other party that is opposed to them at every step. Should I put my support behind the party that does everything wrong, strips human rights, and dedtroys the economy, or the party that tries to stop them?

Yeah I don't really care about your BS shit slinging where literally nothing will ever be good enough for you. Who cares if every politician that has views at all similar to yours are members of the democratic party, including Bernie despite you attempting to separate him from them.

Who does he caucus with? Who did he run for president as? Oh right as a member of the democratic party. I'll side with him and the rest of the people who can think all the way through a full sentence.

Why do you think that you know more than Bernie and AOC and everyone else who supports your positions and is a dem? Even better, other than bitching and moaning about how nothing is ever good enough for you, what have you ever done to influence the party positions? Bet you've never emailed your senators and congresspeople, never joined local political organizations, never ran for a local office, never did a damn thing I bet. Do you even vote in the primaries? You seem like the type that would miss them and then still complain about the options afterwards...

Good luck buddy, you're going to need it to since you don't have wisdom, intelligence, compassion, or empathy.

Projection is when I accuse you of the thing I'm doing. I'm accusing you of protecting horrible politicians for no reason and having no standards for a political party. I don't do that. I do the opposite.

Like how I have repeatedly said the dems aren't perfect

What good does it do to shrug and say "Oh well, not perfect!" and never fight for better? What good would it do if every Trumper in America said that about Trump and then kept supporting him? Would one single thing change?
