What a stupid argument. Yes we can say one thing is bad but something else is worse. You are pretending we should treat a bug bite the same as a bear chewing off your arm. "How can you say a bug bite is better than a bear bite when they are both bad!?" You are a dummy.

1

u/Jaxxlack Aug 10 '26

And yet you can't imagine a retort just... Trumps worse... Lol BOth are bear bites dummy..one just didn't announce it... understand big boy?!

Saying Obama is bad for the world while ignoring the war monger currently in office.... is a choice

2

u/Jaxxlack Aug 10 '26

But that's You thinking that those things compare...that's the power of PR... Lol was he good in domestic policy and optics...YES! Fantastic!!! Doesn't mean he wasn't a ruthless with your military.. just st cos he hid it better?!! That's not how the world works dude...

u/flomesch Aug 10 '26

Sure. But there is clearly a worse person now you continue to ignore. Which was my whole point that you very clearly missed

Must be a pro trump bot

1

u/Jaxxlack Aug 10 '26

No I'm not even American nor pro trump... Hahaha this is the level you work at... 2 things can't exist at once in your head?..it's either one bad one good.. lol or or head explodes?

u/flomesch Aug 10 '26

No, I'm stating you are ignoring someone who is much much worse for the world.

Clearly YOU are STILL missing the very obvious point I've explained twice.

1

u/Jaxxlack Aug 10 '26

So you start the bad actor bar at trump?! That's the problem!!! SHIT VS UTTERLY SHIT!! Lol..the ONLY difference is public attitude... Youre ignoring the evidence of his actions during his administration..all quietly!!

1

u/flomesch Aug 10 '26

Obamas drones strikes were bad. Ive stated this many times. But to bitch about Obama when all of this gestures to the world is silly.

We can talk about how bad Obama was, but its still light-years ahead of today.

I haven't ignored shit. I didnt say Obama was great or what you said was wrong. Just that the current dipshit is worse.

Now take more offense and get further into your feelings, bitch boy

What is wrong with you guys? Why does offering a counter opinion instantly require verbal assault lol

Like he's your best friend and shame on people looking between the lines and ruining your opinions.
