        I remember a reddit-logo lib seething at me when I called John McCain a war criminal (when he was clearly involved in bombing North Vietnam), demanding proof that John McCain himself personally have ever dropped bombs on civilians

          My favorite is when they ask for proof he was racist and you show them the quote where he says “I hate the slurs and probablly will until the day i die” and then they get really mad and say that doesn’t count he’s allowed to think that since they tortured him. (Torturing him for firebombing entire villages of innocent people was deffinitly not ok, but him being racist as a result is)

      Dems plans to stop Donald Trump:

      Hope lifelong republican three letter agency people will stop him for them (Comey, Meuller, Garland)

      Hope republican Senators will stop him for them (voting tonconvict on impeachments)

      Hope powerless republicans will stop him (Bush, Cheyney, soon to be Musk)

      Hope republicans suddenly stop being republicans (appeal to the mythical moderate republican)

      They literally don’t even pretend to act like they’re doing something just listing other people that they think should do it for them.
