man people really lack nuance these days huh? what a black and white world you must live in.

tell me do you see any difference between walking up and punching a child vs. forcibly restraining someone trying to do the same? they're both violent though!

It's moreso in the fact that trumps followers were also totally convinced that the child was about to be punched. Everyone likes to think their view of the world is objective and everyone who acts against it does so fully knowing what they're doing.

That aside if any of these politicians actually cared they would've attempted to fix your election system long ago, so of course he's doing nothing.

everyone being convinced of their subjective experience doesn't mean there's not an objective truth.

Pizzagate isn't the same as Project 2025
