They're just throwing the rhetoric you used against them this last summer. You set the precedent -this year-. What, can't live by your own standards?

So are we going to compare one event against multiple events? Because I could list plenty of times that Patriot Prayer and other Right-Wing Extremist groups have killed people.

I just did.

Just because you don't accept it, doesn't mean it isn't fact.

No, you didn't. You named one group, and then made a generalization about other groups.

You did not list *any* time when the group, or any other group killed people.

If you're going to be so unaware of your own lies, there's no reason for anyone to take you seriously.

You know, you're absolutely right. I had this conversation confused with another.

James Alex Fields, a right-wing extremist commit murder.
Steven Carillo is a cop-killer from the right-wing extremist group, the Boogaloo Boiz.
Wade Michael Page was a Mass Shooter
Jared and Amanda Miller
Dylann Roof
James Harris Jackson
Cesar Sayoc Jr....
Should I go on?

None of those groups or people represent Trump supporters.

Exactly. And I or anyone else could come up with a list that's just as non-representative to counter that list. Thanks for stating clearly and succinctly what I didn't in my reply to owmb.

Whoa... don't tell me I have to give you some credit and respect now, for admitting you made a mistake?! Well, I will. I will admire anyone who can admit they were wrong about something, even if it was just by making a mistake. So you have some degree of my respect. (whoa... I can't believe I typed that! 👀👍)

Yes, please go on. I think you can come up with many more than that. It won't prove anything, because anyone on any side of this issue could come up with their own list. And no, I'm not going to bother, because neither list would prove anything.

Go for it. It will be a totally ignorant thing to do, because I doubt anyone here supports Patriot Prayer (whoever/whatever that is... I'm just taking you at your word for what sleaze bags they are) or other right wing extremist groups, which most Trump supporters like me also want nothing to do with. Again, false premise. You need to get a grip on reality.

What property did they destroy? So you don't know about the busted doors and windows? The vandalized property?

This is one event. I could cite many BLM protests where no one was harmed, nothing was damaged, nothing was burned.

I'm surprised that you can't separate the differences of a white power event versus a violin vigil for someone who died due to police brutality.

How twisted is your world perspective for you to think that a vigil for someone who passed away and a gathering endorsing white power racism are the same?

smh. Your hate and racism knows no bounds.

You speak in ambiguous generalizations that would seem to support the notion that you get everything you think from the anti-trump media's propaganda. To dumb it down for you, you don't think for yourself. You think what they tell you to think.

Like I said, there's no reason for anyone to take you seriously.

As a test they should go and do some actual research at the source. Then compare it to what's on the news.
1 up, 4y
They won't do that. I hate to predict the future, but based on past behavior, it's painfully clear that they won't do that.

Two obvious and easy examples are what Trump said about Charlottesville which was never reported accurately, and the pathetic lies about him telling us to drink clorox, which the media made up and propagated.

There are so many examples of the media lying about Trump to the brainwashed sheep, and they have shown they just don't give a damn to put in the effort it would take to know the truth.

The standard YOU set forth, you disgusting filth, is "no one was harmed, nothing was damaged, nothing was burned." There were plenty of KKK meetings that describes.

There were probably KKK meetings where someone played the violin.

Hey, howabourt a violin vigil for Cannon Hinnant? Were there any of those? Or just for violent black criminals who ODed on fentanyl?

"There were probably KKK meetings where someone played the violin." With the purpose of endorsing white power and hate. Why are you defending the KKK so hard, are you a member? Certainly seem impassioned about defending them.

We should probably hold a vigil for Heather Heyer, too.

You should really stop defending KKK.

I'm not defending the KKK. I'm just pointing out that the standards you set can just as easily be used to justify them. I'm sorry you're so stupid.
0 ups, 4y
You sure are defending them. You could have used any other group to demonstrate violent behavior versus examples of not. But you chose to defend the first thing that came to your mind. The people you wanted to defend.

Very telling. I'm sorry you had a Freudian slip.

Are you asking me that question?

If you are, it's clearly based on a false premise. Actually, two false premises.

1. I didn't like it when Democrats like Biden gave implicit support to the violence committed by rioters, looters, etc. last summer, and I don't like rioters storming the Capitol now.

Nothing in that meme, or its message, is inconsistent in terms of my standards. My standards are not situational, as are the standards of many liberals, including the one I used for this post as an example.

2. No, they're not "just throwing the rhetoric you used against them last summer." They're changing their position, meaning their standards, based on the situation, for political expedience. That's what is known as hypocrisy. I'm just calling it out. The fact that you're blind to it, says a lot about you.

So, let me say a few things.

1. I didn't like it when Trump gave implicit support to the violence committed by Patriot Prayer, Proud Boys, etc. last summer, and I don't like rioters storming the Capitol now.

Nothing that you suggested in point #2 of your message, is consistent in terms of my standards. My standards are not situational, as are the standards of many trump supporters, including the one you used for this post as an example.

2. Yes, they're "just throwing the rhetoric you used against them last summer." As being a Democrat against the riots knows all too well how the genetic fallacy was used. So, since you are a Trump supporter, so too are you able to have the genetic fallacy applied to you. You've changed your position, meaning your standards, based on the situation, for political expedience. That's what is known as hypocrisy. I'm just calling it out. The fact that you're blind to it, says a lot about you.

Implicit is a word you're using incorrectly. I suggest you say that you inferred implicit support, because that's all you're doing; making an inference. And inferences can be dead wrong, as is the case with you.

My point #2 simply pointed out that your comment about throwing rhetoric was dead wrong. The liberal in my meme was not just throwing rhetoric back. You're just flat out wrong about that. You can say you're not, but you're wrong. Nothing you wrote comes even remotely close to proving that you're not dead wrong. I'm starting to wonder about your grip on reality.

"genetic fallacy"? surely just a typo, right? But you used it twice. What the hell are you getting at with that?

I have absolutely not changed my position, nor standards, based on the situation. I flat out state that you cannot prove your claim by anything I've posted on imgflip. Go ahead, quote me. I'll wait with eager anticipation, because I know you will fail. I suspect that's not a new thing for you.

do you realize she is talking about the trump riots at the capitol? That isn't a liberal hypocrite, it's a trump hypocrite.

I've rarely, if ever, agreed with what you say in your posts, but you've never struck me as the type who has no ability to grasp the obvious... until now.

Sigh... okay, let me explain it to you. The meme shows a fairly well known liberal being a complete hypocrite, plain and simple.

This is clearly evidenced by her tweet on 30/05/2020, which in US format is May 30th, 2020. In that tweet she talks about violent protests and how she accepts them, and scolds those who don't by pretty clearly stating that they're acceptable based on precedent in US history.

Next, we see her tweet on 06/01/2020, which in US format is January 6th, 2021. That tweet talks about the riots at the Capitol, and pretty clearly states that she is dead square against them. She attacks the patriotism of the rioters, and calls them traitors and cowards. Words she never used for similarly violent protests taking place at the time of her tweet on May 30th, 2020..

This is about as pure of an example of hypocrisy as one can find. If you can't see that, then you are in fact blinded by your media overlords telling you what to think.

Never has this old saying been more appropriate than now...NotsoFat_Elvis! Your meme was perfect as was your response here but talking to leftists is like banging your head up against a wall...

Did you even bother looking at the date of the first post? She was criticizing those that disapprove of Leftist violence all the way back in MAY of 2020. She is inconsistent as is convenient to her politics and nothing more.
1 up, 4y
No! She was, on one hand in her first post, defending the liberals rioting, burning, looting, murdering for the past 4 years (peaceful riots the liberals media were calling the remember). And then this hypocrite immediately turned around and condemned the capitol's protest in her second post because she is squarely blaming the Conservatives (which she should if this proves to be true) and by extension Trump. You do not get the hypocrisy? Well! It is because she had NEVER condemned the liberal rioters for the past entire 4 years.....but had started out by "but those wagging their fingers against violent protests" and is where she is defending the liberals actions over the last 4 years......

Your meme so clearly represents the leftists' attitude and behavior change we have seen over the last four days. Gosh, they are despicable Un-Americans, Elvis!
