    If Bill Clinton has to end up in prison for the rest of his life, well then, I guess that’s just a price i’m willing to pay.

    This is the thing that old people get where they think that every issue works both ways. They care about Trump so they assume we have the same opinions about the liberal elites like Clinton or Biden, or Obama.

    This is also where the “Father, I cannot click the book” comes from. They can’t find reliable info online and think that kids cant find reliable info from books.

      This is such a great observation.

      In thinking about it I think it kind of works backwards for them, too: they hear that we do care about something, and then they decide that they have to aggressively not care about it, or care in the opposite direction. Like the whole paper straw thing; nobody on the left really cared about it, but there were some conservatives who really thought they were ownin’ the libs by using plastic straws.

    Bill gates should be next:

    According to the article, Bill met with Epstein on “numerous occasions,” including one visit that spanned hours.

    “His lifestyle is very different and kind of intriguing although it would not work for me,” he emailed colleagues in 2011, after his first encounter with Epstein.

      It’d be amazing if they all shared the same cell. Gates and Clinton slap the shit out of Trump because he snores too loud and won’t sleep on his stomach. Trump and Gates thump Clinton because he’s afraid of the shower block and won’t wash his ass. Trump yells at Gates so much about his eye-watering gas that he farts in the toilet out of fear. They deserve nothing less than each other.

    Man I remember yelling about the Clintons being monsters for over a decade and would get downvoted and banned from subs, I did the same when all the cute Joe Biden memes about ice cream and cars were all going around, and got downvoted for reminding everyone that Biden is as bloody as you get.

      Saying that Biden raped a woman, would’ve gotten you banned from reddit (and the liberal lemmy servers) just a few months ago. The liberals dropped #metoo faster than a rock during election season.

    I expect a bunch of people and rich donateurs from both sides of the isle. This is a rich pedophiles (and their friends) vs everyone else type of deal and not a left vs right thing.

      I think you’re just confused on what is the left, but many in the US are.

        Lol, I’m not from the US. Just following US politics closely and doing what I can from a distance.

        But yeah, US „left“ is more right than most country’s “right“. But nearly all of Europe is going through a political right-shift too, so who knows how long that’ll last.

    This is what decades of right wingers calling democrats as communists will do to their worldview.

    If they are banking on a strategy of ignorance, then we have nothing to worry about comrades; eventually their imagined reality will collapse and their strategy will be broken.

    Conservatives value loyalty over truth, fairness, justice, etc.

    “Liberals have a kind of moral vision based almost entirely on the Care and Fairness foundations. Conservatives, in contrast, draw on those plus Loyalty, Authority, and Sanctity, which makes their moral matrix broader.”

    “This emphasis on loyalty, particularly to country and in-group, helps explain why conservatives are more likely to value patriotism and support for the military, while liberals are more likely to question those things when they conflict with compassion or justice.”

    – (Haidt, 2012, The Righteous Mind, Chapter 7)
