      Democrats:“man do you remember how close they were when they were caught on video ACTUALLY STORMING THE CAPITOL BUILDING! I bet that they may try something else, like those fake electors, or…read the article”

      Literally why Republicans project.

      They level the playing field by pointing the finger away from themselves for what they themselves are doing. It’s no longer just them doing something shitty, it’s everyone, or no one. It becomes the childish “no you!” response that kills any argument that could be had if someone from the opposition criticizes them.

      Republicans do a thing, baselessly accuse Democrats of doing that thing, so idiots conclude “oh, both sides are accusing each other of doing that thing, it’s probably not happening.”

      How much Republican propaganda do you gobble up daily?

      Absolutely pathetic that you can’t see the difference.

        Roughly equal parts liberal propaganda. I like to go exploring.

          Obviously not though, right? Since you can’t tell the difference between Democrats accusing Republicans based on an actual insurrection, and Republicans accusing Democrats based on literally nothing at all.

          Are you just stupid, or what?
