The Hunter Biden laptop story is as meta as it gets. The whole point of the story is that it's a story, and that bad people aren't letting the story be told.
Every freaking complaint about the story is about the story itself. It is Buttery Males v2. Same thing -- they didn't care about the emails, they cared about the story.
- yeahwhatever10 4y agoYes it turns out people care about being lied to.
- pstuart 4y agoNo they don't. They only care when people they don't like lie to them (at least when we're talking about an audience that ostensibly includes you). Selective outrage can only be sincere via ignorance. Tribal/partisan politics such as this is an betrayal of allegiance to one's country.
- teddyh 4y agoParallels to President Clinton; it didn’t really matter what he actually did, but it turned out to matter very much that he lied about what he did.
- hedora 4y agoOK, if Democrats collectively admit the Biden administration covered up the laptop whatever scandal from 2019 to 2020 can we stop hearing about it? If not, is there an individual opt out browser setting or something?
- pstuart 4y agoThese people are zombies! "hunter's laptop..... hunter's laptop....." They're literally beyond reason - it's so sad and frustrating.
- pstuart 4y agoBill Clinton was a sexual predator -- there's a reason why he is not the public statesman he could have been. But for some reason his sexual proclivities were fair game when his predecessor's were not (it was an open secret he had a mistress for decades). But it apparently didn't matter that the other president liked about paying of the porn star he screwed while his wife was in the hospital giving birth to his son. You know, the case where he broke the law but his attorney went to jail for being the bag man? It's crazy-making how selective the "morality" of the right is.
