This applies to the entire political class as well, one hand they ll talk non-stop about conservative (or liberal) values and as it turns out eventually, the very same people forced abortions/employed illegals/molested women and so on. I think ultimately there is big difference between what people practice and what they preach and it applies to literally everyone.
- yamtaddle 4y agoA really large proportion of the political class—and, I think, more of them, the higher up you go—are basically practicing kayfabe (the façade of reality that "Pro Wrestlers" and many fans engage in). They rip into each other on TV then go golfing together like nothing happened, same as a wrestling "face" and "heel" in the locker room might be cordial to one another when the cameras aren't following them. None of it's real, just an act, for lots of them, including the policies they push.
