It's like a thief calling everybody else a thief. A liar calling everybody else a liar, to take away the focus from their own lying.
The both sides -argument can be diluted by noting that of course anyone who is lying, will tell you they are not.
Anyone who commits a crime will tell you they are not. Then they tell that everybody else is lying, so them lying is a non-thing, because everybody else is doing it.
The real strike through the heart of both-sides-argument is that there is no evidence that "everybody is lying".
The only way to objectively discu8ss it is through numbers like 30,573 , like this: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/24/trumps-false-or-misleading-claims-total-30573-over-four-years/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/24/trumps-fa...
