In our current panopitcon, lies work. Turns out if an entertaining man lies again and again into a mechanism (the Internet) that endlessly amplifies and repeats those lies for free (paid for by all of us with our attention), you can win.

If you can't see by now that there were a lot of lies on both sides (as has always been true since the dawn of politics), you need to reevaluate your information diet.

  Have I missed the news where Kamala Harris was convicted on a few dozen federal charges or ordered to pay 80+ million to someone she sexually abused? There's lies and then there are lies that can get you into prison.

    They were lying to you that a senile man was fit to lead for the next four years. That alone would have been far more consequential for the country than any lie related to sexual deviancy (of which the Democratic party has certainly had its fair share over the years).

  Was the 2020 election stolen?

The failure of realize how mainstream media lied and covered for Kamala and the Democratic party in mind blowing here. Just one tiny example, "Joe Biden is in top shape" a month before he pushed out.

  Honestly if the Dems put as much effort into finding a candidate people like as they did into making sure the establishment candidate had as much positive press as possible, they might actually accomplish something.

  This so much. Meanwhile hiding true stories like the Haitians eating dogs, Hillary's child sex ring, and FEMA stealing people's houses.

    You're being sarcastic but there was a video from Ohio posted a year ago and retweeted by Rufo after the debate. In it, the cameraman in an African American accent was exclaiming that his neighbors were grilling cats. Hard to verify that they were cats from video resolution and distance to the grill, but they were distinctively four-legged, skinned, and three of them fit on the grill at once...

        It doesn't show it. :( But I googled around and found this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbjuctKts9M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbjuctKts9M Unfortunately, there is no confirmation that it's actually cats on the grill, or that the cats were someone's pets, or that the grill belongs to a Haitian immigrant, and the video says it's from Parkwood, Pennsylvania. I really wanted it to be true so that I had something to believe in, seeing as Trump doesn't have any policies for me to believe in.
