You really are proving that user right, considering Trump never suggested injecting bleach.
- jonplackett 1y agoI beg to differ. Quote from Trump: “I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute ... is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning?" "Because you see it gets inside the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that” https://www.axios.com/2022/04/26/birx-calls-trump-disinfectant-remarks-a-tragedy-on-many-levels https://www.axios.com/2022/04/26/birx-calls-trump-disinfecta... Edit: found the actual video. Enjoy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zicGxU5MfwE&pp=0gcJCdgAo7VqN5tD https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zicGxU5MfwE&pp=0gcJCdgAo7VqN5t... The guy is a full on moron who thinks he is a full on genius.
- arandomusername 1y agoNever mentioned bleach. Mentioned UV disinfection right before that quote. Never suggested it or said it's a good idea. Just said it's interesting, worth checking out, and has to be done by medical doctors. Completely manipulating and twisting what Trump said to further your agenda - again proving the user above right. Is what Trump said stupid? Yeah. Did he suggest to inject bleach? No
- jonplackett 1y agoOK so he suggested injecting disinfectant. Which is basically the same as bleach. If you can’t tell that from the video I’m not sure what’s going on anymore. He also talks about putting UV lights inside the body, which is still a bit dumb, but not as dumb as injecting or ingesting disinfectant or bleach. If you want to say he is only says it could be ‘interesting’ to inject or consume disinfectant then sure, why not - that’s still insane and dumb in equal measure. He even tries to walk back his comments later saying he was being ‘sarcastic’ which he very clearly was not.
- arandomusername 1y agoWhen you get a wound, it's often a good idea to disinfect it. Do you wash your wounds with bleach?
- freejazz 1y agoWhen you are engaged in a conversation is it a good idea to crater the conversation by myopically focusing on one minor detail, to the detriment of everyone else?
- arandomusername 1y agoWhen your point is defeated and you were wrong, maybe make a new point instead of being hung up on how anyone who points out your blatant lies is nitpicking and focusing on minor details.
- freejazz 1y agoNow you're calling me a liar? Pathetic.
- freejazz 1y agoYou're proving that user right. Taking one minor quibble about what this other poster said, which was obviously not a full recitation of all of Trump's highly questionable conduct over the years (as opposed his less questionable conduct) isn't the slam dunk you're making it. It's more like nitpicking that goes well beyond the point and only serves to demonstrate you interest in arguing small details and not anyone's actual points.
- arandomusername 1y agoNitpicking? Minor quibble? It was the major point that the user brought up. > Just a good time to remember that the same guy who thinks tariffs are a good idea is the guy who stood at a podium during Covid next to the world’s leading expert and suggested injecting bleach into Covid patients was a good idea. First sentence, right here. It's complete dishonest framing to make what Trump said seem as bad as possible. Which just goes back to the parent user's comment: > Everyone on both sides automatically thinks the worst about everyone on the other side these days, usually just to score some internet points.
- freejazz 1y ago>Nitpicking? Minor quibble? It was the major point that the user brought up. Not really. The major point the user brought up: "I would not say anyone is ‘automatically’ questioning Trump’s character or intelligence. There is plenty of evidence he has neither." That's like reading comprehension 101. >First sentence, right here. It's complete dishonest framing to make what Trump said seem as bad as possible. Which just goes back to the parent user's comment: Not really. >> Everyone on both sides automatically thinks the worst about everyone on the other side these days, usually just to score some internet points. Exactly what you did to the other poster. The other poster was clearly saying there is great reason to not assume the best about Trump. Your response? Ignore that and bicker about a minor detail.
- arandomusername 1y agoAnd the bleach argument was the supporting argument for the statement regarding intelligence. > Not really. Yes really. > Exactly what you did to the other poster. The other poster was clearly saying there is great reason to not assume the best about Trump. Your response? Ignore that and bicker about a minor detail. No. The poster used that bleach argument as the reason here - which is a completely dishonest argument. It's not a minor detail. Is this how the discussion should go, in your dream world? - Trump is bad! - Trump is good! - Trump is bad! Since, according to you, actually discussing the exact cases/reasoning brought up is quibbling over minor details, nitpicking.
