It's like when Sideshow Bob was running for Mayor and used ads denouncing Mayor Quimby for letting crooks like Sideshow Bob out of jail.
"That's different! They're white!" -his inner monologue
He immediately whataboutism'd BLM protests, so... yeah it was outer monologue too.
The problem is that hypocrisy doesn't burn them. Logic doesn't matter.
You'll find conservative women against abortion who had an abortion, because "for them it was different".
You'll find them yapping about taxes and "big crime families" but when trump does it "he's just smart and using the system like everyone else".
You'll find them fed up with "giving away free stuff", when they all do sovcit shit and dodge taxes because "fuck biden or wtv".
They have upper class money, but for them it's different, "they aren't rich" and "daddy technically didn't even help".
Theyre all losers who think all their problems are caused by other people.

My favorite article was about some privileged women who were shocked when they found out that when abortion becomes illegal, they can't have abortions anymore.
Because for them, they were called "terminations". I couldn't make this up.
And then they had the gall to proclaim that they would have been the ideal people to show the importance of the matter. Of course, a matter is unimportant until it affects you, the privileged one.

Zero empathy or reflection. Kind of impressive.
Yep. They lie and lie about what an abortion is.
Pleasantly surprising to actually press even that hard during an interview. Interviews should be forcing candidates to explain themselves.
Can we get the actual clip?

Vance's eyes look like the soul has vacated his body long ago
"well, you know... That happened three, ehh four years ago!"
Why did she not ask him if he organized any support for the innocent BLM protestors that did not commit any crimes? Why just the Jan 6 insurrectionists?
The little couch fucking shit weasel. He had an answer and it wasn’t half bad. Then he redirected to his false equivalency bullshit.
That's the worst part, I agree with his point that we shouldn't have blanket prosecutions...just like we shouldn't have blanket pardons.
I think a good followup would have been "Do you believe it is also possible there are BLM protestors who likewise had the book thrown at them?" Bring it back to the question of why they think their "protest" is more acceptable than the BLM protests.
But it's weird, that didn't feel like a modern Republican interview exchange to me. Yeah he's doing the soundbites but he's actually responding with...logic rather than feelings? Or at least as close to logic as a Republican candidate can get these days.
The thing is, the MSM made it clear they are on the side of prosecuting BLM protestors.
The interview equivalent of stepping on a rake.
What the fuck is with the eyeliner lol
All forms of gender-affirming care are valid and should be respected
I'm all for gay people and would never bring extra attention to them, but if I see a closeted homosexual republican doing gay shit imma give em hell cause of the double standards.
Is that crickets I hear? Heh wimp womb Vancey Pants.
This is fucking beautiful.
Bruhhhhhhh
