In reply to the discussion: Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement. [View all]Ilikepurple
(386 posts)You are selective about the truths you stand up for, as we all are. It doesnt make us as bad as Trumpers. It makes us human, or finite beings at the least. Im at a loss why you picked this one to dig in so hard youve distorted the statement you want to refute. Your replies reeked of gotcha argumentation where the person thinks if they can get someone to admit to be mistaken about one statement, the rest of their statements are probably or necessarily false. This is a favored method of attack by the right. Ask Dan Rather or watch news pundits.
Your second sentence This was a simple thread about Pelosi retiring and they chose to drag a bunch of other crap into it is most likely what this is really about.you could have just posted that his is a thread commemorating Pelosis long and storied career and that if Bluetus wants to celebrate her retirement, Bluetus should start another thread. Youre replies seemingly were not about defending the truth as much as defending the old guard of the Democratic Party. That is the lie Im standing up to.
Im not even sure if I know what bad as a Trumper means. Do you mean as loose with the facts? If so, I am not as bad as a Trumper and dont believe Bluetus is either.
