9/11: 3000 Americans dead. GOP: "Let's start a war." CV-19: 666,000 dead: "No we won't vax or mask."

How do you explain this double standard?

[madamesilverspurs]

1. There's money in war.

Not so much in a virus.

[Doodley]

4. Thanks. What about the average Republican who was fired up about 9/11 but complacent about CV-19?

[Pinback]

6. They think killing Muslims is more fun than killing microbes. (nt)

[Boomerproud]

7. Nailed it.

[Dawson Leery]

2. The "War On Terror" was the best of both worlds for the right.

A war against dark skinned non-Gentiles which allowed them to take billions upon billions of $$$$$$$$.

[Doodley]

5. Yes, anger against "foreigners" is always a great trigger for the right.

3. Correction

Started two wars

Otherwise accurate

8. They're not the ones who would have to fight in a war

But they are the ones being asked to minorly inconvenience themselves by putting on a mask.

[Salviati]

9. They are eager to be cruel for our country...

... but refuse to be kind for it.

10. Only one member of Congress voted against the authorization of the use of force

Only one.

11. They would love to see all the current chaos devolve into a war n/t
