(29,402 posts)Democrats get mad -- Biden isn't a power-hungry insane senile egomaniac dictator who'd refuse to step down if he couldn't do the job, kill us all with nuclear bombs because he pressed the wrong button. Nobody is saying Biden is young and his age is a hoax. Nobody remembers the eight years he was VP, the joke memes with Obama, jokes about his gaffes?
People who believe both sides see nothing wrong with the false equivalency, it's truth to them. The rest of us live in the real world.
I saw the movie "Irresistible," a political satire, and the false equivalency was immediate. I was confused until I looked it up. Jon Stewart movie. Fantasy world where there isn't any policy or personality difference between Republicans and Democrats, everyone is nice and wants to raise taxes, built schools, help The People.
