(2,720 posts)It's amazing you think people are stupid enough to fall for this!
When headlines like this:
"Liberal advocates of a police state turn savagely against Edward Snowden"
...are upvoted on D.U. on a daily basis, as if mainstream Democrats and the President are in favor of becoming North Korea, it's plainly obvious what I'm referring to. (And I'm not even going to go into the constant anti-Democratic screaming in the comments.)
Quoting someone's exact words, but then switching the context around so that it looks like they're responding to something else is so much a FOX trick. Seriously, you should go work there. You're a natural.
And by the way, I went through your history, pulling out this gem:
"Wow! Voice one teensy concern about the policies of our POTUS, or any other politician du jour, and all-of-a-sudden... PURIST!".
Clearly this line of characterizing bullshit flamebait as a "teensy concern" and "just asking questions" is something you've been called on in the past. Like when you called out Mindmover for being a male chauvinist pig for liking a picture of a scantily clad model when she's really a woman without the need to conform to the cultural imposition of sex-negativity that you think she should have.
