So rumors, wild claims for someone that lied under oath several times along with changing her story several times with no corroborating evidence, and conspiracy theories versus verifiable evidence in Gaetz, multiple accusations in Hegseth case, and literally being found guilty in the Tate brothers case.

Rather than denounce those that still hold power, the right continues to play the "what about" game. Anthony Weiner got caught being a perv and he was ousted almost immediately, no one on the left was defending him. Meanwhile, you have people jumping over backwards to defend right wingers.

Literally in this thread you had someone pulling the "if he was a dem this would've been buried" BS. The last thread we had here on this exact subject had many of our typical F16 posters defending him.

There is crappy people on both sides, unfortunately the right's standards the last 10 years seems to have completely gone out the window in favor of "own the libs" as the only standard that matters.

Did someone defend him here? Closest I have seen is someone questioning the length of time after the incident that the accusation was made. I will speak for me unequivocally, follow the evidence and if Brand did a thing then I support his prosecution or whatever may come.

While both parties have changed over the last 10 years, I think it is without a doubt the left that has had the dramatic change. Yes, "owning the libs" is a mantra, but it feels disingenuous to make the claim that the right has abandoned their values over the last 10 years in comparison to the seismic shift by the left on so many topics. I will take an easy one and point to the open borders policy of the left for the previous 5 years, there are numerous examples of Obama, Biden, Sanders, Pelosi, Warren supporting normal border policies for decades.


ETA: Tate bros are garbage, Hegseth cheated on his wife which I find despicable, and I will not opine on Gaetz because I have not followed it or care about him.

You really need to zoom out and realize neither "team" is run by good people.

It's amazing to me how simple minded and tribalistic some "highly educated" people can be.

Well, at least you admit the right's moral failings have only recently begun

Politics can be so toxic.

I hate what 24 hour news/internet/social media have done to us. All these people so quick to turn everything into right vs left, villainize everyone on "the other side", and argue to the death.

Sickening.

At least you are back tracking a little bit after your beyond absurd opening claim. To claim the right somehow owns this topic. LOL!. There are ****bags on both sides like you said but if the left didn't have double standards, they would have no standards at all. A standard you demonstrated to us on this thread.

And no one on here is defending Brand other than one comment about possible those double standards. I barely even know who Russell Brand is, so I have zero reason to defend him. If he's guilty, then put him under the jail for all I care.

Not sure what happened but I generally don't buy 20-30 year accusations. Offer actual proof. To come after him after this long based on a story is ridiculous. Also makes it extremely difficult to defend. Alibis and other items that could exonerate are difficult if not impossible to come by

Dude bailed on prime Katy Perry after 14 months of marriage. Maybe she was too old for him.

"No matter how hot she is someone, somewhere is sick of her *****"

Also see Johnny Depp.

In Depp's case, he was literally tired of her *****

"Global cooling" was never a consensus academic prediction and global warming / climate change are the same theory and same thing with different titles. You're proving the point about right wing grifting by buying into a right wing grift and expressing it as factual.

You missed his point.

Point = the grift is that the left keeps changing the title and definition to align with what's happening now so the message can't be effectively ostracized. The entire climate movement is much more about wealth redistribution scheme and much less to do with climate. The people in that camp have openly admitted this and told us this. So we should believe them.

There is a reason the term "watermelons" came about to describe them.
