          I hope you’re being sarcastic…

          If you really think this started with Trump and stopped with Trump, that’s what they want.

          This is simply a continuation of Cointelpro and we saw the same tactics used against college campus protests under Biden.

            Of course it’s someone from ml that can’t take a joke without getting upset that I didn’t call Biden a genocidal fascist.

              Of course it’s someone from world who posts perfect “poes law” bait and then cries about ml users. I literally started with

              I hope you’re being sarcastic…

              The followed with

              If you really think

              So here’s a tip for the future.

              if 1 of 2 conjunction ˈif əf

              1 a : in the event that b : allowing that c : on the assumption that d : on condition that

              that I didn’t call Biden a genocidal fascist.

              Cointelpro and government crackdown on any opposition to the right wing liberal order goes well beyond Biden, it just continued under him. You’re showing your absolutely unserious and reactionary team sport mentality.

                Their comment specified “For Trump”

                That implies that they are doing the same thing, but for Biden. Obviously.
                How do you not get that?

                You won’t see what I chose not to say here. I don’t often have random vitriol for internet strangers, but goddamn.

                  No it doesn’t. They could be implying it was a Trump specific policy.

                  “they did this specifically for Trump, they probably don’t do it anymore”

                  Vs

                  “They probably don’t specifically do it for Trump anymore”

                  Without knowing them or making assumptions I can’t fill in which interpretation they went with, hence why I said “I hope you’re being sarcastic”, implying I hope they were more in line with the 2nd interpretation.

                  You won’t see what I chose not to say here. I don’t often have random vitriol for internet strangers, but goddamn.

                  If this is what broke you down, I really don’t believe that lol.

                    Okay.

                    I gotta admit. I don’t care.

                    And shit - do you see what they’re doing to the campus protestors? They are all fucking bad and we live in a police state.

                    But you’re throwing stones because someone didn’t contort their comment to equivocate Trump to Biden, who wasn’t a topic of conversation?
