Of course it’s the case. Leftists do not care about hypocrisy any longer.

My IQ has gotten me exactly where I wanted to in life. My avatar was chosen because I’m a big Rocky fan.

They will simply ignore the double standard as if it never happened. And half the country will too.

Mickey, a question (I love asking you questions because you always give thoughtful answers)

On what single issue do you disagree with biden the most? Even though you will support him, what is something you worry biden might try to do as prez?

I saw many times on tv the health experts commentIng that there were risks associated with the protesting
Do you have any links or articles from non right media saying these things? Just curious.

First off, thank you for saying that

The first thing that came to my mind was his stance shutting down the keystone pipeline. I’m sure there are others, but that’s the quickest one I could think of.

And we saw many of them, including Johns Hopkins, stating that protesting was more important than SAH and social distancing...as long as they were protesting for the right reasons.

You got a semi legitimate link for that one?

It was a comment by a fricking epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins, that was never refuted by the institution.
quote:

“We should always evaluate the risks and benefits of efforts to control the virus,” Jennifer Nuzzo, a Johns Hopkins epidemiologist, tweeted on Tuesday. “In this moment the public health risks of not protesting to demand an end to systemic racism greatly exceed the harms of the virus.”
LINK

Also, this is a tweet from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health.
quote:

"Protesters in Baltimore made it clear that the #COVID19 pandemic does not override the need to address another public health emergency—racism—and many felt they had no choice but to tackle both head-on," writes @AnnaliesWinny for @GHN_News .
LINK

Not that you would care at all.

I saw it from two JH individuals, but nothing from JH.

If John Hopkins itself said anything near that, it would clearly be out of bounds.

That second link goes DIRECTLY to the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health Twitter page.

The school literally tweeted it out.

Well, they did.
