Thinking back now, I would've asked her if she thought a Mexican immigrant who has not done anything should be allowed to cross the border illegally to make the double-standard even starker, but my brain had been so fried by her admission that I didn't. I could feel it sizzling.
Nothing makes sense until you can truly mentally accept that there's no objective standard, there's only
"my team good,
anything pro-them =good,
anything anti-them or pro-anyone else =bad."
Any claim that they're mad about X, think X should be punishable etc, is reasoning backwards from there.
Back the Blue...except at the Capitol
Rule of Law...except for Trump and NYPD officers speeding families
Campus Free Speech...but only for young conservatives
No government subsidies to welfare queens...except farmers
No free handouts... except to Elon Musk, a new corporate HQ or sports stadium
Farmers wouldn’t need subsidies if they were allowed to set their own prices rather than have grocery conglomerates dictate them. The farmer who grows your daily bread makes about a nickel a loaf. His inputs to grow the wheat costs more per loaf than that. So your taxes make up the shortfall
