[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous[b]]JFC[/b] "Getting away with murder" is a figure of speech
I used to say my younger brother got away with murder, and didn't intend it to mean he was a murderer, as in, killed people[/quote]

OOOOOOH!!!! Another double standard for Democrats! Gotcha!

How about this: STFU about Trump ACTUALLY meaning he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and [his] sic supporters would still support him when you pull this Alt-Vocabulary out of your a**. [/quote]Why is everything about Trump? We're trying to discuss Ilhan Omar, here, not the cheeto[/quote]

Not the PP you're responding to and have been away from this thread for a while but I would point out that the cheeto is actually relevant to bring into this conversation  for context and comparables because the shit he says on a regular basis is far more offensive than what Ilhan Omar said.[/quote]

Whataboutism, ergo, irrelevant.  Next.[/quote]

No, it points out the double standards and hypocrisy of jumping all over Ilhan Omar, demanding her resignation et cetera while Trump is allowed to do even worse.  If you aren't doing anything about Trump then I'm not particularly interested in hearing you whine and demanding action about Omar.[/quote]

NP. This is the big flaw in cries of “whataboutism.” Comparisons are often instructive and help keep us honest. Charges of whataboutism are deployed selectively to cover a preferred team’s sins[/quote]
