    Cute. You edited your post to change it from the Mayor of New York to Cuomo and took out the part implying this was only the thing that Democrats were saying and then responded to my post with this innocent “it was bipartisan!” thing.

      Yes, I confused the mayor and governor in the original post. The bipartisan line was original though.

      Why are you so aggressive?

        There is nothing aggressive in pointing out your dishonesty.

        You’re still being dishonest by ignoring the part about how you got rid of the implication that it was just Democrats doing this.

          There was no implication that just democrats do it, hence why I said “bipartisan” instead of “just democrats do this”.

          Accusing someone of dishonesty instead of rereading what they posted is aggressive. Maybe chill out a bit.

            Yes, you said ‘bipartisan’ after you edited your post which originally suggested it was not bipartisan. So now you’re being dishonest about the chain of events.

            Also, I did read what you posted, which I responded to. You edited to the post to make it as if I wasn’t responding to what you said, which was dishonest. Don’t be dishonest and you won’t be called dishonest.

              No, the original one had bipartisan, I wouldn’t post something I didn’t believe. You must have missed it.

              It feels ridiculous to be accused of not thinking the republicans didn’t side with capital, against the working class.

            The dishonesty is listing a single person (the wrong person at first, I might add) and claiming “bipartisan.”

            We all know that’s bullshit so just stop.

            Did any Democrats do anything shitty during the pandemic? I’m sure. But please stop implying there is any sort of equivalency there.

        We are currently commenting in a thread about dangerous misinformation in which you are providing misinformation.

        I think a certain amount of aggression is warranted, and we’re long past overdue for it.

        Edit: spelling

          Mixing up the mayor and governor of NY, and fixing it 2 minutes later isn’t spreading misinformation, and it’s sure as hell not dishonesty that Flying Squid immediately accuses me of.

          When I criticize democrats for adopting republican policies, I’m not absolving the republicans.
