What lie does your side tell that you know is a lie, but you let it slide?

[Anomalism]

Be honest.

There’s something your side says , a phrase, a claim, a narrative, that you know is dishonest. You know it’s manipulative but you say nothing.

Why?

Because it works. Because it serves your cause.
Because if you called it out, your own people might turn on you. So you stay silent, and call it strategy, but deep down, you know it’s just cowardice in team colors. If you only demand integrity from your enemies, you don’t have integrity.

Give some examples of what you think these lies are.

There's a lot of lies, don't you think? I don't have a side to goalie for though. This is more for partisans.

Good grief

It's not the same if you actually read the words.

There are just too many lies. So many that no one has credibility with me.

Yeah it is. You're attention seeking

If you say so.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

If you say so.

Carry on. Nobody cares

 

[JanetTheGreat]

I have "no" side. All parties, etc, are founded on lies. All of them are corrupt. None are to be trusted with much. Simple.

 

[Anomalism]

Carry on.

Thank you.

So you just want to stir shit up while pretending you have no dog in the fight. That's disingenuous.

 

[Woodznutz]

The problems is that when society is founded on lies, it requires more lies to maintain it. Truth has no place.

I really don't have a side I'm loyal to.

I guess my dog is the pursuit of truth to the best of my ability. My ego is tied up in not lying to myself and doing what I can to see what's real. It's not tied up in one side winning. It's more of a personal thing for me.

One side is for the Constitution and law and order, the other is for illegal alien invaders and lawlessness. If you don't know where you stand you probably shouldn't vote.

They’re All Lies, from both sides. That’s why refuse to be part of either side.

 

[Dr. Phosphorous]

Many MAGA voters pretend that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.

But even many of these dirt stupid assholes know it's not true.

For me - honestly very little.
I have openly disagreed with Trump and the corporate puppet Republicans - all the while complaining about the America destroying left.

The Biden admin was based on a bed of Lies
