Aboutism

No debate or anything worthwhile from TWK. Just 2 snarky posts.

But that is what we have come to expect.
... Is aboutism where I point out MORE LOW approval numbers for Biden?

CBS-News - that bastion of Conservative reporting has Joe at 42%
among ADULTS - they had to point that out. Meaning no college joeys
in the poll - or they'd surely DROP the 42% even lower.
Remember - "F*CK JOE BIDEN!" ... University football stadiums
chanting THAT or "Let's Go Brandon!" ...

Putin does it too. That is how he justifies poisoning his political opponents, and invading Ukraine. He does it by whatabouting the riot of January 06, and says he doesn't want things like that to happen in Russia.



Works great !

So many of the GOP on here use "aboutism".



It is their form of making a worthy argument, when it is not an argument at all. It is a failure to admit your own shortcomings and face up to them. Maybe it all stems from Trump, who can't even admit he lost the 2020 election.


This "ism" may be worse than socialism or even communism. Originally Posted by VitaMan

Putin is using the January 06 riot and attack on the US Capitol as justification to invade Ukraine and murdering his political opponents.

I don't know about that one. I can gas light, but that's a stretch.

One was internal, and the other was an attack accross the border. It didn’t hurt Putin's cause, though, to highlight turmoil inside the West's beacon nation.

Putin was well on his way to invasion before our breakdown of democracy.

Putin goes right to that in his press conferences. A reporter directly asks him why his political opponents seem to get poisoned or disappear.



He has this stock answer that he doesn't want what happened at the US Capitol to happen in Russia.


A WHOPPER ??

And yes, Russia has been invaded several times by various European Nations over the years.
I seriously doubt that Putin seriously wanted to take Kyiv due to the impact that the siege of Stalingrad had on him. It was a distraction from his real objectives in the East.
