Hmmm. 4 to 1.
Thats weird. That seems like quite a difference to me. It appears no bubbles have been burst.

Wow you really dug deep there.
According to the numbers from two separate Treasury IG reports the number of conservative groups audited by the IRS was 115 and the number of liberal groups was 110.

See Cheezy, that’d how you get someone to google stuff for you. Just pull a number out of thin air. Although I hoped for more ire and burst veins.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

This phenomenon has been referred to as the Internet Bullshit Asymmetry Principle. The amount of time required to refute bullshit on the internet is an order of magnitude higher than the time required to spread it.B-Tender wrote: ↑Sat May 30, 2020 4:43 pmThat quote really wraps it up into a bow quite nicely, doesn't it.

Though it's kinda useless to be debating something that was obviously invented by their Orange Golfing Messiah in order to distract his worshipers from the actual horrible stench of his "leadership."

Yup, they love wasting your time. Antknot wanted me to comment on a statement by Congressman Schiff. But could not provide the statement.
