I’m 100% okay with that. This isn’t about political affiliation or cheerleading, it’s about getting predators and pedophiles exposed and (though it’s probably wishful thinking given who the pedophiles are) in jail.
That’s the theme that MAGA just doesn’t get, and why the “both sides” arguments never hold water. I don’t like anyone in the mega-wealthy class who believes the law is for sale, including the Trump family. MAGA claims to have the same distain for the “elite class”, but always makes a special carve-out just for Trump and his loyalists. I don’t get it.
It kinda mirrors the difference between monotheism and atheism: if you made a list of all the gods both groups don’t believe in, the lists would look awfully similar, differing only by one. But good luck making that argument to a god-fearing Christian.

Political tribalism with a heaping spoonful of introspection avoidance.
It doesn’t matter to them if the other team gets hurt. As far as MAGA is concerned, liberals and progressives (“the Dems”) had it coming and deserve the consequences. But, if their own team gets hurt, that’s simply unacceptable because they are the good guys.
That’s why they’ll look the other way if Republicans, MAGA, QAnons, or Trump supporters are caught out as pedos, extremists, rapists, or criminals. It’s an uncomfortable truth that doesn’t align with their reality. They would have to accept that they’re wrong, so they deflect and distract not to convince others but to convince themselves and protect their egos.
they also have different disdain than democrats, they hate them because they arnt as richa s they are, and would love to be someday. they see it that way.
But that is the republican mindset. “We can’t go after X because that would hurt our team” versus the moral response of “Cool. Round up all the people raping children and chemically, or physically, castrate them”
If they release this like half of the Republican party is going down lol.
It’s not just Republicans or politicians. Powerful people are on that list.
and democrats. heck anyone famous and male from the early 2000s.
All should be equal under the law. A peasant and a king must follow the same rules, or they simply lose meaning.
If they did the crime, they should burn for it!
I mean the biden administration had those files for all four years and didn’t release them. They would have been the biggest October Surprise ever.
Of course the name of at least one high-ranking centrist democrat is in there.
The files have only been released since the start of 2024, so they were only a year in their possession.
Still not good of course.
Let the bodies hit the floor.
There’s a fair few women on that list.
