Not like I disagree, but how would you even go about proving that Trump is a liar and not just a fucking idiot? Like, I fully believe he is a liar, but if a paper wants to call him a liar they’d want proof that he knows what he says is untrue.
Then again, even if they had proof there’s a decent chance they wouldn’t call him a liar, because the need to maintain “civility” is far more important to them than almost anything else. Cut a liberal and all that.
Yeah ok sure, but given that the chat existed this isn’t surprising. I’m not enamoured with Reddit’s choices (obviously, we’re on Lemmy), but the reaction here feels pretty dumb.
