Not believing lying sociopaths is not bad faith, and I’m having trouble accepting that you’d actually think it is. I’m not sure why you’re so hung up on mango mussolini anyway, as this discussion started when I claimed that the right lied way more than the left. The president wasn’t responsible for all the lies the GOP has told for the past 50 years, although he sure does have more than his fair share.
You’re misquoting him - that’s bad faith. Whether or not you believe him is a separate issue. When you criticize someone for what they said, you should address their actual words - not your interpretation of them.
Again, this discussion isn’t about him. You said both sides have plenty of bad faith, which is wrong. In light of this discussion I’m beginning to see why you can’t understand the differences, or just refuse to.
It’s you who brought him up with your smug “fine people on both sides” misquote and its him you’ve been talking ever since. Only now you’re moving the goal posts back to what I originally was talking about.
You said both sides have plenty of bad faith, which is wrong.
What are you even claiming here? That there is no “plenty of” bad faith on the left too?
