    The amount of mental gymnastics conservatives go through to support their favorite rich pedophiles is absurd. A conservative family member literally reacted to me talking about Trump’s involvement in the Epstein files by saying “so what?”

      “So what” is good. “So what” is the last rung before some variation of “I don’t pay attention to politics”. It means they don’t have a canned response because none is possible.

        ‘so what’ is also the last thing the fascists say before they just start killing you, as we’ve seen they’re already letting chuds murder their daughter in Texas for calling Trump a pedo. They’re building even more concentration camps

        you don’t defeat fascists with the power of arguments and evidence
