I’ve never met a both-sides-suck-er who leans anything but hard right.

Depends how you define “sides.”
To the general public, that’s most of us here (Sides = Parties).
You are probably also talking about those who aren’t politically inclined (pre-Trump).
Don’t know how many 20+ year hardcore Fox viewers (her) would say both sides suck (including Trump).
I know I’m setting myself up for potential disappointment.
Simply giving a more accurate picture to my anecdote that the convo spurred. She’s already watched DW (BBC before) and Al Jazeera for years. It’s why the Trump loyalty was so confounding: she should know better.
Maybe it’s the way it’s said. Anyone who leads with “both sides suck man” is always right. Lefties just complain about neoliberals or something. They don’t lead with “both sides suck”.
Well conservatives are being disingenuous and liberals know to keep it to like-minded company or you’re hurting the cause.
You know any liberals that tell everyone they’re really classical conservatives or watev?
eta on a reread:
Sure, bc it’s self-evident.

Both groups are correct that the politicians are using them and aren’t true believers ftmp.
In Australia I’ve never met one either. Also never met a ‘not telling you who I voted for’ who didn’t vote right.
I always get sucked in too. Like ok this guy claims to be an independent free thinker who doesn’t swear allegiance to either party. Then he posts the bombshell that icebergs melting doesn’t raise sea level - and all those dumb dummy scientists can’t even figure that out.
I’ve made a gentleman’s wager with three people on Facebook about who will be the POTUS after Jan 20th. All I asked them to do was reflect on all the ways they’d been lied to if it’s Biden and not Trump. I’m not optimistic about how it’s gonna go but it should be interesting either way.
One of them told me if he’s right I have to make a post admitting I was wrong and he said he would do the same. I am looking forward to seeing what he does when the deadline passes.

Everyone knows the Biden inauguration was a deep fake and the real government had moved to Mar A Lago.
Someone posted that now they’re saying Trump will be inaugurated in April for some reason. So this is probably what they’ll all say.

I think they could actually just show people the 2017 inauguration on OAN and tell their audience its live. I’m not sure their audience would doubt it.

Please keep us posted. That’s a great idea.

I figured it was a way to roll everything up into this one thing instead of having to debunk their endless claims. Couldn’t have done it a year ago but now the people they’re getting this stuff from have committed themselves.
I figure it’s going to be like a doomsday cult that grows its membership each time doomsday comes and goes but that will be worth watching too.
They basically want this to happen, under the auspices of child trafficking or treason with China or whatever.
yea the going line right now seems to be a military coup installing Trump, but it would be fine because then the crimes of the left and others will be shown to the world.

These are people who still believe most of the damage was done by antifa, despite every single person arrested being a hardcore Trumper with years of social media to prove it. They are completely impervious to facts.
I’d have to watch the Youtubes he sent me more carefully, but my vague understanding is it wouldn’t be a coup. Something about the insurrection act was already secretly invoked two years ago and the Capitol riot was a covert op, the purpose of which was to collect Democrat laptops for evidence of them being in the pedophilia ring or something. Trump administration allowed the Democrats to believe they had won so they would all gather to be arrested at the inauguration.
And the horned guy is actually a special ops guy who led the laptop collection mission.
