On the second claim, then my reasoning to use an absolute there is:

Bush Derangement Syndrome was nothing like the reaction to Obama. Literally not the same thing. Not in the same ballpark, not even the same sport.

It was. It absolutely was. MAYBE, if I want to give you SOME point, it was because people were so deranged about Bush that Republicans gave it back to them over Obama, then it might have a case, but Republicans were as deranged over Obama as Democrats were over Bush. And even giving that POSSIBLE reason, it goes to...

There's literally nothing such as Biden derangement syndrome. It doesn't exist.

...yeah, if you claim absolutes, you are absolutely a moron if you believe Biden Derangement Syndrome doesn't exist, you are absolutely so pro-Trump you believe every single Trump supporter firmly was in the side of Biden even though people literally tried to rush the Capitol to try and overthrow the election results because they believed the election was stolen, not only are you absolutely blind if you truly believe Biden Derangement Syndrome doesn't exist, but you probably don't even know Braille to feel out the fact that Biden Derangement Syndrome absolutely exists, just like Obama Derangement Syndrome absolutely existed- and to deny it just proves you are absolutely doing the same accusation of cognitive dissonance you accuse me of. Never before in the history of humanity have the words "no u" been more accurate.

Republicans were as deranged over Obama as Democrats were over Bush.

Nope. Didn't happen. People didn't freak out in the middle of completely unrelated threads and start spittle-flecked rants. Under Bush, I mean Bu$hitler, that happened regularly. Everyone noticed and Bush Derangement Syndrome was coined.

absolutely doing the same accusation of cognitive dissonance you accuse me of.

Yeah, you're using absurd absolutes again. The two sides aren't the same and stop gaslighting everyone.

If I'm using absurd absolutes, it's because you, personally, are absurd and doing the same thing. You are the one saying literally every single Republican ever were fully on board with Obama and Biden from the second they won the election and wanted nothing more than for them to succeed, which is so blatantly false you're the one gaslighting people too. They ARE exactly the same, and it's not absurd in the least to say if you disagree you're objectively wrong.

That's literally not what I said.

It's bizarre that you apparently understood that I said that, but look again. It's not there. You're literally hallucinating.

If you claim ODS or BDS don't exist, then you claim literally every single Republican ever were fully on board. There is no in-between. You may not THINK you said it, but you said it.

ok Nazi.

Oh wait, my mistake. There's an actual anti-Semite here who actually does hate the Jews in this very thread and somehow you're still the biggest idiot.
