It’s hilarious how they frame bald faced lies. I remember asking a history professor how many permanent jobs/industries the new deal built, I received a similar argument about “good” theft of individual income.
Slavery’s got plenty of them as well. People frequently claim it didn’t end until the 1960’s or 70’s now. That sounds provocative, so you listen to what they have to say, and it’s always “I’VE REDEFINED SLAVERY SO THAT I CAN SAY IT’S STILL GOING ON EVERYDAY IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW.” Then you look across the pond and actual slavery’s still going on and they don’t give a shit.
Or ‘The Great Party Switch’. Then you look into who and when and it approaches nobody and never.
I like getting info from varied sources but it’s increasingly hard not to turn out anything leftist in any context. All they do is word dance.
