Like not just " i have misguided opinions" or "im stretching the truth" kind of lies, but the straight up lie where they KNOW they are lying and where they tell you "the square you are seeing is a triangle" kind of lie. I've seen some times over the years before where they lie so blatantly like this but this Yasuke discourse takes the cake with how much they are lying right now.

To be nice requires lying, whereas nothing hurts more than the truth.
Liberals took "oh nice haircut..." white lies to the extreme and now are saying "you look like a real woman!" to crossdressing men that look like deranged clowns.
Today's liberal thinks that they always have to be nice, and so they always have to lie. It's also why they have to demonize anybody else; if conservatives are literally Hitler then when liberals only treat them like deplorables that's being nice - in their mind conservatives 'deserve' much worse.
When they think they're among their own some of them will drop the mask entirely and openly advocate for killing their political opponents. It's unsettling to say the least.
I lived and worked in Portland for a couple years. I can say with 100% certainty and confidence that they absolutely do this. I have heard it myself.

My (actual) boomer mom's friend in PA talked about wanting to "Bonanza" the whole American south to "fix things." I will never forget who it is I have to contend with.
The midwest is starting to get this way on the other end of the scale. "Democrat hunting season" is a meme amongst the rural folk here, but more and more over the last 2-3 years I've noticed many of them have stopped smiling when they say it.
