My god the Irony and Hypocrisy of this new Biden administration.

Lets see, we have a press conference, on federal land, in a federal building, discussing how important Bidens new mask mandate is that makes it illegal not to wear a mask on federal land or in federal buildings...

and yet, the speaker isnt wearing a mask, literally as she explains why we the public will get arrested for doing the very thing she is doing as she announces it, and the very same thing Biden did just the day before.

Biden is and always has been above the law and this is just more of the same, take away everyone else's rights, but of course it never applies to Biden.

@louiscouture ummm, obviously.. nor did I suggest they were. This is why I pointed out how **both** of them (as seperate people and all) violated the very law they just enforced.

@freemo but I think Biden was alone in the capitol at the point where he didn’t wear a mask

@louiscouture

1) He was not alone, in fact the speaker even pointed out in her response that he wasnt alone mentioning some of the people that surrounded him.

2) the law he passed does **not** make exemptions for being alone or for when you have distance between yourself and others. So even if he was alone or sufficiently distances this is no excuse if we are to judge him by the same standard the order he passed judges us.

@freemo maybe it’s just a mistake or forgot to put them on. Sure he should have put on that mask but he still did it 99% or the time, is that really worth cancelling him over this? Also, Joe Biden didn’t wore a mask before the law took place, he isn’t breaking his own laws, because the law wasn’t in effect.

@louiscouture That is some weak excuse man... I never said he broke the law for starters, I said he was a hypocrite.

Second if he feels it so strongly that it should be illegal then he should be walking around doing it, the fact taht he did it less than 24 hours before signing a law doesnt get him off the hook.

Third if its so easy to "just forget", and if that is entierly excusable then.. and ill say this slowly... dont... make... it... a... law.

Fourth and more important.. no I wouldnt cancel Joe biden **just** for this, the laundry list of horrifically immoral things that man has done wouldn't have this small infraction anywhere near the top of it. He was canceled long long ago before this particular misstep. But it does show my judgement of his character as a horrible person is consistent and correct.

@freemo but he isn’t a hypocrite because he never broke his own law.

@louiscouture That makes no sense.

If you decide you are going to pass a law, you have decided the thing you are making illegal is immoral, wrong, and hurtful to others. Therefore if you violate it, even if you do so in the hours before it comes into effect, you are violating the very ethical code you are trying to enforce on others via the law.

Can you only be a hypocrite if you pass a law then break it? that sounds absurd to me. Biden, and anyone else would be just as much a hypocrite if no law were even passed and all he did was say "it is wrong to not wear a mask" and then walk around not wearing a mask. your grasping at straws to excuse his behavior.

@freemo alright I’ve seen the video, he is alone, with someone at 2 m distance and literally nobody else. This is just a manufactured outrage by Fox News. There was no transmission possible. The law is really more meant for federal buildings with many people inside like airports. It’s funny that suddenly people care about laws and ethics because the past president had none and broke many laws.

@freemo I’m not saying he shouldn’t have gone to that building without a mask, but it’s really not as big of a deal as the complete shitshow the trump administration was, and I remind you it literally tried a coup.

What’s really hypocritical is that the trumplican side suddenly cares about laws and ethics where they give no damn during the last 4 years.

Why are you even mentioning Trump right now? What does Trump have to do with the conversation on any level.

> I remind you it literally tried a coup.

I presume "it" is Trump here? Not that it is relevant to the conversation but Trump never tried a coup, no idea what your talking about, he said he would leave peacefully when asked early on, when a small handful of people got violent in his name he quickly got on TV and told them to stop and go home, and he left the office on time and without any trouble. In fact he even said some nice things about the incoming administration in his farewell address.... so not sure what your even talking about here.

What Trumplician side. I was literally anti-trump for 4 years straight and im still calling biden out on this shit and think Biden is a horrible president... Trump has absolutely nothing to do with this conversation on any level.
