Oh yeah, I forgot about this. What a trip.
For a refresher, The Lincoln Project had a few of their staffers show up at a conservative candidate’s rally pretending to be far-right chodes.
Bluechecks “organically” noticed it, and started expressing their “legitimate” worry that this conservative must be far-right and dangerous and all that if he’s appealing to tiki-torch wielders.
Then the autists rolled in, and started identifying the people in the photos, noting that they were mostly DNC staffers of one kind or another.
Story gets dropped, the staffers identified locked and deleted their social media accounts, and later a story comes out saying it was all a big misunderstanding, which, it may have been.
@dave just when I think you're full of it you root up a gem like this
I think “full of shit” here is just a difference in perspective and values, which we probably do have. I might leave thoughts out to try to be diplomatic, but it’s extremely rare that I’m outright dishonest about something.
