  • No, it’s not. You’re not an enlightened tolerant and rational human being by claiming both sides are equally at fault.

    Just one example: I’d agree with you, if both sides would make equally as many false claims. But that’s not the case..

    It’s not “Only your side is bad and my side is good”. There ARE liars on both sides. But that shouldn’t lead to the conclusion that both sides are telling equally as much lies.

    Why is that so important? Because you would totally miss out on the rhetorical tactics they use to push their agenda. Take Trump’s caravan, Hunter’s laptop, false election claims. All of them were lies, but had a massive impact. Show me equally as bad examples the Democrats use to push their narrative.

    Also, you can check, if you are open minded or not with the help of something called falsifiability. Ask yourself:

    1. What kind of proof would change my mind about this?
    2. Is there substantial proof?
    3. (Don’t) change your mind.
