"Hi. Those Republicans sure are hypocritical, aren't they? In this episode, we take a look at some of the many things they are hypocritical about, and analyze what that says about who they are and what they really believe.
"Note: During a brief discussion of Gamergate in this video, we accidentally used the wrong pronouns to refer to Zoë Quinn, who uses they/them pronouns."
Before watching the video... well, I've already made my opinion of GQP hypocrisy known. I.e. their flagrant hypocrisy is horrendous, but they don't give the slightest shit, because they've learned that they don't need to.
Now, to watch the video, and I'll kind of do things a bit different this time... a sort of "live"-blogging thing, where I write this post as I watch it (well, pausing to write this post, then going back to it), as opposed to writing the whole thing after all is said and done. But I'll go ahead and put the "middle-finger-worthy" tag on here, before I even start, because I know it'll be apt.
Okay, first off, I don't have a "kanye west" tag, and I'm never going to have a "kanye west" tag, but if I had a "kanye west" tag, it would definitely be on this post. To hell with Kanye West forever. Also, to hell with Alex Jones, but that just tells you how far off the deep end Kanye West is now, when he's making Alex fucking Jones, of all people, seem like the reasonable one by comparison. Remember, Alex Jones himself was the guy who made Piers fucking Morgan, of all people, seem like the reasonable one by comparison, back in the day.
Man, I'm only like 8 minutes in, and it's already becoming a Who's Who of RWNJ All Stars video. Kanye West, Fucker Carlson, Elon Musk, Candace Owens, fuck even GamerGate is making a comeback in this shit, Ben Shapiro, Herschel Walker (I guess at this point [30 minutes in] this post has mostly just devolved into listing who is in the video, rather than making any actual commentary about them), Ted Cruz (still don't have and won't make a tag for that doofus), former NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch, Nick Adams (man, this dude just really seems to like Hooters), Matt Walsh (man, this dude just really seems to want to fuck 12 year olds), Marjorie Taylor Greene, Kevin McCarthy, Kari Lake, Steven Crowder, and lastly Donald Trump (took long enough [50-ish minutes in] to finally mention that particular bozo). And a few others like Charlie Kirk, Tim Pool, Matt Gaetz, etc., though they weren't explicitly talked about by Cody, were at least shown on screen by name.
And yeah, as Cody points out at the very tip end of the video, the GQP doesn't have the monopoly on hypocrisy... it's just that they're so much worse/better(?)/worse(??)/better(???) at being hypocrites than anyone else. And it's not necessarily the fact that they're hypocrites that is bad, in and of itself, but that the actual views/opinions/talking points/policy decisions about which they're being blatant hypocrites are the things that are bad (or good, if said things are things to which they are opposed).
