The “other side for balance” thing has been compromised and abused for a long time now. Its not for balance. Its to normalise the extreme views they want to push, making people fall for an appeal to moderation fallacy believing the truth to be somewhere in the middle due to its middle-ness.
If they had a rocket launch happening and brought on a rocket scientist from nasa to discuss it, they wouldn’t also bring on a guy who thinks we should cancel they launch because the sky is a giant carpet and the rocket with rip it, for “balance.”
“The left” aren’t pro illegal migration, never have been and never will be. Thats a right wing trope and anyone who falls for it is a moron, sorry. Not allowing in vast amounts of cheap labour, to bring down wages, benefits the people funding the right wing parties, not anyone remotely left leaning. I’m also willing to bet that the bigger problem is the legal migration system the right wing allowed business interests to fuck into the ground, to stop wages from rising.
How do you think tax cuts for the rich are paid for? All the money that should be going towards those things are going into the wealthy pockets of the people who then convince you the problem is anything but them.
The housing crisis for you and me is the record profit boon for landlords and property developers. Very few groups support the right wing more than they do. They’ll have to switch to topping it up with public money going into their pockets soon enough, for a longer term solution, like they do in the UK.
Youre saying they haven’t been in power for 6 years but its still all their fault? That seems a stretch.
I never said that once let alone continued. Please drop the victim complex and some people do stupid things. I do stupid things too. However, believing the right wing will save people from themselves is a stupid thing i don’t do. But sure, keep acting the victim and blaming everyone else. See if that makes me vote for you.
I can do that too you know. I just choose not to.
