That's what politics is now. Or had you not noticed the previous 4 years of performative outrage? In many cases for things far more trivial than 13 dead marines.

It's different from normal conservative outrage

Oh man, a classic you don’t get it, because you’re on “their side” show off!

I think it’s pretty normal outrage for moderates or anyone who leans right to examine the President from afar to the previous administration who got gutted on the reg. Apparently covid was Trumps fault, but Biden is kicking/killing those numbers now a days (with a vaccine in his pocket) & Biden is free of a 20 year evacuation game plan gone wrong. Got it!

You don't grasp context very well.

After the fall of Kabul, in the earliest days of the evacuation, the joint U.S. military and diplomatic coordination team at the airport provided the Taliban with a list of people the U.S. aimed to evacuate. Those names included Afghans who served alongside the U.S. during the 20-year war and sought special immigrant visas to America. U.S. citizens, dual nationals and lawful permanent residents were also listed. - Politico

“Thanks for the kill lists, Joe”. The Taliban

Performative outrage is a great term. I’ve enjoyed/been frustrated by the performative outrage put forth from almost all of the “sides” on any issues (and tbh, non issues) that have come up.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #2844 on:** August 26, 2021, 08:44:37 PM »

Agreed!

nicname · « **Reply #2845 on:** August 26, 2021, 08:50:05 PM »

It’s both humorous and disheartening — but not at all surprising — that it only took ending a war for the msm/mic pitchforks to come out against Biden. Shame on him for slaughtering the sacred cow.

It’s not a card. It’s the truth. You don’t go around ending failed 20-year foreign occupations without the claws coming out. If Trump had won re-election then got us out of Afghanistan, the reaction likely would have been magnitudes worse.

dax, are you 100% aware of what a "straw man" is?
