It checks out, because any time you make a valid criticism, you have to disavow every other example of the thing you're criticizing, acknowledge that the Republicans would be worse even though that's a given, tell them your entire voting record, hate the correct news sources, acknowledge all the good things (insert current politician they defend uncritically) has done, and then maybe you can say something like "I think Biden shouldn't send more weapons to Israel"
Only to have them call you a commie Russian tankies from China, who is posting from your troll farm, and then they let you know that the adults in the room are making the hard decisions.
You're supposed to jump through all these hoops but they can just unironically say things that are state department talking points
