Because I don't disagree with those points. But the idea that there is nothing 'noticeable' from the left shows they're a) maybe better at it and/or b) saying things that are believed at face value because they align to beliefs.

For the other commenter to be so entirely blind to their side's propoganda should at least cause pause for reflection.

your supposition regarding a) and b) are pretty unconvincing, they're on the level of conspiracy theorists who say that a lack of evidence is just stronger evidence of the conspiracy

frankly your claims of equivalency are pretty unconvincing, too, but that's neither here nor there, since the topic is one specific side, not "both sides" or how you personally think they're equivalent

anyways, let's get back on topic to where we were before the whataboutism reared its ugly head (and we can both just pretend like you haven't been attacking the commenter themselves): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35397668
