Description
I hate explaining jokes, but this probably needs a disclaimer before everyone goes nuts: I am NOT defending John McCain. Just pointing out how ridiculous it is to judge an aspiring Congresswoman for not talking like she's on r/ChapoTrapHouse.Related content

You're not new to this. Please stop acting like you are.

Yeah, her remark on McCain's death was more of a PR thing, I suppose.
Your drawing here did make me laugh, though.

I mean, she could have phrased it better, but this really wasn't worth risking her entire political career over. There are so many bigger things to get outraged about.

Oh, absolutely.

Is this what left unity looks like?

Nothing unites radicals like trashing someone for being less radical.

I have actually gotten a bit addicted to Chapo Trap House as of late (mostly for how epicly they roast reactionary assholes in general, and certain conservative dingbats in particular - case in point, their repeated evisceration of Ben Sharpio's shitty novel "True Allegiance": www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1FLVn… ), but I see your point that judging people for not acting like CTH or CTH fans with their same profane sense of humor is not a good idea.

CTH is great! I don't agree with them on everything, but they're funny as hell and doing a lot to make Leftist ideas more popular. It's just that some of their fans really need to take a little break from the internet until they remember that memes and irony are not always the right approach to politics.

What is ya'll take on the near veneration of McCain anyway? PR-hype for a 'maverick' who did nothing of any concrete value against Trump and the Republicans? Centrist adoration for someone they actually really agreed with? Something else?

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to use a bunch of big words.
