This "both sides" bullshit only flies until the one side starts actively pushing LITERAL fascist talking points.
What "both sides?"
How many Dem politicians did you see standing up for antifa when they were busy pushing the fash off the streets, Clyde?
Did you notice Biden's running mate? A proud memebr of the institution that was literally protecting fascists when they were marching in the streets?
Again... what "both sides?"
*asks "what both sides?" *proceeds to literally 'both sides' it.
In order to use a "both sides" fallacy, Clyde, you first have to have two opposing sides. The "good cop, bad cop" routine that the US political establishment plays with you doesn't mean there are two opposing sides here.
