I feel like that quote is easily wrong. Hell, I’ve done things I know are wrong (on small, minor things, like leaving work 15 minutes early and not taking leave or calling in sick when I’m not, because fuck it).

Then again, I guess I don’t think it’s entirely wrong, either. Because yeah, there are lots of people who truly believe their unethical/immoral actions are in the right. But I also think those people are often victims of indoctrination and/or they are sociopaths.

I could see that as preemptive propaganda. If the Dems were the cause of the shutdown, the GOP could blame it on them. The GOP were very vocal this time around about “falling in line” to get it passed, assuming that the Dems were going to filibuster it.

But yeah like others have said in the thread, Schumer went about this all wrong, even if he had valid reasoning/concerns.

Context matters. Alito has done a shit ton more with the GOP than just their wife donating to them.

Haha, my brain legit assumed it was going to be an article about scams for a few seconds while reading the headline.

Anyway, truly hope he wins and Shell is forced to fix their fucking mess.
