The Oswald defenders here are remarkably like the hardcore Trump defenders. To each side their man can do no wrong, has done no wrong, and every claim that they did do something wrong is a lie or falsehood or made up by people out to get them.

Look, it’s very simple. If you want to convince non-WC apologists that Oswald did something wrong, then demonstrate that he did something wrong. Just like if Trump wants to convince people who are not Trump apologists that there was election fraud he needs to demonstrate that there was election fraud.

“Just because I said so” is not a demonstration.

Spoken like a true knee-taking Oswald-lover.

Spoken like an ignorant time-wasting troll who thinks he’s funny and clever.

I don't have to think about being funny and clever

I'm not wasting my time
Not my bad that you waste yours

Troll this, Tex

The Oswald defenders here are remarkably like the hardcore Trump defenders. To each side their man can do no wrong, has done no wrong, and every claim that they did do something wrong is a lie or falsehood or made up by people out to get them. It's all an attack on their boy Lee or Donald (and don't you like how they refer to Oswald as "Lee"?). Oswald apologists: "Don't believe the government, don't believe the official story!" Trump supporters: "Don't believe the government, it's a deep state conspiracy!!"

Oswald apologists say dozens of different people, from members of the Dallas police department to the Warren Commission staffers to the FBI to even ordinary people like steamfitters and waitresses and cab drivers and on and on and on all lied. Or were coached. Or manipulated. Or well, sometimes it's not clear. Because defending Oswald means the ends justifies the means.

But they then turn around and mock the fanatical Trump supporters who do the exact same thing. As the saying goes, you can find anything on the internet.

And just look how the little fellows get all gleeful when someone actually agrees with them

Confirmation-bias writ large. Really large.

Poor baby is sad that he never has anything relevant or consequential to say about anything.

Perhaps we shouldn't be so hard on the guy, John. It's pretty obvious his behavior is just a massive cry for attention, to somehow compensate for a miserable and completely wasted life. No sane individual would behave so pathetically childish as he has been doing in the past months and it seems to be getting worse. I surely hope he gets some help soon...
