    I think I agree with your point that the only reason justice was administered was the massive public outcry, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a bullshit comparison, imo.

      It is not a strong comparison but it has some merit from the perspective that US regime does sanction this behavior from the police but we pretend like they don’t and these are just one off events… That’s happen regularly

      Saudi apologist is using it in bad faith though.

      This a tactic similar to tankies… They ain’t wrong about the criticism of western world but they would never accept the same reasoning to be used against Russia USSR or China

      Their entire argument hinges on westoid spazzing out and if that does not happen, they just spam their pre cut copy pasters

      Fedi shit posters being of higher quality enabled fedi community to isolate the tankie ideology while permitting some semblance of coexistence

      I think I went on the tangent here…
