The ghost inside targets another Republican lawmaker, this time causing them to harass their peers.
I really wish journalists would stop accepting that excuse. Every time a famous person does something shitty their apology always excuses their own behavior by saying something along the lines of “yeah but that’s not who I am, that wasn’t me. I did it but I’m a better person than that.”
Fucking press them on that. “It’s not you but you did it. So clearly it is you.”
I mean, it’s an elderly person acting strangely and aggressively, not really remembering it, and even when confronted with video evidence claiming that’s not how they act…
They should be straight up asking if she’s going to seek medical evaluation as she’s showing signs of dementia.
We need to stop handling this shit with kid gloves.
The last people to realize they’re experiencing signs of dementia, are the people experiencing signs of dementia.
Maybe they were always horrible people and were just always holding it in. But loosing that ability to hold it in is still a sign of normal age related mental decline.
“Who you are in the dark” is the trope name for how you act when nobody can see or know. Are you actually a good person, or are you only good when you’re being observed by people who’d judge you for being your true self. This is literally the same thing as “Santa knows if you’ve been good” and “God knows what’s in your heart.”
These kinds of people actually need an invisible, omnipresent judge to keep them from committing atrocities. They’re the people who, in a supernatural disaster movie, are the ones who turn to human sacrifice to try and appease whatever horrible thing is rampaging around outside or the alleged god who’s doing nothing to stop it.
Just one of the most nauseating things you will hear a xtian say. And these people will lecture others on matters of morality, claiming you need to be xtian to be moral.
Due to very strong ethical rules, journalists are not allowed to make conclusions on anything said when in “reporting” mode, only when they are in “editorial” or "opinion"mode, which has to specifically be mentioned. It’s why OpEds are strictly labeled. Otherwise, they have to report on what has been said by the parties being reported on.

If she really believed in that omnipresent judge, she wouldn’t behave like that
Nah, you’re thinking too “Old Testament.” Nowadays you can behave as shitty as you want as long as you
buy an indulgence“repent” for it.“I’m not perfect, I’m just forgiven”.

Yeah I actually agree with you

“But you did do it” is simply a statement of fact.
