The 'shithole countries' debate should be about 'why do we want these people...' half of the statement. There's a humanitarian argument to be made there. Instead it's "Haiti isn't a shithole!" Even though it's one of the worst countries in the world. As Alpha said, it's literally got a shit problem as the Cholera problem shows. The crazy amounts of rape and child slavery stuff isn't great. It's a shithole. But that's there line in the sand was inexplicably drawn.
We saw the same thing with Michael Sam. Trying to be first openly gay NFL'r. Nobody wanted to draft him because he wasn't good enough. Left accuses NFL of not wanting him because he's gay.
Colin Kaepernick is a bad QB but right on kneeling is a solid position. But left says people are racist for not wanting him as their starting QB.
Ghostbusters was all girls, which is good, but the movie itself was really bad. But left says it was amazing, and you only didn't like it because you're sexist.
Chik Fil A guy donates to some anti-gay causes, which is fine to complain about. But then they start saying the chicken sandwiches are gross despite them clearly being amazingly delicious.
Louis CK isn't funny any more. Woody Allen movies are garbage. And on and on.
They always seem to tack on these weird indefensible positions to their causes for no reason. I'll never understand why.
No, liberals are not picking bad fights, the GOP got a dangerous asshole put in office. We damned sure DO know what fights we are picking.
