[Ivan Denisovich]

I am a liar too, and i bet you have lied too, several times. Does that make us equal to Trump?

I sure lied several times, everybody does. It does not make us equal to trump.

No, but once you sell to somebody that everybody lies often/very/often/all the time, you have paved the road to selling your specific lie: It just another lie, why not believe it? You already believe a lot of stuff from other liars, or dont care about its wrongness, RIGHT?

You have it wrong. Narrative that far right and putin pushes about politicians being liars work precisely because politicians are liars. I'm not intimately familiar with other countries political scene but that's simple fact in Poland. Politicians lie so much that narrative pushed by far right is actually true for once, at least when it comes to other right wingers, who make circa 90% of Poland political scene. Perhaps in other countries this is simply bullshit pushed by far right tools to make everybody look bad but in this bantustan where every lie under the sun was uttered and gov is about as trustworthy as likes of lepen or meloni it's simple fact. Politicians are liars and those who aren't simply does not matter because populace is so used to bullshit that it craves it.

Here, i have some "alternative facts". Facts? What are facts, who has facts? Im gonna make your head swivel now with 1000x more BS im gonna throw at you, once you are drowned in BS, and once you cont tell facts from fabrication.....well here are my (alternative) facts again. Dont look so bad anyomre, dont they, considering you cant trust anyone else either anymore too, right?

There are no such thing as alternative facts but there sure are politicians who lie constantly. Problem with far right isn't that they're always wrong, it's that they might occasionally correctly identify the issue but cure they offer is worse than disease. When it comes to polish politicians narrative about them lying constantly is mostly true and it matters little that it is pushed by fascists. Facts don't change because they're spoken by walking sacks of shit. There is no use in pretending that politicians are honest when they're not - one simply must realize that other side [that is side pushing above mentioned narrative] is filled with liars too and choose those who lie the least and not about something important.
