Stop telling yourself it’s a few bad apples.
The whole saying is “A few bad apples spoil the bunch.” Saying that some people in a group are just a few bad apples doesn’t imply that the larger group is sound. It suggests that the entire group is spoiled.
Edit to add: For anyone who hasn’t seen it, here’s a list of 1,376 (and counting) Republican sexual predators, abusers, and enablers.
That “it’s only a few bad apples” would be a reasonable answer if that system gets rid and punishes those bad apples.
But if the system protects and ignores those bad apples, then the whole system is rotten
It does drive me crazy how people butcher that expression.
Right up there with pulling oneself up by their bootstraps, which was coined to make fun of rich fucks thinking this was somehow possible.
Adding on “The customer is always right”.
People often forget the next few words which are “in matters of taste”.
In which case, yes, absolutely. If a paying customer wants a well done steak with ketchup, sure. Or if they want some ugly clothing. Hell yeah, as long as they’re paying.
It’s not an excuse to act like an entitled asshole.
“…the barrel.” Apples don’t come in bunches, but at the time the saying was coined they were carted around like that. (Also it only took one, not a few.)

What if this takes down Donald and half of Washington?
honestly, I’m perfectly okay with it taking down all of washington, if it comes to that.
This is the part I love. There are MAGA folk who are like “Bill Clinton is in the files too” and I’m like “hell yeah, lock him up”. Shit, lock up every person that visited that island. Drain the swamp, as it was said. If there were democrats that went there, lock them all up. Lock up the movie stars, and whoever else. These are fucking pedophiles.
Win-win.
Lose at BINGO because I do not have “Pizzagate conspiracies coming back to bite republicunts in the ass and take em down in the process” on my bingo card
I have “Previous propaganda subjects backfire” on mine am I still in?
Drain the swamp!
We’re not that lucky.
The entire top level of the current GOP is a pedophile, christofascist cult.

Pedocon theory is a theory in the same way as the theory as gravity, or term theory.
You misspelled pedocon “fact”
‘theory’ in the scientific sense
Right. A theory correctly predicts behavior, until proven otherwise
Someone should cover Tim Minchin’s ‘The Pope Song’, but targeting Trump/GOP.
They should have let him empty his shitbag he looks backed up.
