When someone attacks the messenger rather than the message, they’re usually revealing something.
Friday night in Austin, Texas, the Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, fiercely criticized The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, over a recent report about Trump’s troubling attitude toward the military, which he believes should be loyal to him personally. As Goldberg reports, Trump said, “I need the kind of generals that Hitler had,” which is both chilling and historically illiterate.
The article is calling it out, while the poster is claiming that it isn’t calling it out. It’s definitely not deserved here, and they are just being mindlessly outraged. It’s the exact same shit I see from dumbass trump supporters: the facts don’t matter, only the narrative.
