Okay, I just got a great idea (or maybe I’m just way to tired to think straight). We should make a weekly (or daily?) lib bingo where everyone has a different bingo card and if you have a bingo you post in the weekly lib bingo thread (maybe with sources to the comments you found that give you a bingo). Oh and everyone who has a bingo just replies “bingo” to the lib comment (and maybe with a picture of the card).

We need at least sixteen lib comment tropes for a four by four game or 24 for a five by five game with a free field in the middle. I’ll start to list some:

• both sides / two things can be true (false equivalence)
• lapping up CIA propaganda unquestioned (this covers most instances of comments on China, North Korea, Soviet Union, etc. it would be too easy, if we made separate fields for all of those)
• selective scrutiny (suddenly very careful about sources when reality is biased against their prejudice, ready to believe in any conspiracy theory or to make one up to save their world view)
• empathy gap racism (“I just don’t feel emotionally invested in bad things, when they happen to non-white people.”)
• “That’s authoritarian! Why no, I can’t provide a definition.” (it’s code for anti-imperialism)
• “violence against fascists makes you a fascist”
• vote blue no matter who
• having no memory at all
• Nordic countries “social democracy” is the best possible system
• colonialism is a thing of the past
• the most radical political activity possible is pre-scheduled, non-violent, non-constructive protest, everything else is terrorism

I could make a card, but I need more lib-tropes and shorter names for them.
