          That’s such a tragically American thing to focus on. Did the Clinton impeachment farce teach you people nothing?

            “You people” is a phrase that applies to Americans, but there are two distinct groups involved in both events.

            The “Clinton impeachment farce” was about a young unmarried girl giving a blow job to a married Democratic president in a private room of the White House, which is a whole different set of impossibly difficult moral conundrums for American right-wingers to navigate – and which had to be punished by impeachment. There was no other way, because there was Sin involved, and the right wing is comprised primarily of Christian-labeled Sin judgers, who spend a great deal of time both hunting for and judging other peoples’ Sin. It’s what they did, it’s what they do, and both Clinton and Lewinsky were Other People. Who Sinned. With each other. In the White House.

            The more recent event, a mid-divorce and very right-wing female Boebert getting mutually handsy with a male date in a theater where kids were also present, is morally negligible to that same crowd; it amounts to her paying a little something toward the dinner check as far as they’re concerned, and they probably think it both her place to do so and rude if she hadn’t. She is not Other People. The rules are simply waived, because of her membership. None of the same people who excoriated Clinton have spoken up with a single word to chastise Boebert or even to suggest they think otherwise. All I’ve heard have been appreciative comments on her rack, and not a single word of censure (apparently they saved all that for Fetterman’s attire in the Senate, because again, he is Other People).

            Totally different things. Surely you can see that.
