To continue the same, there’s been discussion that the interpretation of the phrase “defund the police” is hitting people to mean “abolish the police” and the GOP is pushing that message hard.

Like the usage of Karen to mean entitled white woman, it doesn’t matter what message or phrase comes from the left; the right-wing will always pervert it to mean something different and nefarious. They live for outrage, just as the TERFs pushing the message that anyone who uses Karen in that way is a bigot against anyone named Karen.

Opposing religious displays on public property doesn’t mean “liberals are making a war on Christmas.”

It doesn’t matter what a message is, whether it’s serious like Black Lives Matter or snarky like Karen. The conservative outrage must be fed a steady diet of false equivalences, and if it ropes in a few well-meaning liberals, so much the better.
