βThey did it first, so we have no choiceβ is the simplest and most direct way to get most people to cross all kinds of moral lines that they think they have. Which is why the rhetorical propaganda about the left has been so wildly over the top, and reads from here as so much projection: because for every step in the program they want to do, they need to convince their base that the left has already crossed that line.
