Yes they are hypocrites, no they do not care. Trump doesn't care when libs call out his hypocracy. Biden doesn't care when we do his. The only thing they ask themselves is "are we winning?" and their definition of "winning" is domination. The american oligarchy is nothing but a cabal of vampires that is leeching the life blood out of the rest of the world and turning us to dust figuratively and literally.

Speaking truth to power is folly. Power knows the truth and doesn’t care.

I thought that up on my lonesome just now, but I’m not surprised to discover I’m not the first.

Surely by now liberals have realized the folly in assuming justice is delivered by “speaking truth to power”? Power knows the truth, and determines what gets to be the regime of truth.
