@rrb@infosec.exchange @26aafa19@mastodon.social @ravenbait@mastodon.scot @cstross@wandering.shop @nathanael@exquisite.social @ploum@mamot.fr I love how they will say something despicable and then claim "you're taking my words out of context!" but then you read their entire remarks and the quote sounds *even worse* in context.
An example of a quote taken out of context is "you didn't build that" from Barack Obama. This chud calling the poor "stray animals" sounds way worse when you add "because they breed."

@rrb @26aafa19 @ravenbait @cstross @nathanael @ploum see also every bigoted Charlie Kirk quote that we were told was taken out of context. The "context" was just him further justifying his bigotry. The context was him saying the bigoted quote and then *standing by it*. You didn't need the "context," he agreed with the original quote. He spent his last seven words dehumanizing not one but *two* unrelated minorities.
