    Yeah, but we need to be clear, what’s being advocated for by the commenter, and being demonstrated by Harris: it’s not adult behavior, it’s sociopathic behavior.

    Cheney was a mass murderer for personal gain. In some ways, you could consider them worse then other mass murderers, whom at least had some misguided sense of idealism guiding them. A million people died and a trillion dollars in US debt were created, in large part by Cheney, purely for personal greed. Not even greed on behalf of a people or nation. just for himself.

    It’s sociopathic to engage in the act of redemption for a person like Cheney, and it’s sociopathic to advocate for it. It’s not “adult behavior”, it’s mental illness.
