The desperate need to always make analogies just to defend Biden is something else. Analogies should only be used if they add something to make understanding the subject easier. But it also assumes the other side is not intelligent enough to understand the subject in the first place.
You wouldn't use analogies to explain the newest Quantum mechanics to Einstein. You could use them to introduce them to a person with a poor math/physics background maybe. But at the end you wouldn't assume the person who "kind of gets it" through an analogy to actualy come out knowing about said topic. You teach an analogy to a kid to help, you don't make the analogy the entire subject and replace the actual topic.
So yeah, all these dipshits using analogies are just saying "hey you pathetic manchild that doesn't understand how democracy is supposed to work, here let me dumb it down for you all why you need to vote for my candidate. So imagine a restaurant menu..."
What do they expect? A bow and a thank you mr democrat asshole I understand democracy now and will proceed to vote for the person you just told me to. The only response should rather be a punch in their face.
You know maybe that's it? Maybe they think opposition to genocide is some kind of petulant childish stupidity and they "really" understand politics
Yeah I've been around the block a few times and seeing any sort of analogy in an argument makes me just kinda disregard it. Just talk about the real thing. It isn't that hard.
Secondarily I would say it is not a good argumentative tactic to play in the analogy's world to show why it's a dumb analogy. Just reject analogies on their face.
