The liberal media has long had a record of disregarding facts, creating and clinging to a narrative that suits them. So-called journalist Aaron Rupar is no exception.
Responding to Washington Post reporter Amy Gardner, who tweeted about the disconnect between liberal cries of voter suppression and the reality that the Georgia Election Integrity Act of 2021 has promoted record voter turnout, Rupar’s hot take was ridiculed mercilessly on social media.
They are, of course, talking about the same law that wound the left up so tight they spun out of control and demanded that the Major League Baseball All-Star game be pulled from the Atlanta venue last year.
Voting is surging in Georgia’s upcoming primary, undercutting Democratic claims that a new election law would make it harder to cast a ballot, my latest from the Peach State, with @mrbrownsir https://t.co/wP44HUSWNo

The Post’s story surprisingly had some inconvenient facts that flew in the face of the doomsday predictions that there would be widespread difficulty to cast a ballot in the Peach State.
“But after three weeks of early voting ahead of Tuesday’s primary, record-breaking turnout is undercutting predictions that the Georgia Election Integrity Act of 2021 would lead to a falloff in voting. By Friday, the final day of early in-person voting, more than 700,000 Georgians had cast ballots — three times the number in 2018, and higher even than in 2020, a presidential year,” the newspaper reported.
Regardless of these facts, Rupar tweeted, “Pretty glaring fallacy in this tweet – just because more people are voting doesn’t mean it’s not harder to do.”

Sure Aaron, obviously multiple hundreds of thousands of new voters really must have really struggled to muddle their way through the difficult process to cast an early ballot in Georgia.
People weren’t going to swallow his false narrative pill and their reactions created a firestorm of mocking on social media, as seen here:
you meant glaring fallacy in your own tweet right https://t.co/pUMLdCgmSc

So what does it mean then? More people voting suggests that it’s somehow harder to do? How the hell does turnout increase then? https://t.co/fMCQJA5wBQ

But Rupar really is his own worst enemy.

Others offered advice to the man who was obviously grasping at straws to hold on to his belief that voter suppression was real, and was caused by the new voter integrity law.
“Just because the thing I said would happen didn’t happen doesn’t mean that the thing I said would happen isn’t happening.”
I value loyalty, Aaron, rest assured, but your loyalty to this line of rhetoric will only yield diminishing returns.
I suggest you find a new angle. https://t.co/BnMIe3XBme

“There is none so blind as one who will not see.” Gardner is being willfully ignorant ~ That is, being ignorant on purpose, deliberately ~ And “Willful Ignorance” is a classical definition of stupidity!
Easy as pie to vote in Georgia!
According to data gathered by Georgia Votes, 539,297 people cast ballots in the state as of Tuesday, far exceeding the 182,684 votes by the same point during the 2018 midterm primary elections.
The numbers have even overwhelmed those of the 2020 presidential election by 156 percent, despite election officials at the time promoting early and mail-in voting to decrease crowd size during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Poor Mr. Rupar obviously doesn’t understand that not all arguments are deductive acts if he wants to talk about “fallacies” and then leave the argument there. Then again, if he’s saying something is fallacious as if that’s enough to do away with it, that’s a good sign he doesn’t get logic, either. That he’s guilty of denying the antecedent in his tweet just makes that more palpable.
So saying, we’d expect less voter turn out if voting got too hard. Maybe it is harder to vote under Georgia’s new law? (I doubt it.) But so what? It means it’s not too hard, even if it’s more difficult, and also suggests people trust the new laws more. Isn’t that a decent trade-off? Anyone would say so, if he really cares about making sure people’s voices are heard.
Just because I’m Stupid doesn’t mean I say Stupid shit and just because I say Stupid shit doesn’t mean I’m Stupid. Wait what did I just say…
Aaron again has demonstrated that he still has his head where the sun don’t shine.. LET’S GO BRANDON! WeLoveTrump.com
I think Rupar just solidified my thoughts that there are just as many stupid a** people in mainstream media as there are in the Democratic Party. Maybe more.
Demoncrats are just angry that it’s harder for them to cheat
LIBERLOGIC at work!!
As Orwell stated, the left wants to convince people that “up is down”, black is white”, “in is out”, etc., etc. All one has to do is some critical thinking to realize how dangerously upside down left speak and left think are.
Yes, but when a person starts his/her premise while they are upside down, nothing they do or say fits what for the rest of us is Common Sense!
It’s supposed to take a little effort to vote.. Otherwise the right to vote is not respected and is abused by those who are too lazy to spend the smallest of effort to do so.
1000% correct! It’s not only a right to vote…It’s our duty!
Rupar is an online blog ah- ole whose disgraced name has become a verb meaning to lie and/or deliberately mislead. He is known to be one of the most deliberately deceptive and stupid self-styled ‘journalists’ in America. Anyone who knows his address should publish it so that anyone wanting to meet him can do so. “Around March 2021, Rupar’s misleading video of Georgia police officer Jay Baker detailing the reason for the 8 Atlanta spa killings by suspect Robert Aaron Long ended up provoking a Chinese propaganda site.
Rupar shared a clip of Baker claiming that Aaron Long had a “really bad day” that led him to murder eight people, including six Asian women. Baker was originally relaying the suspect’s exact statements, but Rupar’s tweet framed Baker for speaking warmly about the white murder suspect. The situation ran viral in the press and brought forth accusations of racism. Baker was even accused as the case’s spokesman.
The situation surged as a China-based media outlet China Xinhua News retweeted the news with the hashtag stop racism. Rupar’s neglect of the context of Baker just articulating Long’s phrasing was later chastised by mainstream and leftist journalists.”
