    I think they might literally just use the wrongs they do as a reference list of things to claim theyre gonna fight

    Like I dunno if this even seems like just projecting, it feels a little too conspicuously timed 😅 theres gotta be a list somewhere that just says “all the fucked shit we’ve done that we can accuse people of to look like good guys:”

      That’s why “every accusation is a confession” holds true again and again… and again.
