    Not what they were comparing. Saying the relationship between x and y is like the relationship between m and n, doesn’t mean that were comparing x to m.

    Reading comprehension is important. I will allow that the comparison was made to shock, but that doesn’t mean you can miscategorize what they said

      You’re not ‘allowing’ me anything. Obama is listed as one of the better presidents the US has had. Comparing him in any way to a tinpot dictator is fucking laughable.
