where I live, if you criticize the CCP you are labelled a racist
thank god I don't live in China
People are stupid. "Criticize Mexico and racist!" "Criticize Islam and racist!" "Criticize CCP and racist!"
Mexico is a nation of 126 million people with all races represented.
Islam is a religion with multiple "sects" that includes over a billion worshippers, with again, all races represented.
CCP is a political party that leads (dictates to?) a nation. Race doesn't even matter, they bear the same scrutiny as any political leadership.
Also, tik tok is stupid, snapchat hasn't been used outside of pornhub hookups for years, and in general, these "trendy" apps are cancer.

Meh, the bolded part is not really true. Objectively, Garland deserved a vote on the Senate floor, but McConnell didnt allow it out of political calculus (would have put a really toxic vote on the record of lots of vulnerable Republican senators).
Refusing to vote indicates where the vote would go. But even saying, "Not gonna vote" is making the choice. Choice is "not acceptable". Had Garland been nominated by Trump, would have have gotten in? I'm willing to bet it could have been voted no.
BTW, just for entertainment sakes, here's something from BB for you:
