Since the late 1990s, drug companies have spent tens of billions of dollars on television ads, drumming up demand for their products with cheerful jingles and scenes of dancing patients.
But you are very wrong, I’m plenty old enough to know wtf a analogue clock is.
I’m don’t like the comment because it’s shallow and reinforces the dichotomy of Dem vs Gop
The notion that people are only wrong even if they are right.
The idea that a bad person can’t change. Even if they do an empathetic action and care about someone they are still and will only ever be wrong.
It’s internet shallow, it’s a meme catch phrase for the lazy.
The notion that people are only wrong even if they are right.
That’s literally the opposite of what it means though. The point of the phrase is that even people who are full of bad ideas occasionally come up with a good one.

That requires them to actually change their ways, rather than having a good point mixed in with poisonous ones.
I personally don’t care about the broken clock thing, but a phrase that does annoy me is “if it ain’t broke…” So I can emphasise with the idea that a popular simple proverb often oversimplifies and misrepresents and distorts what people are actually trying to discuss.
That’s the problem with the use of a thought-terminating cliche in a discussion. It’s not directly relevant, it’s not an original idea, and it’s a sign that you’d rather make a time-wasting comment than engage. You’re cutting and pasting, not thinking.
Thanks for assuming you have any idea about me.

So yeah, RFK is a broken clock.
Fair enough.

Went into reading this comment thinking you were just being a douche. Nope see your point.
