    I usually think of sealioning as also requiring some element of butting in with your pet issue when it’s not apart of the discussion.

      Biden’s gas prices are so high. Worst president ever.

      gas prices go down

      mention that Biden should be congratulated for lowering prices if he was the cause for them going up

      Yeah well… he’s still the worst for all these other reasons!
