Im not trying to argue Im genuinely confused, your definition seems the same as mine?

The definition you posted in post 391 is the philosophical sense of "absolute", like absolute morals vs moral relativity. My take is that that isn't applicable to a statement like "they're both absolute liars" which is just using it in the more casual sense.

If we use wiktionary ( https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/absolute ) which I feel does a better job distinguishing between the two, it's like definition 5 (one of several regular ass uses for the word) vs. 7 (narrow philosophical use)

I don't know if I'm explaining this effectively. I don't really think you're wrong about Biden, in any case. Maybe singling him out semi-unfairly but not wrong.
