          So brave. Tell us, what sort of “good faith” statements did you have in mind on the topic of Team Blue and Team Red’s consensus on genocide, bombing campaigns, scapegoating foreigners, violating students for holding thoughts that go against the interests of the empire (whether via abduction through the ICE, by direct police brutality or through deportation), violating land rights to the Native Americans, continuing slavery, whether via salary theft, student debts, healthcare debts, or via prison slaves (as it is literally enshrined in the constitution)?

            I’ve looked at enough of your posts to see your just a reactionary looking to punch down on everyone who won’t submit to your brow beating. Try buiilding community instead of shitting on literally everyone who thinks differently than you.

            In short you seem like an asshole who like to preach moral superiority with nothing to back it up. Have the day you deserve.

              Yes my posts pack quite the punch for bloodthirsty libs like you hiding behind a “goodwill” veneer who certainly care about building communities (but not for anyone outside of their KKKlub), thank you for noticing.

              Anyways, that’s enough sidetracking, let’s try this once again: tell us, what sort of “good faith” statements did you have in mind on the topic of Team Blue and Team Red?

                ASo many opinions that show you don’t understand or can’t be bothered to learn the nuances. I’m not verbose enoigh to educate you. Bye now.

                  “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

                  Yes yes, we’ve already went over this, my opinions are quite heavy to read. Anyways, there’s no rule that says you should be verbose to be able to explain the sort of “good faith” statements you had in mind on the topic of Team Blue and Team Red (unless that’s a cult-like behavior from Reddit carried on here? Who knows).

                  In fact, if you’re able to explain in simple terms, then there should be no problem explaining, so knock yourself out. What sort of “good faith” statements did you have in mind on the topic of Team Blue and Team Red?

              You were the one coming in saying everyone who thinks different to you is “bad faith”, fuck off with your projection

      Why? They’ve basically adopted most of the MAGA movements ideology, just with the parties switched and a different foreign scapegoat.

        If you honestly believe this, then you aren’t living in reality.

          This is really all you shitlibs have, isn’t it? Just smugly insisting that you’re right.
