[dude with glasses in a communist t-shirt, arguing] I'm the only leftist here, your opinions are TRASH
[dude holding a theory book on smug, arguing] Read theory you losers, you're all WRONG
[dude in an anarchist hoodie, arguing] Nuh-uh, I'm the only leftist here, you're SHITLIBS
[the three dudes are now caught in a cartoon fight, glasses gone flying, punches everywhere, while a firing squad of nazis are targeting them with rifles]
[a confused nazi asks] Why… why are they still arguing?
That's not what I'm asking, I'm saying you can't judge now many people are not engaging in purity testing.
That's exactly what confirmation bias is. "All the toupees I see are bad, therefore, all toupees are bad." Confirmation bias with a basis of fact to it, still completely ignoring the toupees you don't notice.
That's a moot point. First of all, I'm not casting judgement, I'm simply pointing out the state of leftist unity. You can't deny that purity testing is a huge element in leftist discourse, and if you are going to anyway then you're simply not being honest. It doesn't matter how self identifying leftists do or don't purity test, the point is that enough do where it's a cornerstone of leftist culture.
That's not what confirmation bias is. Confirmation bias is when you actively seek out information that support your preexisting beliefs. My opinion is not confirmation bias, but a simple observation.
boy you really aren't understanding what I'm saying if you think that's how I was using "judge"
I did misread your comment, and I apologize for that but my point still stands. We're not doing a survey here, we're simply observing the current state of leftist culture and discourse in society. Looking at the the left right, can you say that purity testing is prominent element of it? It's a simple yes or no question, and I think the answer is a yes if we're being honest.
You're a troll
you remove me and let this zionist scumbag be?
Fuck you all
