I say genocide is bad, and you call me alt-right for saying it. Thank you for the absolutely perfect illustration of exactly what I was talking about.

I didn't call you alt-right. I was highlighting that you responded to a fair counterpoint (that I obviously agree about running better candidates in addition to pressuring the existing ones to be better) by just totally ignoring it and pivoting to another accusation unrelated to what we had been talking about.

Similar to this flow of conversation. See if it rings true:

Yeah, that totally wasn't your intent.

Another pivot, not addressing the substance of what I said! Fun stuff lol

I have no idea whether you are alt-right, I don't think it is particularly likely. All I am doing is calling out the type of bad faith argument you're employing.
