The passive aggressive "explains much" angle you have now repeated twice is kind of weird.
There's a weird cult around hating this one guy specifically, and people just cannot help but tell on themselves whenever he's mentioned. It's pathetic.
So weird that people hate on a wannabe tankie loser.
I guarantee that he does far more to push for progressive causes in a single year than you'll do in your entire lifetime.
That's it, keep simping for champagne socialist losers.
I'm not even a fan of the guy, I'm just not a fucking idiot
Wow you got me.
Hate the guy all you like. I'm not a fan either. But that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about the political point he made. You turned it into a debate about his character, and with the weird "explains much" shit, into a debate about my character. You could have said "that guy's a douche" and I'd have responded with "yup but the douche is making a good point". Instead you chose toxicity and vitriol. Maybe chill a bit.
What is this "good point" even supposed to be? That he'd hand the election to Vance? Wow, so brave.
See that's the problem. You've poisoned the space between us, I have no patience to engage with you further and have this discussion on the actual merits of the fucking political point which I would have liked to have in the first place. Do better by our community next time.
Poisoned it by directly asking what you think the "good point" is?
Clearly there was no substance there to begin with, if that's the case.
Do BeTtEr
Poisoned by repeatedly using the "explains a lot" passive aggression, since your very first response to me.
We're done.
Oh no, somebody called you out for cheering on a tankie loser and challenged you on what makes it a "good point".
So toxic, so poisoned.
Give me a break. Just leave if you're gonna leave.
You did a bad job of challenging or conversing. You have been singular sided the whole time.
You are toxic, at least specifically to this entire thread so far. And I am plenty happy to add to that so you maybe hear it.
