It may be too early to call, but to me it’s looking like democrats are going to be losing for a long long time if leftists are stuck moronically fighting each other over invented strawmen. Honestly the interaction was so bizarre and nonsensical and polarized I have to wonder if the comm is an organized effort to disrupt leftists.

    Wedge issues as a industry, it’s not a bug it’s a feature.

    As long as people fight over inconsequential things, they won’t have the attention, time, or energy to fight over money, healthcare, and wars.

    Haven’t had your particular interaction. But i too have experienced that the “no true scotsmen” puritans seem to have coopted the left leaning persona.

    I understand people not liking them.

      Seriously, conservatives only need like one thing in common with someone to call them their best friend and be willing to lay their lives in the line for them. Leftists will hate you if you don’t have every single possible opinion and thought in line with theirs. We wonder why we’re losing…
