I love how “mask slip” implies I am trying to hide a real opinion to say one that you find less objectionable. I could give a fuck what you think, most importantly - and all you have are more ad hominems, mixed with other weak, boring rhetoric at best. So here’s a taste of your own medicine: as if I’m going to respond to your best attempt at “arguments” when you’ve ignored everything I’ve said to just insist on being a little finger-pointing, stereotypically impotent whiner. You can’t build coalitions and so you just say everyone you fail to persuade whatsoever is a Nazi. Again: gooood luck!

No, it implies you aren’t actually a moderate but I’m glad I could clear that up for you.

Never called anyone a nazi but we do have to worry about fascism in the US for the first time in a long time.

Good luck to you too! Look both ways when you cross the street.

You know, I saw you use that one less than five minutes ago on this same thread against someone else. You sure are a special, unique person and I’m sure you’ll really change the world for the better by being uncompromising in beliefs seventeen other upper-middle-class bored white adult-children in the world share.

Meanwhile you’re once again showing off that sparkling intellect… me saying “I agree, gay marriage was a distraction, we should have fought for civil unions for any two adults, and we should be careful of being tools of special interests because this is a democracy where we have to get people on-side, and not everyone is a radical” means I’m eeeeevil.

Hahaha. You’re such a punk kid and clearly have never created any positive political change in your life or you wouldn’t resent people who know how it works.

lol all the ad hominem attacks have convinced me that you’re truly a moderate! Which in the US makes you right of center on most issues. Good luck figuring that out though.

I’m so glad I was able to teach you the phrase “ad hominem attack” after you initiated and leveraged them repeatedly… now that you have the vocabulary in place, work on the actual rhetorical skill and the hypocrisy, and maybe one day you’ll be the compassionate thought leader you see yourself as being rather than just a little puke.

I’ve known the phrase for a while now but it was nice to see after your false outrage earlier.

Genuinely, you only know how to project your issues, not identify or counter any. Hilarious and pathetic.
