It's not a bad faith question. You yourself said that the democratic party is like a restaurant that only serves sand. Why is it that the only thing that it's unreasonable to do in the fight against fascism is demand that the democrats run candidates worth voting for? It's a fair question. I don't eat babies. It's not remotely comparable - we both agree that the democratic party is serving sand. There's no dispute on the facts. I did not say that people like him never existed in history. My point was that he has not been on the ballot for a century. I was clearly talking about the contemporary democratic party - not ancient history.
Lol this guy wants to argue and get themselves worked up. I find it funny.
Do you think they got banned off of reddit?
oh - so funny to be confronted with facts? Laugh it up so you don't have to confront that you are wrong? How amusing.
Guess your looking for a fight too 🤣
Might want to glance at usernames before you swing.
lol - I have no idea what you are talking about.
Im shocked lol, but I'm taking about the other person you were talking to.
As sun tzu said "seem victory then go to war"
So - I'm not sure - but you seem to be saying that no one should dare to disagree with some particular person? Is that what you're trying to say? FYI- having a discussion is not 'going to war'. lol
I give you the answer but you keep guessing.
I have literally no idea what you are talking about. I suspect you don't either.
I actually do know what I'm talking about, but your level of confusion is hilarious.
I could tell you the sky is blue and you'd trip out.
You're just stringing together random words in the hope of trolling people?
Nah you're just bad at communication or you want to be offended.
If you had something to say you would say it - you're just a troll I've now blocked. Goodbye.
Yeah that's why I'm saying what I said.
For the hundredth time, I never said that.
You are the one who injected "abstaining from voting is a good choice" into the discussion. That is a dumb take, as I described above.
When I suffer some form of traumatic brain injury and subsequently say "Demanding Democrats run better candidates is bad," feel free to make the above points.
Doing so in this particular discussion is a waste of both of our time.
Lmfao. I guess someone "hacked" your account when you said "Your dream of a day when the democrats start serving real food will never come - let’s be real - if they wanted to do that they would have done it already."
Again, whether you take me for an idiot, you are an idiot, or you are trying to do a Russia/China/MAGA propaganda:
Goodbye.
Once again you dodge the issue. Why is it my fault for not voting for terrible candidates, rather than the party's fault for refusing to run quality candidates? Why do you pretend that the question of why the party doesn't already run real candidates is a silly one? It is actually the central issue here. The democrats won't run quality candidates while they can be elected running genocidal corporate friendly ghouls. That's just a fact.
