Did you really just "so much for the tolerant left" me? Hilarious. Thanks for the laugh, considering where this conversation started. I'll put it to you this way seeing as the concept seems so difficult for you to understand. If you go around condemning gay people to burning for eternity and telling women things like "your body, my choice" then I am not going to respect you because you clearly have no respect for anyone else.
And just to clear things up in case this is the reason that you're taking it so personally, when I say "you", I am not pointing a finger at you, I am using it in a general sense, talking about the people that do these things.
You arrived here telling me that my first comment was actually about right wingers while calling yourself a centrist, but you've already started clutching your pearls just because I don't want to ever meet in the middle with hateful bigots and tried to shame me into changing my position by pulling "iNTolERant LEft" schtick. So I dunno.
I'm asking you if you understand if what you in particular are saying is, by it's nature, a contradiction. You were never tolerant from the start, and never really pretended to be. You just think you have labels that magically confer this value on you without having to do the work.
You don't represent the Left as a whole. But you're picking up a lot of cues with Left-leanimg terminology that create a dogmatic point of view, regardless of the left/right side of things.
Friendo, I'm happy to hear your thoughts on this, as it adds to my understanding of a diverse range of points of view. Tell me more.
Your logic is bullshit, you are a "clever" one. You know that quote about antisemetism and valuing the meaning of words? That's about you. Logical fallacy and dissociation are all you have to offer the conversation. You wouldn't discern good faith if it was hanging from your fucking nuts.
What specifically is bullshit?
What is the logical fallacy?
Without actual details, it's hard to see this as anything more than just a lazy personal attack.
They talk big words and say nothing. It's an argument method where they attempt to look good/smart and goad other people into looking angry. In this particular case, they want you to reply angrily and say "Look how intolerant they are to me, and I was just pointing out how intolerant they really were!"
