Left wingers: if you have a different opinion to me you're wrong.


Blind faith in one's beliefs is a human trait, not a partisan one.

You're wrong and you should change what you think so that it's the same as what I think.

Unless just out of "ideology" you pissed away a vote for Bernie or someone else who didnt have a snowball's chance I'm guessing your voted for Hillary, a person whom I could also say is blatantly horrible.

Humans. You can't live with them, or exercise any option that involves not living with them, so I guess you have to live with them.

Your expectations are wrong, you should change them so they're the same as mine.


Damn, just can't stop myself. Ah well, I'm only human.

Your concept of time is wrong, you should change the quantum fabric around you to match mine.

Your post was tantamount to "someone somewhere said this at some point" - it was weak and meaningless. It might even be untrue for all I know. How about you find me all the threads on here where people are called Marxist traitors by "right wingers" (I put that in quotes as I don't think you have it in you to identify where people's politics lie; you obviously think I'm right wing despite me not making any political statements and no reference to what my personal politics are...criticising left wing idiots doesn't mean I am right wing, it simply means I don't like idiots) and I can evaluate for myself if there is any truth in your post at all?


I guess you never read comment sections or discuss politics outside of here if you've never encountered what I'm describing. Or you're choosing to ignore it. :roll:

I have no interest in politics, especially American ones, and I have no interest in discussing them here or anywhere else (I assume screaming abuse at people who don't agree with you is what you refer to as discussion).

Back to the matter at hand, I assume the fact that you aren't able to show me the threads on here where people are supposedly called Marxist traitors means they don't exist and you just made that up.

Trump is pathologically devoid of empathy. It's just blatant. Hillary isn't even on the same level.

You're entitled to believe whatever you like, no matter how untrue. :wink:

Thing is, I also did a google search of this site and that didn't give me any results either, so yeah it does look like you just made that up.

I explicitly said it's something I've encountered else where, but expecting honesty from you is setting one's self up for disappointment.

So when you implied that it was untrue that there were no such threads here...

....that was a lie? You now admit that there are no such threads here despite implying there were above? And you say I am dishonest? What's with you left wingers where you always accuse other people of things you are found to be guilty of yourselves? It's quite an unattractive trait.

I'm not denying you said that originally, I quoted the bit I was taking issue with which is where you implied that there were threads like that on here.
