^^^^this bearing of false witness has gone way too far, it is in NO WAY a personal attack to critique one's OPINIONS, it is only a critique of an OPINION and not anything else. the righties have the sheer gall to call everybody else "snowflakes" when in fact their behavior here is mighty snowflakey IMHO.

Except I don’t want not have done the things he says, therefore it’s Slander and a personal attack.
I guess you also think I’m spending my weekends poluting the environment with my evil Corp friends and on the weekdays I’m out trying to ban religions.
Free to decide who I vote for as it’s my right.
It’s be like me saying your out there pushing to ban al guns and end private business, that’s be a personal attack too. I’ve never expressed desire to polute water or air or ban religions. So he can’t critique a opinion I’ve never eppressed or shared. What he’s doing is standing and insulting me for not voting democrat. How you think that’s ok is beyond me. You use to be nice to me.

It's a form of catastrophizing and generalizing the "other" side.

I really don't understand this post.
Trump was the one who expressed willingness to nuke Europe. Clinton did nothing of the sort.
In what sense would Clinton have been publicly humiliated if she'd won? And what makes you think she'd be more dangerous with the nuclear button than Trump? And why on earth do you think this would "end feminism"?
That would fit alongside why they think Pizza Gate is also real.
those where the Qanon Comrade Cult which basically a former friend fell into believing all that BS, got to the point where he would basically try to scream you down if you posted anything negative about trump and came to a head when he decided to be a halfwit dips**t trying to make an argument on a convention staff friends post about trump but ending mostr of his argument points with trolly BS ending in Hur Der and s**t like LOOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO constantly and when finally backed into a corner threatened to kill his current GF and son if all the Qanon s**t was fake and nothing came of it. Mind you this is right about the time the whole Qanon Cult started to unravel under the weight of its own doctored lies and a mutual friend with the staffer saved a whole PDF of the thread but couldnt catch the threat and a few other heinous s**t post the dude made because he decided to delete those but judging from the comments surrounding it you could easily get what was said!
He had the police and CPS called on him but apparently he high tailed it for awhile and not sure if anything came of it.

In modern English the pronoun "you" is often used in place of the old pronoun "one" (as in, a/any person). It was obvious from the context of the discussion it was being used in this way in the statement you thought was directed at you personally. There was no attack there, they were saying "you do this" as in "one does this". It's just that no one uses the impersonal "one" pronoun anymore because it's outdated and considered too formal in English, though if you ask me we should still use it because it avoids these types of misunderstandings.

I understand exactly what you mean. If someone doesn't mean 'you' they shouldn't use the word 'you', else every personal attack can be questioned..."O, I didn't mean you, I meant the other you"??
