    Oh, this might just be a translation issue, see when I said “left wing criticism” I mean, criticism coming from the left wing directed towards things that are to the right.

    You understand that the horizon of all political opinion doesn’t terminate with the democratic party?

    If I was to criticize the republicans it would still be a left wing critique, as they are to my right, just more so than the democrats.

        taking your analogy- what if the stubbed toe is gangrenous? that will kill you way faster than cancer. My point is that going along with genocide like this is actually to blame for this election not being a slam dunk against the most unlikeable person in history

            Diva’s presence here doesn’t strike me as a “bit”. Are you claiming she’s some kind of undercover agent or bot or someone pretending to be someone or something they’re not?

            What’s your point with this “bit” stuff? Do you think Diva is playing some kind of trick or something?

            I think you need a new bit. I get your commitment to this one, and it’s impressive, but this one isn’t working.

            It’s literally just me being myself, thanks for not misgendering me like the other ones I guess

        You’re moving goalposts. That’s not a translation issue. That’s a bad-faith tactic to distract.

        you said:

        Oh it’s not about the left-wing criticism. Criticism is a part of the process. It’s expected, and it’s warranted. What it IS about… is the absolute absence of right-wing criticism.

        Why would I be producing right wing criticism of the republicans? it makes no sense.

        That’s why I said it must be some translation issue like you meant to say there’s no criticism of the right wing. Which is untrue, like for one democrats are right wing, and I criticize them, but I also don’t have much productive to say about Republicans beyond that we should empty our prisons and fill them up with Republicans,

        spoiler

        but only to re-educate them, like force them to break rocks and fill up their pristine truck beds with literally anything for once

        They could be trapped in a 15 minute walkable environment, tortured every day by not being able to get into a drive through to pick up their breakfast wrap and sit in traffic for an hour.
