Another leftist who can think his way out of a paper bag. I'd run away in shame if I were you too. Leftists have absolutely NO ability to defend their ideas. They aren't really ideas. They are cliches and feelings.

Sadly there are facts, ideas, evidence, and argument. These are left wing values. There is rationality and enlightenment. The left has replaced that with censorship and virtue signaling.

I gotta hand it to you James, you know how to push my buttons.

So let me make an assumption. You support a man found liable for sexual assault, who is a convicted criminal because he broke the law to become POTUS 45, who repeatedly says it's okay to grab women he doesn't know by the crotch, who believes the word of an authoritarian autocrat over that of the people in his own administration, who earned hundreds of millions of dollars by breaking the law, and who would have gotten away with it if not for his own actions, who makes it as clear as day that he cares about you and me the way we care about cardboard boxes, who babbles incoherently about what he would do to avoid sharks if he was in a sinking electric boat, who told people to inject disinfectant to cure COVID, who wants to arrest and even execute people who disagree with him (let's not call that censorship), and who is pathologically incapable of admitting he's ever done anything wrong.

And if you want an example of virtue signaling, it's you making me out to be the enemy. I'm not your enemy, James A. I'm trying to help you see what a child should be able to see before they've even heard of politics. You are being conned. Or you are the con. And who cares. The effect is the same.

You are correct in saying that there is rationality and enlightenment, but there's a long road between that and where you are now. I hope you make it there some day.

Note to self: Don't respond to James A's next reply. Allow it to be one small victory in James A's war on the truth.
