    Sorry, but I’m not going to take the word of someone who once said, “I love Donald Trump because he reminds me of Hitler, who did nothing wrong.” Now, I definitely saw you say that once, but I’m not going to comb through a bunch of petty nonsense to find the link to it.

    Besides, you already stated that if someone looks like a lib you’re gonna call it a lib “even if they deny the label”, and that’s what I mean about these personal attacks.

    Again, I already explained the distinction. I never said that “tankies” won’t write off the opinions of people they don’t respect (everyone does this, as I explained with the example of an obvious fascist), what I’ve said is that we don’t deny that you believe the things you say you do, that you secretly believe something else, the thing that you just explicitly claimed to have seen but can’t provide a single example of.

      So your answer to me replying in good faith is to double down and reply in bad faith to drive a petty point because I refuse to do some fool’s errand for you? Yeah, that’s not gonna fly.

      I already explained the distinction

      You can have your distinction but I’m not making one. I’m not operating under that framework you setup. I’m saying something one thing and you’re trying to shoehorn in the conversation into some other thing.

      can’t provide a single example of

      And, as I’ve already explained, I won’t.

      We’ve run our course. Good day.

        For anyone following along, the original claim was, “I don’t understand the constant liberal need to assume everyone who disagrees with you is acting in bad faith,” and they responded “I see the same behavior with tankies,” then went on to talk about a completely different behavior and are now trying to pretend that that other behavior was the thing being discussed and not a completely irrelevant tangent they brought up to draw a false comparison.

          I made it perfectly clear what kind of dismissive attacks I meant and even gave examples of I was talking about which you admitted to perpetrating, but you’re here splitting hairs and making petty demands so that you come out clean as if I care. And now you’re rewriting a thread from your POV in an attempt to win over people by insulting their intelligence while you’re thirsting for some insignificant victory in an inconsequential thread. Amusingly weird behavior, if you ask me. lol

            Again, general “dismissiveness” is not what the conversation was ever about. Everyone dismisses certain viewpoints, I never disputed that.

              And that’s not quite my point either, but ok. You’ve either not taken a moment to understand what I mean or you’re willingly misinterpreting it going after the low hanging fruit. Whichever it is, please stop trying to rewrite the thread. It’s quite disingenuous. Thanks.
