Excuse you. That doesn't make any sense. You don't get to tell me that what is happening over here doesn't fit her description. You can't tell me original poster's incredibly concise axiom isn't something you could apply to the left and the right in Europe or the US or Canada or anywhere
New Zealand is not "anywhere". It is a specific country she's talking about
Wow Yeah I already talked about New Zealand politics somewhere else. See how you're just digging for more ammunition cuz you're just out to be offensive and dismissive?
?? I'm really not
You don't see it. You're being Petty.
I just want to talk about my country qua my country, not someone else's
That doesn't give you the right to muscle me out of this thread. I don't have to apologize. You said this isn't the US, like I'm supposed to just say oh my bad? I can't speak my truth to the other people in this thread? No one else would have found any value in it? Why do you make that decision?
I think you misread the power differential here. If NZers didn't insist on this we would never talk about our own politics at all because we would be swamped by you lot
Yeah I'm triggered. I'm deep in my heart right now. You were so dismissive reflexively just because what I'm talking to you from another land? Rude. You could have said what you meant to say in a million different ways.
We have plenty of places to talk about Nancy Pelosi (like, the rest of Bluesky). You could have said "oh my bad" and responded in a million different ways yourself. But you didn't and here we are
Yes here we both are.
No, it's not my bad. I was completely correct. Op is a genius because what she said is so universally applicable to people anywhere who have a political spectrum that can be broken down into a left right dynamic.
So Stephanie quite literally telling people to stop talking about the USA in response to her thread means nothing to you huh
She can block me then. And so could you have.
I foolishly thought you might get it eventually
Get what? I'm right. Her analysis makes sense no matter whose country you apply it to. That's an important thing for anyone to realize. Especially people who don't think of the world in terms of left versus right. There are so many people who might read this who aren't in the US or NZ.
Sigh
