Ad hominem insults, tone policing, irrational knee-jerking that has zero relation to the actual content of what a Democrat said or did. That's 99% of the "criticism" I see. Rarely see people making actual serious, well-thought-out statements of things substantially wrong with what was said or done.
It makes me think that Trump Derangement Syndrome was an "every Republican accusation is a confession". Because a whole lot of reactions to Democrats comes off as more like a Two Minutes Hate session than actual fact-based logical criticism, while criticism of Trump typically has more substance.
Big yikes.
I agree, the pathological hatred of Democrats *is* a big yikes. Did you have an actual real counterargument to make, or?
Like I'm not stupid, I know you're being sarcastic. So you're free to tell me say how a massive sea of "just resign" or "god I hate this man" replies every time Schumer or Jeffries say anything, no matter how actually objectively reasonable what they said, is completely reasonable and rational.
I don’t understand the comment I was replying to. What are you saying about TDS being projection/confession? It’s impossible to parse. It’s not for me to defend how any other person on the internet reacts to Schumer or Jeffries. If you see any comments I’ve made & have questions, feel free to ask.
I think TDS was a projection and people actually essentially have Democrat Derangement Syndrome. Not even that controversial a take, IMHO, since things like Murc's Law and the "Fuck Democrats" flowchart meme are essentially people calling out various manifestations of the derangement.
And I feel the reaction to people like Schumer and Jeffries, or numerous double standard attacks on Biden, also lend credence to this. There's certainly nothing reasonable about the reactions I noted. It genuinely reads like Two Minute Hate, not constructive concerns about what they actually said.
Projection would be if the Republicans accusing Dems of having TDS actually had BDS, which they do - but it wouldn’t imply anything about Dems… Unless you’re saying Dems accused Republicans of having TDS, but instead the Dems are the ones with DDS?? Very confusing.
No it's actually really easy and simple to understand. You're just faking that you don't. So ask yourself why you're unable to successfully defend your own points without having to resort to tactics like this.
Sounds like you need to follow some more intelligent accounts. Also - should probably stop ascribing the behavior of those you see to every other person on the internet who disagrees with how some Democrats are prosecuting the case against the Trump regime.
Link me to these allegedly more intelligent accounts and I'll consider it. OK, I'll stop doing what I'm already not doing. Wow that was easy. Questioning why you're following me if you apparently view me as deserving of nothing but bad faith dishonest potshots.
I followed you because I checked out your page and it looks like we probably agree on over 90% of the issues. The broader debate about when and how it’s acceptable (if at all) for leftists/progressives/liberals to criticize Dems has caused more division than the criticism itself. It’s crazy.
