Sometimes it's hard to be a grownup.

I still think it's petty.

BTW, when someone says cankles... think it's fun?

I drew a parallel between what you were doing and what the RWNJ are doing.

Don't go all high and mighty.

If you're going to sling demeaning names, be prepared to be compared to other people who do it.

Grow up.

(added) It's not a talking point. Far from it. It is a childish, petty name calling insult. The sort of thing that happens in the 3rd grade.

Insulting our Democratic presumptive nominee not so much. Have you read DU's TOS? If not I suggest you do so.

It puts you at their level.

In no way did I say anything at all about anyone.

I said it is wrong to be childish and do petty name calling.

No matter who does it.
