(135,425 posts)is you. Do you seriously think people can't read the stuff you've written here? There's no cloak of invisibility over your poorly chosen words! In order to participate here, EVERYONE has to be able to read--and they can read what you've written, and marvel at your ... moxie!
The point that whooshed right over your angry, fussy head is that people EVOLVE in their thinking. No one is "comparing" stances--the point that you were just so unable to grasp, so busy you were engaging in "piece of work, etc." name - calling, is that smart people--like Hillary and Bernie--GROW.
Obtuse people don't seem to manage to process that "complex" (cough) concept--they double down, and call scenes of multiple rape "satire." They then try to compare apples and oranges, act like it matters to drag up bullshit stances that candidateS no longer hold, and get upset when no one takes their poorly articulated--and at the end of the day, MEANINGLESS-- point.
You can't walk this back, you've completely shot any hope of having "authority" in this conversation--you put quite a bit of effort into disparaging me, insisting that piece of utter crap Sanders has DISAVOWED is "satire," and when that doesn't go well, NOW you want to try to talk policy?
You've spent all your credibility. You have none. And it's all YOUR OWN FAULT.
Poor Bernie. He's a good man, with a few lousy supporters who do him no good. It's not a "perfectionist ideal" to take your cues from the guy you purport--and I am going to repeat that, PURPORT--to support. In fact, it's what NORMAL supporters do. Yet you proudly tell me you have a problem with that, that it's some kind of "perfectionist ideal, " an unreasonable demand. Hmmmm! Time reveals all!
Anyone who calls scribblings that deal with multiple rape "satire" in this day and age--after the author of the garbage has repeatedly expressed contrition, disowned it, called it stupid, regretted it, etc.--is quite PLAINLY not taking the point at all, has a real problem with tone deafness, is doing a pisspoor job of supporting his candidate, and is in no position to speak with any authority. Why? Because calling that essay anything but "stupid"--which is what Sanders called it--is neither liberal nor "progressive."
Now you toddle along and have a nice day.
SMH!
