In reply to the discussion: Joy Reid calls out "Bernie bros" and mentions strip clubs [View all]stupidicus
(2,570 posts)146. thanks for conceding you don't know the diff between a fact and an opinion
is it a fact that you're a Bernie supporter or just your opinion? The money tossers made their reasons for the act clear as I understand it, and her dumb or dishonest "opinion" that differs from that doesn't trump that "fact". Your asinine efforts here certainly read far more like the work of a faux BS supporter and that of a stealth HC supporter, so perhaps that's where your dishonesty began.
Secondly, there's no "conceptual" problem, there's just you providing an example of your lack of reading comp skills
and I doubt anyone will
confuse the two, especially when it's expressed as incomprehensively as your last sentence
without noting the hows/whys the sentence was rendered incomprehensible when the point was and remains plain and simple.
And I couldn't care less if the dumb part is due to her being oblivious as to what "symbolism" is or the willful/deliberate distortion of it from the moneychanger/can be bought designation intended to the "calling her whore" dishonest idiocy she spewed it into
She wasn't being dumb by not knowing what symbolism is because she dishonestly contended that it was something other "like buck tucking -- than the money tossers intended and stated.
I chose that nic so as to provide dumb and dishonest rightwingnuts an easy out when they ran outta ammo, but it appears to be universal in use, as is the inability of the users of it to make hay with it, other than demonstrating how a hollow declaration generally originates in a relatively hollow head.
Well done. I would alert on the obvious insulting and willful use of that particular ad hominem, but your HC supporter allies would likely scoff at it. ANd besides all that, coming from a ______ that thinks this
Over the weekend, Bernie Sanders supporters staked out Hillary Clintons George Clooney-hosted fundraiser in San Francisco and threw actual dollar bills at her motorcade as she drove by. They did so to decry the corrupting force of money in politics, but Clintons campaign has actively painted it as a misogynistic attempt to liken her to a whore.
is anything but a dumb or dishonest "opinion" makes your "opinion" about my nic choice not unlike the skunk calling the owl stinky.

Why do Hillary supporters automatically assume Bernie supporters are misogynists?
