    Literally not the slightest bit what they said

    "We gonna strawman anyone who makes a fair point to preserve our egos" also not a strong look when you're trying to recruit people older than 11

      If anything reacting so negatively to the somewhat out of line “he should get shot” thing [...] is what makes the american left seem less good to me.

      It's literally exactly what they said.

      And whether or not you think their rationalization for murdering literally every leftist anyone in the country has ever heard of is a fair point, it's not a strawman.

      If you would like to know what a strawman is, and you're committed to this kind of debatebro rhetoric, perhaps you'd like to fully read the comment you're defending. In their last paragraph they use quotation marks. Who is being quoted? Who made that argument? No one did.

        You: this is "exactly what they said"

        Quote: literally edited to remove context, changing the meaning of the sentence

        yeah ok, that's definitely exactly what they said, there was no point about people routinely saying similar things about other senators who aren't lib grampa and it never being an issue, I must have dreamt that

        and debatebro? someone taking issue with your strawmen doesn't make them a debatebro lol, but you definitely look like one when you change quotes to make disingenuous arguments

        :downbear: yourself

          Have you really never read a thing that quotes another thing before? Do you not understand what the "[...]" symbol is used for? I didn't change the quote, Shapiro. I omitted that portion because it had no relevance to my point. It was the "why" of "I think we should murder everyone with the stature to drive people to our politics". To affirm my point, I was only concerned with the fact they want to murder people of that ilk. And not only that, they're upset that more people aren't similarly bloodthirsty. That is, in fact, exactly what they said.

          So what part of that is a 'strawman'? I get to call you a debatebro. "Context!" "You didn't play the entire video!" is Tim Pool fan shit. Calling everything "strawman" in a reflexive way like you just did is debatebro shit.

          "BUT YOU DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING WHEN WE SHITPOST ABOUT PUTTING OUR POLITICAL ENEMIES AGAINST THE WALL"

          Wow, almost like the very first thing I said was how this was a bad look for talking about LITERALLY THE MOST BENEFICIAL PUBLIC FIGURE FOR OUR POLITICS SINCE DEBS. Mister "gets angry at disingenuous arguments"

              You're not responding in good faith because you decided it wouldn't suit your argument. Time to log off.
