    You’re ignorant and you don’t know what words mean, including fallacy.

    Which is, in fact, an identifying feature of a liberal.

      Oh? Did you need me to walk you through it, buddy?

      1. Where did I say anything about liberals? (Herein lies the strawman)

      2. I just had a far-leftist espouse arming up because Karl Marx said so; so whether they’re Liberal or Leftist, the point remains.

      3. Liberalism In the United States has traditionally either been short-hand for social liberalism, or the polar-opposite to conservatism. As Howard Zinn points out in The Case for Socialism, Left and Liberalism were used interchangeably throughout American history and distanced itself from that of right-wing conservatism.

      4. Do you speak on behalf of all liberals and leftists? <— Herein lies the gatekeeping / No True Scot fallacy.

      Classic over-confidence of a sub-22-year-old tankie.
