Liberals not descend into lazy insults and strawmen challenge (impossible).
Good to know the definition of tankie has continued to expand that it now includes "people to the left of George Bush"
LOL again: I don't trust any "challenge" offered to me by some godless pinko commie.
And no, "tankie" doesn't mean "anyone to the left of Bush". It means commies who think violence is a solution. That's why they call them "tankies" - Because they're the folks who think bringing in tanks and infantry to "bring about the revolution" is a good idea. Disgusting people, really.
Well you called me a tankie for saying the pre-trump GOP wasn't meaningfully different from the current one, but "a tankie is any communist who isn't an obligate pacifist" is also a pretty stupid definition.
Well, you're defending tankies elsewhere in this thread, so there's that.
Let me put it this way: Pretty much the only thing we have in common is the fact that we both think Trump is a fucking wannabe fascist dictator. I reject your entire ideology. Sorry, but communism just doesn't work.
That's a very ironic thing to say, coming from a Libertarian.
Nope. A fucking dictatorship is the least libertarian thing ever and I am morally obligated to oppose such a system of government.
Sounds like you missed the ironic part (hint: it's the part where a libertarian thinks they're in any position to accuse other ideologies of not working.)
Just keep your grubby commie hands off my money and my property, since your entire ideology revolves around stealing from others.
Seems like you're still struggling with that "not lazy strawmanning" thing
