You're funny.

I said we should not compromise on these things, you're trying to make a strawman, and badly.

You started with the left vs right debate and are attacking me ad hominem with it.

Your way of discussion is massively out of line and very condescending.

Also, trying to top my point of the overtone (its not important if i spell it correctly, get over yourself) window is childish, while you're accusing me of being exactly that. That was massively ableist too.

You're the exact reason why people with a brain dont like centrists. They're just fashists undercover. The same attack methods, the same disregard for human rights and decency.

Next you say feminists, vegans or climatechange activists are hurting the cause because they're "too loud". Honestly, people in the thousands die every day because people like you say " what can you do?!" Instead of "maybe we stop that"

Anyway. As you can imagine, i dont allow people with less than decent communication style in my feed. So go spill your poison somewhere else.
