    “I don’t like what you’re saying, so you must be younger than me and therefore wrong” is the most boomer take ever.

      It’s not just that people don’t like what you have to say. It’s that you don’t actually respond to what’s being said. Or have anything to actually offer to a discussion. And calling anyone older than you a boomer is such a juvenile thing to do. So you are at least proving my point I suppose.

      Dude… why are you always rewriting everything anyone says to you? Is it because you know it’s obnoxious? Is it that you are trying to agitate people into losing their resolve and saying something you can report them for?

      Because nowhere did they say anything they made you the victim you’re trying to be here.

      They simply said that your points of view are incredibly naïve. Which would be the result of being young and inexperienced with politics and its nuance. Having said that… They could have just said that you are an ignorant brainwashed troll, but they didn’t. Because they probably believe this isn’t the case.

        It’s called paraphrasing. I tend to do it when I’m on mobile. It quickly becomes an awkward pain in the ass to go line by line and quote the condescension and abuse that centrists use because their ideas are indefensible.

          No, it’s not paraphrasing. It’s purposeful misunderstanding so you can either victimize yourself, or build a straw man.

          You’re not as clever as you think.

            You’ve made it clear that you will believe the worst about me no matter what I say. There is no reason to change my tone to suit you.
