When you claim something as stupid as I’m getting my butt kicked but I keep getting up, that’s really all the comeback I need. By definition, if you keep getting up, you’re clearly not beaten. Are you that guy who tries to call a TKO when his pick-up basketball team goes up 2-0? 😂

I was here the day after the election acknowledging that Trump won and that the Democratic Party really screwed the pooch on this. I’m also not a Democrat. Funny how you claim you’re soooo above party politics while parroting every GOP talking point out there, then keep trying to project the Democratic Party onto me.

You said here yourself what a capital S Savior Walmart has been for your hometown. Hey, good for your hometown; desperate economic times makes people grateful for the skimpiest of bones. That’s a reality I’ve never known. I was humbled and my eyes were opened when you shared that perspective. But you don’t then get to turn around and act like you’re Mr independent thinker, Mr above-it-all, Mr autonomous. You’re a sheep.

You’re a sheep, and you think losing an election means I have to accept you as a superior or something. This is why 4 years from now, 8 years from now, you’re still going to be an angry little man stomping around demanding people accept your authority and submit their beliefs to yours.

Wow. You feeling ok Datt? This post is a real doozy, even by the low bar you’ve set for yourself.

Are you cool with how healthcare insurance works in this country? Because it’s capitalist. Do you like it as is?

What does that have to do with what I said? The claim (not mine) is that 41% of the youth voters are okay with the CEO being murdered. Or something to that effect. My claim is that the left is a death cult. You respond to that by saying that we were bragging about how many youth voters the orange man got and now we were ready to deport them back to the left. I gave you a pretty solid example of why it would be easy to assume that of the 41% of the alleged youth voters who were okay with murder, were on the left and not part of the ones who voted for literal Hitler. Now, I am sure a small percentage of that 41% may have. And if so, then yes. I would like to see them deported to the left.

I am not happy with how insurance companies take advantage of suffering people, no. But I don't believe in answering evil with evil. I don't support murder. It would be a pretty terrible place if we just let random people decide who gets to live and who deserves to die. We all have our opinions on that, but we don't have a right to act on them. I don't think rapists and child abusers should be allowed to live. But I can't go executing them.

Great! We both agree with AOC then: murder bad, having a capitalist industry taking care of medical coverage ultimately prioritizes financial profits over people’s lives.
I’m afraid we’re going to disagree on who the death cult is, though. I’m thinking between 41% of youth (& just 22% of Dems — who, in your need to oversimplify things so that you can get your pea brain around it, qualify as “the left”) who think the assassination of ONE single CEO is justified and the vast majority of the GOP, conservatives, and “the right” who think we should let the market decide with healthcare and who are cool with people going bankrupt due to medical bills and dying because insurance won’t cover them as long as they profit, the death cult would be the latter.

This is just an awful take. What you're too dense to understand is there's the Dems, Republicans, and now there's MAGA. MAGA is exactly what it stands for. We aren't Republicans, and we've (I know I have) told you that we don't align with Republicans anymore. You're either on MAGA (Trump's) side, or you're against him. It's that simple, and true.

But, you'd have to get your head out of your ass to see it.
