Reply to comment by Mijbr090490 in Republican Doug Mastriano told supporters he didn't get any money from Ohio derailment train operator Norfolk Southern. Records show he took $1,000. by Pennzingers

I love how when someone says "both sides suck" both sides think theyre specifically only talking about their side. Gotta be some special kind of self centered for that

Nine out of ten it's a conservative defending something shitty a Republican did because they feel compelled to defend everyone that also votes for R's.

Thank you for proving my point by doing exactly what i mentioned lol

This is a post about a Republican so it proves my point. Not being able to take criticism of anyone in your party is a trait of conservatives. They still get angry when Trump is critical.

Wait..watch this...its also a trait of democrats ;)

Doubling down isn't going to make you somehow correct you know

You know that's not true though. If Andrew Cuomo and Anthony Weiner were Republicans, they'd still be in office.

I don't think you've ever met a Democrat in real life if you think we're tribal like Republicans are, who are still stuck on trying to prove the 2020 election was stolen.

Funnily enough, you are assuming im a republican because i agree that both sides have shitty politicians. Would you like to prove my original statement right again with your next comment?

And you also just said "not being able to take criticism is a Republican trait" yet here you are, unable to take criticism

Guess which side never says "it's all politicians"?

"not being able to take criticism is a Republican trait" thanks for helping me show that that's incorrect

DoctorSteve t1_j9mjdpn wrote

You know you didn't quote that correctly, right?

Democrats never say "it's all politicians". Because this line is only used by Republicans to deflect criticism of their candidates. It's justification for voting for a candidate you KNOW is awful. You know your candidates suck. But you still vote for them.

Yeah "in your party" are the only words i forgot to include and it doesnt change the meaning at all here, but good attempt.

And it's not only used by republicans lol. What a generalized, bald faced lie that is lol. Source: i have ears and eyes

It changes the sentence drastically. That's why it was included. That's why you left it off. You lied about the quote.

Lol no, it doesn't. You know exactly what i meant just as anyone else who speaks english did. I left it off because i use Reddit on my phone and dont have previous comments looking me in the face while i reply.

You had no argument that could refute anything i said, so you latched onto that as your only chance to grasp at a straw. Now it's your only argument, and is also nonsense.

So, if you have no point to make, and refuse to listen to any point that opposes your own thoughts...then i dont see much point in continuing the baseless "im right and you're wrong" conversation

DoctorSteve t1_j9myzjb wrote

Lol, refute what you said? You've said nothing. You aren't making some giant debate. You're going "all politicians are bad" on a post about a bad Republican politician. Everyone knows what you're doing. And just like your idols, you're lying right here.

Thank you for assuming im a republican and proving my initial statement true. Im not a republican, im just also not a hypocrite.

Enjoy convincing yourself you were right for the next 10 minutes before moving onto another reddit post to argue on. Have a good day and remove the crust from your eyelids so you can open them

Nothing is more Republican than refusing to state you're Republican. Do you know how many ads I've seen where Republican candidates won't define themselves as such? Or their political signs, which are often blue.

But Democrats? They don't have this problem.

But sure, you're "not a Republican". Doesn't change anything.

Lol okay buddy, if youre going to say "nuh uh ur a liar" to everyone who disagrees with you, why bother arguing about anything hahahaha. Go have a cup of tea and get over yourself. Christ.

(By the way, by your own logic...you're a republican ;)

I haven't lied once.

guyandadog t1_j9n2m6l wrote

Says who? You? Republicans are liars, and by your own criteria, you are a Republican since you said you aren't a Republican. So i don't believe you when you say you haven't lied. Since you're a Republican, and Republicans lie.

See how silly your own words sound?

I'm a Progressive. I have no issues stating my political position.

Guess which one of us dances around the subject?

guyandadog t1_j9n4juk wrote

You never asked actually, i agree more with libertarians on financial matters and democrats on social matters.

go ahead, state the point where i 'danced around it'. Ill wait ill be up another few hours

DoctorSteve t1_j9n4wmy wrote

OH WHAT A SURPRISE

"I'm not a Republican, I'm a Libertarian"

I'm not actually surprised I knew this was the answer. I didn't want to put you on blast because then you wouldn't have stated it.

You cannot "agree with Democrats on Social Matters" if you agree with Libertarians on Financial Matters. If you understood politics, you'd understand why.

guyandadog t1_j9n58rr wrote

A. You're going to incorrectly assume something, then pretend you knew the answer while also saying you don't believe the answer? "I just lied about what i thought you'd say so you'd say what i REALLY thought you'd say" -you Man, if someone got lost in your head they'd never find their way out of that corn maze

B. Are you going to point out where i "danced around it"? Or are you just going to...dance around that fact?

(You can see i separated my two statements so that you cant "accidentally" not respond to the part you don't like)

DoctorSteve t1_j9n5n77 wrote

I've spoken to many Republicans who go "I'm not a Republican I'm a Libertarian". You're a walking cliche.

EDIT: Wow, someone blocks you if you don't reply in enough time. That's a Republican if I ever saw one.

guyandadog t1_j9n5rud wrote

Wow. I made it so easy for you to respond to both of the things i said, and you still couldn't respond to either one.

Ill give you another chance. They're marked A and B. Go ahead, respond

edit: guess you arent going to after all, goodnight fella. You should do things in your free time that make you happy instead of angry
