You know given the choice I'd most likely begrudgingly vote democrat over republican, and I most certainly don't agree with shapiro on just about anything. I called this place a circle jerk because it is, and you've made the assumption that I'm one of "you clowns" which I assume means anyone on the right.

Ah, yes. Those weird Democrats who only repeat Republican talking points that would totally vote Democrat if not for some excuse. So… what was that line about the facts again?

I'm not claiming to be a democrat, I don't even live in the US. I love how your entire dialogue has been based on "unga bunga democrat good republican bad, bad man must be republican." You're a real free thinker aren't you?

My thought process is that anybody who calls the subreddits that aren't conservative walled gardens "left wing echo chambers" is telling on themselves.

I don't mind echo chambers existing, both sides are guilty of that. And I'm a centrist mostly, I just find it tiresome going into the comments of the dominant news subreddit and being bombarded by a tide of left wing narratives. I said nothing about "liberals" though, you're projecting that assumption on me just like you assumed I'm a republican.

This LARP doesn't actually work outside of Political Compass Memes. Nobody falls for it. When you're not wearing the caricature over your head the alt-right shit is just alt-right.

Oh god lads, it’s even worse, he’s an “enlightened centrist.” Fucking hell, you’d be better off being a republican or a fucking pedophile, at least then you’d stand for something instead of being the human equivalent of wet cardboard leaned against a corner and folding in on yourself in your sad sack attempt at straddling some imaginary bullshit line between being a decent human being and a depraved fuckknuckle.

Edit: thank you for the kind words! I do try to make my opinions clear when irked.

Also, our backwards friend apparently left me another nasty gram before deleting their account entirely in their “fair and balanced” cowardice. Good riddance.

You, my good fellow person, need to be an author if you’re not one already. I would read your works.
