    I love that people are protesting, but why isn’t it perfect and exactly how I want them to do it?

    If you went to one of them, you’d see that they’re not just focusing on him.

    People out here complaining about these protests like it’s literally their job. Suspect.

      Burning Man called. They want their gigantic strawman back.

          No, I was pointing out ineffective messaging and made the specific reasons clear.

          Which you dumbed down to your own level of rhetorical competence and insight, I guess 🤷

            Well that was unnecessarily hostile. Just more evidence that you’re arguing in good faith…

              No, that was justifiably peeved since you’re still insisting on misrepresenting my clearly stated point.

              If I was arguing in bad faith, I’d do something silly like reduce your argument to the most childishly simplified and egocentric possible interpretation and then insist on the accuracy of that after having the crux of the argument repeated just as clearly but more succinctly.

              Sound familiar?
