The only thing that would make it more hilariously, is if someone came along asking outright who the radical left was.
Ridiculously question indeed. We really don't need to know who the radical left was when recommending the pruneration of the radical left. At least no more so than what Obamagate is when recommending that Obamagate be investigatedly.
The fact that you can't clearly identify the radical left makes my point.

The point is that you cannot, without risking the 'measured response' of the left media/twitterati/mob.
Put your point to the test. In order to do so you must tell me your answer to my hilarious question, though, and you must explain how that left could and prune that radical left. As for why it should, I know that already. It's for the same reason that moderate Christians should prune those Southern Baptists and the prosperity Christians headed by the likes of Creflo Dollar.

It's ok old fella...I know you would ruin your social circles if you criticized a radical left idea.

It's normal, common, even.

If you don't believe the media is biased, check out Steven Crowder, and how his legal actions have been going.

Of course, he called that Maza guy a naughty name, so you probably aren't allowed to give Crowder fair treatment.

You give me an example of a radical left idea and I'll tell you if I'd unwelcome it or not.

You can recognize the radial left because it has no corners

If the left could identify and prune the radical left, it would be stronger and better.

My point is about your inability to do it. Not mine.

But thanks for re-iterating my point so clearly.

No. Your point was that you'd guessed I would never comdemn a radically left idea.

How can I 'try you' when I can't even get you to identify one?

When you can provide a list of 'radical left-wing' ideas, I might pick one. Until then, keep making my point about your inability to do list them.

It's your claim about me that's the focus here, that there's no radically left-wing idea I would condemn, so, if you're able to pwn your own words, all you have to do is give me an example of a really shoddy radical left-wing idea and I'll tell you if I would actually condemn or unwelcome it. Proper radical left-wing ideas mind you, no stawmanning or made-up bollocks.

Is it the Radical Left having Radical Ideas that make them the Radical Left or is it the Radical Ideas themselves that make them the Radical Left?

Again, I'm claiming that you CANNOT name or list 'radical left-wing' ideas.

I mean, you could list a few and easily prove me wrong about it...but then you would have to list radical left-wing ideas not worth supporting, and I doubt that would be comfortable for you.

I'm beginning to think that no-one here has ever seen any radical left.

Nor have they seen a media bias against Steven Crowder, nor have they glossed over his successful lawsuits etc.

If you can't even own and take responsibility for the words you typed onto the internet then you probably don't respect yourself very much - something also suggested by your pleading for me to justify your claims about me for you.
