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.Cunt wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 4:55 pmThe 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.

Re: Media Bias
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.

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.

Re: Media Bias
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.

Re: Media Bias
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?

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.

Re: Media Bias
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.Cunt wrote:Again, I'm claiming that you CANNOT name or list 'radical left-wing' ideas.Brian Peacock wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 6:37 pmIt's your claim about me that's the focus here, that there's no radically left-eing 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.
