    Flattening every conversation about U.S. politics to "you idiot, the U.S. does horrible things to other countries!" is stupid. No one here is arguing with you on that. We have a hundred posts about U.S. crimes abroad, we can talk about what goes on inside the U.S., too.

    Did I say Democrats are good?

    "Democrats have done a few good things" is not remotely the same as "Democrats are good," especially when I go out of my way a bunch of times to say Democrats are not good.

    You know what critical support is? You know what the CPC line on Stalin is (70% good, 30% bad)? Then you know "they've done some things good" is not a blanket endorsement, even if a person has done a whole hell of a lot more good than Democrats ever have.

    You're just doing reddit shit. Not engaging the substance of a comment in favor of dumb little quips and nitpicks.

    Doing reddit shit like ignoring the many times I've explained that's not remotely what I'm doing.

    I wonder what the rhetorical device for "I'm not touching you is called", because you CERTAINLY come juuuuuuuuuuuuust shy of defense just about every time you open your mouth about the party of jackasses, and I'm kind of disgusted by it. Maybe you're the one 'doing reddit shit' trying to cudgel even the slightest iota of respect for Dems out of the people who won't give it; that sure as shit sounds like some ESS, AHS, Tankiejerk-adjacent muleshit.

    Oh fuck off. Acknowledging that people/parties/countries do both good and bad things should not be novel to any communist -- look at the CPC's stance on Stalin or Mao.
