    If I don’t write that im a progressive, then I spend the whole time explaining why i disagree with conservatives. If I write that im left/progressive, then i spend the whole time debating whether im an impostor

    I can’t win.

      Quit trying to “win.” Quit virtue signaling how “left” you are. You’ll lead a happier existence if you’re not so hung up on how others see you.

        I don’t mean “win” as in winning a debate. I mean “win” as in there is no possible way to have a discussion on ANYTHING with someone like you because you’ve decided the outcome long before the conversation has even started. In this whole debacle we didn’t get to address anything except your incessant attacks on the integrity of my political alignment.

            Can you clarify which contradiction exactly? I’m not understanding what your point is.

              You say you’re “left”, but you trust the US court system to judge decide who is or isn’t a murderer.

              That kind of legalism is for neoliberals, not leftists.

                I see. So the courts and institutions are not to be trusted.

                I have no idea what left means after today. I’m for universal Healthcare, gun reform, higher taxes. Etc. I don’t know what you call that.
