Je suis libtard!
I do get where you are coming from. There is no snark here: if all you see is articles characterizing something you may like or agree with as all those negative things, you may think that is the majority viewpoint. BUT: as was shown, sometimes our media is much more partisan than the average person. The commentary is often much more biased than that of most people. Most of it almost all "liberals" are more centrist than is portrayed here. It seems to me that often one cannot even have an opposing viewpoint without being a "libtard" or a "racist redneck" in reality the enormous majority of both parties is full of people like you and I that CAN have a rational discussion.

The few times I have attempted to engage in intelligent discourse regarding liberal viewpoints, with liberals, anywhere other than here.... has degraded on their part towards privilege checks, racism cries, etc etc etc. Without fail, even when I remain as textually/verbally neutral as physically possible.
Ya'll here are more of a minority than you honestly understand, methinks.
Interesting read: "the Milo playbook"
The best part was Betsy DeVos getting accosted by liberals on the street and the DailyKos calling it awesome...I think that's a libidiot for you.
Watch Betsy DeVos get a lesson in resistance as protesters block entrance to a D.C. school
Also on the tucker maxx piece...this guy is saying he wrote the playbook for a guy who claims to have used a whole bottle of KY for one back door trip...I don't think he did that.

Did you ignore @AWP's post. Libidiot is the same as libtard.
I was just giving him some warning points and you went and stole my kill.
For total transparency: on this site we have a warning system. If a member gets 5 or more warning points they are automatically banned. That is what happened here. There was no bias. No punishment for opposing thinking. Just straight: don't do this, he did that, got warnings, moved past the threshold...
Dude, I would say the same thing and I classify myself as a liberal. It's the most frustrating thing. Well, the second most- when someone gets frustrated with me because I have good points/counterpoints to their not-well-thought-out-argument and they just resort to name calling. THAT is pretty frustrating, but that's frustrating with any topic.The few times I have attempted to engage in intelligent discourse regarding liberal viewpoints, with liberals, anywhere other than here.... has degraded on their part towards privilege checks, racism cries, etc etc etc. Without fail, even when I remain as textually/verbally neutral as physically possible.

While that is true, the successful marketing of that douchebaggery (and asshattery, possibly fuckwittery) things and the parallel to Milo is a pretty good read.I'll take everything in that with a grain of salt. Tucker Max is the king of misogyny and douchebaggery. Seems this is just an attempt to save face or garner publicity for the writer.
If I see one more instance of "libtard" or whatever else is used to describe both liberals or conservatives alike, Ima start dropping bombs. FFS, no one can make a point without junior high-level name calling? Christ, I'm just to the left of a Mongol warlord on some issues and the name calling bullshit is old. "Libtards" or "Nazis" for the right, do y'all have idea how ridiculous you sound?
