    Yeah, and you're one of those that will claim Trump kicked her ass in their debate. Talk about denial.

    Did I? He was better, but he only had to show up for that. She did better than expected, but it's because she got all the questions before hand, was well rehearsed, and had the moderators on her side. He should have dominated her even more, but seemed to be winging it.

    Literally taken a position that only the most indoctrinated MAGA believe.

    Kudos for not being afraid to show how out there you are.

    Oh was i upset? Lol. Are you guys actually serious with your kneejerk reactions of calling everyone racist? Or is this an inside joke i’m being left out of?

    I was ridiculing the rabid neoliberal maniac for using the phrase “RUSSIAN AGENT JILL STEIN…” in his stupid deranged tweet.
    I don’t give two fucks about David Duke. I didn’t even address that part of the tweet.

    Maybe racism will die in this country when white liberals quit trying to squeeze it out of turnips.

    David Duke is literally a racist. It's not a kneejerk reaction to call him one. There is no joke here, inside or other, David Duke is a racist.

    And are you sure it's racism you want to die, or people who call out racists? Last I've checked, David Duke is not a Democrat.

    Is someone claiming David Duke is not a racist? He says so himself!

    Imagine saying Harris is bad while your own candidate the same day was talking about calling out the military on Nancy and Paul Pelosi and said he was just passing along that he heard it was reported that legal immigrants were eating neighbors' pets and "a lot of other things they shouldn't be" after earlier this week forgetting what song he wanted played at his own town hall, where he stopped answering questions and spent more than a half-hour listening to music.

    Baier constantly interrupted Harris. His questions were Republican talking points. He literally played a Trump campaign ad. He lied about Trump's threats against political opponents.

    She remained calm, did not take bait, made her points. She was presidential.

    Imagine Trump doing unscripted unedited interview with Rachel Maddow, who is not rude to guests. You can't.

    At this point, i know you aren’t a stupid person, so i have to assume you are being deceitful on purpose. I made a comment more or less defending Jill Stein from a really silly attack calling her a Russian agent. Despite explaining that twice now, you still refuse to address it and would rather take the shameless route of simply lumping me in with the likes of someone like David Duke. Do better.

    Perhaps giving ANY attention whatsoever to a washed-up bigot from the 80’s is counterproductive to everyone on all sides.

    I didn't lump you in with David Duke. Here is your post, not sure how that is defending Jill Stein.

    It was in reference to the lefty twitter maniac attacking Jill Stein, who is also a lefty. I suppose “defending” her may be a stretch, but i was certainly calling out an unfounded criticism of her. I was commenting on the state of lefties attacking lefties for not subscribing to the neolib agenda. David Duke just happened to be adjacent in the tweet, he has no relevance to any point i was trying to make.

    It’s just irritating to make a comment, have it lazily be labeled as racist-adjacent, then it gets a bunch of likes from people who will click like on anything attacking another poster they dont like…and then the myth is further perpetuatated that I secretly subscribe to some racist ideologies. And it all stems from nothing.

    To be fair, it stemmed--in this case--from a lack of clarity on your part. (The fact that you quoted crandc instead of the original post that included the tweet didn't help) But I totally get what you're saying now. I actually appreciate that you took the time to clarify your comments; makes a lot more sense now.

    A Jewish person saying Jill Stein is Jewish is hardly an attack. @crandc didn't criticise her unless you think calling someone Jewish is a criticism. She also didn't bring up the Russian thing. Your post might have made a bit better sense if you had replied to the person who posted two tweets about David Duke and Jill Stein.
