You think “social justice warrior” is an insult. So maybe you should rethink your other positions.
I’m happy to be insulted by the same term that could be used on Malcolm X or Nelson Mandela, even though it definitely does not apply. It’s very flattering nonetheless.
No, I think that being a caricature by calling anyone who you seem to think is any amount to the right of you a white supremacist bigot and misconstruing them as such by putting words in their mouth like a character made up by Fox News is what’s asinine, and would be the “insult” in this case.
-Edit-
And you are seriously telling me that because I don’t pass your purity test I should rethink and abandon my leftist ideals/positions and just what, go right wing? This, right here, is why you are a caricature.
I was going to respond more substantively, but then I saw your edit and I realized you badly trying to gaslight me. This is what I said:
So maybe you should rethink your other positions.
Which means I wasn’t telling you that you that you should do anything.
You are not an idiot. You know what the word maybe means.
You are terrible at gaslighting and if that is what this has devolved into, I’ll just report you for trolling and move on.
You know that that words can have different connotations based on how they are used, and there is a vast difference between using maybe in a sentence like “maybe you want ice cream” and “maybe you should shut up” when used in an argument.
Both still indicate a positive stance or recommendation to the other person, and “maybe you should rethink your positions” can only be taken as the speaker passive aggressively advising the other person to change said positions. Hell, it’s almost impossible to find another connotation to “maybe you…”, as it is almost exclusively used in a passive aggressive manner.
Attempting to claim gaslighting is a cheap cop out, like a TV mob boss saying they didn’t threaten someone when they said “maybe they will encounter a little ‘accident’”. Gaslighting also has a definition, is a form of abuse meant to cause a person to question their sanity and grasp of reality, and I take major offense to being accused of such.
You accuse me of bigotry and either quote other people as if they were me or make up positions you say I hold for said accusations, accuse me in a round about way of white supremacy by saying I think normalness is whiteness, then accuse me of gaslighting for taking your comment as passive aggressive and want to report me for trolling? If this isn’t trolling from you then I feel really sorry for you.
