And just what, by chance, is a Regressive Leftist?I think this is my favorite:
I never have to name names. I just mention the "Regressive Left", and the same posters jump in to deny and deflect and attack.
But they'll also claim that there's no such thing as the "Regressive Left".
You cannot make this shit up.

And you expect people to engage in debate with you? Lol.
Yes, I've noticedI think some of them see it, and it might even make them vaguely uncomfortable. For example, when they find themselves making excuses for aspects of Islam that go against the very principles of universal human rights and women's rights they are supposed to champion.The shallow, simplistic, binary thinking of hardcore partisan ideologues.I think it is cute when the uneducated use the term "rwnj" to describe people who support the views of liberals like Sam Harris and Bill Maher. What's next in this little Orwellian world of the uneducated -- calling somebody who supports the work of George Will a Communist?
If you're not a LWNJ, you must be a RWNJ. And vice versa.
But I am convinced they don't even see it.

However, remain in lockstep they must, so they can't/won't back down and therefore find themselves having to employ false equivalances and reductio ad absurdums galore, to both safe face, and to insinuate those in opposition are bigots, racists and islamophobes, who therefore they have an alterior motive, whos word is dirt, and who are (hopefully), discredited.
I suspect some wouldn't behave like this in RL if faced with someone attempting to discuss where Islam and women's rights, for example, diverge, at least I hope so. In fact, we have an example in this thread where coyote is amicable and even in agreement with flacc, but virulently disagrees and mock funnies other posters when they express exactly the same concerns. Go figure.
I see you noticed the same thing I noticed.
I have Coyote following me around to harass, troll and and mock me by using the "funny" button to indicate her support for all things Islamic. If I mention that Jews have the right to life without being terrorized, it's funny. If I oppose the Islamist objective, it's funny. If I don't support rape as an instrument of Jihad, it's funny.
When people become so wrapped up in their zealotry as to resort to this behavior, it doesn't say much about them.
Yes, people are different face to face than they are in person. The internet strips away much of our humanity. Of course, it strips away more for some than it does others.
I'll bet you could drag all the Regressive Lefties in there and, between them, they wouldn't be able to come up with one (1) example of them attacking Christianity for its misdeeds.
Fascinating stuff.

It's all about deflecting and attempts at point scoring and ridiculing. Hardly surprising really, given the absurd positions they find themselves in with all the contortionism they have to engage in to maintain their liberal pretentionsThe Regressive Lefties aren't serious posters. They can't be.Profound. And you expect people to engage in debate with you? Lol.^ mac and tilly sitting in a tree, chattering nonsense all.day.long...........

I have provided DOZENS of examples. Somehow you "didn't see" them, liar.reminds me of that political "chic" - OPs always avoiding their own non-point while claiming victory.
why are you avoiding posting an example of the political left doing what you claim?
hint: opinions on political forums are not actual public policy proposals.
True.The best way to bring about religious freedom in Saudi Arabia is as yet undiscovered. However, I can say with certainty that ending religious freedom in London or here.....is NOT going to accomplish that goal.
Ya dumb shit.
It will get lots of us dead.
Which is why you-and-yours are being pushed back onto the sidelines again, this year.
Pushed where? Again?
