This kind of reply is intellectually dishonest & cowardly. My post has substantive criticisms, and you've addressed none of them - haven't even indicated that you noticed them. Which means you're reacting to a nonspecific attack on AOC (your main underlying fallacy) and then conflating it with someone else's attack on AOC (second fallacy). All without even pretending to have read anything I actually wrote. I'm amazed that people posting in this forum aren't embarrassed to engage this way.

If this isn't just intellectual cowardice, then we're left to speculate why anyone would react in such an unthinking way, in a "rational skepticism" discussion forum. It can't be simping for a politician who doesn't know you exist, right? Then, what - regurgitating social media style attacks because that's the limit of your curiosity & critical thinking? No one is compelling you to trolling like Spearthrower... you choose to. That's stunning.
