Just a reminder... no matter how much you listen or try to genuinely understand them.. this is almost always the outcome when you discuss things with a leftist... Either you agree with them, or they get offended, make personal attacks, and walk.
Every interaction I have with the left leaves me wanting to have less to do with them than the time before, and this is sad since I associate more with left ideals in many cases than right ones.
@freemo What do you consider to be the qualifying factors for a "leftist"? It could be that your observed outcome is a result of your definition.
@LouisIngenthron @freemo I feel like "leftist" refers to someone on the left who is skeptical of liberalism, e.g. communists or someone overcome by identity/oppression politics (I'll call them CSJ here).
I'm sure it's one of those "ask 100 people you'll get 100 different answers" kind of thing.
@ech
Most (though not all) definitions of the left would work here in my expiernce. If they are a "blue no matter who" sort of person, or even further left, and happen to live in the USA then there is a pretty good chance this applies.
