      Thus far the main criticism of the article seems to be that I'm not a true "leftist," a pointless "No True Scotsman" objection that is only raised when you have nothing substantive to say. And either way, I don't care to play label games with angry online commenters

          I don’t think party leaders recognize themselves. Most of my arguments against 2020 democrat policies are simply videos of Obama and themselves pre 2008.

          he needs to go back to his safe space, his parents' basement perhaps? a coffeehouse? a brew pub? a friend's cyber den?!!! or he can just stay glued to his phone in public all the time, avoid other thoughts and people

          I understand your point, but I think the platform is part of the message. Whether your position is allowed to be freely expressed or not, it is folded into an ugly larger concoction by Carlson, thus staining and discrediting your positions, even if valid.

          Not sure why he even contacted you for this piece - maybe the original draft was "I think grifters shouldn't go on Tucker Carlson's show" and he just kept your comments?

          Those who characterize you as right-wing are either ignorant, or liars, or propagandists, or simply stupid.

          Michael your statement is just part of why I follow you & respect your opinions. I’m a conservative, but what kind of country are we turning into when we don’t listen to opposing views & have respectful dialogue about issues. 🙌 & thank you for being you 😘🇺🇸
