      We're constantly warned to beware of left-wing Assad "apologists," but I've yet to actually find any. Where are these mythical creatures?

      "Apologia" is when you mount an affirmative defense of the thing in question. Virtually no one of any prominence does that re: Assad.

      Then the accusation is, opposing intervention constitutes a "de facto apology" for Assad. Which is so obviously fallacious, it's astounding.

          Being labelled an 'Assadist' is just this decade's version of Bush's you're-either-with-us-or-against-us

          they criticize regime change & so you accuse them of praising assad (which they don't). perfect example of said fallaciousness ;)

          add “refusal to criticize or blame”, whether relevant to conversation or not.

          The same thing happened when criticizing Hillary Clinton. It made you automatically a “Trump supporter”.
