At any rate the criticism in both cases is the rejection of those ‘empty land’ folks. It is consistent. I supported it then and I support it now. What I don’t support is then turning around and dismissing those people and states as empty land. This isn’t rocket surgery.
No, it’s not rocket surgery, yet you literally just restated the contradictory position without a hint of self-awareness. In one case, you acknowledge (and condemn) that your dreaded shitlib opposition aren’t working off the 50-state strategy; in this case, you pretend that your dreaded shitlib opposition are working off the 50-state strategy so you have an excuse to call them hypocrites.
They, by your own description, are not ‘turning around’ and dismissing those folks, because by your own description, they don’t support the 50-state strategy to begin with. But wouldn’t it be awful if you had to argue your points on the actual merits instead of accusing your enemies of being hypocrites as a replacement for putting in any sort of thought or substance to your usual reflexively reactionary takes?
I think you don’t understand what I initially said in this thread here, and have taken that personally.
Considering that I’m the one in this thread who’s objected to the map’s misleading nature by pointing out that most of it is empty land?
Your attempts at plausible deniability are, uh, not very plausible. Nor is your usual extensive intellectual disingenuity impressive.
Nope. You are adding extra context that isn’t part of this and deciding you are allowed something because of others.
I’m just calling your way of interacting with others repugnant cause I am seeing it and it feels worth calling out.
I’m absolutely responsible for my own actions and words. Not really sure where you got the idea that I was refusing responsibility for my own actions and words. I just don’t find tone to be the highest virtue possible.

Look, I know you’ve long ago tagged me the tankie and yourself as the chad, it’s whatever. But you need to stop calling yourself a shitlib.

Ew. What rude way to talk to people.
You’re right, mischaracterization and negative insinuations are only okay if you have the right tone.
Sorry that I don’t play asspat games.

Okay. Sorry that you dislike pattern recognition too.
Sorry you dont want to accept that you are responsible for your own actions and words even if we can’t control others.
