PublicityStunted,

Both BlueRaven and Yourself have failed to demonstrate that I have made any stupid statement, at all.

BlueRaven has asserted that the Left has changed its views on whether “the Rich” should continue to exist, since 1971.

His assertion:

1) demonstrates that he believes that the song lyrics I cited indeed represented the pervasive view of the Left in 1971; and

2) failed to demonstrate any validity of his assertion that the Left has changed.

Further, your claim that finding one inaccuracy, even when it is peripheral to your opponents main argument, is sufficient to discredit anything your opponent may state.

By that metric, we are, all of us, including yourself and your entire ideological camp, forever discredited, for there is not one among us who is without error.

Hardly a sound argument.

However, your tactic DOES enable you to avoid confronting views with which you disagree and enable you to persist living intellectually unchallenged.

I humbly submit to you that you are following a recipe for mental stagnation, denial and intellectual dishonesty and counsel you consider confronting and debating the merits or demerits of viewpoints counter to your own.

The only thing you have succeeded in demonstrating is that my sample on this thread of Leftists performing hit-and-run “got-ya” rhetoricals (to coin a word) is 2 for 2.
