Oh, it's you. Why do you hound these poor people so? They have shown the world nothing but kindness and sincerity, cried out for the laws to be applied fairly and evenly, have remained sober and judicious in their thoughts and expression, and ask nothing of society other than than the power to force others to do as they say. They are the salt of the earth, and plan to win at all costs, literally salting the earth and burning the Constitution if necessary. But it's for our own good, so we should be thankful

I don't know, maybe because it's too easy and maybe because it shouldn't be allowed to go on without commentary. When they start patting each other on the back for their "astute" legal insights, I find it unbearable.

Amen to that, brother. Even if it’s like pissing in the wind, they deserve minimally to have someone with some brains stand up in the crowd and call bullshit. In fact, it’s the key action to initiate the preference cascade that will eventually bury their nonsense in an avalanche of reality. It can be lonely work, but the sputtering non-sequiturs and ad hominem attacks in response do make the effort worth it. It’s like these people have never received any pushback, and it makes them sitting ducks

Or wait for it, the 3 emoji reply. Why does anyone bother to do that? Do they tell themselves "there, I really got him"?
