He is interfering with our markets by attacking Amazon among other things. Why should free marketers not call him out on what’s basic to capitalist societies?

Because I didn’t go hunting the prior post by Raxus, to which dvdjs responded and to which the post you cited was a response? Maybe if you really want to make a point you could track it down instead of just making mean-spirited comments because someone didn’t do it for you.
 
I do find it amusing that if someone exposes you on your double standard, their comments all of a sudden become mean spirited.
 
Ah! here’s what Raxus said to begin with:

"The fascist alt-left’s narrative is breaking down. Public sentiment is growing against them, and stuff like this (The context suggests he was talking about FISA warrants, but it never really says) is a good indicator. Clinton was never a good choice for President. Trump was the better choice by far, and those with their eyes and ears open already knew that. Praise God she didn’t make it into office.

So let’s break it down:

-Fascist alt-left. There’s no question the alt-left is fascist in some of its ways, but "fascist’ as applied to the alt-left is probably over-inclusive if applied broadly, because “fascist” is not a precise term, and neither is “alt-left”.
-Public sentiment is growing against them. If we’re still talking about the alt-left (as in Antifa) this is probably true since Nancy Pelosi recently disavowed them. https://www.dailywire.com/news/20410/even-nancy-pelosi-condemning-antifa-robert-kraychik
-Stuff like this (FISA WARRANT???) is a good indicator. Don’t know for sure what this refers to.
-Clinton was never a good choice for President. Hard to deny, and no few Dems say the same.
-Trump was the better choice by far. Opinion. Nothing nasty in saying it.
-…those with their eyes and ears open already knew that. Some did, like the LA Times and others.
-Praise God she didn’t make it into office. Those who opposed her would think so. Not a nasty thing to say.

to that, dvdjs quoted “fascist alt-left” and replied “Thanks for playing.” Kind of uncertain what that was intended to mean, but it seems to have been a dismissive reaction to “…fascist alt-left…”.

To which RAxus then responded, which seems to be his way of reasserting that the alt-left is, indeed, fascist:
Raxus said:
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, and endorses Communist / Marxist rhetoric and turns a blind eye to the bad things the other ducks in its group do, then it’s probably a silly, fascist, alt-left, Commie-loving duck.

So, the assertion was that the alt-left (the Antifa types, one assumes) are fascist in their ways. I don’t think most reasonable people, including Nancy Pelosi, would deny that. Therefore, now that I know what at least seems the full context, I would not condemn Raxus’ statement as “hateful”.

As near as I can tell, he wasn’t talking about Clinton at all. There were two different thoughts to it. I can see how one might think he was applying the “duck” thing to Clinton, but if you look at his initial post, dvdjs response which seemed limited to “fascist alt-left” and his response, it does not seem so.

Three hateful personal judgments and condemnations in one thread. Possibly a new record will be set.

Yes, you may very well set a new record. You certainly love to make hateful condemnations, I will agree with you there.
 
@Ridgerunner @stinkcat_14

Yes, I was referring to folks like Antifa, as well as any other far-left group that seeks to de-platform opinions that they don’t want to hear, or want anyone else hearing. Textbook fascist behavior.

The thread topic was not about Antifa, nor were any of the 53 posts that preceded yours.
It was about the Clinton campaign and the DNC.
So who are these alt-left Marxist Communist groups that you are talking about, and what made you think of them in the context of the thread.

I meant it in a general sense. You’d know that if you bothered to read all of what I said.

The Antifa TYPES, he said. Antifa are, despite their name, fascists who seek to de-platform anyone whose ideas or beliefs they disagree with. There are many on the left who ascribe to this particular form of zealotry; we see it all over (the UK and Canada being particularly bad about it). The only difference between them and Antifa is that they don’t smash windows and garbage cans.

I read your handful of posts on the thread., including the two germane to this one. They still seem out of left-field.

What were you talking about in those “good times”.
Was that before you came to the conclusion that name-calling and labeling was not good conduct?

Well, they might to you, but I suspect from this comment that you’re looking for more arguments you can start, so I respectfully decline. I’ve got better things to do.

It was a description based on observable traits, not a name.

Good day, sir / madame.

Trump’s a bigger threat to the world than Pence is to America. Progressive policies and LGBT people would suffer under Pence but that’s better than world war.

This was the same calculation I made regarding Trump vs. Clinton. That is, I expected minorities, women, and LBGT would suffer from his policies and he would cause a great deal of domestic turmoil. Whereas Clinton was quite open about her intent to establish a no-fly zone over Syria, bringing the US treacherously close to provoking a war with Russia. It’s no secret that such a hawkish policy had support on both sides of the aisle.

So Civil War II vs. WWIII. It made 2016 such a discouraging year for me, contemplating that choice.

Ultimately, I punted and voted third party rather than support either execrable candidate. That is to say, I voted for neither the left nut nor the right nut, but for the Johnson in the middle.
