      Now I know your trolling, pretending that the term “Global North” isn’t a known shorthand for essentially the G8 and coined specifically by the left to point out the disparity with the rest of the world on a global power and economic scale

          Wow, you really are an absolute caricature of a social justice warrior and an ass who likes to put words in people’s mouths to boot. Having the knowledge that a thing exists means you support the thing that you know exists, huh? Since you pointed out the existence of an Anglo/Eurocentric world view first I guess that must mean you think normal means whiteness and you are trying to welcome me to the club?

            Ah, now this all makes sense. You’re a conservative.

            Since you pointed out the existence of an Anglo/Eurocentric world view first I guess that must mean you think normal means whiteness and you are trying to welcome me to the club?

            That’s not how putting words in quotations marks work.

              I am not a conservative, I am a left leaning classical libertarian that wants universal healthcare, UBI, LGBTQ rights, safe and legal abortions, and both religion and money out of government because these are the most effective/cost effective ways for government to support the common good.

              You trying to put words in my mouth such as gender and sex being the same, or that I am a bigot who thinks normal = whiteness because I point out that social media started in and is primarily used in rich Euro/Americasphere countries is why you are a caricature, and I am real sick and tired of you doing so.

                You think “social justice warrior” is an insult. So maybe you should rethink your other positions.

                I’m happy to be insulted by the same term that could be used on Malcolm X or Nelson Mandela, even though it definitely does not apply. It’s very flattering nonetheless.

                  No, I think that being a caricature by calling anyone who you seem to think is any amount to the right of you a white supremacist bigot and misconstruing them as such by putting words in their mouth like a character made up by Fox News is what’s asinine, and would be the “insult” in this case.

                  -Edit-

                  And you are seriously telling me that because I don’t pass your purity test I should rethink and abandon my leftist ideals/positions and just what, go right wing? This, right here, is why you are a caricature.

                    I was going to respond more substantively, but then I saw your edit and I realized you badly trying to gaslight me. This is what I said:

                    So maybe you should rethink your other positions.

                    Which means I wasn’t telling you that you that you should do anything.

                    You are not an idiot. You know what the word maybe means.

                    You are terrible at gaslighting and if that is what this has devolved into, I’ll just report you for trolling and move on.
