    handling immigration, international relations, treatment of minorities

    Again, laser focused on perceptions and presentation. Not actual policies or outcomes.

    Neoliberals stand for nothing.

      You expect a sophisticated argument coming from me about specifics at this point in the discussion? And since you didn’t get one you double down on calling me a neoliberal? You have misdirected anger and jump too quickly to conclusions. Instead of the big assumption, you could have easily asked “what about his policies” early on.

          You’re clearly having a bad day. You’re picking fights with everyone in your comment history. I’m not gonna defend myself from the box you ignorantly put me in. That’s not what healthy discussion looks like. I’m not going to play by your rules. You’re going to use this to reinforce your assumptions, but that’s ok. I’ll talk specifics and policies with other people, in a better environment.

            I pick fights with people who support fascists every day. I enjoy shutting down fascists. And you can’t name one single Trump policy you oppose (or likely not one the Democrats weren’t also guilty of).

              That was never your original question and you never asked respectfully. You were never interested in a discussion with me. If you were you’d have asked clarifying questions to learn my position. It’s been phantoms the whole time. What bit of information from what I said allows you to attach me to a phantom which you then attack?

              Again, it’s not that I can’t name a policy, it’s that your behavior is angry and disrespectful and I’m not going to intellectually engage with it.

              For you to behave like this, demand answers, then tag me for something because I refuse to play by your rules is ridiculous.

              You’re not looking to have a real discussion. You’re trying to let go of anger.

              Try running a few miles or something instead.

                You’re just proving my point. Your issue is with the lack of decorum (even in this discussion). Not the policies.

                  The mental gymnastics lmao. Are you saying that people who want to have healthy discussions (as opposed to the toxic shit you’re doing here) are… neoliberals? Or what? How does this prove your point?

                    You’ve already proven my point. I’m laying out the conclusion for any lurkers following the thread.
