Quoting Chomsky; I see that you're a man of high standards.

But dead0man, stop trying to strawman the left. We all know about your ulterior motives here...

Can you act like you have an ounce of maturity, for once? My God, this is so cringe-inducing.
I mean, let's just put aside the fact that this post was not meant to be taken 100% seriously, or the fact that (at least in my opinion) I have posted several serious, mature posts. You want me to be more mature? Sure.

First of all, let's ask, what is the point of the thread? Almost everyone on Atlas agrees that Antifa sucks, with the exception of maybe publicunofficial and a few other people to the left of me. So, the post is essentially preaching to the choir on how Antifa is violent.

Now, a philosophy of mine is that everything happens for a reason. I believe that people ultimately are trying to reach a goal with every action they take. So, what was dead0man's goal in posting this thread? Is it for personal pleasure? No, who would take pleasure in posting violence? Is it for informing the public? Again, refer to my point about the Atlas consensus on Antifa.

Judging by post history, it can be said that dead0man has a hatred for economically left-wing ideas, namely, everything to the left of social democracy. Antifa, and really college-campus SJWs in general, are already hard-wired into being associated with the left. So by consistently bringing up their idiocy, you can get people to be "turned off" from ideas such as democratic socialism when, in reality, such concepts are founded on completely different principles. I've seen this happen to many people, and it's one of my main theory as to why (as of now) Gen Z is polling to be very conservative.

Of course, I didn't want to make my post be taken 100% seriously. There is most likely some truth to what I laid out, but it's also very possible - and probable - that he was just bored and felt like starting this thread. I also found this association to be a very simplistic one. There's really not that much depth to it. So, I decided to mock this idea, by using all caps and misspelled words, essentially killing two birds with one stone.

TL;DR I didn't intend to be mature here, but it's quite obvious that at least some of my posts have been mature, so chill.

Hey guess what, I'm not posting for you or by your command....so, ya know, go pound sand.
You have as much of a right to start threads as I have to mock them.

Although, to your credit - that was a good rhyme.

He is an angry SocDem, and he's NOT going to take it anymore.
Tbh this isn't a very good username. The "angry" bit was because I noticed that many of my posts tend to be more inflammatory than the posts of others, along with my general personality.

If you were to put all social democrats on a political spectrum, I would definitely be on the left flank.
