It's exactly what you were questioning and which is why I gave you the concrete example why people get attached to this particular non-problem.
As for the rest of your comment, I think it went a little bit over your head.
- perching_aix 1y ago> It's exactly what you were questioning My remark about most people who bring up Brussels unprompted being rightwing grifters really was just that, and nothing else. It is not lost on me that like anything, they can and should be critiqued as well. It's just not really being done, and when it is done, it's usually coming from a place of ulterior motives and ill faith (for now), and so is fairly uncommon. So it's a strange thing to claim that that's what "people think of". No it isn't, not unless you're in the aforementioned circles, which is not the general populace at all.
- menaerus 1y agoOk, I wasn't making a comment about "rightwing grifters" although this is also certainly amenable to discussion but I was rather making a comment on why would some people find it contrary to what you said in your first comment - "It's still hilarious to me how upset people are at this (or at least pretend to be)."
- perching_aix 1y agoOh okay, I misunderstood. Could have just replied to my initial comment then to be fair.
