Good for both of you. Logical argument is only for people who have already proven that they subscribe to the progressive agenda. Downvotes and shaming are all

Oh look, an appeal to identity politics from the person whose one contribution to the site is "The Fundamental Theorem of Welfare Politics" on Wikipedia.

  I have zero idea what your post means, and it was "Fundamental Theorems of Welfare Economics".

  What does number of submissions have to do with anything. You've truly turned into a elitist fuckwit. All them internet points must have gone to your head.

    The overall number of posts creates the basis for a ratio that demonstrates interests amongst divergent topics. In this case, yours have been placed under suspicion for defending a libertarian viewpoint and separately, one that maintains white privilege. I believe the frequent intersection between these views was the basis for his comment. I'm sure you disagree though.

I can't parse this sentence. >In this case, yours have been placed under suspicion for defending a libertarian viewpoint and separately, one that maintains white privilege. I believe the frequent intersection between these views was the basis for his comment. I'm sure you disagree though. The post you are replying to wasn't me. Also, I have never defended a libertarian viewpoint, and my one submission was also not libertarian (perhaps you should read it to confirm). Anyway I find this character attack tiresome, and against the spirit of public debate. If I had said something in one post that clearly contradicted something I said in another, I would be happy to explain it. But it seems like the poster was just having a go at me for posting right wing stuff. I am a right winger. Other posters will just have to deal with it. EDIT: edited to remove some assumptions about your views.
