Bardish Chagger (Waterloo) has been named Small Business and Tourism Minister in Trudeau's cabinet

The thing is that I don't find it particularly useful to engage in nitpicking behavior, because it never leads to meaningful discourse. Not ALL university professors are worthless parasites, and not ALL bureaucrats are lazy assholes. Not ALL women are obsessed with cellphones and Instagram selfies, and not ALL men play Xbox and jerk off to porn all day, but then you look at the aggregate and just have to concede that the bar is indeed set very, very low. So for every exception that comes up and states, "But no, I am NOT a parasite!" That's great...I wasn't really talking about you.

And speaking of the left wing in general, again, the bar is set very, very low. I welcome you to take a visit to San Francisco anytime if you want to take a gander at the total degeneracy the marks social justice outrage; essentially a left wing caricature. In fact, I am almost certain that being a straight white male demotes you to second class citizenry. Being in a college environment, you never really gave second thought to the left wing lunatics, but out in the real world they're just annoying as hell and you do what you can do distance yourself from them.

As I stated before, the most frequent tendencies I notice from this outraged individuals are: 1) Nitpicking, 2) doubling down, and 3) general snarkiness. There's always exceptions! But from sharing notes with others, these seem to be the general tendencies of left wing debaters. Because of my propensity towards the bigger picture, just because I say that you're fucking worthless, doesn't mean that you're fucking worthless. I think there is a level of shit test embedded to the extent that if you are NOT immediately outraged by the initial, assholish assault, then you may actually be capable of carrying the discourse further. I stated before that a lot of the right wing bloggers and vloggers these days are starting to present themselves in an almost obnoxious manner, because people who turn their brains off at the sight of various social cues are honestly not people "worthy" enough to enjoy their content.

So the TL;DR is that it is not useful for me to add like a million qualifiers, when just a single, seemingly retarded statement does WAY more. Plus, it's just funny to make fun of the left wing when their caricatures consist of your venal bankers on Wall Street (yes, they are left wing) all the way to your social justice feminists with thick-framed glasses. Or those folks who are libertarian crusaders but are really just liberals!
