Spare us the melodrama. You speak pretty, but you're very much a liberal. I say this as a negative. You'll cede ground in the guise of "maybe there is something to the sports issue. This is a legitimate concern." You then talk of fairness? - ThreadSky

Biological advantage was never an actual issue in sports. We have quite literally superhuman with biological advantages out there dominating fields, and we celebrate them.

This isn't an issue of fairness, and you know this. You can see it.

Spare you the melodrama? Oh, but I insist. You’ve earned it. Here you stand, not to engage in discussion, not to reason, not to persuade—but to sneer, to police the perimeter of your own orthodoxy, and to hiss ‘"liberal" as if it were an excommunication. What a small, pathetic endeavor.

Then insist. Make noise. Prove to us what happens when you scratch a liberal.

Make more articles with AI generated images. Talk about how the right and the left should unite to save democracy. Pretend that Trump, that Elon Musk taking over your country is an isolated incident and not a symptom.

Oh, I see. When you scratch a liberal, you get .... coherence? An argument based on principle rather than blind factionalism? A mind that acknowledges complexity rather than submitting to the crude dialectic of "us" versus "them"?

A liberal, unlike you, can actually engage with competing ideas rather than policing the boundaries of ideological purity like a dime-store commissar. You mistake my refusal to adopt dogma for weakness, when in fact, it is the very thing that makes me immune to it.

You scratch a liberal, Mike, and you get a facist. I'm sure you knew that. You've read a lot, after all.

Tell me more about how cool and smart you are for being a liberal. Tell me about how in awe I should be.

Then, after it all, you can take a real stance.

Coward.
