I feel like I've actually encountered some Libs IRL and in other online spaces who at least sounded more intelligent. Every one that wanders in here just insists that their right, cites Wikipedia, and tries to troll people like a 14 year old who stole their moms laptop.

You think we'd occasionally get a somewhat more articulate one there but I've yet yo see it.

I know it's a meme in its own right now, but LiberalSocialist's "power dynamics" thing at least had some legs when it came to the material conditions that are most likely in place between significantly different aged people in a relationship, even if they're both adults.

I'm still surprised power dynamics is what stuck the most when "do you disagree?" was right there

"Do you disagree?" should have been the dunkable repeated quote. "Power dynamics" was a legitimate argument to me.

I also found "Power dynamics" as a response to like every comment after a certain point to be legitimately funny. If I remember a years old thread correctly LS did respond with some arguments early on but defaulted to it as the comment count got real high.
