You did though. You called people taking offense "getting more conservative." You directly attribute your alleged leftism with never taking offense at anything ever. If you meant anything else then you typed all the wrong words.

Yeah, bigoted assholes get offended over the existence of minorities.

People being offended by that bigotry is not the same fucking thing.

Now I’m starting to question your intelligence

There is more to leftism than being intelligent but it’s roots are in academia so it’s going to e a feature of it

Personal insults over criticism of your stated ignorance, how about fuck off.

Troll: calling people lesser disagreements is what you claim only conservatives do.

I claim they get offended because they can’t handle having their ideas challenged

I am not offended by your inability to understand that or that you are a right winger that consider ls themselves left of nazis

I just don’t see a point in continuing to reiterate the same point over and over when it’s clear you shut your eyes, covered your ears, and started screaming. Do you think I could convince you otherwise? If not then you’re in agreement with my previous statement

Word salad.

You literally do not have a point. You think endorsing offense is what makes leftism, except when you don't. You think conservatism is taking offense, except when someone explains what "taking offense" actually fucking means.

You refuse to see any difference between BIGOTS CRYING ABOUT MINORITIES and CALLING THOSE BIGOTS ASSHOLES.

Should anyone need to expend effort to explain why those two things are different?

Should anyone bother to expend one more second dealing with your trolling horseshit to the contrary?

I already explained what it is to you

You refuse to see any difference between BIGOTS CRYING ABOUT MINORITIES and CALLING THOSE BIGOTS ASSHOLES.

As I already pointed out, you can do the 2nd without being offended

Open a dictionary, troll.
