Mexico’s president agrees to stop migration into U.S. after tariff threats, Trump says

What do you mean? Please, do explain. Because if the words Hateful, Homophonic, transphobic, deplorable, xenophobic, or garbage comes to mind, that is specially me and I don't care. In fact, when it comes from the left, I wear it as a badge of honor. My point is that if a liberal is calling me these names, I am likely doing something right.

Peoplee who enjoys watching bullies.

If it were me, then it would, and has, given me pause for thought. Not that I'd necessarily express any doubts to anyone. Just to myself. I'd make sure my position was valid and there were no opposing views that were correct. I rarely found that I was entirely correct. Maybe in some respects was wrong. But I have used the same position as you nevertheless. Just take a side and give a big middle finger to the opposition.

But there is something wrong with that. Because you don't deserve how you might be described. You haven't earned it. Nor does it necessarily reflect exactly who you are. Wearing it 'as a badge of honour' reflects badly on both sides. It doesn't help.

A lot of times it means you have hit the nail on the head and bad-mouthing is all they have left.

My point was, but obviously not expressed well enough, that taking an abrasive attitude as a matter of course is never a good option. Your mileage, as they say, may vary.

Right.... It has nothing to do with the person calling you this being liberal. It has nothing to do with that at all.

Reminds me of some neighbor that rides around with the bumper sticker "Trump 2024 F- your feelings!" Such vulgarities is nothing to be proud about, and tasteless.

Or people who enjoy watching bullies reduced to begging and boot licking.

Oh, well, if there's two robots willing to the jobs of ten million deported immigrants then that changes everything.

For over 8 years, I have been called every name under the book. The worst were from people of my own color for having the audacity of voting Republican. So yeah. I have gotten to the point where when a white liberal wants to call me something, I will proudly wave it like a badge of honor just like the BLM hoodlums pump their fists.

So you want to act exactly like some people you despise? I'm probably not the only person to find that odd.

I could have also said that I would wear the label like a rainbow flag at a pride parade and the point would be the same. I just wished you would see the point instead of searching for an excuse to argue.
