I'm sorry I'm hurting feelings all over the fediverse. I just care so much that I'm not afraid to say out loud that it's a dumb slogan and those that picked it are dumb because of it

It's not my feelings you're hurting. You're hurting yourself if you're viewing other people as inferior.

My point about the slogan thing is more about the disingenuous statements from liberal pundits and specifically Obama's comments on "defund the police", as opposed to a criticism of you, so sorry if my critique came off as too harsh toward you on that.

If you think its a bad slogan that's fair, but that line has been used by disingenuous people to try and derail things and thats what got me aggro.
