Thats my tactic. A logical non-personal dismantling of their argument.

Leftists have no common goal with anything liberty nor American, therefore one cannot argue or debate. 

That is why they resort to violence, destruction,  and chaos.  They are terrorist bent on the destruction of freedom. They need to be rooted out, prosecuted, and punished for treason. 

In my humble opinion...

Wrong.

You like that word but you seem to use it incorrectly so often.

You make accusations without explaining what you meant.

Meaningless, hollow words.

Sad that I need to explain this to you but ok,

The word wrong refers to whether something is factually correct or not, whether something is accurate or inaccurate. Yet you used it in response to my opinion statement indicating you don't understand the usage of the word.
Allow me to give you some examples:

1. 2+2=5
Here you can say wrong because this is math, there is a factual answer and the answer provided is incorrect.

2. I like cheese on my hamburger
Here you cannot use the word wrong because it is a statement of opinion. Another person is not making an incorrect statement, only an opinion and however you may disagree with their opinion, opinions aren't a matter of factually correct or incorrect.

Please let me know if you need further explanations

So you expect us to ignore the FACT that there are more than the definitions of the word you lamely "explained"?

That's just wrong.

There you go again, acting as if you are the arbiter of truth when it comes to subjects that are subjective in nature.

I could say I like ketchup on a hot dog and you would chime in claiming I am wrong.

Not to mention of course that your logic is flawed. I said I wouldn't equate leftists to antigua which you claimed was wrong yet not all leftists are antifa just like not all medical professionals are doctors.  :thumbsup:
