Comment on Democrats doing the nazi salute

The “y’all” is me broadly addressing the Dems and anyone that would identify as left. I haven’t seen anyone bashing the ADL from the left until this Elon situation. I mostly heard of people on the right saying the ADL sucks and is full of communists or whatever they feel like calling people they don’t like that day.

This Elon thing happened and (to me) it looks like the teams did a lil swap. Suddenly the right loves the ADL for coming to defend their golden child and the left is saying the ADL have sucked for a long time.

Now it’s probable I missed some grievances the left may have had for ADL in the past as I generally ignore things like the ADL. But that’s not a slight against the ADL. I just don’t listen to any 3 letter agencies. It goes against my religion.

It’s ok to be ignorant to goings on in the world. But you just admitted to reacting emotionally by assuming the standpoint of the political left, so your opinion is no longer valid.

  I’m not assuming the standpoint of the political left… That is the standpoint of the political left. Literally every single website and subreddit is the political left having a collective meltdown over the same exact thing. I haven’t gone on my Facebook or anything because I don’t really use those sights but I am willing to bet all of my friends and family (the political left we speak of) are having varying degrees of aforementioned meltdown.
  
  I’m ignorant to most things going on in the world as most people are. We only have so much capacity for global situations let alone what’s going on in our own front yard. Do you claim to be aware of every single little thing going on in America let alone the world? I admitted that I have never paid much attention to the ADL and I cracked a joke as to why.
  
  And where did I react emotionally exactly? I have emotions as I am only a human, but I don’t see this emotional reaction you speak of.
  
  Also let’s not pretend like you were ever even listening to my opinion or considering it’s validity. You stalked my page and commented on a few comments I left and then you left a few factually incorrect memes scattered around. You made up your mind about me and all my political stances the moment you assumed I was a Nazi.
  
  Have a good night.
