Comment on Independent MP to push for lowering of Australian voting age
Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 week agoI just don’t see why any of this is relevant here. Someone can be wrong in one area and right in another. They can even be wrong in most areas and right in this one area. You are the one bringing “culture war bullshit” to “distract us” from the conversation at hand here. Discuss the question on its merits, or don’t discuss it at all, IMO. Don’t distract by attacking the person who happens to be the messenger in this specific case.

This is fair. And I’m sorry for how I responded because of my strong dislike for her.
I should have just left the reminder that she’s anti-worker as an off-topic aside.
The rest of it, as you rightly point out, is not my best work.

Yeah for sure. If it had been presented as an aside, like “btw don’t let her support of this good idea distract from all the other bad stuff she’s done”, I think there would have been significantly less pushback.
