Has there ever been a Lib who wandered in here and made actually good arguments or at least tried to actually back up their claims? (hexbear.net)

I feel like I've actually encountered some Libs IRL and in other online spaces who at least sounded more intelligent. Every one that wanders in here just insists that their right, cites Wikipedia, and tries to troll people like a 14 year old who stole their moms laptop.

You think we'd occasionally get a somewhat more articulate one there but I've yet yo see it.

I specifically remember a liberal that posted here having kind of a decent response to an argument I made. I don't even remember what the topic was, but I specifically remember being annoyed by it and feeling a bit b*tched out when a fellow hexbear swooped in to basically cover my ass (but also continue to back me up if I ever show the slightest weakness please).

Broadly though, the liberals that come here are all needlessly butt-hurt people that got super obsessively mad over some shit they saw posted, and essentially come to us pre-cooked in their desperation to "get even" emotionally.

I tend to assume most of the smart liberals are self-assured enough to not really care enough about us to post here.
