    and what happened? oh yeah actual leftist rabble roused and protested the Iraq war, whereas centrist Dems were lockstep with Republicans to invade over lies.

    Great example, it really shows how little Dems have cared about leftists for decades.

      Aaaaand…how did that protest go for ya? Did it work? Did anything change?

      No?

      Imagine that.

      Great example. It really shows how little the far left understands nuance and common sense.

        I guess you are right. Maybe I should be in favor of war and genocide then because it’s always working. Thank you kind stranger, I will stop protesting now.

          So… knowing that some protests in the past have been pointless is the key to supporting genocide now?

          You seem to like going WAY out of your way to maintain ignorance, don’t you? Instead of accepting that your point was dismissed, you opted to throw a hissy fit and cut off your own nose in a bad faith attempt to make another point.

          Incredibly childish.

        History is filled with examples of the righteous being defeated by the wicked.

        Christ, being such an example

          As I recall…. Things didn’t work out well for Christ. Pretty sure the end score was:

          Wicked: 1

          Christ: 0

                Christianity actually changed some things in world history. Like more than a few.

                So a temporary loss by the righteous can eventually lead to a permanent victory. Which was very clearly my point. And is the point of the Bible - and is also the point of the religious history of the West

                  So… your argument is to compare your incessant whining and selfish refusal to do what is necessarily to protect the lives and rights of others to…… checks notes

                  ……Christians?

                  Yeah. That tracks. You can have that argument. That definitely sums up both camps pretty well.
