Rand Paul Rages In Epic Festivus Tweetstorm

[acptulsa]

Look who pops up to defend our number one advocate of interventionism.

I thought you were the one who was supposedly so concerned about Bolton trolls.

I'm not likely to listen to one of them when he says, "There's one over there!"

Sure, I work for Bolton.
That is why I oppose all of his primary goals, he pays me to call for an end to wars and foreign aid for Israel.

Bolton doesn't care what camouflage you use. He just wants the population divided along partisan lines. So divided people are scared to talk to people for fear they're demons out for blood.

"Maybe if I can convince Rand's base that interventionism is libertarian he will flip flop and support me"

War is peace.

Sure.

Now please explain why you decided to defend our number one cheerleader for foreign intervention and why you don't follow him around the forum and harass him.

You are either an active Demoncrat or a former Demoncrat who is in denial about the absolute decay of your preferred party.
My views are no different than many other members of the forum but you have made me your number one target for your well known divide, ban and conquer activities because I was new to this forum and I dared to fight back when you tried to drive me away for daring to express views that you didn't like.

I don't follow anyone around and harass them. I do react to obnoxious behavior when and where I see it. If you think I'm following you around and harassing you, you clearly spread obnoxious behavior around.

As for his politics, it's natural for people like you to try to demonize anyone who speaks civilly with him on occasion, and refuses to disagree with him when he's not wrong. Both of you are statists and do indeed have something of a taste for tyranny. You just prefer different flavors.

I'll tell you something else you don't want to know. He's much less of a collectivist, and more of an individualist, than you are.

The only other person to accuse me of trying to get people banned all the time was a progressive troll that came in here claiming to have a bizarre batch of medical problems and whatnot. I caught that person in an obvious lie and pointed it out, but never once reported the account. You seem to have quite a lot in common with that program, including paranoia, a belief this forum is here to serve as a platform for your propaganda, a tendency to place partisanship above reason, and a serious victim complex.

Hate to burst your bubble, but I've seen lots and lots and lots of people here with views a lot like yours. The only ones I take issue with are the ones who try to drive people away who disagree with them by labeling them things like "Demoncrat or former Demoncrat" and arguing with them long after both sides have made their points like an angry child.

Stop with the &*#!ing name calling NOW.

What are your thoughts on your buddy zippy defending the position that we need to stay in Syria??

[Ender]

My thoughts are that zippy can think anything he likes; he shows opposing views but he NEVER insults or calls people names.

So calling somebody John Bolton is extremely insulting and offensive, in your view, but holding John Bolton's views and posting them on the forum makes that poster perfectly acceptable to you?

[devil21]

Wow, I must say that Rand's mastery of triggering Warren followers is quite epic, if the response to that tweet is any indicator.

Makes me wonder how many Dems are closely following Rand's twitter, to elicit that amount of tweet hate back at him.

Ahhh...interpreting thoughts is not your strong suit.

But calling names, insulting, & taking the focus off the OP is OK.

Gottcha.

A LOT of them, recall he has been one of Trumps biggest public backers, even when he is fighting to stop Trump policies. ALL of his tweets get that type of hate back on him, no matter the subject.

I'll call R3v an interventionist all I want, he openly advocates for it.

You need to stop defending the indefensible.
