You said the Democrats have no principles, in terms of how they campaign. I said, more or less, that that's true. But also, in terms of Biden specifically, he actually does seem to have a lot of principles in terms of what he did in office. With Gaza as one glaring and war-criminal exception.
I have no idea where you got this idea that I look at "more stuff" and "less stuff" as the two options or why you talked down to me so extensively about the idea that that's how I look at it. Clearly, hopefully, we both want more good stuff and less bad stuff, and it's just a matter of talking about what stuff was good and what stuff was bad.
I think it's interesting but maybe not surprising that you totally ignored my pretty detailed arguments about income and climate policy, and just kept talking to me as if I hadn't made them. Feel free to read them, they're pretty interesting, whether or not you feel like addressing them on any level with me specifically.
