    “There has been an uptick in violent leftist extremism.”

    I literally read that somewhere, I even kept the word “uptick”. Do you want me to go find the article that literally says “recently, there has been an uptick in violent leftist extremism.” Because I bet i could even find that phrase at least a couple times. But please… trying to have will power to educate yourself

      So you’re just parroting some crap you read somewhere? And we’re supposed to just know that because you used a fancy word like “uptick”?

      It’s pretty clear you’re the moron here. Perhaps you should try to educate yourself? You can start with actually reading the articles you claim as a source.

        Dude, you’re funny. You just want to argue and get upset at something. At first, you were like:

        Didn’t see that being attributed to some news source, or quoted, or anything like that. That was something you most definitely claimed.

        Then you just said:

        So you’re just parroting some crap you read somewhere? And we’re supposed to just know that because you used a fancy word like “uptick”?

        Lol, you were all like “oh you just made that up!” Then next breath “you just copied that fancy word!” Hahahaha which one makes you madder brother?

        Quit making terrible assumptions, and insulting is one of the lowest forms of argument and only reveals your own shortcomings.

        It’s pretty clear you’re the moron here.

        You’ve got 3 fingers pointed back at you.

          Well, lets summarize.

          First you made a wild claim. Then you got called out on that.

          So you trotted out your sources. Then you got called out for completely misrepresenting what those sources said.

          So then you’re like “nuh-uh, I actually never said that”. Then you got called out because yes you really did say exactly that.

          Then you’re like “No I really didn’t say that, I was just quoting…err can’t you tell?” Or something like that. And I was like LOL.

          And now… well I actually can’t tell what you’re trying to say or what point you’re even trying to make anymore, if you even have one.

          Have a nice day.
