As for anti-Constitutionalists, well, perhaps you should chime in on that since you proffered that miasma of thought there. And lets have a discussion on the scope of anti-Constitutionalism from the left and right.

And back to the first point, lets have a solid discussion on the scope and effect of 'McCarthyist activity' from the left and the right, and let's decide which one has more activity, and which one is far more prevalent and effective.

Which shitbird firing of a professor do you want me to start out with?

Did you happen to read the Twitter thread?

I did. He revels on mentioning the anti-Constitution aspect, but fails to mention any iota in its backing. I would have assumed that you would have noted that issue between a broad claim and failing to denote any support for it.

Thus I called on you for your insight, since you were so ready and on-the-ball about noting the piece and its relevance

I am sorry that Tom has been attacked thusly by Trumpists. All in all, I find the tweet of one singular and very explicit anti-Trumper that the 'Trump camp is far worse in their attacks in a McCarthy-esque' manner somewhat unpersuasive.

The record is replete with a literal **** ton of proto-brownshirt leftists on their seek and destroy missions based on political expression. I dont find that same record from the Trumpists replete to that level either in scope or ferocity.

I mean, you are the king of 'objective facts' and that difference noted above should have been obvious to you, even in light of the sheer wildness and wackiness that you would post the lesson of 'proof by Twitter example' that it seemingly is calling for.

If one guy is all you need to prove a movement, I am sure we can find one who think the country is being run by aliens out of Area 51.

Actually, I already know him. A client. I always make sure that retainer is always full, mind you.
