That was a low effort response to a well written detailed post that took quite a while to write. At least deal with some of the issues raised, don't just ignore everything they said and dismiss them as willfully ignorant.

It was because I thought the author both understood and even agreed with my point in principle but then did intricate mental gymnastics to disagree with my point and let everyone off the hook including the person that I was disagreeing with.

I don’t want to continue talking in circles with Centrists telling me that the piss pouring on my head is in fact charitable rain drops from the benevolent libs.
