B-Y-E.
There was nothing personal about it. I don't f*ck with personal attacks. There's no need for them. I've never met you and I don't know you so for me to attack you as a person would be pointless and unfair of me. I'm sure you're a lovely person.
However, you were speaking in broad oversimplifications. You made statements and arguments which reduced the various inter-related, complicated sources of poverty to "people just need to work harder." That IS ignorant of the subject, and uneducated as well as inaccurate. Especially when countless studies have disproved this notion that the poor simply need to work harder and class mobility will be easily attained.
You can make ignorant, uneducated, inaccurate arguments without necessarily being ignorant or uneducated yourself.
What I can do is challenge and attack the points you're making when you post them on a public forum such as this one. My comments are focused solely on your arguments and the points you were making which were ignorant.
That's not making it personal. That's pointing out ill informed, and gross oversimplifications when I see them, which you've been quick to do when some of the Trumpettes come barging into this thread with broad inaccurate statements about Hillary. That's not personal. That's highlighting the hypocrisy of your argument.
Just because you can't handle when someone is issuing valid challenges against your arguments, don't try to deflect them as personal attacks and invalidate them.
