Of course not. Spencer is a terrible example to use.


So, why is Spencer a bad person because you disagree with him. But people I disagree with aren't?

Why is Richard Spencer a bad person? Is it because he has the nerve to disagree with you?

He wants to commit genocide.

She leads 49.3-48.4 with 99.3% reported. Not for certain, but my guess is McSally holds it.

Surprising that she is losing Maricopa county, yet still winning. She is trailing in it by less than a point but still.

The game is that Telconi's going to keep asking if you disagree with him, then when you say that you do he'll start jumping up and down going "See! See! You think he's bad because he disagrees with you!" and somehow this will prove something.

Unfortunately a lot of what he did was technically legal.
