Your questions makes no sense... I never denied anything I said. I was in a conversations responding to Areyoushitingme whom was responding to Tileman. What is unclear about that for you?
The whole thing was initiated as commentary & a wash by Tileman on an entire political side. I was actually making a pretty clear point by using a descriptor (republitards) to differentiate from conservatives a group mindset that responds in a rather limited & rather thugish framework. I shorthand it by stating 'Republitards' as a descriptor.
What about this can you not grasp?

Your words state "almost a majority," that is hardly specific.

Nope it is not. No less than the descriptor by Tileman that stated the same thing about (All Liberals.) But i did not state all Conservatives. I stated a solid group through a descriptor of people whom post on this specific forum from a rather long term observation & experience that is rather obvious.

Also, I'm not convinced that calling others "republitards" is actually conducive to reasoned debate.
YMMV

Personally I am not trying to convince 'you' of anything. It a a descriptor that works for me & is a shorthand for an observation that I have experienced.
I never state this as a general concept to people I disagree with of an apposing political spectrum There are more than a few whom are of a different political spectrum than I, that I have great respect for. Dom1, Nathan, Rob to name a few. You can ask them & they would verify I have never called them a name or got overly emotional in that context quite simply because they have reasoned discourse & do not devolve into patisan, emotional reactive banality simply because we may disagree.
This is the clear drop in the 'Tileman/your framing', argument.
It shows a very short range observational framework.
A simply case in point of of this 'overly emotional responding would be,
Timmy, Democant & Pink Bunny, to name just a few. I simply match & mirror them for the sheer humor & satire (for myself ) to do so.
