In leftist spaces, right-leaning ideas are challenged. In right-leaning spaces, leftists are banned and leftist ideas are censored. Why are conservatives opposed to the free marketplace of ideas?

Serious question.

for the most part, leftists attack the ideas, not the person.

It was argumentative and possibly toxic but boiled down to calling them “slow”

Lol

What’s funny? Got anything to share? I don’t lie.

You should try contributing to the conversation instead of showing your lack of understanding.

This is my biggest issue with conservatism: there’s no pragmatics, only ad hominem attacks and overconfidence. Wouldn’t you rather be correct?

What’s funny?

Your stunning lack of self awareness. You posted a paragraph shitting on the other side for ad hominem attacks then immediately followed it with a paragraph bitching that they banned you for an ad hominem attack. That’s funny.

showing your lack of understanding

I understand what you said, that’s why I laughed at you

only ad hominem attacks

Right, like the one that got you banned from reddit

Wouldn’t you rather be correct?

My opinion is that both conservatives and liberals are insufferable twats without an original thought in their collective heads who vehemently defend their off-the-shelf prepackaged beliefs with snark and insults and zero substance while denigrating the other side for doing the exact same thing. I am correct.

“Slow” is a speed at which some people are. “Conservatism” by its very name is a bit of a call to “slow down”. Sorry if the truth hurts. I’m also slow in a lot of respects. Might be a little ad hominem, but it’s no where near the level of ad hominem attacks you’re making, I’ll give you that.

Slow to progress, not slow in the head.
