>leftists disregarding your opinion because you aren't

Ad hominem has been a thing for a long time, not just in the last 5 years.

Most people are pretty crap at philosophy.

The left has quite a lot of vocal white dudes that seem to have no trouble voicing their opinions? At least nobody reasonable tries to disprove them because of their race/gender. Also rightists are not only Pepes, even if Internet is making you think otherwise.

True. Maybe I've just become more aware of it lately.

Seems like the vocal minority of leftists clings on to the white male bit, though. Same with the alt right and pepe.

Again, just a casual observation.

>leftists disregarding your opinion because you aren't gay/black/whatever enough

you're talkin bout left-libs there bucko.

>>36168376
You need to stop looking at the bottom rung of political discourse and look at what educated people have to say on these topics

There are good arguments for both left and right politics but I assure you, it isn't coming from those people you talk about

Depens what is the topic of the discussion, I guess. I admit people can be too quick to dismiss a person based on that. As >>36168627 pointed out, it's just a subset of the left. Some care more about class issues, for example
