I haven't accused you of fitting the label bud, you've taken thay upon yourself. The point is still that a particular type of political identity tends to intentionally single out the "bad" billionaires as the problem, while intentionally disregarding the systemic reasons for the existence of those billionaires.

If we don't agree on what the underlying problem is (let alone agree on what needs to be done about it), then we are absolutely not in alignment. To the extent that we agree on anything, we would still fundamentally disagree on which of those things democrats need to address to win an election.

Crying about leftists making that distinction doesnt do anything to disabuse them of the notion that you're a bad faith shitlib (notice the third person there) trying to dissuade them of their convictions in favor of what you personally consider "reasonable"

You kind of confirmed everything harder than my wildest dreams could've imagined. Also we're only talking right now because you decried "libs" which you're applying to a fuckton of people whose views you don't know or understand. Thanks for the validation.
