It's not mental gymnastics and it's not about disliking the opinion, it's legitimately not unpopular. Dunking on furries has been popular on the internet since at least 2005, it is extremely mainstream and probably the gateway for young people to the more toxic parts of the internet since blatant bigotry is more likely to be removed.

You have a very small mind if you think all disagreement is "I don't like it"

Keep missing the point to play victim, those yuppies are probably right about you.

because if you vote for actually progressive policy, rather than talk about it and vote against it, you’re a bad person.

no, you're just an asshole for acting like an asshole; none of the dumb bullshit you've brought up is relevant. You Are Missing The Point, you were told straight up that they are inclined to agree with you, stop arguing with people in your head.

Now please write another paragraph about how what I said relates to some personal burden of yours again.

maybe don't let the yuppies live rent free in your head if you know their daddies can afford rent

Sorry about your daddy issues but you can't use that excuse for the rest of your life.

You are also missing the point

Even if you guys are right, and im inclined to agree with you, you both sound like smug assholes

You can say things without being an asshole, but

you know also what makes someone a smug asshole? budgeting, eating right, exercising, and all the stuff we all know that are good for us

is just being an asshole for no reason. Nobody said or implied any of those thing, they're just tilting at windmills because they want to talk shit and don't like being told they're talking shit.

They didn't even initially mention privilege, just "young people," so being told to tone down the hate is warranted.

I think it has much more to do with having an atmosphere that is almost entirely a greenhouse gas, and having so much of it the surface pressure is 92 times higher than Earth's. Mercury is even closer than Venus but not as hot because it doesn't have a thick atmosphere to hold the energy.

They are completely wrong because they're saying it's insane that caffeine and nicotine are legal, they blew right past the reasonable nuance.

Caffeine is just literally an addictive stimulant and nobody talks about how insane it is that it and nicotine are just legal for some reason

Because they're largely harmless. Being a stimulant isn't bad, there's nothing insane about that.
