All I'm going to say is, "infantile morons", is not a good faith way to have a discourse. I've seen comments like this deleted before, but I guess if it's a popular enough opinion though, then the staff at the Bulwark think this kind of language is fine.
It may still get deleted. The Bulwark staff figure that paying money to post comments promotes self-moderation. They come across comments; they do not monitor them. Anyone is always free to report a comment. All you have to do is click on the three dots.
I agree with Peter T. Can we cut back on the ad hominem attacks. They don't help your arguments (which I generally agree with) and just create an atmosphere of unpleasant partisanship.
Some people are irritating and unpersuadable, but others who aren't can be turned off by what are unnecessary personal attacks.
I happen to agree with you like 80% of the time, including the sentiment here. But...you do tend to yell and scream a lot. If this were Breitbart, I'd get it. But it ain't. It'd be nice if we could keep our swell little Bulwark community civil.
Yeah, OK, intervention over. Mind my own business, yada yada.
that was an exhaustingly roundabout way to call Tom a moron...
please take it down a notch. Or just take it down.

TCinLA... then why are you here? Why engage with any of us? I'm genuinely asking...
