Opinion of Adam C. FitzGerald

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Someone who's both anti-marijuana based on essentially flat out false foundations and treats gun control as some sort of litmus test issue that no Democrat can be given any slack on regardless of state (and this is from someone who basically hates all of the pro-gun lobby and activists) is most certainly not my type of Democrat.

Agreeing with Adam C. even once is dangerous. It's no excuse that a few of the "cool" politicians might stand by his assertions, because you'll get an addictive contrarian sort of feeling that will make you agree with him more and more often. But eventually that's not enough and you'll begin agreeing with even harder headed people and their philosophies. One nod of the head is all it takes to start down a path that inevitably leads to becoming broken and disheveled in an alleyway begging strangers for cash. Does that sounds "cool" to you?

I appreciate his enthusiasm, but from what I've seen, his posts are unnecessarily long and are often restating the obvious.

The true leftism is annoying.

Greatly improved from when he first started posting, so perhaps he will become an actual good poster eventually with more time and maturity.

Y'know, I almost appreciate his anti-weed posts.  Their facts and logic are obviously objectively terrible, but it's good to have some diversity of opinion in here just to keep us honest and remind us of the ways in which the real world does not mirror this bubble.  Also, it takes some courage to swim against the stream, I guess, even when the stream is going in the right direction.

Still not enough to get me to vote FF, but food for thought.

The true leftism is annoying.

I suspect you're operating with a different definition of "true leftist" than I do.  He strikes me as more of a Dem establishment hack, which is at least superficially a very different beast.

[PiMp DaDdy FitzGerald]

One of the few Democrats who are still reliably liberal instead of libertarian/conservative on social issues. FF

Like how he wouldn't vote for candidates like Heitkamp or Landrieu. That's how I'm defining it.

[morgieb]

Not a big fan, though is better than what he was.

His reasons are different, though. He's not voting for Heitkamp because "muh gun control" (I'd assume), and he's not voting Landrieu I guess because of the environment? True leftists are generally pro-gun.

As I said, Adam FitzGerald is the epitome of a True Democrat. Take that however you want to.

Let's just say he's young.

FF!
I don't understand the backlash with him.

What Miles and Mr. Follo said. Good guy, hopefully gets better with time.

[IceSpear]

FF for being brave enough to disrupt the echo chamber. His anti-marijuana arguments are also hilariously bad and amuse me.

[Torie]

Weed destroys your brain guys. I mean - look at me! 

[badgate]

I didn't know he was anti-pot, but otherwise FF.

[Horus]

Nothing but the weaker MSNBC talking points repeated through the mouth of a 14-year old. Dreadful.

This is accurate.

[TDAS04]

FF, even if he's wrong on marijuana and some other things.

[ElectionsGuy]

HP as a poster. Really needs to get beyond being an Obama-robot and writing long post about D-talking points. But I think I'm being too harsh, oh well, hopefully over time he'll be a better poster.

[Maxwell]

Not improved enough for an FF rating, but far improved from when he was a Pro-Life Brony Democrat.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

As I have said in the past, his posts are very emotional, and often are filled with MSNBC talking points about how the Democrats will win and how the Republicans still elections and so on... I think Miles said it best, so far. He doesn’t contribute much for the amount he posts in the midterm election boards.
