The grandparent poster suggested that your comment indicates a degree of political bias. You tried to pivot to a definitional argument about whether something was offensive or not.

If your mode of argument depends on putting words in other people's mouths, you're not a very effective debater.

Cup made a subtle statement about a certain political persuasion, and I asked if that political persuasion was offensive.

Not sure if I understand your issue with my response which tried to get at the root of his statement.

Attempting to analyse others' motivations is, I've found, a fruitless exercise given the epistemological barriers involved.
