So D\_Anconia is again doing his best to derail another thread P&E thread by asking stupid questions that have obvious answers in hopes that he will bait people into arguing with him. The OP speculates about why all of the people who engage him in political discussions at work are older conservative white men. To which D\_Anconia, responds: > [@Why are all my customers who bring up politics from the same demographic group?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-are-all-my-customers-who-bring-up-politics-from-the-same-demographic-group/962492/5): > > How do you know they are conservative? Because they were discussing with him their political views you dumbass! That is the entire point of the thread! When called on it he begins the nitpicking phase of his trolling: > [@Why are all my customers who bring up politics from the same demographic group?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-are-all-my-customers-who-bring-up-politics-from-the-same-demographic-group/962492/7): > > People who disagree with Democratic politics is not the same thing as “conservative”.

You need to see it from D’Asshole’s point of view. In his world, all Democratic policies are so totally insane – things like progressive income taxes, accessible health care, racial justice – that everyone of all political persuasions should naturally hate them with the passion of a thousand suns, particularly all rich white patriotic Christian Americans whose very existence is under assault by socialists, atheists, and darkies. ---

Yeah, that’s a pattern. In ATMB, I pointed out several ways his arguments are wrong, and he refuses to actually give any counterarguments. It’s frustrating as hell dealing with those who engage in this manner. It’s even worse when they try to justify why they don’t have to give counterarguments. Or why it’s okay they changed the subject to an argument they think they can win.
