The left's debate style

The debate style of the left is pretty consistent.

Rational Adult: "Let's discuss topic A."
Leftist: "You're wrong."
RA: "How am I wrong? Let's review these valid facts pertaining to topic A."
L: "You're wrong."
RA: "Let's review this second set of valid facts pertaining to topic A, and please explain why I'm wrong."
L: "You're a fascist."

You have to give the leftist credit for at least being consistent. Ignore the facts, stick to your emotion based viewpoint, and then dehumanize your opponent.
A classic strategy used skillfully by certain groups in history called…oh you know and so does the leftist who deliberately dehumanizes his opponents with the label they see every time they look in a mirror.

Well, the Left can't deal with reality because in reality they are the bad guys. They are constantly trying to live off the work of others thus they have to control their "livestock" by force. Since reason tells us that such behavior is morally intolerable they are left with emotional whining as their means of justifying their actions and allowing themselves to feel good about it. Any refusal to accept the emotional bullshit and obey the self-appointed masters is automatically translated on the emotional level as something to the effect of "die motherfucker!"

That's my theory, anyway.
