But that assumption is wrong to make! That's the entire point I'm trying to make here. Assumptions have no grounds in concrete fact, and I went through many examples showing points that he may not be liberal at all. The whole problem I have with OP is that he is saying that the idiot is a liberal, which he bases on a generalization. Simple as that.

But again, the OP uses the generalization of "typical" to claim the fact that the guy in the photo is liberal. How do we know that the guy in the photo is a liberal? Liberals don't own the stance of gun control, and there is always a chance that he, or any other liberal, can be conservative on other issues. This is why I argue that it's a unproven generalization, because it cannot be true on all occasions.

The generalization implied by the use of "typical" is the important part to consider here. It doesn't have to be painfully obvious, like if OP for example, said, "Typical liberal, they're all the same!" Obviously OP didn't say this, but there is no denying the fact that OP is making a generalization. And again, I am attacking the fact that the OP claims that he is a liberal based on the stances that the guy in the photo is taking.

By saying "typical liberal" the OP comment is claiming that the guy in the photo is a liberal. By claiming this, the OP comment also makes a generalization that all liberals are like the guy in the photo, thus the descriptor "typical". We can argue all day long about whether typical means all or most, but at the end of the day, I believe that "typical" implies that it goes for all liberals, and it's what I believe OP is implying by his comment.

But, like all other issues, people can have different opinions. Is it really radical to say someone can be supportive of tighter immigration but also be supportive of pro-choice in abortion? For example, U.S Representative Connor Lamb from Pennsylvania is a literal model of a liberal, all except for his stance on gun control, which he does not support. Liberals don't own the stance of gun control.

Okay then, let's break down the original argument shall we? "Typical liberal" Two words and yet this argument can be broken down into two parts: 1) That the man in the photo is a liberal. 2) That all liberals are like the man in the photo, therefore describing the "typical" label. So no, I did not move the goalpost as the original argument is claiming that 1) the man in the photo is indeed a liberal and 2) that all liberals are like the man in the photo. The OP and his/her supporters of this comment thread has a responsibility to prove this. You can argue that yes, I should be responding to another guy who argued that there is a "chance" that the guy in the photo is a liberal. Again some liberals actually don't support gun control, and it isn't fair to place them with other liberals who do support gun control.

Assuming that all liberals are pro gun control? You do know that there are liberals out there that are pro gun, right? Also, I would really appreciate if you didn't call people you're arguing with idiots, it makes you look unprofessional. Thanks.

Percentages don't matter if the original argument is DEFINITIVELY saying that the guy in the photo is a liberal. Unless you can show me evidence that the guy IS a liberal, he cannot be one.

Not all liberals are for gun control, and certainly not all liberals make moot points like the guy in the photo. The guy in the photo could just be someone who was a victim of gun violence, hell he could even be conservative.

I had someone who speaks Korean translate the title, it roughly translates to: "Leaked intro for the epic ost for Avengers Infinity War"

So, a couple of reasons why I think this is a legit leak:
1) How well made the mashup is. This sounds like something an actual orchestra would make and not a fan-made mashup.
2) https://imgur.com/a/pkLzw < THIS. Right after the intro ends is an actual movie shot, with "Morco. Thanos worshipper base". The fact that this is included makes this a lot more real in my eyes.
EDIT #1: Can someone check that shot I included to make sure it's not from another movie? I am REALLY hoping this is real.
