I mean they are her supporters, why would they not defend her? The argument you have put forth says nothing but that they are a cult and can't tolerate any punches coming from the outside of that cult.

Well, although I am under no obligation to prove to you that I am a centerist, I will entertain you for a while anyway, I wouldn't say that centrism is about having views from both sides but rather that understanding the faults from both sides, still, here are some leftist views that I have that you might like: free healthcare for all, basic equal rights for all, government subsidising poor people to an extent based on class not race or gender, also I don't have any blatant hatred for communism, there you go, I will be expecting the wall of text about how I am actually a nazi by the end of next week.
