As if it's somehow impossible to make a long comment in support of a single argument? As if Gish galloping comments don't actually exist? Do I follow your logic properly? What part about this do I not understand?

Accusations of gish gallop are almost always just a bad faith way of dismissing an argument without bothering to address it.

What argument? 20+ arguments were made. Which one am I meant to address?

If I focus on one you'll jump on me for not addressing the 19 others, which is why it's a bullshit tactic.

Their argument was that so called Western socialists are mostly just Western chauvinists who make their determination on what movements are "real socialists" based on how closely they align, racially and culturally, to the West.

There, that's their argument.
