      But I’m not calling them dumb. I’m calling them liberal. Which by the very nature of the two ideologies means they’re not going to be inclined to believe a leftist’s viewpoint. And Radical Planning (the YouTuber) is most definitely a leftist, espousing leftist viewpoints.

      The only person who could interpret me as calling them “dumb” is someone that presupposes it is automatically an accusation of stupidity to say you oppose leftism. Which is, in itself, a way of saying “all liberals are dumb”.

          Are you being deliberately obtuse? The use of the word “even” here is, in the context of people who are assumed to be leftists, to suggest that the content of this video stretches out beyond just its intended audience, and even reaches (or at least, I am claiming it could reach) people outside the primary audience. Namely, liberals.
