First, a corrected version of your comment. Note the tweaks I've made in bold. If you're going to come around intending to attack me, I'd prefer your insults were written in Standard English (which reactionary right-wingers tend to prefer).

"You are obviously a left-leaning blogger. Look at your side and the tactics you use. Why do you insist on making something grander than it is? It only shows you're no more than a child wanting to be heard."

Now for my response. Yes, I am a leftist. That's not an insult. I am aware of my own tactics, and I do observe what others on my side do. I am not making something "grander" than it is (¿No habrás querido decir "bigger"? Más grande no se dice "grander", por si no lo sabías). And I am by no stretch of the imagination "a child wanting to be heard." That seems a bit more appropriate a label for someone jumping into the comment section to insult the writer.
