Well Chula also has a moral compass
You are not like Ant and Chula in the sense that you're a mainstream party hack. You are like them in the sense that you're mindlessly beholden to a political ideology that you have chosen. You are however likely beholden to your ideology probably because you're young and dumb and like to think you're a revolutionary of some sort or other. And you suck at debate.

What does that have to do with you using age to discredit others?

Until you carry on one worthwhile debate in-forum then I'm going to be dubious. I understand that political debate online is tedious, but you can't expect to be taken seriously when all your posts are lazy one-liners. How do you think I'm where I am?

Or they are left-leaning people who prefer Starbucks and convenience over a change in the economic status quo.
