I like how you pointed out that they were told exactly what would happen if they didn't vote or voted 3rd party, and that was the opposite of what they claim they wanted, then you point out that that's exactly what happened, as they were told it would, and yet people are still downvoting you.
Lot of dummies out there. Guess Lemmy isn't an exception.
Right they don't like it because I'm not being cordial about it all, but people are dying because of this.
There are so many examples. All the people who just died in that Texas flood could have had a chance if Trump didn't fire a ton of people from the national weather service. There's literally a vacancy for someone who would have been able to spread the warnings that came out overnight prior to the flood.
Sorry if it hurts feelings. But someone has to hold these people's feet to the fire. Them acting like they're better than maga voters when they helped Donald Trump into the office is ridiculous.
Every time I have this discussion the people that I'm arguing with believe that I am a regular Democrat or a liberal or something. It's always funny cuz they think they're arguing against somebody who ideologically believes differently from them. But I don't, I have the same beliefs as them.
It doesn't even matter if I tell them Palestinian American politicians we're voting for Kamala.
They still tell me I'm wrong. The ego can't face the fact that maybe they did something wrong. I know this because I voted 3rd party in 2016 over the Bernie scandal during the primary. I was them. I did this before and this time it's so much worse.
