Noooo but muh purity test! We need to take what we can get! The DNC should have banned Mamdani from running so that Kamala could run in New York instead and if you think that's a bad idea that's just because you let your delusional perfect fantasies be the enemy of ~~the good~~ , well, ~~the okay~~ , er... the...

it’s not a “purity test”.
i wish she wouldn’t have been cheated when she won the presidency, but she’s a terrible person and terrible representative.
Dick Cheney led us into a multi-year war in Iraq based entirely on lies and made millions of dollars from it… he’s responsible for thousands of murders, ruining millions of lives, and damaging billions of lives.
“muh purity test” it’s not… it’s the “don’t praise war criminals” test
…. or maybe YOU have the WMD’s in your backyard?

Yeah rereading my comment, I see what's confusing about it - I'm condemning the people who condemn purity tests. I support the purity tests (aka having standards for our representatives).

lemmy pretty much requires '/s' for some reason.

/s ?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

So . . it doesn’t?

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

erm... /s

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Ohhhhh. Gotcha.

. . . /s? Wait. No. s.

Aiigh!.

here i go preaching to the choir again.
my bad, i missed the sarcasm….
purity testing is definitely a tactic of misinformation, but obviously Harris is dirty af….

Do the downvoters not pick up on the very obvious sarcasm here?

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Poe's Law is thing.

Took me reading it a few times before I was confident it was sarcasm.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Or they're cheney-supporting centrists who did pick up on the sarcasm.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago

There's twelve of them?! (at time of commenting) Holy shit! That's too many!
