    Most people are so into the team sports that anything critical of team blue is treated like a religious heresy.

      There’s a large subcategory of leftists who refuse to say whether Trump or Biden would be a better president. If you feel you aren’t treated with sufficient charitability, you should put the blame squarely on their shoulders.

        I don’t really care about people I don’t like treating me charitably, I want democrats to stop being absolute dogshit and I don’t see how rewarding them with a vote does that.

          Hey guy, I’m not worried. If you had some common sense, you might be worried though. “Treating me charitably”? Have you read the news at all? The shit going on right now is precursor to throwing people in concentration camps type shit.

          So guy, unless you’re a white conservative male, you might not be too keen on Trump winning.

            1 not a guy

            2 learn how to read, the context “treating me charitably” was me quoting the person I was responding to, who said he was “treating me charitably” as in he was allegedly listening to what I was saying.

            3 I don’t respond to threats, and if you’re threatening me that if I don’t vote for the genocide guy that all nonwhites are getting their rights taken away. That doesn’t distinguish you from them, nor provide me a reason to view your party as a credible opposition.

                  Apparently the lemmy.world mods won’t remove people for being transphobic and deliberately misgendering people, but they remove comments for “misinformation” if we point out that Democrats are supporting a genocide, which they factually are by sending arms to a genocidal ethnostate.

              Your views on this are incredibly unappealing and flawed at a base level. It’s clear you’re thinking with your heart instead of your brain. I commend your stance and want to make the world better but you’re moreso trying to spite a guy you don’t approve of and the most likely outcome of acting on this spite is a harsher genocide in Palestine.

              You already know this, of course.

                I don’t respond to people threatening me with ‘how much worse’ the other guy is, your guy is the one trying to pass the republican border bill, and has made it extremely clear that they’re giving Israel a blank check.

                I don’t care about American lives more than I care about Palestinian lives. I don’t approve of genocide, and I’m not voting for people who are enabling one.

                  “Don’t get in those train cars, they go to a gas chamber. Nazis just enacted the final solution.”

                  “Uh ek-SQUEEZE me? Sounds like you’re trying to threaten me, sweaty. And the Nazis are no worse than the SPD.”

                    I don’t view the Democrats as a credible opposition to rising christofascism, particularly when they’re completely unreachable on the genocide they’re participating in.
