Not OP, but I live in a strongly Democratic state/district, so I know I can vote my conscience. If NYC doesn’t go blue, we have bigger problems than who I voted for. (I’ll probably write in Chuck Tingle, honestly.)
Does voting third party change anything right now? No. So you vote for the least evil option because that’s the best hope you have at present. Would I love for there to be a viable socialist candidate? Sure. Would I vote for one if that option made it more likely for Trump to get elected? Absolutely not.
How many libtards were taking pop shots at congressmen? How many blew up congress with a bomb… Oh did you forget about that or did the talking head not tell you.
Cited like a true libtard from a hard left newspaper. Do some research genius. When you have a left wing nut job the story gets dropped from the news rather quickly. Maybe because it makes their side look like assholes.
When did the Washington Post become “hard left?” I missed that one. Especially when it’s owned by an ultra-capitalist. Or are you going to claim Jeff Bezos is a socialist?
Are you really trying to say Bezos isn’t another lefty? Scroll down prime video and all the woke bullshit they stream now. If you’re that far off of reality I’m not wasting my time.
Oh honey….It’s cute that you think a newspaper owned by Jeff Bezos is hard left. Read Jacobin sometime, your head might explode. It’s funny when I remember that the “hard left” the right thinks they’re battling are milquetoast liberals who think maybe we shouldn’t actively harm historically marginalized groups anymore. I bet you think Joe Biden’s a commie, too, don’t you? Bless your heart…You’ve probably never even met a real leftist.
And this is why everyone ignores you people and your over-dramatic use of terms like ‘hate group’
Terms like ‘hate group’ ‘fascist’ ‘Nazi’ are not hyperbolic terms, they are very specific terms with very specific meanings. They are not to be used the way you’re using them.
I understand that liberals feel like definitions of words should be ‘fluid’ and depending on ‘how you feel’ the word should mean when you use it, but that’s just not how communication works.
You don’t know what a hate group even is, obviously.
You can call anything a hate group if you want, but if it’s not an actual hate group, it just makes you look like you don’t know what you’re talking about
Now you are projecting hard. I got banned from subreddits just for belonging to a pro Trump sub. You can spew your bullshit until you’re blue in the face but everyone knows who the fascists are. The ones that don’t believe anyone but them should have an opinion or be allowed to speak and it isn’t Trump supporters.
Can you define fascism? If not, I strongly suggest starting with Umberto Eco’s essay Ur-Fascism. And if you can, I’d love to hear what you think it consists of.
Conservative terrorism is out control. It breaks out specifically across racial and socioeconomic lines.
Moderates and liberals are trying to protect themselves, while conservatives are hell-bent on tearing everyone down.
My hope is that these are the death throes of the Republican party. A loud gasp for air before the party croaks and shatters.
An important point, liberals are moderates. Or rather, centrists.
That’s why I no longer call myself a liberal. Socialist as fuck, baby!
Damn right

Voting should be pragmatic.
Is there anything that will actually help make things good rather than just “less terrible than the alternative I guess”? ~Strawberry
Is the democratic socialist?

Correct, they do in fact do those things. What were you trying to say?
How is it projection when that is exactly what they are doing?
How many more dead kids do you need to see before taking action on conservative terrorism and white terrorism?
How many liberals were taking pop shots at power transfer stations?
How many libtards were taking pop shots at congressmen? How many blew up congress with a bomb… Oh did you forget about that or did the talking head not tell you.

The overwhelming majority of domestic terrorism is right wing.

I dunno about you but I definitely take someone seriously when they start a demonstrably false statement with libtard.

Your boos mean nothing, we’ve seen what makes you cheer.
You don’t know me.

I’m trying to say he’s not “hard left” by any stretch of the imagination.
What “hard left” policies does Jeff Bezos agree with?
Oh honey….It’s cute that you think a newspaper owned by Jeff Bezos is hard left. Read Jacobin sometime, your head might explode.

Wapo isn’t hard left, lol… not even remotely close
January 6 happened but okay.
And next you’re going to tell me it was than 9/11 and pearl harbor right?
These people are crazy. This community, I thought would be a real political community …. But it’s just full of r/politics refugees
Same idiocy going on here that was going on at reddit

You’re confused, you don’t even know what a ‘hate group’ is.
You think Christianity is a ‘hate group’
When you watch the ideas and policies that self-proclaimed Christians are promoting, it’s easy to get confused.

I don’t remember calling anything a “hate group,” but good job ignoring absolutely everything I did say.
Okay, bro

If this shit keeps up, give it 3 months, and lemmy world will be dead.
Hence the downvotes. They really are pathetic enough to have to have an echo chamber.
Conservative communities are far worse echo chambers. If you’re not metaphorically sucking Trump’s dick you get banned.

Out of curiosity, which one?

I got called a ‘biological terrorist’ and automatically banned from r/justice served by those fascists mods.
Never even posted there before, just woke up to a DM informing me
This was when the abortion decision happened with the Supreme Court
Looks like this place is no different from the last place.
This is a POLITICS community not a LIBERAL one
Ok cool
It should be, but it’s not cool. Because the members of this community treat it like a liberal sub, but it’s called “politics”
Why should I care?
Because liberalism isn’t a political ideology? ~Strawberry
Oh no liberals talking about politics, the horror lmao
Just because people disagree with you on if people deserve humans rights doesn’t mean they’re targetting you, my dude
