You really that stupid that you can't fathom that people would want neither to win?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (3 children)

I can fathom that’s what they want, but you can’t always get what you want, especially if what you want is neither a Democrat or Republican to win a state-wide election in the United States. Wanting something does not change the reality of the situation.

You don't live in a real democracy. You can't shame anyone here into voting in a sham election with two openly genocidal parties. Go back to reddit-logo

Where did I shame anyone? I've been trying to be polite, I haven't thrown an insult once. I've extended more civility than has been granted to me. Though half of it seems to be residual anger at Reddit.

You're asking people to vote for a genocidal warmonger, lmao that's the insult genius, and it's beyond a breach of basic civility

Oh. “Chapo Trap House is aligned with the dirtbag left, a style of contentious left-wing political discourse that eschews civility in favor of casual, blunt, often vulgar expression.”

Guess I gotta get used to looking all this shit up while browsing. No more browsing Lemmy on my phone. No wonder Egon thought I was doing a bit.

Civility was invented by The West Wing tv series. Abe Lincoln used to bully his opponents to tears in debates.

If you asked any of us to vote for genocide in person you would likely end up with spit on your face and maybe a fight on your hands. Don't ask people to vote for mass murder if you want people to like you.

very true! another good example of that: you want us to support genocide joe but the reality of the situation is we never will.

How about standing up to your corrupt government instead of meekly taking part in the farce it has set up to control you?

Are you that cowardly that revolution isn't even an option to you?
