Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I can't vote for the "good" cop either. They're both working to the same effect.

Which I never advocated for. Are you trying to vote-shame me into voting for Trump instead of Uncommited?

Otherwise I agree the Democrats are also ridiculously ghoulish. They have to be as a neoliberal billionaire ghoul party. They only barely count as the “good cop” because they’re not actively TRYING to overturn stuff like Roe v Wade (of course, they are very conveniently letting it happen anyways) . And of course they’re still doing all of the horrific shit that’s neccessary to maintain a fascist neoliberal state built on the back of racial segregation and murder.

Yes. This is exactly what I'm doing

That's unhinged as fuck. Trump is not actually better than Biden. They're both terrible candidates in every way.

If this is trying to dunk on me because you think I'm a bad-faith lib arguing to 'vote blue no matter who' (no, I think those libs are just as annoying as you do), please understand that I literally cannot understand sarcasm over the internet.

There are more than two choices here. You don't have to vote for the red genocidal maniac over the blue genocidal maniac.

they're not being literal. you're misreading the tone. it's a backhanded way of saying you misunderstood them the first time.
