        Thank you for restoring my faith in this community. I had no idea that me posting a news article about the Green Party would make a “politics” sub so irrationally angry. lol

        And thank you for explaining about the Russian diversion campaign so much better than I did. If you don’t mind, I will use your wording from now on. Much more clear and succinct than my attempts to say the same thing.

        Guess I’ll keep doing posting about the Green Party tho. Because this is a “politics” sub and not just a “If you aren’t a Democrat, don’t post here” sub. :)

            Thank you!! Not only do they attack me in this Lemmy community, they actually follow me to other communities (that have nothing to do with politics) and try to downvote me there. All because I am not voting for their candidate. It’s crazy! lol

            And it hasn’t changed my mind at all. Voting Green! Thanks for your support!

              He does not realize that things he posts, many of which are religious, all show up in people’s “all” feeds. With how small Lemmy is, the all feed is very, very commonly used.

          Keep doing your thing. People are so stupid on the internet and will read one thing and immediately post misinformation saying another thing. I wouldn’t say “Russian diversion campaign” since Jill Stein is running in good faith and you don’t want people to think her whole campaign is one.

      You saying that I don’t “seem to be arguing in good faith” implies that I am lying or being deceitful. Not true.

      Nothing in that link shows that she is paid by Russia to spoil the election, or is a russian stooge.

      Russia taking advantage of America’s disconten in voting and trying to throw the election, doesn’t mean that Jill Stein was in on it.

      That’s like me spending money to a hacker, and saying that “user Boddhisatva of Lemmy” is a better CEO of a company than Elon Musk.

      And then say I start tweeting that. Then I start advocating that. I start saying "“user Boddhisatva of Lemmy” every where.

      Does that mean you are my stooge?

      Just because Russia is an asshole, doesn’t mean that Jill Stein is corrupt. Even if you don’t like her.
