The Libertarian Party’s candidate for president says the federal government’s deficit spending is a hidden tax. Chase Oliver — making his fifth trip to Iowa — is promising to veto any budget that isn’t balanced if he’s elected president. “Every single day, $8.9 billion is being added to the deficit,” Oliver said this weekend. “That […]
That’s just it. Here’s the rule you’re trying to report him on.
It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
I think that this rule has problems (there ARE paid actors/bots on here and we should be allowed to call them out as such, Mods), but in this case, karobeccary is adhering to the letter of the rule. They’re not called you ‘boomer faux activist fecal matter masquerading as’ anything. They’ve not even called you an idiot. They’ve just said that your ideas are poorly considered and don’t rise above what they consider facebook mom’s group level boomer faux activist fecal matter masquerading as a political position. You’re finding offence in that position, but you really don’t have room to complain. The opinion is valid. The original article is amplifying Libertarian bullshit that’s designed to peel off voters away from mainstream parties towards minor parties who have ZERO chance in hell of being elected but a distinct and very valid chance of ensuring that voters get the major party candidate most opposed to their personal objectives voted in. And while I support that stupid happening to Team Red because that lowers the chance of a fascist dickhead mangling the Oath of Office in 2025 and the chance of the enactment of Project 2025, I don’t support pitching that same stupid idea to our side. Obviously, karobeccary thinks the same way and is calling your article out, posting that you’re going crazy overboard with it, and shoving it down our throats, despite the downvotes you’re getting making it clear we don’t want it.
PS: Hiding behind community rules and attacking people that disagree with you isn’t a good look.
How am I going crazy overboard posting a a political news article to this political news community?
Not quite sure what you mean. You can just avoiding reading it if you don’t like it. And you can also chose to ignore my posts, or even block me if you would like. But I am free to post articles to this community.
