        Oh, they’ve said repeatedly that they are “not afraid of Trump winning” and the statements about the dangers of another Trump are “fear-mongering” and “exaggerations.”

        Absolutely screams only the kind of privilege you see in middle class, white, cis, hetero males. Honestly sort of surprised they’re not spouting Ayn Rand bs, but definitely the same vibe.

          Nah, brah, they are a TrAnSrAcIaL mOrMoN sAtAnIsT who recently went from being a viking on their profile to a Skyrim-style cool ass black warrior. This is how you know they are completely real and not fake in any way. And don’t you forget it – this mother fucker is 100% WoKeFrEe!

          middle class, white, cis, hetero males.

          So are you saying those are bad things? Are you trying to judge or shame people for how they were born or their skin color?! Why did you bring race and sexuality into this?!

          Wow. Just wow. Pretty icky. I can’t take anything you say seriously now. You are showing your true colors.

            The are obviously saying it’s gross that you would let other people suffer since you apparently belong to a group of people that won’t suffer for your actions. But sure, go ahead and cram a bunch of words in someone’s mouth in an effort from distract from what you are doing.

            Ha! You are a precious snowflake my friend! I offered no condemnation or even opinion on any of those things. Strange that’s where your mind went to though.

            I just suggested that you evidenced the kind of privilege really only ever seen amongst a certain demographic. Are you saying people in that demographic aren’t privileged? Are you denying the systemic oppression to women and people of color? The enforced economic disadvantage on the poor and working class?!

            It’s almost laughable that you call yourself a socialist.

              I’m not even in the demographic that you tried to mock me with. Do you think all people in that demographic are privileged?!

              I’m not denying oppression of women or color. My mother is black. I don’t even know why you are bringing those things up.

              I’m starting to see your true colors. Ewww…

              Thanking you for something doesn’t mean you got it right. But you tried. So hey, as long as you are trying, friend.

              I’m still not voting for you candidate. :)

                That’s okay, no one with any brains is voting for yours. Since you switched from Stein, your candidate won’t even crack .05%. So while half the country may vote against my candidate, at least 99.95% aren’t voting for yours.

                    I mean, other than the fact that you’re obviously so privileged — as you’ve said so often — to not be afraid of Trump winning. And then so oblivious, callous, and dismissive of other people who are justifiably worried that you spend an inordinate amount of time trying to persuade folks that voting third party in the presidential race is a justifiable idea.

                    And unfortunately third party wankers do have both a chance at helping Trump win AND having no chance to win themselves. Or did you already forget the fine print in the Quinnipac poll you yourself posted this morning? So there is a great moral peril and a frivolous display, and actual adults should have no trouble telling one from the other.

            Doubt it. The campaign you’ve embarked here would not make much sense for you do engage in if you were going to do so.

                  Posting to Lemmy is always optional, if you find an article you’re apathetic about you don’t actually have to post or crosspost it. Try again.

            So is every poster that posts a news article here, “shilling”? Because if so there seem to be a lot of shillers for Harris.

                    Because you said the comic fooled me. But I have been “fooled” long before that comic was created.

                    Also, you’re just wrong.

                    In YOUR opinion. But about half of the voting population isn’t voting for your candidate. So are they all wrong too? Every single one?! lmao

                    once you’ve figured out where it gotcha…

                    No clue what that means.
