We use a first past the post system. Stop denying reality as if your third party candidate matters in the slightest. Until we get some sort of ranked choice/etc, they literally couldn’t matter less
Comment on Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election?
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoStop pretending Harris is running a flawless campaign and ButTrUmP when the stupid lie gets debunked.

We’ve been trying to tell this shining intellectual star and friends that for 6 months but somehow they aren’t able to understand those comments.

A voting system is not relevant to denying support for Genocide. Read what post you are in.
Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m not pretending that. I’m pointing out that the official policy of the US since before my parents were born has been to support Israel no matter what, and if that was going to change because anybody cared what was happening to Palestinians it would have happened decades ago.
So you need to accept that the country you live in will do heinous shit that you loathe and there’s nothing you can do about it.
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
You need to accept that anyone enabling it is responsible. Anyone voting Democrat or Republcian is complicit in Genocide and should face tribunals.

No. If you vote Republican OR neither, you are supporting TWO genocides. Because the Republicans want more than just Palestinians dead, like trans people, and a vote for third party as it is right now is only helping that along.
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Sure bro you didn’t care about the first Genocide but 2 Genocides is your red line.

Wow dude, do you live in a make believe world where anyone who you don’t agree with gets the French razor?
Saying anyone who supports either side should face a tribunal is insane and completely idiotic.
I hope one day you can learn just because you have such a high radical leaning and believe death is deserved upon all who disagree with your ideology, doesn’t mean that it should be done.

Linkerbaan isn’t a rational person, nor participating in good faith. Their entire existence is arguing with people online and accusing people of loving genocide.
barsquid@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Linkerbaan is one of our resident MAGAs. He likes the genocide against Palestinians but wants the guy who blasted Yemen to take over and “finish the job.” He wants more killing in Ukraine. And he wants more killings in the US, like starting with socialists.
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No just the literal Nazis that support Genocide.
zeppo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Brilliant, I’ll just vote for a candidate who can’t possibly win. Then I’m all set.
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Voting for Genocide has a higher chance to stop Genocide than voting against it - Liberals.

Really great job silencing yourself to prove a point. People without voices are great at enacting change 🙄
Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yeah, that too. My tax dollars are going to kill children. Just like my father and his father before him.
Welcome to America.

Ahh, I love you, bro. This place is wild, ain’t it? If one doesn’t fall in line to their militant liberal agenda, you’re ignorant MAGA scum.
I’m just glad to see someone else here trying to talk some sense.
zeppo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
What he’s saying makes no sense at all, in real life. Voting for candidates who support voting reform at the state level is the way to get more choices on national ballots. Convincing otherwise D voters to vote for 3rd parties helps Trump. Maybe not MAGA scum, maybe just misguided and clueless? Who can tell.
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Stay strong my man. We had red MAGA in 2016 now we also have Blue MAGA. The death cult grows fast.
