    This is exactly why this discussion is insufferable. You have literally been told how this person voted but you are so convinced by your own bullshit (ie that anyone mad about US support for genocide must, for some god damn reason, support Trump) that you don’t even believe it.

    I cannot wait for the 6th so that we can have this conversation without it getting sidetracked by overly loyal democrats condescendingly explaining how first past the post works as if we don’t know already.

        It’s funny how you can flat out accuse someone of lying about their vote because you simply don’t believe them and that is totally fine, but when I pointed out the issues with doing that this is “uncivil” and must be removed.

        This person told you how they voted. The only reason you don’t believe them is because you have been lied to and you have bought into the lies. People mad about the current line on Gaza are generally not voting Trump, they are just mad at Biden and Harris. Perhaps if you have a zero sum mindset this is difficult to understand but it really is very simple.

          Oh it was removed. Good. It had a horrible tone so I skipped it. This one too. It’s notable I tagged you months ago as an anti-biden zealot because of your attacks against anyone who isn’t trump

            Hmm tagging anybody who doesn’t agree with you as a “zealot” makes you seem like the zealot.

            I hate Trump. Take a look through my comments.

            It had a horrible tone so I skipped it.

            Sorry for the tone. But you are accusing somebody of lying because you insist on painting others as ridiculous caricatures instead of engaging with them in good faith and it pisses me off. It doesn’t matter what tone you take doing this, you are the problem.

            I am absolutely astounded that I can be falsely called an “anti Biden zealot” and this is not “uncivil” but my initial comment was.

              Yeah my opinion and tag is based on a consistent history of seeing you spread hatred of Democrats.

              I myself tried to reason with you and so did others. You did not care.

                  I’ve been playing with the Lemmy API recently. You just inspired me to build an app I’ve wanted. A script that will show your interactions with another user. So in cases like this I’ll just drop a link proving my point which you either won’t respond to or will write thousands of words defending your position from 4 months ago or whatever

                    Actually sounds cool!

                    So in cases like this I’ll just drop a link proving my point

                    Would be interesting to see it…

                    which you either won’t respond to or will write thousands of words defending your position from 4 months ago or whatever

                    And now you’re assuming I’m an asshole again? You must see the possibility that you’re misremembering something and have completely got my intentions/beliefs wrong?

                    If you can find me praising Trump or saying vote for him (or not to vote at all) even one time I will admit I’m wrong. But I literally never have and never would.

                    I hope Harris wins and we never have to listen to him again. And I can’t wait to be able to talk about Gaza without this getting in the way.
