Dude, I'm seriously ill. I don't eat solid food. I just got back from the Mayo Clinic. I can't walk the dogs without getting worn out.
This is not my job. I can't even hold a regular job.
That sucks, but it's all our job. Trying my best to get you and everyone else being exploited by our medical system help!
So despite the fact that I don't even have the energy to walk more than half an hour, you expect me to go canvassing? Do you want to put me in a wheelchair and push me around?
No of course not, but you do comment a lot on lemmy. I'll keep on talking to people in person we need an online presence as well, I'm trying to post in support of Jill on lemmy and reddit
It's May. Jill Stein has no chance in 2024 no matter how much you want that to happen. Not a single poll shows her in even the double digits.
Yet you post 1000 comments on lemmy without even attempting to change that. I am expressing democracy, you are not.
Oh well then, that certainly does help both this person and america in general. Glad we cleared that up and justified your incredibly inflexible approach to telling a disabled person to "get off their lazy ass". You're expressing democracy, got it.
Hilarious. Every liberal uses the same logic: "I wish there was another option but we have to vote blue!" without putting any effort into supporting another party. The dude literally comments thousands of times.
Love how you try to act like I knew they were disabled when I told them that, pathetic from you.
Love how you equate commenting numbers with ability to do anything, and the reframing of my "pathetic" comment about being inflexible in your arguments once you were made aware of their disabilities as me saying you should have known from the start.
One big love-fest here!
Not true at all, I said we need an online presence and already welcome many disabled people in our ballot efforts through calls and online outreach.
It is pathetic you tried to paint my comment as ableist when no one was aware of the poster's situation and my statement is true. Liberals do need to get off their ass, but instead complain and vote for Dems.
