If they spent that energy campaigning for election reform instead of harassing Lemmy users I’d find it more convincing.

Yeah, I'm gonna continue with my lesser evil voting like I do every election. The Democrats pinky promise that they will put forth good policy in the next election cycle.

I would rather someome vote for a party other than Dem or Rep, than not vote at all.

They’re not here in good faith and I don’t believe they ever were.

Maybe the most egregious example of this was something I saw yesterday, which was somebody saying "Tim Walz needs to go vegan". When pressed about why him and not, say, Donald Trump, they said that people on the left and center were more likely to actually be swayed. It wasn't worth engaging any further, but I thought it was pretty hilarious that they bothered to try to push the 60-year-old VP candidate to go vegan, but not the 40-year-old VP candidate. Like, you know that you're not pushing the needle for anybody with that post, right?

It's about as useless as making a post saying that JD Vance should hang dry his clothes instead of wasting energy running a clothes dryer.

Suggesting it's easier to convince a Midwestern football coach/car dad to go vegan than an NYC germaphobe is a level of optimism I have never seen

Look pal, the general said “sow division” amongst whatever socio-political lines we can see, ok? Why Do You Hate Black Vegan Catholics???

look i have had the choice for with or without lube for half a century now. Thing is saying I don't want to get sodomized at all just results in the default of without lube. I hate it with lube but I really, really hate it without.
