Idk who nuxcom is but is this really a contender for best of Lemmy? You see the same comment in every other post so is this person that special or do we have a slow day?
BestOfLemmy
Manual curation of great Lemmy discussions and threads
My vote is very much on slow day and, given a choice, would nuke this thread entirely, if that helps.
If folk MUST steal other's work, at least pick something that is semi-uniquely them and not literally a post made while taking a shit.
Guess I felt they summed it straight up.
America is like 100x more powerful than Russia, so it's really fucking weird that an ex-president is beholden to Putin.
Sure it's weird.
His vp pick fucks couches. I'd say it's on brand.
The whole thing is fucking weird.
But what's weird and what governs the future lives to be lost are separate issues entirely.
If it's weird and beholden to Putin, idk what else there is to say.
It's money and blackmail for sure.
mmm yes this worked so well for Clinton in 2016
You're right, I do hate America.
Yes, we all know that's your motivation
I voted for Biden because I wanted to stop fascism. I hated America, but I figured the world would suffer from a Trump presidency.
Then Biden did genocide.
The world suffers and fascism is already here. You're just voting for red or blue flavors. Death to America, I won't do it anymore.
"I hate genocide - but death to America"
Gonna assume you're a troll...which makes me the idiot for commenting
The US was founded on settler-colonial genocide. Surely you know Hitler was inspired by the reservations? Read a fucking book.
You're right but you're still an asshole. If you think Biden was bad, you should know that things can always get worse. It's entirely likely that Trump starts a war with Iran alongside Israel and surrenders Ukraine to Russia. Him using nukes is on the table too. It's too big a risk. That's where we are at. Risk minimization.
Biden is already helping Israel aggress against Iran! They're the most violent state in the region and the US is enabling their ability to start WW3 by provoking all their neighbors. It's already a regional war and it's going to get worse no matter who is elected.
As for Ukraine, we could have already had a negotiated peace deal. Instead, Biden and the Democrats want to fight to the last Ukrainian and so they sabotaged peace talks and blew up the Nord Stream Pipeline. They have no one to blame but themselves for the current situation in Ukraine, and it's their fault that Ukraine will be in an even worse position when Trump steals the election.
They never wanted Ukraine to win anyway. The purpose of the war was to let Russia bleed itself of blood and treasure. If they wanted the war to actually end they'd have given Ukraine the support it actually needs, but they would never and will never do that.
All of that said? If I really though Democrats were the lesser evil I'd vote for them. They're doing genocide, marching us to WW3, don't give a shit about meeting our climate goals, and are happy to let Republicans hurt us to help them win over votes. Fuck the Democrats, death to America, and when Trump steals the election you'll be on my side in the resistance anyway. Why wait?
Trump would make this worse in every respect. Trump can't steal the election if he loses in a landslide. Votes from people like you could make this happen.
Does Harris seem to be running a campaign that will beat Trump "in a landslide"? Is that really how the election is looking to you?
That's not what they said.
Sure sounded like it. I just want to be clear: It's not going to be a landslide. It's going to be nail-bitingly close. People shouldn't lie to themselves.
"If you don't vote Harris, you hate America"
Great way to convince the folks at hexbear and .ml to vote Trump
As if anyone of them is old enough to vote. They sound like 14 at most.
I mean basically everyone except usamericans somewhat hates the US. Its like a love hate relationship. Cant live with them, cant live without them.
Anyone in the world who doesn't somewhat hate their own country is kind of an idiot.
They weren't going to anyways. If Harris magically brought peace to the middle east tomorrow, they'd find some other reason to not vote for her.
