has the whole world gone crazy?

I have demonstrated that voting third party is inviting a Trump victory, yet these people who supposedly already understand everything I say insist that this is not the case. What’s not clicking?

xor@infosec.pub · 8 months ago

what’s not clicking is that half of the “people” trying super hard to make biden into the antichrist actually do want trump to win and are arguing disingenuously.

the time to complain about biden was the last three years, the time to complain about trump is now.

if their only political opinion is about how bad biden really is… and they never talk about trump, russia or ukraine…
then it’s a duck

judging by your wall of sources, pretending like they’re related to what i’m actually saying, it appears that you are indeed in the room…

also, you’re a sea lion

davel [he/him]@lemmy.ml · 8 months ago

They’re all related to your BlueAnon conspiracy theory about Russian bots, which you didn’t explicitly state but clearly meant to imply.

xor@infosec.pub · 8 months ago

nope, i’m not blue, not blueanon…
not implying what you pretend you think i’m implying…
you’re deliberately fighting a strawman

half of the “people”

Why are people in quotes? Because you mean bots, meaning paid shills and/or software “arguing disingenuously,” and not regular people posting earnestly/organically.

if their only political opinion is about how bad biden really is… and they never talk about trump, russia or ukraine… then it’s a duck

What “duck” are you alluding to? Russian bots.
