"If you don't vote Harris, you hate America"

Great way to convince the folks at hexbear and .ml to vote Trump

They weren't going to vote for Harris anyways. If she magically brought peace to the middle east tomorrow, they'd find some other reason to not vote for her.

They won’t be voting in the election because 85% of them are not American.

[–] viking@infosec.pub 17 points 11 months ago

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.

"see what you made me do? You made me do the exact opposite of what you're asking me to do."

Yeah, nah, bro, that's not how this works. They were already going to vote Trump, no matter what.

Refusing to vote for Harris and actually voting for Trump are 2 different things, I know you can make the argument that both lead to the same outcome but they are 2 different choices

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 4 points 11 months ago

I mean, sure. In the same way that when you pull up to a traffic circle, you can go left or right. After all, they'll both lead to the same place, right?

They are two different things, in the same way that running towards a rabid dog, and sitting still while a rabid dog runs towards you, are two different things

"I just don't think the dog should have rabies in the first place" is a perfectly reasonable thing to say, and it's not going to make the dog not have rabies

They just showed how dumb you are tho, so yeah I guess you're right here.
