All you ever talk about is how genocidal Harris is, when I don’t think she is actually pro genocide, and I know Trump and other republicans really are. Your negatives about republicans are few and far between, but you talk at great lengths of the evils of the democrats, and then you get cross with people who point out that you’re echoing right wing talking points.
The genocide thing is standard Republican projection - Trump literally supports the genocide in Gaza, calls himself the best king of Israel ever, then calls Biden “genocide Joe”. Every accusation an admission.
Then you’re not paying attention. She has not distanced herself at all from Biden’s position of unconditionally arming Israel and reaffirms her support for Israel every time she talks about the issue.
The genocide thing is standard Republican projection
I’m not a Republican, so it’s not “Republican projection.” Republicans are also genocidal and you shouldn’t vote for them, obviously.
Trump
Again, we’re not talking about Trump here. We’re talking about whether Harris would be an “objectively great” president. I think her legacy will be greatly tarnished by her support for genocide. You can’t say that she’d be “great” while simultaneously trying to paint her as a “lesser evil.”
It wasn’t me who said she’d be great, actually, but as usual, you spend more time trashing Democrats than Republicans, and yet try to persuade me that you’re left wing. Doesn’t quite add up from where I’m sat.
Oh, I guess this conversation is settled then, we’re in agreement on the point of her not being great. Not entirely sure why you replied to me in the first place tbh.
Because you spend all day trashing the Democrats and barely mention any of the downsides of the Republicans and yet claim to be left wing. It doesn’t add up.
I literally just explained this to you in another thread. Obviously your conspiracy theory about me is baseless and unfalsifiable.
Point me to anyone on Lemmy who supports Trump and I’ll be happy to argue with them about why Trump is bad. I actually just did. I just don’t see people like that often around here. But I’m sure your conspiracy theory can explain that away, just as it could explain away anything else I do or don’t do, because that’s how conspiracy theories work.
I don’t have to prove anything to you anyway. Why don’t you prove to me that you don’t work for the NSA?
It doesn’t add up because actual left wing folks would be able to draw very obvious conclusions about who would be the better president, but even in your criticism of Trump, all you can manage is “no better than the Democrats”.
Yes, you claim to argue from a leftist perspective, and I’m sure that you have plenty of reading to help you with that, but when your advice to other leftists is to hand the presidency to a lunatic right winger, I’ve got to doubt your motives. At the least, you’re an accelerationist who doesn’t care how badly the country burns if you think there’s a chance that years later your pipe dream that America turns communist could happen.
I don’t have to prove anything to you anyway.
I never asked you to, I just expressed my pretty reasonable doubts about your motives for spending so much time and effort convincing leftists to abstain from deciding the presidency.
Why don’t you prove to me that you don’t work for the NSA?
Firstly because I would have to doxx myself, and secondly because I don’t feel the need to convince you of that, mainly because I haven’t been toeing the NSA line on lemmy throughout the election period whilst claiming to be against everything they stand for, so I don’t believe there’s a case to answer.
I am a third party voter. I am critical of both the Democrats and Republicans from the left, because they are both right wing parties.
Of course I’m not going to make the case to someone that Democrats are a good choice, because I don’t believe they are. Basically you’re claiming that I’m operating in bad faith solely on the basis that I disagree with your position. It’s completely ridiculous.
If I were actually an accelerationist, I’d be spoiled for choice and perfectly happy with either candidate.

Good old both sides.
