Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Right. We are facing very complex problems that have no simple answers.

People want a simple answer, and that's what Trump gave them. Truth is irrelevant.

The problem is that people on the left tend to actually have ethics and morals.

And you have made it clear that you prefer they have none.

What's your actual endgame then?

I see you talking a lot of shit but you don't actually have anything constructive to say. Makes it look like you're just arguing in bad faith or worse.

I have a question for you: how is your support of Harris any different than anyone elses?

What’s your actual endgame then?

It's certainly easy for people who want the status quo to never change to demand an endgame from those that want it to change.

I see you talking a lot of shit but you don’t actually have anything constructive to say.

You want constructive? Ok. Gee, it's great how the "good" party is supporting genocide. Best shit ever. Glad they were willing to go to bat for Netanyahu even though it meant losing to Trump.

I have a question for you: how is your support of Harris any different than anyone elses?

I don't expect her to be exempt from criticism, and I don't scream that anyone who doesn't love genocide and only genocide like you do is a Russian like you did in our other conversation.

That's an incorrect assumption and doesn't answer the question.

You want constructive? Ok. Gee, it’s great how the “good” party is supporting genocide. Best shit ever. Glad they were willing to go to bat for Netanyahu even though it meant losing to Trump.

Your candidate (remember you said you voted Harris) supported that so gtfo with your righteous indignation. If you want to play that game you're to blame as well.

I don’t expect her to be exempt from criticism, and I don’t scream that anyone who doesn’t love genocide and only genocide like you do is a Russian like you did in our other conversation.

OK? Criticize all you like, that's what I was doing before you decided that somehow YOUR support for Harris was different than every other persons on lemmy.

So I'll ask again, how did you support Harris but aren't a genocide supporting democratic voter but think others are?
