I've been seeing a lot of anti-voting sentiment going around. Can't believe I have to say this, but you need to vote. Not only is there more to the election than just the president. (State policy, Senate, house), but not voting is not an act of protest. C'mon guys

Gotcha that is the problem, you have been listening to the corporate news. I would recommend diversifying who you listen to.

Right, mainstream news lied that Trump did not incite revolt to overturn elections, or never said he will be "dictator in day one only". Sure, you'd rather listen to Alex Jones, a more reliable news source than listening to Trump's own words.

Looking at your responses to others, I knew you're not living under a rock, you are a Trump supporter sealioning and pretending not to be one.

Trump is a full fledged fascist, and you're a fascist too. The sooner you deal with it, the sooner you could get help. It's not too late.

Yes, trump did not insite a revolt, and he was joking about the dictator thing. Alex jones says interesting things that are fine to listen to, but I would not just agree with him. If you want to know my views, just think of Ron Paul, or Thomas Massie; I will be voting for the libertarian candidate. But sure, throw around the dictator and fascist word around a bit more and totally degrade the meaning.

Lol, he literally approved the January 6 riot after the event and still claiming it was a stolen election without proof.

He has said many things before and did it unilaterally but the Republicans turned a blind eye.

If what you say is true, it's rather unsurprising for a libertarian (the American brand that is) to be enable Trump and put their heads into the sand. The more economically minded right enable fascists, because supporting the left might undermine their economic privileges. You may not be fascist, but you are willing to collude with fascists. The reason after all for Trump's higher poll rating than Biden is because people perceive him to be "better economically", even though he surfed at economic growth produced by Obama's second term presidency and claimed it is thanks to him.

That tweet was not approval, it was explaining what he believed happened. And the rest of your comment is not in touch with reality. You are just repeating the propaganda you team tells you.

Hahahahahahah, keep lying to yourself bud. Anyone can see through you.
