By that logic, voting for anyone helps or hurts someone. lmao
I happily voted third party. Many others are going to. Accept it.
You’re not in any position to comment on the logic of others, and I’m not the one here who refuses to accept reality.
I can comment on anything I want. Even if you don't like it! :)
Congratulations. That doesn’t change reality or make you magically correct In your fallacious assertions.
Well then you have nothing to worry about, right?! :)
What leads you to that conclusion? The facts certainly don’t support it.

And I don't care. Dude, let's get to the point. You're fucking mad that it's a close race. You're fucking mad that I didn't vote for your candidate in the close race.
Get the fuck over it!
I, and many others didn't and won't vote for Harris. I don't give a shit how mad you are about it. lmao
Oh, that’s some serious projection.
Unless you are claiming both to be psychic and that you voted for Jill Stein, just because you think I’m mad. That makes even less sense than everything you’ve already said.
Oh, so you're not mad?! Yay!
And dude, do you realize I'm the mod for this community? Reporting me to myself for breaking a non-existent community rule isn't the best use of your time. Thanks!
Still pretending to be psychic? What Color am I thinking of right now?
And are you arguing that you mod this sub just so you could be nasty to people and uncivil?
I started this sub to discuss socialist ideals. If you don't like those ideals or the way things are said here, please feel free to block the community.
How is helping to elect Trump “a socialist ideal”?
I didn't vote for Trump.
I didn’t say that you did.
Once again, how is helping to elect Trump a “socialist ideal“?
I didn't vote for Trump though. So I didn't help him. Just because your party is afraid of not having enough votes to beat him, that's not my problem.
I didn't vote for Trump though
Once again, I didn’t claim you did
So I didn't help him.
What leads you to that conclusion? The facts don’t support it.
Because I didn't vote for him. If I wanted to help him, I'd vote for him. Lots of people aren't voting for your candidate. Get over it.
Nobody claimed you were voting for Trump, once again.
If I wanted to help him, I'd vote for him.
Voting for 3rd parties helps Trump. Why do you refuse to accept this fact? The facts don’t support your conclusions or reasoning, so I’m curious as to how you arrived at them.

Oh ok, so by your logic then voting libertarian helps Harris. So you cool with that third party then?
Oh ok, so by your logic then voting libertarian helps Harris
That’s your logic, not mine, and not what the data says. It’s says any 3rd party, not just to one you like.
And what I like, is irrelevant. I’m asking you to explain your reasoning, and all you’ve been able to do is blame others and use flawed logic and other false statements. Is circular logic all you have?
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
Oh, ok. So libertarian party, which is made up of mostly republicans, is magically exempt from your "helps the other party win!" logic. Hmmmm, funny how that works.
Dude, your mad because I didn't vote for your candidate. Lots of people aren't either. Lots of people are voting third party this election. I already have. Maybe you should try to convince them?
Not sure how you read “any 3rd party” and concluded anyone was excepted from that. Again, that’s your logic, which has been proven repeatedly to be flawed.
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”.
Oh I didn't vote for Trump. I voted for Socialist Workers Party candidate. You know, this is a socialist community, so that's kinda what we do.
I didn’t claim that you voted for Trump, just a 3rd party candidate which helps him win.
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
Because I voted for a socialist candidate. And if voting for a Libertarian doesn't take votes away from Trump, then voting for a Socialist doesn't take votes away from Harris. See how that works?
Like most things you say, this makes no sense, and isn’t supported by the facts. Which 3rd party candidate you vote for is irrelevant, as the data shows. They all help Trump win. Also, what libertarians do is irrelevant to what you did.
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”
But voting for anyone helps someone win. Right?
Voting for third parties help Trump win. That’s correct. It’s also backed up by years worth of evidence.
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
Then I guess democrats shouldn't be such assholes to people who disagree with them then.
Any vote for anyone helps someone win. You are making no sense.
Then I guess democrats shouldn't be such assholes to people who disagree with them then.
Like you’re doing? So, aside from the obvious hypocrisy, you’re helping Trump win because dems disagree with you? Because your feelings got hurt? That makes no sense.
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal?”
Oh I didn't vote for Trump. So I'm not helping him win. Just because your candidate didn't get my vote, doesn't mean I am helping Trump. I voted for who I wanted to vote for. It wasn't your candidate. :)
Oh I didn't vote for Trump.
I didn’t claim that you did
So I'm not helping him win.
The facts prove otherwise
Just because your candidate didn't get my vote, doesn't mean I am helping Trump. I voted for who I wanted to vote for. It wasn't your candidate. :)
My feelings don’t matter here. This is about you and why you are helping Trump win, Which the facts prove that you are.

You’re arguing with a well-known for being incredibly biased person who happens to be the moderator of this community. How did you think that was going to go?
This is their turf to spew their nonsense in. Their own little bubble where the rules of common sense and reality don’t apply. There is no way they’re going to let you use facts and logic here.
Though if it is of any consolation, in normal communities, they get their ass handed to them daily.
But I'm not helping Trump win. And I guess this is about your feelings, because you feel that way. And I don't. :)
My feelings didn’t produce that data set I linked, and my feelings don’t explain why you’re helping Trump win. Why do you keep blaming my feelings for what you yourself did?
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
I didn't vote for Trump.
I didn’t claim that you did. But your third-party vote helps him win, and that has been proven for years. I even linked the proof. Why do you keep denying the facts and reality?

I didn't vote for Trump.
That’s circular reasoning and a logical fallacy.
And I didn’t claim that you did. But your third-party vote helps him win, and that has been proven for years. I even linked the proof. Why do you keep denying the facts and reality?
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
Nah, I didn't vote for Trump. Thanks!
I didn’t claim that you did. But your third-party vote helps him win, and that has been proven for years. I even linked the proof. Why do you keep denying the facts and reality? Is it regret? Embarassment?
Again, how is helping Trump win a “socialist ideal”?
You can keep trying, but it's not working. I didn't vote for Trump. :)
Trying what?
I didn’t claim that you did. But your third-party vote helps him win, and that has been proven for years. I even linked the proof. Why do you keep denying the facts and reality? Why do you call asking a simple question “trolling”?
