The only two extant monotremes in the whole world have similar anatomies? Shocking! You could make this same meme substituting any other monotreme characteristic, really.

Whatever, that's an opinion piece.

That's literally all wrong, but ok, bud.

Lol, that is 100% true... only get votes by calling their opponents far right on social issues.

Can't wait for 28 when you libs call the Republican candidate a uniquely dire threat

Heard this same story every 4 years my entire life. It's starting to not work anymore

Who's making things up to feel better? Yeah, you accused them at least a few times of using scare tactics to gain favor, indicating that the threat isn't really there and that it's actually nothing to worry about. Then you use the same scare tactics that the DNC threatens to drag the US to the right.

Have sent way more links

You've sent 5 sources across like 28 comments, I've done over twice that. So what?

January 6 was not a real insurrection or else they would have guns and a plan to stay

They did, among other weapons. They also had to be forced from the building before they left, they weren't leaving on their own. They also weren't just let in, there is footage everyone has seen of lines of riot cops fighting to prevent entry to the building itself.

You're the one making up hyprocritical arguments to vote for Dems

Again, I've always said it should be Biden on the basis that Biden wouldn't be as bad as Trump, despite Biden's clear flaws. That's what I'm still saying. You're the one continuously criticizing the Dems for using scare tactics to get votes, and then promptly doing exactly the same for yourself by baselessly calling the Dems "far-right" over and over.

I'm the one stating facts here

Lmao you've done nothing of the kind, you just keep giving the same insane opinions. Something like, "Biden broke the UAW strike" is a fact and literally true, well done. That's the first fact in a good while, though. It's also just one example, so here's a counter-example. Trump took SNAP from nearly 700,000 people. Something like, "the DNC are far-right" is just an opinion and not literally true. You'd have a lot more work on your hands to be convincing in that regard when the real right is salivating at the thought of gutting programs like SNAP and Social Security right now.

Trump is too incompetent

More handwaving. He literally already came close to stopping the certification of his failure by force and has lots of help from his team of loyal strategists. This election really is like no other.

Lol, that is 100% true, Dems are far right economically, and only get votes by calling their opponents far right on social issues.

Doubling down on the hypocrisy isn't going to help you. Here you are calling them far-right again. Which is it, is it a bad thing to scare up voters for yourselves by supposedly exaggerating the evils of your opponent, or something you find useful yourself? These are just empty words without anything to back them up, anyway. You haven't shown any of this or made any actual comparisons to the right, it's no more than an opinion. Why does the actual right hate Biden's economic policy if it's so far right?

This time is for real!

Why not? You've certainly not provided anything that would convince me otherwise, you've just handwaved it away. It would be hard to argue that these are not unprecedented times for a long list of reasons. We've already personally witnessed Trump's appalling presidency and we've already witnessed his attempt at a coup to forcefully stay in office. It's certainly not impossible that he'd simply try again, and it's certainly not impossible it would work this time, having learned from past mistakes. This was just 3 years ago, it's still very relevant to now.

I've been saying it should be Biden over Trump from the beginning and gave reasons for why I felt it should be so. There's no inconsistency there. You've just been calling the Dems far-right and then complaining that the Dems only get votes by calling their opponents far-right. That's hypocrisy plain as day. It doesn't matter if you spend money or not, you're still out here personally spreading the exact same message.

quickly quoted and debunked your CNN level talking points

If you say so, bud. I provided verifiable facts with links that support my stance of why Biden is the better practical choice instead of Stein or Trump. You've just been doing whataboutisms this whole time.

[–] Depress_Mode 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (13 children)

It is true liberals use the same arguments to elect economically right wing democrats, you keep falling for it.

You're here endlessly repeating the exact same talking points as seemingly your only persuasion, and yet you think that I fell for these arguments? Sounds like whatever political news "source" you use just makes the same talking points about the DNC instead of the GOP. If you claim that these arguments are necessary to "trick" voters, but you use them yourself to try to persuade me, then either you got tricked into supporting the Greens, or you're trying to trick me yourself.

Your refusal to vote tactically doesn't make you better or smarter than anyone else, if anything it indicates that your priorities are all out of order. It almost sounds like you hate Biden even more than Trump.

I got you to send a book right back lmao, all I had to do was call you too stupid to be able to. I wanted to see what I could write in about 10 minutes, the amount of time you said it would take to waste my vote. It was kinda fun.

If only we had politicians in the government right now calling for the end of Israeli aid. Oh wait...

[–] Depress_Mode 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (15 children)

Yeah, you just keep repeating the same absurdisms with no substance to help convince yourself you're above others.

You are dumb, you vote for genocide, you vote for the right, blah, blah, blah. Those are just words with nothing behind them, bud. I could say the same about you and be just as "correct" as you are. All you can do is lower yourself to name-calling because you can't think of anything intelligent to say.

You seem to be the one throwing a fit right now, so you calling me a baby is pretty rich.

[–] Depress_Mode 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (17 children)

Vote for another party then.

I do. One with far better chances of at least limiting disaster right now instead of pie-in-the-sky notions of the Green Party coming to solve all of our issues one day. It'll be too late by then.

Your vote ensure we move right

Certainly not when compared to the alternative of gassing it to the right under Trump. If you aren't frightened by the prospect of another Trump presidency right now, you aren't paying attention.

[–] Depress_Mode 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (19 children)

They can't win because no one votes for them. They peaked 20 years ago. Honestly, I'd have more respect if you were to simply eschew electoral politics altogether. That's at least a more principled stance. The Green Party isn't our savior any more than the Democrats are. At least the Democrats have a chance in this election, though, instead of some unclear future date which may never come. There are plenty of failed parties, the vast majority of which never got anywhere.

Your votes are what enables Trump to win, rather than merely exist.

[–] Depress_Mode 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (21 children)

That's still a worthless strategy if those people can't win right now, especially given the consequences of the right taking power. You will find yourself incapable of convincing me that Trump is worse than Biden.
