With a push from President Donald Trump, House Republicans sent a budget blueprint to passage Tuesday, a step toward delivering his “big, beautiful bill” with $4.5 trillion in tax breaks.
so you think every fucking democrat on Lemmy is some political Philosophy input and is as fucking nerdy about politics as you are?
No, but most people who vote care about at least some policies that affect their lives. You’ve spent this entire conversation dodging every policy point while openly declaring vote purely based on spite. Huge difference.
You insist that everyone has to be at your level of intelligence or they are not worth anything.
Never said that. I said policy matters more than tribal politics. You’re the one who keeps bringing up intelligence, which is telling. Nobody said you need a PHD level understanding of politics, just reading up on the policies themselves should not be that huge of an ask.
I’m not angry at all. I’m having a fucking great time.
Your all-caps rants, excessive swearing, and “I will never ever ever EVER vote for a Democrat” suggest otherwise. People having a great time don’t usually type like they’re screaming or have to constantly say “I’m not mad” who are you trying to convince?
Guess Lemmy shouldn’t be so quick to do jerky things like turn conservative communities into meme communites that make fun of conservatives.
You’re still hung up on a meme community while openly supporting politicians who are actively stripping rights from marginalized people. One of these things is not like the other.
Rather than just wait/ask that a good conservative mod comes, you decide to mock conservatives.
There’s a difference between mocking harmful ideas and mocking people. Conservative policies have real, harmful impacts on vulnerable communities. That deserves criticism, and memes are a form of criticism.
I would rather watch the world burn down and start from sticks and stones.
And there it is again. You claim you “have no desire to hurt people” then immediately say you’d rather see the world burn than vote for someone who might help others. The contradiction is stunning.
Your all-caps rants, excessive swearing, and “I will never ever ever EVER vote for a Democrat” suggest otherwise.
Nope. lol
You’re still hung up on a meme community while openly supporting politicians who are actively stripping rights from marginalized people.
Not hung up on it all. It’s just that it shows how much you aren’t to be taken seriously–you are just anti-republican, regardless of policy. You don’t take me seriously and I certainly don’t take you seriously.
There’s a difference between mocking harmful ideas and mocking people.
And you actually mock people.
Conservative policies have real, harmful impacts on vulnerable communities.
In your opinion. But you didn’t win the election, so not everyone agrees with you.
There was a criticism of your actions not fitting the spirit of the community by you wanting to take it over. And you replied that there was no Lemmy rule that you had to follow the spirit of a community that you took over.
Which means that you have no intention on letting conservative voices be heard.
So following your logic, there is no Lemmy rule that I have to defend every news article I post. I post links to news articles. Nothing makes you click on them. I have every right to do it and I will continue to do it.
You lost. That’s it. Lemmy’s opinion isn’t shared by the majority of the public.
You keep posting jokes, and I’ll keep posting articles. Let’s see which party wins the next election.
Not hung up on it all. It’s just that it shows how much you aren’t to be taken seriously–you are just anti-republican, regardless of policy.
I’ve repeatedly tried to discuss specific policies throughout this entire conversation. You’re the one who admitted “I don’t give a fuck” about policy and just “like Trump.” The projection is astounding.
And you actually mock people.
Says the person who’s spent this entire thread mocking “Lemmy jerks” and celebrating others’ suffering.
In your opinion. But you didn’t win the election, so not everyone agrees with you.
Electoral victory doesn’t determine objective reality. Policies that remove healthcare, cut food assistance, and target marginalized groups cause measurable harm regardless of how many people voted for them. That’s not opinion its documented fact.
Which means that you have no intention on letting conservative voices be heard.
Conservative voices are heard everywhere Faux News, OAN, Congress, the White House, the Supreme Court, Truth Social. The idea that conservatives are being silenced while controlling most levels of government is absurd victimhood.
So following your logic, there is no Lemmy rule that I have to defend every news article I post.
Post whatever you want. Just don’t be surprised when people call out misinformation or propaganda.
You lost. That’s it. Lemmy’s opinion isn’t shared by the majority of the public.
You keep coming back to “you lost” like it’s some devastating gotcha. Electoral outcomes don’t determine moral rightness. Segregation was once popular to.
You keep posting jokes, and I’ll keep posting articles. Let’s see which party wins the next election.
And there it is you’ve reduced politics to a team sport (yet again) where “winning” matters more than the actual impact on people’s lives
You said: “I will never EVER vote for a Democrat. I would rather watch the world burn” and “You deserve Trump. And I will fucking laugh about it every single day.” You’re explicitly celebrating policies that cause harm because they upset people you don’t like.
But it’s your OPINION. Some don’t agree with you and they have their own moral rightness.
No, it’s not just opinion that removing healthcare causes suffering. It’s not just opinion that cutting food assistance increases hunger. These are measurable outcomes with real human consequences. When people lose access to insulin and die, that’s not a difference of opinion, it’s preventable tragedy.
This “everything is just an opinion” stance is a way to avoid engaging with the actual human impacts of policies. It’s a cop-out that lets you ignore the consequences of what you support.
Like I said, you gone and keep posting your memes. I’ll keep posting links to news articles. And we’ll see who wins next election.
And we’re back to treating politics like a sport rather than something that determines whether people live or die. You’ve made it abundantly clear that “winning” matters more to you than the welfare of your fellow citizens.
Post whatever you want. But don’t pretend your motivation is anything other than tribal identity and spite.
“I will never EVER vote for a Democrat. I would rather watch the world burn”
That’s not “celebrating” suffering. lol
You’re explicitly celebrating policies that cause harm because they upset people you don’t like.
I, and many others, don’t think these policies cause harm. Do you think every person that voted for Trump celebrates suffering?! And if so, so the majority of the voting public, celebrates suffering?! lol
Post whatever you want. But don’t pretend your motivation is anything other than tribal identity and spite.
Says the guy who wants to stifle spaces for conservatives so you can turn them into mocking and memes. You don’t want to hear opposing opinions. You want to mock and meme. So do that. How did it work out for ya all the last election?
No, but most people who vote care about at least some policies that affect their lives. You’ve spent this entire conversation dodging every policy point while openly declaring vote purely based on spite. Huge difference.

Great counterargument. Very convincing.

When have I ever celebated “suffering”?
