And the fun part is these aren’t my words. These are the words of the “Uncommitted” faction that wants to hold Democrats’ feet to the fire. They’re saying that at the moment, there’s bigger fish to fry – a MAGAt movement that would make everything Team Blue has done look like child’s play in comparison. So, Mr. Give Some Fucks isn’t just arguing with me. He’s arguing with the guys and gals actually advocating for Palestinians.
I can get behind this. Sure, we can criticise Team Blue for slow-dragging their feet on protecting Palestinians. Never said we couldn’t. That said, there’s clear consequences to a Trump victory. The Uncommitted have made it clear they grasp this and ask you to vote for Harris, even if they can’t endorse Harris. Staying home, voting third party, or heaven forbid, voting Trump will just make things in the Middle East FAR worse.
Sounds good.
No. A losing campaign looks like 2021-01-06. That’s what a losing campaign looks like. It ain’t over until the fat lady sings. Republicans are disenfranchising known Dem voters, making it hard to vote for people they suspect won’t toe the line, and have people out singing the praises of alternative Left-Wing candidates to everyone who will listen, taking advantage of the ‘the Left has to fall in love, the right falls in line’ factor. Check your registration. Check the last day to register and check your registration again on that day (at least, I’d check weekly until the last day). Make sure your address is correct and you have the proper things to jump through flaming hoops and moats filled with crocodiles because Team Pepe WILL throw that shit in your way. And make a plan to vote. You got to get your vote for Harris (and nobody else other!) locked in on or before election day. Deliver a resounding no to Team Shitgibbon!
Here’s the receipts:
I’m not sure. Should I report my own post to get it in front of the moderator’s eyes, or just keep these posts whenever we start talking about this poster.
Thanks for digging those up.
True, you might be right, but at least calling it out calls people like Jordon Lund to attention. I noticed after he caught flak from me, he started more directly challenging people like this poster. Maybe pointing out to him how this Socialist Berserker said similar but different things to one comment within minutes or even seconds of each other might just be the ammo they need to actually call a spade a spade. That said, if they don’t, we have the receipts and we can point to them over and over again every time posters like this one spew this kind of malarkey. :)
Call that out! Report it. If they make it easy for us to see, we should sure call them out on it.
I do think you’ll disappear after election day. If you’re smart and you lose, you should disappear after election day, because we will point out once again, that like the past 59 elections, Third Parties won zip and accomplished zip. But I see you’re looking forward to proving me wrong, and all you have to do is like tag me or some such shit, at which point, I’ll call you a loser and/or a jerk and be done with it, even if the mods remove that post. You see, Mr. IMMA VOTE THIRD PARTY HUR!, my job is to only counter your bull until the election. Once it’s done, I’m done with you, at least until the next election comes up and you start doing Putin’s and Trump’s (or whoever replaces him, hopefully) again. I could literally block you the day after the election and nothing of value would be lost at that point. The only reason I entertain you now is I don’t want anyone buying your bullcrap here. Debunking your constant spew is a full time job, though, which is why I don’t respond to everything you post.
Oh yeah, and I forgot to address the Trump thing. You see, if all you did was vote Third Party, I couldn’t actually call you out because that would be your little secret. But you’re not just planning to vote Third Party. You’re here and presumably other places literally spewing out one post ever 18 or so minutes day in and day out screaming how Third Parties are good. Your third party vote is roughly 1/20,000 of the end result in a swing state. But peddling the BS that you can vote Third Party without concern? That could convince a lot of people. I’m trying to do my part to counter (not shut down, counter) your bull so that people in a close swing state won’t subject everyone in this country, including my Black bisexual pagan goth wife, to Project 2025…
I will never be friends with people who want to subject me and people I care about to Project 2025…
Nah, I’ll just tell you you’ve got a weird obsession if Harris wins, and rightfully point out that you led us to getting Project 2025 with your dumb vote if Trump wins.
Let’s bring this dream into reality and vote.
So…I’m with you. Fascists are bad, and we need to make sure that Fascists can’t hide their fascism when and if we get this country sorted and back on its feet. But I have questions!
Liberals have a good reason for questioning your methods here. We don’t want to become what we hate because when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you. We’ve seen it happen time and time again. And those of us who look at your suggestion wonder if we will become Nazis trying to fight Nazis your way.
Doesn’t harm the moneyed interests, so the NSA and the FBI can’t give a single shit about it.
I’m not going to speak on THIS poster, but…
What is this? A bank of phones caught click-farming in Thailand not too long ago. It’s very similar to Chinese and Russian bot farms – a handful of operators who are connected to a metric fuckton of phones, each signed into a fake account with tools to help these bad actors ‘get in character’.
You can usually tell troll farm accounts by their prolific post history. I have a job so I can’t stick around and talk politics all day, but these guys do, so they can literally post once every 18 minutes for over a month, day and night, without any interruptions. You might ask “don’t you have a job that you should be doing?!” when confronted with constant posting, day and night, but the answer is they DO have a job and that’s to push the memes and BS that they are pushing. Another way you can tell? Two replies to the same message – caused by the troll farm employees stepping on each other’s feet, and not properly handing off identitites to each other. Rule 3 says I can’t accuse Socialist Berserker of being one of these troll accounts, but Rule 3 doesn’t prevent me from correctly pointing out that this sort of operation exists, and how you can tell if an individual is a member of this operation. So…make your own minds up.
Thank you for saying this. Come November, one of two people will walk out with the victory: Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Nobody else. We saw in 2016 and 2020 that the Shitgibbon can get LOTS of votes. We had to put up 7 million more votes than they did to win, and it was STILL close. Vote. Get your friends to vote. Get your friends to get their friends to vote. And help as many strangers who are voting Blue to vote as possible.
Nothing should stop you. Harris got this in the bag? No. She doesn’t. Go vote. Trump’s got no chance to win? No. He does. Go vote. Swifties coming out en masse and you don’t need to worry? No. Trump’s got fans of his own and you should always worry…and go vote. Go vote to counter every useful idiot and Republican Troll and Russian bot out there who has convinced a Greenie to do the stupid thing and vote third party.
Team Red doesn’t deserve sportsmanship. Run that score up nation-wide. Check your registration deadline NOW and check your registration today, and repeat this check at the last day to register to vote. If you don’t show up in the roles, you need to register. Screenshot that too so you have evidence you were registered to vote. Make sure you have your ID ready and understand all the hoops you have to jump through. Numerous organisations exist to help you:
Don’t let anything get between you and voting Harris in the upcoming election.
Lols. Persistence pays off, eh?
Hi. Let me explain my downvote to you, 101.
When you post an article, you get a screen that looks like this:
In that form, you can submit the title as is, or add more context, in the Title field. For instance, you could have given the full title, including the subtitle:
This would have made your post clearer.
Alternatively, in the Body field, you could have included a few lines from the article.
The claim was shared on Russian state-run media Sputnik’s Chinese-language Weibo on Sept. 11, 2024.
“Harris wore the Nova H1 Audio earrings during last night’s debate with Trump,” the claim reads in part. Sputnik cited “American musician Jonnie King” to back its claim.
-and-
A photo comparison between the earrings worn by Harris during the debate and the Nova H1 shows they differ in shape. In particular, the metal portions of both earrings show a major difference.
-and-
Under the debate rules issued by ABC it is forbidden to use props or pre-written notes.
However, ABC did provide pen and paper for each candidate’s use during the debate.
…would have made great fodder for the body of your post.
Either way, and I suspect you would have gotten better reader engagement. Let’s not reward bad journalism and bullshitconspiracy theory factories, please.
Edit: A word.
Oh, you can change your presentation, here, on the Internet, where the Men are Men, the Women are Men, the Children are FBI Agents, of course Socialist Berserker isn’t part of the conclusively proven Russian and Republican mission to siphon away votes from Harris so Trump can steal it, and nobody, and I mean nobody knows I’m a cat? SHOCKED, I tell ya! SHOCKED! 🤣
Fortunately you’re not a moderator and don’t get to say what is and is not allowed. Rule 3 does allow us to say that Muslim Americans, or indeed anyone else, who votes Third Party or stays home as morons. We just can’t call you (and you can’t call us) morons directly.
Dear reader, we got the Shitgibbon in 2017 because a very small fraction of our voters in each of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania (1.07% in MI, 0.81% in PA, 1.04% in WI) defected to the Green candidate. These states were lost by a narrower margin than the number of voters who voted Stein, allowing Trump to run roughshod over the country for 4 years, being a Russian Asset and damaging the fabric of our nation’s norms, making the place a worse place. It doesn’t take a lot of voters, and yes, I am worried that some Lemmy voters will read the trip this poster is posting and decide to give Stein a chance, like those voters did in 2016.
I can’t call this guy a moron because Rule 3, but I can say ‘if you vote third party in this election with what’s at stake, you’re a fucking moron’ as a general statement. Please make the smart choice. Don’t listen to this … poster.
That it’s the advocacy group trying to hold Biden and Harris accountable for the continuation of the atrocities in Palestine saying this should make it clear. The actual people on the ground may feel strongly about Palestinian civil rights, they know where their bread is buttered and that the other realistic alternative in this election is “Orange Hitler”, to use another poster’s euphemism, is just plain horrible.
