      Seriously, does anyone believe this? Trump is the DNC fault? Ridiculous. It’s certainly not the RNCs fault or republican voters for choosing him. And it’s certainly not the voters fault for voting for him, or people protest voting because they don’t want a woman or whatever. No, it’s not even the electoral colleges fault! It’s the DNC for not pushing Bernie. I can’t believe I voted for the leopards eating faces party and now my face is eaten! Damn you Hillary!

          So instead of addressing anything I wrote you move the goalposts and start hurling insults? Like sure, it would be great if we can go forward and hold the powers that be accountable for shady crap, but how is that relevant to this election? Unless of course your goal is really to sow dissent and try to get trump elected.

          Are you sure I’m the one who ‘lacks intellectual capacity’?

              The mods have better things to do than police entire threads, we remove reported comments that break the rules, you know, like this one.

                Naaah, you just remove the comments you disagree with. You’ve been called out for this before. And you banned the person for saying it.

                  Whether I disagree or not is immaterial. And yeah, people who argue with me repeatedly despite being told to stop if they continue do get banned.

                    Cool story. I’ll just block you so I don’t have to worry about that. That’s what you suggest people do when you all refuse to moderate, right? Just tell people to block the problem So you don’t have to show your biases?

                Also, the mods have very little to do as they seeming refuse to remove comments that point-blank blatantly break your rules. Even after asking them to do something about it- two of you refused to even respond to the reports annd private messages, and one of you trolled me for a day, side-stepping the issue without ever addressing the complaint. Meanwhile, you’ve removed comments from myself and other that break vague rules of “uncivility.”

                Yet when the same rules are broken by certain others- you ignore the reports and then threaten to ban people when they message you about it.

                So let’s not pretend that you’re all hard working unbiased gifts to lemmy.

                You’re not. And there’s a lot of people that are very aware of this.

                  A lot of comments get reported for breaking the rules when they absolutely do not. I’ve seen reports on “bad language” when there’s no restriction on that whatever, so long as it’s not directed at other users.

                  Want to call the subject of an article some pejorative? Go for it! Just don’t direct it at other users and we’re golden.

                    There in lies the problem. These comments accuse me (and others) of blatantly false bullshit. I’ve done the same thing from the opposite side, and gotten comments removed- yet, their accusations remain.

                    Again, I say BULLSHIT.

                    there’s a very strong bias among the mods in this community. Many have spoken out against it- and you silence every one of them.

                    Just drop it. We both know this is a pointless debate you will ultimately win because of your authority here.

                    We’re done here.

      They wanted him to win because he COULD win. Bernie couldn’t. I say this as someone that aggressively supported Bernie.

      The problem is that you don’t understand what’s at stake, so you can rest on your single-issue outrage and think you’re in a place to demand better.

      You’re not in that place. The rest of us know that, but you refuse to listen. So you and others like you will do what you did in 2016- fold your arms and throw a temper tantrum.

      This is how Trump will win.

        Bernie couldn’t win. Tell that to Hillary… cause she sure did lose and is why Trump got into office in the first place. Don’t forget the DNC admitted that they had a “right” to sabotage Bernie, because they had no obligation to be impartial.

          Okay man, I’m not going to argue with you. But not voting is a dumb way to express disapproval.

          End of story.

              Look kid, do what you want. You’re clearly incapable of seeing history repeating itself here because you haven’t lived through it long enough-

              So make your mistakes and hope there’s a democracy remaining that will forgive you for it later on down the road.

              I’m done arguing with you.

                I don’t know what you think… that I won’t vote for Biden given that is my only choice, or that people can’t talk bad about Biden and the state of the DNC else Trump might win. If you believe the latter, then you should rethink who you’re upset with.

                  Because my point was very clearly stated to call out the idiots that are here suggesting that people shouldn’t vote.

                  And you’re here defending them.

                  It’s not a big stretch to assume that you’re full of shit and just here to argue on behalf of the propagandists.

                  I’m done discussing this with you, so go ahead and have the last word. I’ve made my point.
