Because a large % of them are incapable of admitting they were that wrong about something so consequential. Many of them will continue supporting him to preserve their ego, even as their own family members stop speaking to them.

Ask me how I know.

I bet it’s even higher than that in actuality. There are people who know they should be embarrassed by it, but still support him anyway.

Surely there’s a better way to determine if you’ve caught a fish or not? Because damn…

You don’t have to shut up about genocide to talk about other awful things happening directly because of the US.

your favorite cop

Most of us don’t like Kamala, but we voted for her because we’re not fucking morons.

He wants to be remembered, and he knows that there’s only one reason people remember Truman

They don’t want to live out Zone of Interest in real life?

Thoughts and prayer-ups for the clots and flare-ups

You need the print screen key for something else is what you’re saying (I had trouble following your reply)?

Can only speak for KDE, but you can easily change the screenshot shortcut to something else in settings.

Yeah and if they did it in 2024, they should accept the consequences of their actions, which includes ridicule.

It’s really not that rare. I’ve always found that “law” to be kind of bullshit.

“I would like to hear how you would explain to my children what you’re supposed to be.”

A penis? It’s just anatomy, but it’s pretty telling that this idiot thinks he’d have to get sexual to explain it.

Lol what?

Wait, are you literally saying that you purposely did whataboutism so you could show people it’s distracting after they respond to it?

Lol ok

No one on Lemmy was discouraged or persuaded to vote for anyone

This just isn’t true, there absolutely were people here saying no options were good because of the genocide

Let’s see where the goalposts go now.

I think deep down, they know it but their ego isn’t allowing them to accept it because then that means they need to take responsibility

They were specifically talking about voting for third party in the 2024 general election. They weren’t yelling at people who support other parties.

How was their game theory proven wrong? Voting third party is part of the original calculation. Because of the first past the post system in the US, voting third party in a general election is throwing away your vote. In 2024, it was a spoiler for the Democrats. So it helped Trump. That’s game theory.

This is what these people constantly ignore. They reply by calling us stupid shit like “blueMAGA” or a liberal, and it usually terminates the conversation. They know exactly what they are doing.

When in reality, I can only speak for myself, I fucking hate the current Democratic party. Like 99% of them are absolute trash.

That doesn’t mean I’m not going to call you out when you’re online working overtime to convince left leaning voters in October 2024 not to vote.

But no, we’re just dirty liberals who love the DNC and are incapable of criticizing them (just be sure not to check comment history).

Exactly.

Grant and Carter are probably the two presidents who tried the hardest to do something positive with that power

I would say both Roosevelts did too. Admittedly, my Grant knowledge isn’t super deep, what was it that he did that you think puts him in that group?
