I’m not a native speaker so bear with me, but from what I saw, they said “I simply reply to the sentiment I see on this platform, if it was pro-trump I would critique that”
ie: If I’m online and replying to things it’s going to be the most common sentiment- which from my own personal experience it’s not pro-Trump.
From my reading you were the one trying to twist that meaning from “majority sentiment is pro-democrats” to “there are no reactionaries on this platform”
There’s plenty of both-sidesing on this platform, though. Plenty of tankies too. I find it suspicious somebody only sees Biden-or-bust, and has only ever argued against them.
I already explained to myself here, and directly to you here.
Maybe we could talk about something else, instead. You are a woman, you don’t speak English as a first language. We haven’t talked about that. I’m interested: for both of those demographics, who is a better presidential choice, Trump or Biden?
Are you familiar with “being lead along the garden path”? It means to take a path of least resistance which is ultimately bad for you. Sometimes you need to look at where you’re going rather than only what’s immediately in front of you.
Trump is tapping into the worst parts of christofascism, and it’s going to take a lot of work to undo that, and I’m sorry but the Democrats are not credible when it comes to that. Rather than confront these people directly we get the Democrats trying to weasel their way through some third way that involves doing everything they want on the border and a lot more genocide than most normal people are comfortable with.
Materially I’m worse off now than I was under Trump, and there’s a lot more dead people. Trying to ignore those two things and have powerless people make some binary mental choice (it’s not like the popular vote picks the president) or be “bad” is childish. There are people with real power who are refusing to use it to protect our rights! Why are you so bent out of shape that people with no power have a negative opinion online?
I am not voting for either, it’s not an endorsement of either one. that’s just how it is.
I’d rather it be Biden, but I’m not voting for him.
Maybe you can answer why you care so much about policing wrongthink from otherwise powerless people on a heavily pro-democrat website. Your guy’s in power and he’s doing terrible things with it.
lol in what world is that ‘top’, it’s a heavily downvoted thread inside a centrist cj post
@[email protected] also shifted the goalposts from “sentiment” to “top posts.” I was clarifying what I said before the goalpost shift.

Suspicious as in people who don’t like the democrats must have some hidden agenda? Could you explain that for me?

You missed the part where I asked whether you endorse Trump or Biden. Neither isn’t an option. You aren’t getting a USA without a president.
