    A republican victory means Ukraine losing war. Unfortunately Putin won’t stop in Ukraine, just like Hitler didn’t stop in Poland and Austria.

    A republican victory means weakened USA and alliances in Europe - inevitably leading to WW III.

    Of course they are which is why they’ve taken out all the stops to make it happen.

    There is a new push online on various social media platforms (including Reddit and Lemmy), by Russian Bots to spread either pro Trump nonsense, or anti Biden propaganda. Lots of people online posing as progressives trying to convince people to either vote for someone else, or even just to stay home on election day. Apathy amongst liberals and centrists is one of the biggest weapons that the GOP has.

    Spoiler candidates can be very dangerous. RFK Jr has no dreams of winning, and instead is looking to leverage his name to steal a few votes away from Biden and hand Trump a victory.

    There are also going to be a whole hell of a lot of dirty tricks which will try to cause confusion or stifle the vote. Some races will be extremely tight, so even a few percentage points switch sides or don’t go vote and a Trump win is absolutely possible, which will greatly benefit Putin and his pointless war.

      do you have any proof for this? I think you are making it up to discredit people who don’t like your candidate.

    Remember when Russia had some technical difficulties and for a few days, all the conservative mouthpiece comments and posts just stopped?

    That was really nice.

    Republicans are already questioning our support for Ukraine to pave the way for this to happen. Kowtowing to Putin is “America First”.

    This sound like propaganda, red and blue attitude toward the “enemy” has been pretty much always the same and so have been most key people in usa government. War is a gold opportunity for politicians and authorities, they seek war they don’t try to prevent it.

      Trump was impeached for blackmailing the Ukrainian president.

      Meanwhile: “They’re all the same.”

        Biden shares his own affairs with ukraine too. They are all the same because they are all part of the same rigged system

          Your apathetic stance is a carefully manufactured one, and it helps Putin as much as anyone who is a full blown MAGA lover.

            This is your logic: if i call out USA presidents and the whole government for being corrupted this helps Putin.

            It does, but only if you are short sighted and don’t believe in justice

      Not propaganda. Many Republicans including Trump appear to not see Russia as an enemy. Look at Trump’s comments, he would stop supplying Ukraine with arms and pressure them into giving parts of their country to Russia.

        Politicians make lies to get votes but once they get elected they do what the government has always been doing. Are you aware of cold war?

          You seem to completely ignore what has been happening these last couple of years, which very easily disprove your claims.
