IF one side is objectively worse than the other, which I would argue is indeed the case, then it follows that the claim that ‘both sides are equal’ is an assertion that either A) the better side is worse then they are, or B) the worse side is better than they are, or C) some combination of the two.
The number 1 is objectively less than 3. To say 1 and 3 are equal is to say that either A) 1 is greater than 1, or B) 3 is less than 3, or C) some combination thereof.
For which claim? That encouraging people on Lemmy not to vote helps Republicans? I mean I don’t have a survey or anything, but I don’t think I’ve encountered a single trump supporter on here. What sort of evidence are you looking for?
do you have any evidence for this claim?
The evidence is called logic.

no one is saying both sides are equal.
We must be reading different memes pal
i’m a logician, so i’d prefer if you laid out your premises in way that is easier to dismiss.
gestures broadly
The thing is it’s a bold claim, and thus if incorrect it is easy to disprove by showing counter examples.
a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. no one should believe the “reminder” without such evidence.
Well you’ve presented no evidence for that claim, so I’m going to dismiss it.
how droll

the claim is that saying both sides are bad is intended to encourage people not to vote. i’m asknig for evidence of that intent.
