Dude actively engaged American politics, while being a pro-Russian Putler-dick loving troll. Claims to be American. But genuinely, just look at that profile. It’s profiles like that which influenced zoomers to stay home and not vote.
There’s was a massive propaganda push to ‘protest by not voting’ , and by golly did they fucking succeed.
Correct. Good thing that my comment was a hyperbolic denunciation of a clear pattern of actual attitudes and behaviors rather than a blame shifting strawman like the one I was replying to.
Don’t forget all the people of the world who sit back and laugh at the suffering of millions of people just because the leaders they can’t control do bad shit. Getting pleasure out of watching people suffer is wrong.
the suffering of millions of people just because the leaders they can’t control do bad shit.
My brother in Christ, what do you mean by that can’t control? Women, minorities, poors, olds voted for someone who’s going to take away their healthcare, deport them or their friends and families, and wreck the economy.
These people literally had option to deny him that power.
I don’t think there’s going to be any such option in near future.
MAGA party explicitly mentioned denaturalization during the campaigns. That means Americans who were immigrants or were born to immigrants.
How many of those are Trump voters/non-voters, we don’t know but safe to assume there’s plenty of such idiots.
However, there are illegal immigrants in USA. They love Trump and his rhetoric about illegal immigrants, not realizing he’s talking about them.
"I’m an immigrant, and I love Trump,” said Alex, a day laborer who has been undocumented since he came to the U.S. from Nicaragua 28 years ago.
Fernando Pineda, a 52-year-old undocumented immigrant from El Salvador who also works as a mover for U-Haul, said he’s ambivalent about Trump’s win because he feels protected by San Francisco’s status as a sanctuary city, meaning it does not coordinate with ICE to deport undocumented immigrants.
Correct. I mean anyone laughing at another country because it’s going to shit is a bad person. I don’t laugh at the Russian people. I laugh at the government. The average person is kept powerless for a reason.

It’s simply impossible to imagine they were telling the truth when they said genocide was a red line

“What’s a strawman?”
L2read dipshit
A strawman is what I was replying to. I’m not the dipshit with a comprehension problem here.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Correct. Good thing that my comment was a hyperbolic denunciation of a clear pattern of actual attitudes and behaviors rather than a blame shifting strawman like the one I was replying to.
I’m gonna refer back to my earlier comment
And you’re thus continuing to be wrong.
Deliberate and obvious hyperbole to emphasize a valid point is NOT a strawman, nor is it equivalent.
You think if you can justify a strawman, it isn’t one.
That’s not how it works.

Pretty sure they mean non-Americans who can’t vote in our elections.

At this point apathy or schadenfreude is the only option left because these people are beyond reach or help.
Correct. I mean anyone laughing at another country because it’s going to shit is a bad person. I don’t laugh at the Russian people. I laugh at the government. The average person is kept powerless for a reason.
