apnews.com Most voters think the economy is poor, but split on whether Trump or Harris can fix it: AP-NORC poll

Voters remain largely divided over whether they prefer Republican Donald Trump or Democrat Kamala Harris to handle key economic issues, although Harris earns slightly better marks on elements such as taxes for the middle class.

lemmy.ml banned this user yesterday for being a troll. Isn’t it about time that lemmy.world did also? For Christ’s sake, there is an election going on, and it’s been beyond clear for two months that this user intends to sway it, and fully opposite anything resembling a leftist goal.
- How did you generate those stats? Is it a website, bot, or what? It provides an interesting insight into how an account behaves.
  
  It's actually a script I wrote. I'm in the process of cleaning it up. I am going to open source it once I finish. If you're interested, I can send a link to it, in the near future.
  
  Here is the tool: https://codeberg.org/p00perNickel/lemmy-user-stats
  Let me know if you have any issues with it!

  Hadn't realized it was so little.
  and fully opposite anything resembling a leftist goal.
  Is this a leftist politics magazine? Or was it intended to be more neutral? If it was named /m/VoteBlue or something then that's make more sense - but in fact I see there are separate magazines for moderate politics and progressive politics (that this one is partnered with).
  it’s been beyond clear for two months that this user intends to sway it,
  I mean that's probably true for most of us as well. (We want to sway it to a Harris win, naturally.)
  lemmy.ml banned this user yesterday for being a troll. Isn’t it about time that lemmy.world did also?
  I'm not sure lemmy.ml is the best example to follow here. Lots of users block the instance outright because of their censorship policies.
  Ironically, a ban from lemmy.ml is likely a point in favour of this user - as tankies seem unlikely to be the type to ban a Russian troll on the Russian gov't payroll, strongly suggesting that this user is in fact not that.
  
  You can try to use the fact that the script attempts to be objective against it, sure. That's just called "bad faith". 11.6% of a person's day is a lot, and you don't get to just erase this important piece:
  None of this takes into account time reading others’ posts/comments, or alts this user may secretly have.
  The most active posters on Lemmy rarely compare to this, and I've yet to see anyone as singularly focused. Not to mention the copypasta aspect which the script does a decent job of highlighting.
  Is this a leftist politics magazine?
  Lemmy is a leftist place. Sounds like it's not for you. No one is interested in your troll apologia.

The economy sucks, our buying power sucks, home foreclosures are insane right now. Neither is finna fix it because they represent the donor class, not the working class.
Harris is currently having economic and tax policy being written by people on wall street, Blackrock, the ones currently fucking us over on housing.
- Yep, agreed!
