That's certainly.... An opinion.
Yeah, it certainly is. And not sure if mods will keep it up. It is political news, but it's more opinion than news, so not sure if they will decide that it fits community guidelines or not.
Eh, posting editorials is allowed last I checked. I don't know why you think they'd take it down, unless discussion becomes inflammatory.
I think they should allow it to stay. It's a very convincing opinion - I was able to show that opinion to someone I know, and successfully convinced them to vote for Harris instead of De la Cruz because of this.
Give me ten minutes and I can 'prove' that any one was or wasn't a Socialist depending on my mood.
Well, Lemmy seems to think that anyone who is not a Democrat is automatically a Republican and/or wants a Republican to win. So...
Back in the day I had the privilege of knowing some old school Communists. People who had gone to Spain to fight Fascism and been blacklisted at home.
One of the stories they told was about how in 1968 they were warning young voters to get to the polls to stop Nixon. It wasn't that they were in love with Hubert Humphrey, but they knew he was a million times better than Nixon.
The situation is the same today. If you aren't voting for Harris and every other Dem you're ignoring reality.
You understand what you are doing and what people are telling you. No one believes that you don't understand it.
No, there are plenty of genuine Greens and Socialists, no question about it. Quite a few post content on Lemmy without anyone bothering them.
You very specifically get a lot of heat though. This is due to how you interact in comment sections with people, and why you draw so much more heat than our entire instances of actual Marxist-Leninists.
One really has to wonder if you actually cannot grasp why people keep telling you why voting for a third-party in the current US electoral system is throwing away your vote, or if you're just purposely misrepresenting the argument. Because literally nobody here thinks that.
Lol, it would be nice if it were true, but it's not.
Oh, it’s UniversalMonk posting again.
Thanks for noticing, friend! And no worries, I'll keep posting.
This opinion piece tries hard to frame Harris as super undercover socialist, outlining all the aspects her and DSA's platforms have in common... and I'm like, stop! I can only get so erect !
