Equal level of scrutiny > equal number of negative posts
Maybe there are a million “trump is bad” articles because there are a million unique reasons that trump is bad. We don’t need a million “Harris is bad” articles to make it fair, we need legitimate comparison on equal ground. Nobody is insisting that you repost what’s already been said, but nobody needs to hear “Harris is also bad” when the only reasonable goal of such a thing is to draw a false equivalency in order to either encourage people that voting for trump isn’t actually all that bad, or discourage barely-motivated Harris voters from actually getting up off their asses to vote for her.
To be clear, Harris isn’t perfect, but she’s proven to be competent and capable of growth as a human being who is engaging in a similar human experience as other people and understands the actual struggles we endure, their causes, and has proposed some solutions. The other fucking guy is airing out personal grievances, bitching about consequences for his actions, and spreading blatantly racist lies about immigrants which would make Hitler himself blush.
I’m not a Democrat I’m not a Republican. It’s the Democrats that are starting to court Republicans even praising war criminal Cheney. Politicians should constantly be critiqued. Hold their feet to the fire.
That’s what you fucks said about Clinton and now we have a tilted supreme court and two dead women and facing life in prison for miscarriages. Grow the fuck up.
You grow the fuck up and understand that these politicians don’t give a shit about you and will happily sacrifice your livelihood if they can use the threat of “other guy” as a cudgel to get you to vote for them because they refuse to run on things that will actually help people since that would run counter to the wishes of their corporate masters.
We’re seeing this in action as democrats make excuse after excuse for fully supporting a genocide. You know, genocide, which is supposed to be an unthinkable crime against humanity. Should be easy to not support genocide, right? A real slam dunk to gain supporters by pledging to stop genocide, right? Well, turns out politicians don’t care about people’s lives.
Instead of criticizing politicians who act in this way and who actually set policy, you think it’s more fruitful to attack people on here who are likely going to vote for democrats anyway?

If anyone is legit not going to vote because of a negative news article posted by a stranger online… they’re dumb AF.
You’ve been here a while and most have told you about how it looks time and time again.
Either you’re the living embodiment of the Skinner “No, it’s the children who are the problem” meme or you’re a “hidden” Trumpet/Russian asset/Bot
And I keep saying I’m far left.
Then why are you so hell bent on helping Trump?
I see we have gone with option a, living embodiment of the Skinner meme.

You:
Also you:
I’ve posted negative articles and memes of Trump many times. You see what you want to see.
Lol, that’s rich coming from you Ozma.
That’s what you fucks said about Clinton and now we have a tilted supreme court and two dead women and facing life in prison for miscarriages. Grow the fuck up.
You mean this Clinton?: https://www.salon.com/2016/11/09/the-hillary-clinton-campaign-intentionally-created-donald-trump-with-its-pied-piper-strategy/

Maybe Hillary should have actually campaigned harder and earned more votes? Blame the candidate not the voters.
I blame the voters just as much. It didn’t take a genius to see why Trump winning would be catastrophic.
That’s a fine thing to say, but nobody believes you because of inconsistencies in your reasoning.
Welcome to America, where people think that Fox News is a legitimate news source because “‘news’ is right there in the name!”
Oh, okay, glad all we needed was the smart votes and the votes from the deeply politically engaged.
It reminds me of other instances of left purity, where somehow large swathes of voters don’t count because they’re too dirty, or something.
