  • You’re commenting on the very specific set of social, cultural, organizational, and regional elements that have affected this election, and you have no direct knowlege, or comprehensive knowledge of any of it. Yet here you are feeling really strongly about it.

    Where did I say anything of the notion “democrats suck for losing”.

    Also, I’d argue that no one has “comprehensive” knowledge of the elements that affected this election. At least not at this point in time. “Direct” knowledge is IMHO not that important to judge the situation.

    I think you underestimate how much US politics is covered around the globe. Just look at this community and remember: there are a lot of non-US citizens on Lemmy.








  • Exhibited in your suggestion that conformation bias is clouding my ability to read.

    Sorry, that’s not gaslighting. I was suggesting that your confirmation bias makes you cherrypick non-voters among all the people criticizing the Dems. It’s simply absurd to claim that only abstainers criticize the Dems. I did not try to manipulate you.

    Demonstrated by your argument redirecting the focus to those who are ineligible to vote.

    You said that “those who didn’t vote shouldn’t be allowed to complain”. I felt included, since I didn’t -ote, but I’m not a US citizen. Refusing to steelman your point does not equal strawmanning.

    Ready to try again? Although, you may have a better chance of convincing someone less literate.

    I’m trembling, when thinking of your literacy. /s 🙄

    Stop telling me how great your farts smell.
