    I think the reason people jump to the conclusion that you’re a troll is that you’re promoting a heavily unpopular candidate [1] that additionally is a third party candidate in a two-party FPTP system. You then act hurt and surprised when you get forceful pushback.

      If she is so “heavily unpopular” then Democrats have no reason to be angry about her or worry about her. Right? I mean, would people be soooo mad if she were as unpopular as you are saying?

      OH! You mean unpopular in THIS community.

      You then act hurt and surprised when you get forceful pushback.

      I’m not hurt and definitely not surprised.

      But the name of this community is “politics.” That doesn’t mean ONLY pro-Harris/pro-Democrat articles comments are allowed.

      Surely you agree that diverse opinions should be welcomed here, right? I mean, they are NOT welcomed, but they should be.

      This sub isn’t called “OnlyDemocratSupportersCanPostPoltics,” right?

      So pushback and disagreeing is fine.

      But calling me a troll, a Russian plant, a Russian stooge, an asshole that “wants people to DIE!” etc is uncalled for.

      And many of the comments have been removed by mods, for being uncivil. You can check the modlog and see.

        Elections have been won and lost on the margins of a few tens of thousands of votes. You know this.

        OH! You mean unpopular in THIS community.

        I cited general favorability ratings from realclearpolling in my reply, here is the link again if you somehow missed it.

        The rest of the post is just once again ignoring any points I’ve made and attempting to restart the argument. I guess you just really enjoy arguing.

          But if she is so “heavily unpopular” then she wouldn’t have enough votes to even come close to changing thing. I mean, she’s so “heavily unpopular” and all.

          I’m voting for who I want to vote for. That’s my right as an American citizen. Even if you don’t like it. That’s democracy.
