        And good on ya for having the balls to say it to this crowd.

        They wanna string me up, and all because I vote third party. I can only imagine what your DM’s will be like after admiting your voting for trump! lol

                No, I don’t believe in it. I was using the argument that you all throw at me every single day. :) And I find it hilarious that you all think it’s ok, when it happens to the Republicans, just not when it happens to YOUR party. lol

                  So you were using an argument you don’t even believe just to try and win an argument because you can’t defend your real position? That’s incredibly bad faith.

                  when it happens to the Republicans, just not when it happens to YOUR party

                  Yes, literally anything that breaks voters from the Republican party is good, and everything that breaks voters away from Democrats is bad. That’s because the Republicans are full of fascists hell bent on destroying American democracy, and the Democrats are the only credible thing standing against them.

                    No, I was pointing out the hypocrisy that’s being shown in people who use that argument. It’s not really that deep, friend.

                    In YOUR view. I respect and support your right to an opinion, but not every one has the same opinion as you. Including about half of the country.

                    s half of the country “fascists” now? lol

                No, like, I’m not. Literally or implicitly.

                If I wanted to vote for Trump, I’d vote for my Trump. Which by the way, I have every single right to do, as an American citizen.

                But I’m not voting for him. I’m voting for Jill Stein. I respect your right to vote for whoever you want to, please respect mine.

                  I do respect it, and the implicit value action it causes. Enjoy your vote, both on paper, and in consequence.

                  I recommend reading about game theory in outcome constrained systems.

                    Oh, I will, thank you! I respect and support your right to vote for who you want to as well.

                    And that photo has been around a long time, and doesn’t bother me at all. It does nothing to change my mind.

                    Plus, it’s already been covered and addressed in a newsweek article:

                    https://www.newsweek.com/jill-stein-ties-vladimir-putin-explained-1842620

                    I’m still happy and proud to vote for her. :).

                    And for the record, I don’t hate Russia as much as people in this community do. I know that fact may wind some people up, but it’s the truth. We are still a country based on freedoms of opinion, and there is no law that says I HAVE to hate Russia or it’s people.

              No, they won’t. Because there’s not going to be any genocide in Michigan. You’re delusional.

              You’re fearmongering about a hypothetical genocide in order to distract from a very real, very current genocide, and that is contemptible.

              The term “genocide” was invented by survivors of the Holocaust to be a klaxon call. The idea was that this crime needed a unique, distinct name so that when people heard it, they’d know to drop everything and intervene.

              It wasn’t invented to be used in political propaganda. When you abuse the term, you undermine its usefulness. You undermine its purpose.
