Essentially, there have been two reactions over on grad today:
- I didn’t vote, neither of the candidates were going to stop the war in the Gaza Strip, therefore, there could be no good outcome for the US, therefore I can’t be held accountable
- I voted for a third party, which Republicans will have to acknowledge and respect
It’s not just grad and hexbear. Beehaw is doing it too.
Positive vibes only space, my ass.
Update: I never wanna hear anybody talk about how cool drag is ever again
“Don’t you remember how hyperbolic we were about McCain and Romney?”
No, I remember exactly what I said about Romney. That I feared his administration would bring in decreased workers’ rights, a damaged economy, and damage positive US influence on the world stage.
God, I hate these fuckwits trying to play ‘Trump is just another Republican’ games. In 2016, maybe it was forgivable in a stupid kind of way. Not now.
I don’t really think other Lemmy instances actually benefit from being federated with Beehaw - communities that ignore off-site downvotes are able to spread propaganda with far less effort than it takes the admins of other instances to delete it.
