Nihilism is stupid. Why vote at all, even for your perfect candidate, then? I'm not going to waste more time on you when your position boils down to voting doesn't matter.

You should vote for the best/least bad choice. Like an adult.

The jailing and harassment of many thousands of people because of the color of their skin. Measles. It would be great to live in a world where we had the option of voting for someone who perfectly fits our ideals. But we don't, so instead we have to vote for the best/least bad option at the time.

The choice is between the two people who are actually running. And as the other individual said, not voting doesn't mean you aren't complicit. But not voting for Kamala does mean you supported sending hundreds of people to be tortured in El Salvador. The murder of over 100 people on boats.

Your arguement is foolish from the start. "One position says: vote for the politics you actually support. The other says: voting for what you believe is immoral when there’s a lesser evil available." That is describing a world that doesn't exist. The choice isn't between your ideal candidate or not.

Ok, again, it is for him I assume a throwback to the forum days, when the mod team would take care of it. He wants the mod team now to take of it, but that is a dumb ask. So he should just start blocking people, but he won't again because stubborn/dumb.

It isn't hidden. He is a creepy shitty person. We just need Dems to champion it.

That is gross right? Will wanting those shit people to be banned is not some crazy reach. I get why bluesky won't, but wouldn't it be nice to have the shifty anti Trans follk banned? Same for the for the just trolls in his replies. They are just trolls. You don't have to support trolls.

I just read your comment about blocking right wing, anti Trans accounts, so it seems like you should get it, as what are anti Trans accounts doing but going after acceptable targets according to their group? Their group is toxic and so their targets are not acceptable.

No, wrong. Acceptable targets are others according to their group. That is just throwing minorities to the wind. Very bad thinking. Ugly way to view the world. Talking specifically about the insult only comments.

You can't do that within the system. Pile ons suck. Particularly when done dishonestly like the one I saw about the darling post, but the solution is still just to block or create block list. Big social networks just can't function like something akin to say dragonmount (a forum from my youth).

No, he has been pretty clear that he thinks the mod team should decide. It is just him missing the forum days where mods would definitely ban a bunch of people who post replies to him. That is unrealistic in our current world, so he should just start blocking people. He is stubborn/dumb so he won't.

Darling posted something entirely judgement free and correct (so far as I know as it seems the initial pile on did not read the article correctly). You lot decided to go off becuase you have been fully consumed by right wing views. Stop being their stooges.

He has never said to ban people he disagrees with. He has said to ban people whose contribution is just random dumb childish insults. You can defend the right of people to post chilidsh insults but do it legitimately without fabricating a false reality.

That and shit like LED lights (which are the devil) and the decision by car companies to make repair harder in order to save a couple of bucks a vehicle in manufacturing costs. Squeeze out as much profit as possible for the wealthy and punish the poor.

There was no choice a voter could make that would stop the genocide. Voting or not for Kamala or trump had the same impact. Many other issues were at stake. I don't understand how you folks even try to argue otherwise. Obviously the lesser evil between two choices is better. Stop being idiots.

And the failure to vote that way has only had increasingly bad consequences over the past few decades as the repubs have become more and more extreme. Kamala/trump was not a vote on genocide, neither had any intention of stopping the flow of bombs.

Absolute nonsense. Trying to ignore the simple truth that there are only two choices in an election is absurd. People should always make the choice that would bring the lesser evil/greatest good. That should be everyone's core moral principle. Not doing so is why we are where we are.

He made a statement without judgement. You ascribed judgement from your own views, which are heavily colored by the idea that immigrants are bad. That may be due to pushing back against the right, but it has caused you to view the world in their framing. It is an ugly way to view the world.

Choosing to interpret it as "too much immigration" rather than "not enough support" comes from within. It is an ugly way to view the world.

Veganism is a significantly more important diet in India, China, Brazil and Mexico than the US, as both a percentage and total vegans. It is far more closely tied to non-european traditions, particularly Asian and African. Eating a bunch of meat is very much tied to colonialism.
