If I ignore/block them, it allows them to continue unchallenged. I hate getting into it with them, since they are a baseline idiot.

I guess that's it. I saw a person with a 6 month account spouting garbage, was gonna block but thought perhaps that wasn't morally responsible. Wondering what the options were.

Maybe read all of the "I wish the shooter would have been a better shot" comments on Lemmy. Maybe that will tell you why.

First term vs running for 2nd. Not the same. Also he didn't need to go to a fucking church to take a photo op.

He says a lot of shit. Doesn't make it law or truth. So where is the proof that we won't be able to vote again? Any changes made to the constitution? How come every single newspaper in the world isn't reporting on the fact that we won't be able to vote again?

Do you know what plans are? You can't seriously not see the issue with this. Will this only matter once it happens, or the fact that he is even alluding to it. Nothing matters until it happens? That's your argument? He doesn't care about the constitution, see prior ignoring the 1st amendment, and ignoring the judiciary.

It was reported on. He keeps adding more and more bull shit. Are you unfamiliar with the concept of the news cycle? You are aware the major news orgs are owned by like 6 companies right?

Nah, you all hated him then too. That's why so much crying when you all lost to him a second time.

Do you know what plans are? You can’t seriously not see the issue with this.

Again show me proof that we won't be able to vote again. Someone saying something, or thinking about something, or laughing about something isn't proof that it's going to happen.

Show me proof that there is a law or constitutional change that says we won't be able to vote again. Or even a news article that says we won't be able to vote again.

No shit we hate the felon con man. No one tried to kill though, only people that did were right wing nuts. Your lack of empathy to people crying when their lives are at risk is quite sad.

Again show me proof that we won't be able to vote again. Someone saying something, or thinking about something, or laughing about something isn't proof that it's going to happen. 1Show me proof that there is a law or constitutional change that says we won't be able to vote again. Or even a news article that says we won't be able to vote again.

Again not an issue for you until it happens? Then what? It's not an issue for you that the potus even hinted at this? What happens when you won't be able to vote again? Is it a "oh no one told me?" Or a "oh well" for you? Just because there hasn't been a law passed yet doesn't mean he's not a fascist dictator. He said it, and if that doesn't bother you, it should.

I shared him saying it. And here is more for you.

No shit we hate the felon con man.

Obviously. Guess you all shoulda came up with a better candidate so that he wouldn't have one a second time.

Again not an issue for you until it happens?

I didn't say it wasn't an issue. You stated it as fact, and I said it wasn't a fact. Because it's not.

I shared him saying it. And here is more for you.

Still no proof that we won't be able to vote in the next election. Do you any proof of constitutional changes or laws that say that we won't be able to vote again in the next election?

If not, then say you "think" we won't be able to vote again. Because it's your "opinion," not fact. Right now there are no laws that say we won't be able to vote in the next election.

It's easy when Elon messed with the voting machines, as well as racially targeted voters registration lists being purged, and gerrymandering districts.

I didn't say it wasn't an issue. You stated it as fact, and I said it wasn't a fact. Because it's not.

Cause he said it. That is known as a "fact".

My person. Trump has shown he doesn't care about laws, or the constitution. Your argument is that it has to be on the books before its a problem, it doesn't have to be a law. It's easy to make it so that you can cast a ballot and have not count, that removes your ability to vote. The fact that he mentioned it should have you FURIOUS. The fact that he said he was going to run for a 3rd term should make you ANGRY. The fact that he's ignoring the judiciary should have you out in the streets. Sitting there saying "well there's no laws" is a semantics argument.

LMAO

Cause he said it. That is known as a β€œfact”.

I'm not talking about someone saying something. I'm saying there is no proof that we won't be able to vote next election. You have still not shown any proof.

Let's save this conversation. then when voting time comes, will you apologize if you're allowed to vote? Or is it gonna be a "well we can vote because we made sure we stopped him from changing things" sorta thing? lol

Wanna bet some bitcoin on us being able to vote next election? I'm willing to bet. Are you?

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

People in north Korea can vote too, is that "democratic"?

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That's not the discussion. You said we wouldn't be able to vote in the next election. I asked for proof. You provided none, because there is no proof of that.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

As to your point, it's just what was said it doesn't matter because there are no laws. Show me the laws or the constitutional amendment.

I'm just matching your energy brah.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Show me the laws or the constitutional amendment.

There is no law or constitutional amendment that says we won't be able to vote in next election. And you have no proof that we won't be able to vote in next election.

I think we will be able to vote in the election just fine.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

There is no law or constitutional amendment that says we won't be able to vote in next election. And you have no proof that we won't be able to vote in next election.

As if the felon cared about laws or the constitution, what you need to tell yourself to cope brah.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Again, you have no proof that we won't be able to vote next election. Because there is no proof that says that.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Again, you have no proof that we won't be able to vote next election. Because there is no proof that says that.

Again, you don't understand that the felon doesnt care about laws or the constitution. I'm sure you can vote next election, just like they do in russia and north Korea.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I’m sure you can vote next election, just like they do in russia and north Korea.

Again no proof. So are you just gonna refrain from voting next election then? Since you think it won't count. First you said you wouldn't be able. NOW you're saying it just won't count. So what are you gonna do about it?

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Again you don't understand that that fascist, rapist, conman felon doesn't care about laws or the constitution, and your inability to comprehend "not voting" is the same as sham elections like russia or north Korea, is quite telling.

I will vote, because as of yet I don't live in a fascist dictatorship. I will defend my country from the fascist is what I will do.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I will vote, because as of yet I don’t live in a fascist dictatorship.

So you are refuting what you said earlier. Good job!

Lol no, never refuted what I said earlier, nice try, try again.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Nah, you admitted it. All good now.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Admitted what? That i will vote because I live in a somewhat democratic country? Yes, that doesn't change the fact that trump is a fascist and any elections in the US will be sham elections.
