On Thursday, those affiliated with the Kentucky Party spoke on their decision to nominate Stein, and their reasons at the Capitol Rotunda in Frankfort.
I’m a straight white married dad and I’m not afraid for me. But I have LGBT relatives who I absolutely fear would be at the very least more discriminated against, not by trump directly, but by the fucking douchbag Christian right who think they’ll be running the place.
The problem with Cheeto Mussolini is that he’s only worried about his own outcome, and if it doesn’t affect him, he’ll let whichever group he owes the most do whatever they want. And they have a plan this time since last time he wasn’t supposed to win either.
They don’t run things. If you think Trump is an actual Christian and cares about that (besides playing up to them sometimes to get some votes), then I don’t know what else to tell you.
Besides, I don’t care if Trump gets elected. I’m not afraid of him.
You can care about him and be afraid of him all you want. That’s totally your right. I’m not going that direction though.
I respect and support your right to have your own opinions and to vote for whoever you choose. Respect my right to do the same.
He has a very real chance of winning. He has laid groundwork, like the Supreme Court. He has people around him that are working towards their shared goal - it’s by no means a one man operation. And they have prepared. So there’s a real chance this might be the last time you get to vote.
I believe we should focus on discussing the content of the article I posted rather than personal attacks, in order to keep with the spirit of this community. Let’s try to keep things civil. Thank you!
The statement “He has no chance of winning” is demonstrably false, it is not a matter of opinion. arguably, the statement about third parties is demonstrably false as well
You really don’t think it’s your personal vote that is the issue here?
If you have decided how you will vote, and it is a personal matter only, why have you posted 75+ articles making noise about fringe party candidates’ ballot access?
I didn’t write the articles, friend. I didn’t make the news, friend.
If you don’t like the information in the news articles, please write to the news orgs and let them know why you think they should withhold the information from the American public.
Gee I wonder why you have full confidence that the guy won once, almost won again, and led in the polls for a while, won’t win. It is a fucking mystery. Definitely not that you’re lying. Nope. Thank you!!!
Considering Trump has indicated he aims to abolish elections there is no upside at all in voting anything but Democrats.
I’m not afraid of Trump. He’s an idiot and has no chance of winning. Even if people vote 3rd party.
Your confidence is not warranted
And yet, here I am with it anyway. Also, I’m not afraid of him whether he wins or loses.

Trump is running for president though, not them.
It’s a good thing project 2025 isn’t real /s
Ah, good thing Trump isn’t aligned with the Christian Right. /s

Yeah, I expected as much. You’re a Trump Supporter after all.
No you don’t.
No thanks. Trump Voters can burn in Hell.
He has a very real chance of winning. He has laid groundwork, like the Supreme Court. He has people around him that are working towards their shared goal - it’s by no means a one man operation. And they have prepared. So there’s a real chance this might be the last time you get to vote.
I don’t believe he has that much power. I actually have zero fear of Trump. Not mocking that you do, I am simply saying that I do not.

Imo, the duopoly feed that fear and gin it up
You fucking should be.
I’m not.
This is false.
You have your opinion. I have mine. They differ. And that’s ok.
I actually don’t think the opinion that lying is okay is okay. It actually seems pretty fucking awful. ThAnK yOu!!!1
The statement “He has no chance of winning” is demonstrably false, it is not a matter of opinion. arguably, the statement about third parties is demonstrably false as well
It was my opinion. And it is still my opinion. You guys are crying over nothing. He won’t win.
And I’m still voting 3rd party regardless.

The same reason I have posted over 300 articles and comments about socialists. My post history: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
Because I think the articles are interesting. Nothing I am posting breaks the rules of this sub.
Do you think information about third parties should be withheld and censored?
Please block me if you are tired of my posts and/or comments. Thank you!
This pathetic argument here is basically “I won’t admit to being a liar, plus lying isn’t illegal so you can stop me!”
