    I’m very glad you finally went mask off on your privilege driving your decision-making.

    I’ve always said I’m not afraid of Trump and that I don’t care about him. My stance on him hasn’t changed at all, so there’s no “mask off” moment happening here. I’m still not voting for him, and I still don’t care if he wins. Plain and simple.

    But I’m not voting for Harris. Neither is half of the country. So is half of the country “yikes and pure privilege”?!

    The only thing I’ve changed my mind about since being on Lemmy is that I will never vote Democrat again. The hate and vitriol I’ve faced here simply for not supporting Harris has guaranteed that. You guys are far more hostile to different opinions than any Republican I’ve encountered. So congratulations, you did change my mind on that! Happy now?

          Not relevant but cool. That’s pretty much all you say.

          You already showed your hand

              That you are comfortable with conservative judicial appointments and the influence and consequences that represents. You said as much by saying you are ok with another trump term, and his judicial appointments are not some myth or fearmonger story, they actually happened and that’s the track record.

                I’m not voting republican. So not my fault. Half of the country isn’t voting for your candidate. Accept it.

                I’m not voting Republican or Democrat. So try again.

                  You said you’re ok with another trump term and I highlighted a concrete consequence of that. This isn’t about voting, it’s about what you’re ok with.

                  Edit based on your own words, you are at least neutral, if not accepting of the type of policy and appointments trump makes. That’s the mask off. You said you aren’t afraid, suggesting you are positioned to not be materially impacted by trump, which is the privilege component.

                  I’ve made no comment on anything beyond what you’ve posted, and have not suggested you don’t deserve to vote for whoever you like. Im discussing the content of your comment.

                    But you see, they are sooo slippery, your words just bounce right off of them. Hell, even their own words do!

                    And I don’t care. Here let me make it bold so you don’t misunderstand: I don’t care if Trump wins. I’m still not voting for Harris. :)
