Speaking at an event about combating antisemitism, the former President and Republican nominee said he’d also ban refugees from Gaza from entering the U.S.
Critical thinking would lead you to vote third party.
What they lack is a specific piece of electoral information about first past the post voting: https://youtu.be/s7tWHJfhiyo
Combine the understanding that america–deeply unfortunately–uses first past the post voting with critical thinking, and it’s obvious third parties are, for now, a waste.
But if you wrongly accuse them of not having critical thinking skills, they’ll use their critical thinking skills, which they have, to assume that you are not a good source of information, even though you’re encouraging them in the right direction.
No. Critical thinking skills preclude even entertaining the notion of voting third party, because critical thinking skills would lead one to comprehend how FPTP and the EC work, and realize the all-but-guaranteed mathematical impossibility of electing a third party president.
Anyone who proudly proclaims to vote third party is one of the following, without exception:
an uninformed idealist, aka a useful idiot
a bad actor
an entitled jackass with zero disregard for the effects of their actions
In any of these cases, I wouldn’t trust these people with a butter knife let alone a ballot. But that’s not my call, so I call them out for what they are.
In my experience it’s usually number 3. They’re not at risk under a Trump administration (or so they think) so their hands are clean, no matter how damaging their actions are. Throwing Gazans, Ukrainians, LGBTQ, women, minorities, etc under the bus while claiming a moral victory for “punishing the Democrats”. And no amount of explaining this to them will make them realize this, because they just bury their heads in the sand, call you a genocide lover, and start blabbering about “Blue MAGA” or whatever is the new buzzword of the week.
They have critical thinking skills and they’re the most brilliant people to ever grace this earth they’re just drawing the wrong conclusions using their grand magnificence!
Last time I checked on those people they claimed Trump would be completely pro Palestinian and everyone who didn’t see this true true was stupid. Didn’t know they jumped right to jUsT As BaD.
Yeah, their newest cope is to say the Democrats are equally as bad as the Republicans, despite that being so blatantly false to anyone who has been paying attention for the past 8 years. They’re in for a very rude surprise when their plan to “push the Dems left” results in Trump obliterating Gaza and enacting Project 2025 and pushing the country even further right than it is now. And there won’t be another election for the Dems to court Left voters for.
Basically his ideas are automatically the good ideas, and since Harris isn’t gonna do the exact same thing as him that means she’ll be bad. Same logic in saying she’ll be bad for Israel, the southern border, etc.
Black text on white background. Posted by a no name Nazi on a Nazi platform. Reposted endlessly by no name nobodies on a no name platform. No sources. Smells like propaganda.
Really? You can’t bother to look up these completely true facts? Would rather call it a nazi conspiracy? That’s how this pipeline works: smug liberalism -> willful ignorance -> complicit with genocide.
Sorry, anyone still on Xitter is a Nazi and I can’t be fucked to go through Nazi garbage to determine what is real and what is Nazi propaganda.
Of course Isntreal is blocking aid to Gaza, they’ve been doing that since they bombed the border crossing at the very start of the genocide.
What I doubt is that this is somehow against gesticulates vaguely U.S. law, whatever the fuck that is even supposed to mean in this context. Or that the US is somehow obligated to stop munitions into Isntreal. Or that a soveirgn nation is somehow beholden to gesticulates vaguely U.S. law. Or that this could even be done without handing the election to Donnie on a silver platter. I can hear it now, “SEEEEEEE THEY HATE THE JOOOOOOOOS! I WILL CRUSH PALESTINE LIKE THE GOOD CHRISTIAN I AM”.
Sorry I don’t believe every bullshit thing I see on the internet.
Also, lmao at
Smug Liberalism
???
Genocide
The US needs to withdraw all support for Isntreal and hold war crime hearings for Netanyahoo, but not because some asshole on Xitter said so.
Hey, everyone who’s claiming Harris is going to be just as bad for Gaza as Trump will be: square this circle for me, would you?
They’re voting Jill Stein because Daddy Putin says vote splitting is a communist conspiracy
Jill Stein sold her morals to the highest bidder like a good capitalist.
Cornell West 2024!
The people who claim that are campaigning for trump.
Some because they like him. Some because they are accelerationist motherfuckers that want to see the world burn. Some because they are useful idiots.
But they are all spreading lies in service of Trump.
Well actually several Dem congressmen vote for stuff we don’t like therefore all Dems are as bad as Repubs and therefore they are worse than Repubs.
My sources are lemmy.ml and hexbear.
It’s black and white thinking and it’s stupid. There’s zero nuance to it.
That would require them being capable of critical thinking, and anyone willing to vote third party clearly lacks in that department.
I live in a state where my vote literally doesn’t matter. Think about that, genius.
Cool. Not everyone does and advocating protest voting can have an effect outside that of your individual vote. Your move, genius.
Critical thinking would lead you to vote third party.

Yeah, like I said, critical thinking is in short supply for that crowd.
That seems like a very roundabout way to say that in the present in the US, critical thinking leads you to not vote third party.
They have critical thinking skills and they’re the most brilliant people to ever grace this earth they’re just drawing the wrong conclusions using their grand magnificence!
Sure, but we all give them that specific piece of electoral information in nearly every thread.
your video reaches the wrong conclusion. values voting is the only way to stop party consolidation. the problem is strategic voting.

Removed, civility.
Gotta protect the children
They were never serious
The people employing bad arguments and/or who just turned 14 are not likely to be able to do that.
Yeah they’re probably still learning their basic geometry
Clearly none were paying attention in Civics class.
They didn’t pledge enough allegiance to the flag. Didn’t bootlick enough cops to support one for president.
Basically his ideas are automatically the good ideas, and since Harris isn’t gonna do the exact same thing as him that means she’ll be bad. Same logic in saying she’ll be bad for Israel, the southern border, etc.
Yes, genocide with a smile is super awesome. Much better. \s
Sure! The Muslim ban will be defeated in court again, and the Biden administration will not accept refugees from Gaza in any real number regardless.
Refugees from gaza are not currently accepted by the us, smart one.
They have no response to this, because it’s completely factual and they’re more concerned with Trump’s rhetoric than Biden’s actions.
Exactly. Meanwhile privileged ass college kids talking about voting for this guy because Biden wasn’t being a baby. Fucking idiots.
Wat
Harris is happy to keep killing them over there so they don’t come over here
Check the latest from the Biden admin: https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/0c608e65-1a84-4707-8124-06620a4c567c.png?thumbnail=1500&format=webp
