Of course you were. And I saw you drag around a bit there too before you zoomed back out. I knew.

No, no, and of course I know exactly which bits you were zooming in on. And I saw your nervous look around and pretended to be completely focused on reading my own phone screen, all the time thinking “I know what he’s enjoying.”

I saw you on the bus. You zoomed right in, had a look at the detail, zoomed out, tapped and moved on to the next post. Yes I knew, I completely understand, I used to hide my excitement on public transport when I was a teenaged boy too. You do you. It’sOK.

I use duck duck go browser as my main and default browser, and I press the burn it all button regularly. It offers to exclude sites from the data purge if you log in, but for the three or so websites that I want to stay logged in to fill time, I just use Opera for them.

No, you are. Keep up.

How much time and effort do you spend on promoting Russian talking points in an average day or week?

The ceasefire deal Trump negotiated is such a transparent joke that he’s not even mentioning it.

Putin kindly agreed to a ceasefire that applied only to energy generating facilities, except that Ukraine is the only one attacking energy infrastructure right now because Russia already destroyed all of the Ukrainian ones that aren’t nuclear (and already decided not to bomb the nuclear ones, presumably because Chernobyl wasn’t all that much fun for the region).

So the great ceasefire deal that weak-ass Trump negotiated? That Ukraine stops it’s current attacks on Russian energy plants and Russia changes exactly NOTHING.

Trump absolutely does not stress that his grand dealmaker act doesn’t work with his boss, who of course sees right through him, because he made Diaper Don, the Bully’s BJ Boy the way he is.

Ah yes, a website I’ve never heard of before. Much more convincing. /s.

I mean, how convinced are you by the evidence “someone wrote it on a webpage you never heard of”?

Boris is the biggest liar in British political history by a country mile, and his nonsense takes on the past to justify his actions mean nothing. To Boris, thinking about whether a statement is true or not before using it for political ends is an insane waste of time and effort and needlessly hampers your argument.

So to anyone who is in the last bit familiar about how Boris operates, quoting him to try to establish what’s true is like asking a random number generator what your age is. I mean, it might be right, but the fact that it’s the random number generator that said it is a pathetically weak argument.

You’re so full of shit.

The fascists winning doesn’t trouble you at all, though, which is weird for a leftist, no? I smell republicans in disguise.

Your greater evil rhetoric puts the actual fascists in charge of America. Did you read project 2025 yet? Or even a summary?

I agree that you didn’t admit it.

Like I said, you’re an accelerationist who wants it to get as bad as possible as far as possible because you think revolution will come sooner that way, and you don’t care how bad the world gets in the meanwhile.

Well, unlike you, I can tell the difference between Hitler and the democratic party. You’re so full of false equivalence.

If they move left, you’ll still not vote for them because you’re too pure to compromise and you will forever throw your supposedly leftist ideals on the dustbin of throwing what tiny tiny tiny power you have away and convincing anyone that shares your views to do the same.

They move right when they lose. So that they can win again.

Well, you go ahead and continue to push the democrats right then. I can’t convince you. The outcome of the election will definitely convince the democrats. And I can tell you they will listen to the republican voters before they log on to lemmy.ml because there’s so many more of them and they actually vote in a way that affects the outcome.

You’ve tied yourself into all kinds of intricate knots. It’s simple. If you convince all the people who care about Gaza not to vote, things get worse for Gaza.

If only right wing people vote, only right wing policies will win.

If only right wing policies win, only right wing policies will be offered.

You seem to think that letting the more genocidal republicans win would encourage the democrats to be less genocidal, which is bizarre.

They move right when they lose to compete with the republicans because the republicans win with a right wing strategy.

If the democrats won all the time, the republicans would have to move left just to regain power, and the Overton window would move left.

Not voting for the democrats in order to move them left is insanity. They will respond by copying the more successful electoral strategy.
