Can’t wait for Blue MAGA to win so they can go to brunch and not do any form of direct action or mutual aid for 4 years while the genocides continue, then shit on leftists for not voting hard enough at the next election.
"We woulda won if it wasnt for you stinky rotten leftists voting third party!"
-Hilary Clinton (probably)
Not sure what you expect them to do about the Chinese genocide against the Uyghers, or the ongoing Darfur genocide. That said, it would be nice if they did would at least try something.
China is a bit confusing to me with religion. They officially are atheist, but permit nearly any religion as long as you don't attempt to convert people, or replace Chinese architecture and symbolism with religious symbolism. Except for local mythology of course, although it was banned in past years and only recently promoted by the government. Most interesting thing I read recently is that minors aren't allowed in religious buildings, presumably because they can't decide for themselves yet, but I might not understand the nuance of that law.
Thats all to say, I have no idea what's the right move for religion moving forward, just in general. I generally think its a bad thing but that could be an American perspective.
I also have no idea what should be done for the Uyghurs, and I'm not sure if I'm entirely convinced that limiting a cultures religion at all is by default cultural genocide.
I know nothing about darfur though, though it sounds familiar.
How to immediately give away the game. Try harder.
Right. Because we have all been so lucky to be in the receiving end of all the generous policies and the overwhelming selfless charity from those third party candidates!
I for one am overflowing with love and blissful ass-kissery for all the work those candidates have done for everyone- every year in between the elections!!!
Let me list all the things they’ve done for us all:
Yaaaaaaaay!
It's funny that I've never seen them address these types of replies.
I wish they'd just stay in the fucking hole that they crawl out of every 4 years...
Nope. They never do. But it is a fantastic way to shut them up.
Not every opinion you disagree with can just be dismissed as bots. The idea of blue MAGA is a perfectly legit criticism of the same dumbasses who months ago were screaming "VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO! BIDEN IS PERFECTLY MENTALLY COMPETENT AND THE GREATEST CANDIDATE TO EVER RUN, AND IF YOU SAY OTHERWISE, YOU'RE A CRYPTO-REPUBLICAN WHO REALLY WANTS TRUMP TO WIN!" whenever anyone expressed even the mildest criticism of the Democratic platform or reservations about Biden's ability to win the election.
Lemmy, particularly lemmy.world, is full of blue MAGA nonces who read a post saying, "I'll hold my nose and vote for Harris, but I really wish she would change her stance on X" and reply, "Now isn't the time for this divisive rhetoric, I can tell you're a Russian shill who wants Trump to win."
