I feel the same way he does when it comes to insults I have received for not voting for Harris. The grief and hate I got was way worse from Dems than Republicans (I didn't vote Trump either), especially here on Lemmy.
From the article:
But his initial revelation did receive some backlash.
'You are a dumba**,' one X user wrote.
Conservatives, he said, were more tolerant.
Bach wrote: 'I've never experienced such overwhelming kindness, understanding, and encouragement as I have from supporters of President Trump in the past 24 hours.
'And I've never faced such vicious personal attacks, name-calling, and insults—intended to wound, shame, and silence—as I have from Leftists in the same time frame.'
So you don't like insults but voted for the guy that called Mexicans rapists and claimed immigrants eat cats and dogs? No wonder people are insulting you.
Do you mean me personally? Or the guy in the article?
Because to clarify if you meant me personally: I didn't vote for Trump. Never have. Never would.
People were insulting me because I voted Socialist. So third party. So Dems hated me AND MAGA repubs hated me. Both sides were pissed off at me because I wasn't voting for their person. lol
Which as we now know after the election results, didn't affect the outcome at all. Because even if every single person who voted third party, would have voted for Harris instead, she still would have lost. That's how big the margin of loss was.
If Bernie would have ran, I would have voted for him tho.
