Conservatives have also in my experience been way more likely to say mildly veiled death threats, if that means anything to you.

At least the “guess you love genocide” is an attempt to persuade you about a political topic. It has absolutely nothing to do with “want you to hate yourself”. The “libtard” shit is precisely the topic here - just plain hate.

Not sure if you're aware that the scumbag you're attempting to converse with has been widely banned for being a sealion and troll. This is just one of their many alts. They spend most of their life just trying to piss people off. I think they get sexually aroused when they think they've pissed another person off.

Just a bizarre human, whose mission is to waste everyone's time and upset them. Literally never seen them interact any other way.

Definitely a concern trolling and “just asking questions” vibe.

[–] UniversalMonk -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How was I concern trolling or giving a just asking questions vibe? I posted an article, you responded and I responded. lol

[–] Zeppo 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because you act like you don’t understand reasonable perspectives.

[–] UniversalMonk -4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I do understand reasonable perspectives. I don't agree with yours though. And that's ok. We don't have to agree. You have your opinion, I have mine. It's over, man.

[–] Zeppo 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Disagreeing and understand aren’t the same things, though they can be related.

It’s over, man.

You're not going to change my mind. I appreciate and respect that you have your opinions. I just don't share them. All good, friend!

[–] UniversalMonk -4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

There seems to be a lot of projection in your statement.

Wow, you are still really really mad I voted third party, huh? Sorry, comrade, I'll continue to vote Socialist just like I did last election. No matter how mad it makes you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Because of scum like you, there likely won't be any more elections.

But I remember you lying (your fucking ass off, on purpose, for a specific reason) many many times about thinking Trump would lose by a landslide lmao

Meh, I didn't vote for him. I voted Socialist. Remember? Although, I really liked Jill Stein, I went Socialist.

And remember when you liked to tell everyone I lived in Russia and that I would disappear after the election? And remember when you offered people your program that you wrote to track me?

Maybe writing programs that track people on Lemmy--all because you're mad that they aren't voting for your candidate--isn't the best way to win over voters. Because I noticed that Trump won the electoral vote AND the popular vote.

What was the "specific reason" that I would lie about thinking that Trump would lose?

Oh, and I noticed something over in c/politcs on .world the last few days: I see LOTS of people talking about third parties. Like wanting to vote for them, or even starting them, and giving up on the democratic party, etc.

Man, I wonder who started that trend over there and who's behind all of that rallying over there right now? Any ideas on who that could be? Cuz sounds like things are really chaotic over there.

Oh well, with your keen instinct to try to silence anyone who disagrees with you, I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Thanks, friend!

We'll have to agree to disagree on that.

[–] Zeppo 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I don’t have to agree to anything, but okay. You could come up with some reasons why you feel that death threats, slurs and insults are less hateful.

It’s also notable that the “fuck you libtard” type of response is far more common than the “you love genocide”. A small handful of leftists act like that. Much more common is moderate left/US liberal people who politely engage in conversation. You can see that all over Lemmy and Reddit. Meanwhile, try going to Reddit’s /r conservative and criticize Trump, or even just repeat things he’s said that make him look bad. You’ll get insulted and banned quickly.

US liberals look down on certain groups for features they could change - being sexist, ignorant, violent, you know, typical hardcore Trump supporters. Hardcore Trump supporters look down on people for things they can’t change - being non-white, poor, or a woman.

I mean, just read the posts on /r/conservative or /r/conspiracy. Check out the racism and hatred of women, the poor and immigrants among those communities. Saying US liberals are hateful compared to MAGA people is perhaps one of the most absurd things anyone has ever told me.

Which was happening on Lemmy pre-election. A lot.

But you're right, you don't have to agree with me on anything. And I don't have to agree with you on anything. I have received more hate from liberals on Lemmy than I have from conservatives. And they were more hateful.

My personal experience. And that doesn't match your personal experience.

You know about banning. Probably lost count of how many accounts you get banned from for being a sealion and troll 🥰

[–] UniversalMonk -1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yep, all because I didn't support Harris, I voted Socialist, and I posted ACCURATE news articles about how the polls were showing Trump gaining on Harris, before she DID get decimated in the election. She lost both the popular and electoral votes!

Hmmm, funny how that works, isn't it?

And yet here I am, in spite of your little creepy program that you wrote and offered to people so they could stalk and downvote every comment I make.

How are ya, friend? I don't see you over in c/politcs much anymore. What happened? Oh! It's became a toxic hellhole because you all are so mad that you lost.

Here's the latest modlog to there: https://lemmy.world/c/politics

lol

And how "many accounts" have I been banned? I was banned on one account, universal monk (Socialist Mormon Satanist), on .world. What are these other accounts you speak of?

Here's the mod log of my banning, for everyone to see. I stand by everything I did and said: https://lemmy.world/modlog/1252?page=1&userId=9454261

And the news articles I posted, and got banned for, that you all thought was "fake propaganda" ended up being true. And they were from legit news sources.

You do realise that Trump lost electoral and popular vote, right?! Guess it wasn't so fake after all, huh?
