  • I do see some older middle-aged women Trump supporters here, but most of the Trump supporters I see are the guys with the flags on their trucks and stuff.

  • What makes me think Trump will lose again is the issue of women's rights/abortion.

    I don’t think the people most affected by that are the ones answering poll questions, so I don't think their thoughts are being fully represented in the polls.

  • Not very difficult to one-up MAGA people. But she was badass for saying that and off-the-cuff like that. I still didn't vote for her, but props to her!

  • No clue, but you should def look into it and see what's up. Report it if necessary, but I'm assuming if it were illegal, the much bigger pockets of the Dem Party would have already looked into it.

  • And yet somehow you’re debt-free.

    I saved to buy my crappy car. I saved to buy my crappy bike. And I pay for school, one course at a time (which is why I still don't have a degree.) I took a job as a janitor so that I could work somewhere with tuition reimbursement. Networked my way up to teacher's aide. Pay is 10 cents more.

    And yet somehow you’re woke-free.

    What does that have to with anything about sexuality or being privileged?!

    You know, just because someone believes differently than you, doesn't make them privileged.

    I'm a biracial, bisexual, poor dude. Nothing about me is privileged. You make more money than me, I promise. Are you privileged?

  • How does that make me "privileged"?

    I'm not white. I'm not straight. I grew up in poverty. I'm not rich. I don't have a high-paying job. I don't have college education (yet). So tell me, how am I privileged?!

  • Let’s be clear—our very first interaction started with you insulting me by calling me an “edgelord,” which is a blatant provocation. As seen in your link: https://lemmy.world/comment/12909326

    You initiated the conversation by insulting me, and now you’re falsely accusing me of trolling when I was simply responding to your attack.

    You set the tone for that exchange, but you’re acting as if I’m the one in the wrong. It’s weird for you to insult someone and then play the victim when they respond.

    Do you think it’s acceptable to personally attack someone in your very first interaction with them, even tho they haven’t attacked you?!

    That’s your argument for calling me a troll? You’re saying I’m a troll because I responded to your unprovoked insult to me?! And I still didn’t personally attack you after that. lol

  • All my main poltical article postings go to just two communites, unless they are socialist-centric. Were you under the impression I post to others?

  • Thank you. We can't let the bullies intimidate or pressure us into silence or from doing what we believe is right. Thank you, friend! :)

  • Fair points! And that's where I'm at on it. If someone is gonna accuse me, then show me the link where I said something attacking or whatever.

    After I see the link, I have a better idea of why they are thinking something and I can either explain myself or realize my mistake, or agree to disagree.

    But just dropping the comic when I'm asking for proof, seems absurd to me. If they wanna drop the comic in their comment with the link, cool, but at least I need to know what specific instance they are referring to.

    Thank you!

  • Thank you! Because online we can just block someone. I was beginning to think I was crazy on thinking people were overusing it. So thanks, friend!

  • Refurbed bikes is always a good thing, but it's not really a new idea. I'd like to see more shops doing it though.

  • Yeah, I didn't know who he was until recently. I was falsely accused of being an alt of him a few times. They would just reply with "linkerbaan." But I thought it was some Swedish word for "ban" and they were saying I should be banned. lmao

    After looking him up today, I see that he would go way overboard on the attacks. So I don't even see how anyone would compare him to me.

    Even seeing that, I don't think he should have got banned from whole instance, seems to me community bans would be enough, but I'm sure he'll just alt up and come back on anyway. He seems, um, determined. lol

  • Ok, I didn't add onto my previous reply, because wasn't sure if you have seen it or not.

    So in another thread, someone is accusing me of sealioning right now. But I don't think this is the proper use of it. This doesn't seem to be what it is. I'm literally asking someone for proof of an accusation. And they aren't giving it and I get this cartoon instead.

    So are people just gonna say 'sealioning' anytime someone asks for proof or links now?!

    Seems a misuse of the term as I know it. https://lemmy.world/comment/12941934

  • No one cares what you share, they care about your obvious dishonesty in saying why you do it.

    Such as? What is the obvious dishonesty?

    Let me guess; me asking that question is "sealioning," right? Is this where you are gonna reply with the sea lion comic?

  • So I am reading it, and I guess I am dull, but the description sounds like just "trolling" would work. And I look at the cartoon, and I don't see the sea lion as being ingenious. I mean, the dude brought it up, the sea lion is calling him out on it.

    So the fact I don't get it, even after the toon, explains how I got in trouble for sealioning because the comic doesn't seem like the seal is the bad guy. But the description is just trolling. So I don't know the reason for the new term. I think trolling suffices.

    EDIT: Fuck. Now everyone is going to think I'm sealioning because of this comment, aren't they? lol sigh...

  • I disagree. But I don't think you should be upset. Trump isn't going to win anyway.

  • If I wanted Trump to win, I would have voted for him.
