Hmm.. I wonder why a certain user who’s been posting non-stop about third-party candidates for the entire lifespan of their account chose to ignore this particular article. One would assume it’s important for the voting public to know about this, no?

Here, I'll channel my energy into a representative comment so you don't feel left out.

"I'm not voting for her. You're free to vote for whoever you want."

"I didn't write the article."

<insert 40 paragraph spiel about fairness and lemmy always attacking them boo hoo>

You forgot to call me “friend” and channel punchable face energy with one of these 🤗 but I’ll give you an A for effort.

Thanks! :-)

Who are you referring to? I'm debating some "Harris needs to earn my vote. So it's her fault if Trump wins." idiots right now.

Unfortunately if I name this person there’s a good likelihood this discussion gets removed since the rules prohibit calling out bad faith actors, even the painstakingly obvious ones. So I’ll leave you with this: you needn’t look far to find that which you seek.

I don’t know about you, but I’m saving this post for future citations.

How is he still alive? He has been an annoying public figure since the 80s.

Dem think-tank funded healthcare.

[-] bazus1@lemmy.world 16 points 2 hours ago

Best endorsement dems could hope for, really.

[-] GlobalCompatriot@lemm.ee 5 points 1 hour ago

Not quite the same impact as endorsements from war criminals.

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago

True, but not many people have lead what used to be the largest terrorist organization in the US.

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 4 points 27 minutes ago

David Duke ran the Portland Police Bureau!?

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 2 points 7 minutes ago

The KKK was the largest terrorist organization in the US by any standard.

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 minutes ago

It does kind of depend on how you classify various police departments and whether they're considered independent groups or cells under a single umbrella organization. But then again, in its heyday, the Venn diagram of the police and the KKK had quite a lot of overlap.
