Jon Stewart examines the choice undecided voters are facing in the 2024 election: Kamala Harris, who has an impressive résumé and specific policy plans, versus Donald Trump, whose vision, consistency on issues, anti-labor ethos, and militaristic posturing are at odds with the caricature his followers have created for him.

    To me seems like you’re mainly interested in shushing your political opponents.

    From the overall sentiment, your only option, really, is to either imprison 40% of your population, if you’d eventually instate the same laws but on the national level instead of lemmy, or to solve matters in a civil war.

    I’d, frankly, would be very worried if I were you, and I’d spend my days trying to figure out a solution.

    You spend your days meeting the same people, going in a circle one-by-one, everyone in their turn says “trump bad” and the rest nods. Kind of an emotional support group.

      Way to out yourself as a piece of shit fascist! If you don’t agree that banning transphobes, homophobes, and literal traitors to our democracy is a good thing, fuck off!

      imprison 40% of your population

      Lol, Imagine actually thinking they have 40% of the general populations support. If it wasn’t for gerrymandering the GOP wouldn’t win shit here

      No, we comment on a forum about it. New to the internet?

          I’m not going to explain basic political theory to you, especially when I saw someone else already explain this to you

          If you’re too thick to understand polls, how they’re conducted, and what they represent: that’s on you and the school system that failed you

            I am sure I am the only one so far who used a “3-sigma-improbable”.

            Everyone else kept talking about electoral college, which means nothing in the context of a popular vote poll.

            To me it seems like you choose to ignore facts.

            Compared to you, I do understand a lot about polls, population samples, sampling methodologies, importance weighting, confidence intervals, and other related stuff. On a level way above high school.

            And I think it’s interesting that you likely talk in the same tone to all your political opponents while insinuating its their lack of education that is the problem. And, it does correlate. Your political opponents on average are less educated than your political supporters. And so, you using that when clearly misrepresenting the facts surely makes them feel like listening to your arguments and carefully considering them. After all, they come from someone better educated than them, yeah?

              Only when someone says blatantly wrong and/or stupid shit, like you

              makes them feel like listening to your arguments and carefully considering them

              Objectively, scientifically, we know that’s not what happens. I do it because you asswipes don’t deserve even the respect of basic human interaction until you accept basic human rights as such, and it’s funny to see you rage online

              Oh yeah? Well my level of understanding is above college so nyeh, I win. I can tell you’re full of shit from the smell of what’s coming out

                Look, you can’t even make a simple logical conjecture. Each of your messages has shown an utter inability of using simple first-order logic. And yet you claim to have a graduate degree in a math-related subject? Tell me more about the smell of what’s coming out.

                  I pointed out that your original point about trump supporters getting banned is because they break rules. I then pointed out that you were wrong for claiming 40% of Americans support him. Logic has had 0 to do with this discussion, but I like how you toss it in there to make yourself feel smart

                  And yet you claim to have a graduate degree in a math-related subject?

                  No, I claim to have above-college-level training in statistics, making fun of your “high school” comment. Your reading comprehension is fucking trash

        If you don’t agree that banning

        Yes, yes, once you come to power and become a benevolent dictator, you will purge like half of your countrymen in the name of the greater good and kindness.

          Homie so stupid he thinks that banning someone on a platform which one can freely join under a new name is in any way the same as the ethnic cleansing they want

          Took you forever to reply, then 2 separate replies to the same post imin rapid succession? Mods, make it permanent next time so they can see the harder
