It’s very much both. Across the board, dem presidents hardly do anything to oppose republicans or follow through on campaign promises

If by kinda you mean “not” then sure

I hope you think biden being the least stinky of a bunch of piles of shit doesn’t mean he’s good cx

They are real Christians. This isn’t the middle ages, you can’t just call every sect of Christianity but your own heretics. That’s a cop-out so you can keep being Christian without feeling bad about what you have in common with them. They’re just as Christian as you, and half hearted gatekeeping doesn’t do any more to stop them or help innocent people than thoughts and prayers. If you’re gonna try and gatekeep Christianity as only the cool peace and love parts of the bible and not the murder and hate and rape and petty divine punishments that make up the other 80% of it, at least actually try to live like Christ and go out and do some charity and volunteer work and protest the fascism conservatives are doing in god’s name

Why do you assume it’s not nefarious? This is literally Trump and the GOP we’re talking about, did him trying to bribe governors for votes make you trust him more or something?

My demons are trump and assholes like you who endlessly defend him and his fascism. I hope I get to do some wrestling too :3

He lost. Get over it :3

Does it feel good putting this much effort into defending Donnie? Do you feel superior to everyone else bc you ignore obvious signs of election fraud and tampering? Or are you under the impression if you start kissing ass now he won’t deport or kill you?

Didn’t you know? If dems called out trump for stealing the election, they’d be no better than him 😇

/s yall need to get your heads out of your asses, the election was clearly stolen and pretending otherwise won’t save you from trump or make you a superior person

Considering how much trump and his supporters tried to steal the election last time around, this almost certainly means something, and we’d be idiots to ignore it

You didn’t read the article did you? Or even the snopes “correction” of it? Pls do that before discounting it as fake, being wilfully ignorant about this does nobody any good

“The election wasn’t stolen! And if it was then it actually didn’t matter and he would’ve won fairly anyway”

What is your point here? Why are you so intent on making sure nobody discusses the evidence that trump stole the election? And why are you so intent on trying (and failing) to debunk it?

Also I 1000000 percent trust an expert on voting machines over a mod of a random lemmy community. You’re gonna need more than your opinion on how one state went to debunk all of those bullet ballots my guy

I’d say the number of bullet ballots is evidence that something is almost certainly up that needs investigating. That’s not a normal occurrence

“partially debunking” here basically means “correcting numbers that were slightly too large and clarifying the explanation given is a hypothesis”. This is still suspicious as heck, especially given all the other ways republican politicians and voters and funders have tried to influence and tamper with the election

Who’s ready for MKUltra part 2?? :DDDDD

I mean opinion pieces are allowed here right? If not I can delete this ig, but if articles written by/with info provided by experts are allowed, then why did it matter what site it’s on? Tbh there is a good bit of speculation there, but the bullet ballots are very suspicious and really need to be investigated. Even the lower numbers found by Snopes are still well above normal. This isn’t baseless fearmongering, this is a big discrepancy that needs to be checked out imo

So the official stance is that sources from substack aren’t valid in this community for any reason?

Yee if this gets removed again I’ll just message the mods. I would understand the removal if it were a blatantly false claim or a wildly unreliable source, but it’s not

The main thing that’s bothering me as I read this is that they “debunk” Spoonamore’s claims on how many bullet ballots there were, but the numbers they come up with are still ridiculously high compared to average. Just because there aren’t as many as he said doesn’t mean the number isn’t suspicious as hell

Comparing this to right wing election denial in 2020 is disingenuous garbage. They had no evidence whatsoever of election fraud by their opponents, we do
