      My ballot had 3 options: Kamala Harris, Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy, Jr.

      Write-ins are not allowed in Indiana.

      Who should I have voted for?

          I’ve been told for months now by people like yourself that no one should vote for Biden and then for Harris.

          Now it’s suddenly “it’s up to you?”

                  Okay then, who should Hoosiers vote for? You said no one should vote for Harris.

                  That leaves Trump, Oliver and Kennedy.

                  Which of those three should no one vote for as well? Let’s do a process of elimination here and take it step by step.

                  I assume Kennedy is not an option here since he dropped out already, but he’s still on the ballot. Obviously, that’s essentially not voting and you’re suggesting that not voting is not a good choice.

                  So, that leaves Trump, the Republican and Oliver, the Libertarian.

                  Should no one vote for Trump?

                  "I will never, ever, EVER explicitly make a claim for a course of action, because then you’ll be able to refute my decision as stupid.

                  Instead I just want to hold my nose in the air over all of you sheeple and criticize and shame you for EVERY action, shaking my head and smirking like some kind of disingenous gaslighting machine. Happy Election Day!"

        You can just block .ml at an instance level and you’ll be better off for it and you can add Hexbear in there too.

          I didn’t see what you were responding to, but I’m very close to doing this. Yesterday I unsubbed from just about all the .ml communities I was subbed to. They’re impossible to talk to and have gotten incredibly nasty. They just start indignantly name-calling immediately, there’s no real engagement anymore. I consider myself to be extremely left wing, but I also live in the real world. They are insufferable.

            I’m blocking a bunch of .world communities and “power users” because of how toxic they are. The same stupid memes over and over insulting people who don’t want to vote for a pro-genocide candidate, condescending attitudes, calling people tankies/bots/shills/Russians etc. I don’t consider that “real engagement”. I consider it self-congratulatory preaching to the choir. No wonder some people are hostile to that kind of nonsense.

              This is exactly the kind of crap I’m talking about. You are literally the first and only person who has ever called me right wing, because I objectively and genuinely hold far left beliefs, and I always have. You don’t know me, and since you obviously don’t want to engage in a good faith conversation, your trolling means nothing to me.

                A very good number of people that claim they are left wing are in fact liberals in disguise. They think they are left wing because they liked Bernie, or believe that Democrats are left wing. A majority of those on the actual left do not identify as ‘left’ they usually identify as socialist, communist, anarchist, etc. rarely left wing.

                And the ones that are usually nasty in their responses are those faux left Democrats that get triggered when they hear something they don’t like.
