      Well, I got lambasted for not being American and having an opinion on the topic, and the person who did it got quite highly upvoted. What conclusion would you draw? Plus I also recognize your username and (while I’m not 100% sure) I’m pretty confident you are American too. And to my knowledge Americans made up the bulk of Lemmy. Seems like a safe assumption to make 🤷‍♂️

        I am a dual national and I am currently in Blackburn, Lancashire, UK.

        But I think that you have shown that you care much more about being right than you do about being understood, so I think I can move on.

          Why do people always love to project so much 🙄

          I made it explicitly clear I thought Trump was worse several times. I could not have been more clear if I had made a drawing. And I know that you realized that, because at one point your tone completely changed, and you got a lot less condescending and confrontational than you had been before. But you still can’t just say “my bad, sorry, I just had a knee-jerk reaction when you criticized the Dems”.
