    As someone who is terminally on Lemmy you should do more to build a better culture of charitable interpretation of what people are saying instead of trying to fucking gestapo-up alleged Trump supporters and silence any criticism of your preferred candidate.

    It’s toxic shit

        To me it seems like they’re criticising her from the left and that’s valid criticism. I didn’t run a background check on them so maybe they aren’t. Maybe they won’t even vote.

        I’m not going to bully them until they leave, though.

        This community is extremely toxic. It’s no different than the politics subreddit.

        Keep punching left, guys. That’ll work.

          I’m not going to bully them until they leave either. I don’t even have that power. I’m not sure why you’re granting me abilities I don’t have.

            Ok fair you’re not the worst of them but you’re contributing to the toxicity at least somewhat. There’re worse examples actively harassing me and I took some of that out on you.

      No, Democrats are perfect and anyone who doesn’t love their constant failures at everything but funding genocide must be literally Trump.

        Careful! If any Democrat sees your snarky comment it’ll cause them not to vote or vote for Trump instead.

        We need a criticism non-proliferation treaty before it’s too late to contain this dangerous power.

          But only criticism from the left. Without criticism from the right, Democrats won’t know which principles they need to stop pretending to hold.
