        Nah, they’re just a downvote troll. Look at their history. Account created yesterday and already at -522 comment karma. This is why reddit ended up capping downvotes at -100 because idiots like that person used to love to make a game out of seeing who could get the most downvotes.

          Never really looked at it from that angle, almost seems a decent argument for removing visible downvotes all together. Should I not be as pissed at YT as I think I should be?

            Instead, hiding the downvotes makes troll comments look reasonable and even popular as they brigade a community to upvote their narrative. The average user has no way to combat or discourage it.

      RemindMe - 13 months. :)

      I’m not going to say Trump has NO path to victory, he does, but it won’t be a landslide. There are also a growing number of paths that would take him out of the race before the election even happens.

      Edit Pretending Trump has no path is partly how he won in 2016. No vote can be taken for granted.

      Bruh, even 2016 wasn’t a fucking landslide - he outright lost the popular vote, only getting in thanks to the electoral college.

      Imagine being such a sycophantic cuck that you are willing to publicly argue that some fuck, who wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire on the side of the road, is going to win in a landslide after already losing the popular vote twice.

      Especially on a post where that same dumbshit just told the rest of your cult members not to vote, and you all hang on his every word like it’s water in the fucking desert. I’d say this was a joke, but there ain’t nothing funny about it.

          It’s really funny. All those power phrases and one-upmanship games played by Trumpetts are like people who roll coal or drive loud muscle cars - people waving around their tiny-dick-insecurity energy for everyone to see, somehow convinced they’re hiding anything.

          Or all those conservatives obsessed with which consenting adult another consenting adult is sleeping with. Though there I’m pretty sure it’s just repressed jealousy because I can’t imagine giving that much of a fuck about an issue that I wasn’t deeply personally invested in.
