Looks like the Democrats (and Lemmy users) didn’t have much luck with the tactic of labeling anyone who didn’t openly support Harris as Nazis, racists, or privileged.
And maybe banning every single person from communities for not being in love with her didn’t work out so well either. Oh well!
There are literally fireworks going off in my town right now! lol
I remember when a lot of people on Lemmy thought I wouldn’t be here after the election. I’m still here.
Hi, everyone! :)
Love me some victim mentality even in victory. At least you’re consistent
Nah, I’m not a victim. I’m celebrating democracy in action today. People stood up against the bullies. And won.
And even tho my candidate didn’t win, I admire all the people who stood up against the entitlement. And won.
I feel like I won, because I didn’t let you all bully me into voting for your candidate.
I hope you all do some soulsearching and realize that accusing someone of being a nazi just because they aren’t voting for your political party, is wrong. And it didn’t work.
Hope you’re well, friend.
I like the attitude of lumping in “you all” into one singular group that calls you a Nazi. Especially funny because I do not have a party in the USA.
You know if you think everyone is in the same group as the few bullies the world feels like it’s full of bullies. But that might not actually be factual.
Just my two cents, have a nice whatever time it is over the pond right now
Hey man, you started it by saying I had some victim mentality.
Also, it’s day here (11 a.m. right now) and it’s a glorious day. Some great snowfall too.
Thanks, friend! :)
See that’s what I meant though. Just because I am criticising one aspect of your post doesn’t mean I am someone who would call you a Nazi or that I am affiliated with people that would. I’m my own person.
Sure, but here in the US when when we say “you all” we don’t literally mean every single person. It’s a from of casual speech that means “a lot” or “most.”
Trust me, when I say a lot of people dislike me. In fact, some hated me so much that they said I had over 45,000 downvotes, wrote a program to track my every downvote, and then admins jumped in and agree that I was in the top three most downvoted people on Lemmy. My display name was Socialist Mormon Satanist, username was Universal Monk, but on a different instance.
Then I was banned from an instance. And they even made a special post about my banning in a c/politics community. In fact, as far as I can tell, it was the only non-political post in that community.
But I used their bullying and even put their specs in my profile.
So I came to this instance, and people from THAT instance followed me here to downvote a lot of stuff and send me nasty DM’s.
So when I say “you all” it has some meaning. But no, it’s not YOU specifically. ANd not, it’s not every single person on Lemmy. But it’s a lot.
Welcome to casual native US english language friend.
And wanna see what comments and posts I was banned for? Take a look: https://lemm.ee/modlog/5241?page=1&actionType=All&userId=14544853
Oh, and here is an entire community named after me, and with a graphic of me in the banner. The “UM” stand for Universal Monk. Which was my username. And take a look at the sidebar for the community, it says “No Universal Monk” lol https://lemm.ee/c/politics_no_um@lemmy.world
So yeah, my use of “you all” covers a lot of fucking people. And here we are. Trump wins. Looks like people spending all all their time dumping on me, could have used their time better in other pursuits! lololololol
I guess it just confused me that you used that wording in a thread where I am pretty much used to 1:1 communication. But it makes sense if you expect a lot of people to read these comments. Still feels like I was addressed with that since you were replying to my comment and the points I was making
