    I’ll never stop being cynically amused by the fact that the self-styled American patriots are letting the Russian government tell them how to vote.

      Because they love the Russian government. It looks just like their ideal government, just Protestant and English-speaking instead of Orthodox and Russian-speaking.

      I guess the anything in ‘anything to own the libs’ includes selling out your country and constitution to the highest bidder.

      Some people never learn the cool kid in school seldom acts on your behalf, usually theirs.

      So this is basically the point of federation isn’t it? So there can always be ‘bad guy’ instances that we never stop talking about? PvP social media?

        Oh, so you’re denying that you’ve ever denied or questioned the existence of Russian propaganda and/or bad actors?

        Okay.

        What’s this then? https://lemmy.world/comment/11978870

        And these ?

        Oh wait no, despite all these doubts you have, you seem to accept the existence of Russian propaganda in this comment:

        Hey, just off hand, if you wouldn’t mind finally answering this; are you pro-Russian? Do you support Putin? You claim to be American, but you can’t even say “I’m not pro-Russian”, no matter how many times we’ve engaged. Nor can you call Putler the pathetic little piglet he is. For obvious reasons. ;) Feel free to prove me wrong.

    How does a video of Haitian immigrants voting illegally versus legally look different? Are they wearing signs or maybe one of those “Hi! My name is…” stickers with “Illegally Voting Haitian Immigrant” written in? Or maybe it’s just obvious because they present passports written on the back of cereal boxes and the election worker is giving big comic winks and saying “sign here US citizen legally allowed to vote.” I guess it doesn’t matter what the video shows. It’s probably some Bigfoot jerky video with garbled audio with a caption saying “Haitian immigrants voting illegally.”

      I’m pretty sure the Haitans in the photo are not voting. I’ve never gotten gas station quality hot food when I’ve voted.

          Nice. There’s never a line so it’s not a big deal. And it’s not like you can choose anyways (election day)

      It doesn’t matter. The intended audience has already decided that they want to believe Trump and immigrants are bad and they vote illegally.

      Step 1. Record any random black person voting.
      Step 2. Immediately label them an illegal Haitian.
      Step 3. Disseminate to every conservative outlet.

    Is there a /noshitsherlock community yet?

    Illegal Immigrants cannot vote. No matter how much chuds want it to be true it just isnt. Hell we lock up natural born citizens for voting at the wrong fking location when they’re fully legal to vote. Our shit is stupidly hard locked down.

    I’m of the opinion that we should have switched to all digital a decade ago. Fuck it. Lets see those results in real time. But that would require our leaders to have enough modern knowledge about computing systems to be able to understand the basics of whats going on. These fkin’ clowns are all “DoeS tHE TikToK coNnEct t0 mY wIfi?” Like yeah Harold I’m sure you could shoe a horse like a mfer back during the civil war, now find your downloads folder for me.

    When do we finally decide that this hostile enemy action and act accordingly? Why do we not have our own army of internet warriors?
