  • I’m sorry don’t you people have literal camps for sick and undesirable people?

    i’m gonna go ahead and say no and hedge my bet by saying i have no fucking idea what you’re talking about so you may be asking about something like the asylum processing centres, which are a necessary evil that yes we do particularly poorly but every country has - in fact i believe, not that it’s a competition for “worst”, but your new president who you just let come to power implemented some of the worst camps for brown people and separated children from their parents, so glass houses and all that

    Who you vote for is who you vote for. This is a basic concept you’ve failed to learn.

    whilst that’s true, it’s irrelevant… your vote for a 3rd party candidate in FPTP like the US has means you may as well have used your ballot as toilet paper




  • normal /nôr′məl/

    adjective

    1. Conforming with, adhering to, or constituting a norm, standard, pattern, level, or type; typical. “normal room temperature; one’s normal weight; normal diplomatic relations.”
    2. Functioning or occurring in a natural way; lacking observable abnormalities or deficiencies. Relating to or designating the normality of a solution.

    definition 3 is not relevant, but i assume you’d agree that none of those definitions that were listed have specific statistical meanings

    normal is not a useful statistical term: it does not mean average in any way - mean, median, mode, etc… normal is, in a social context, more likely to be interpreted to mean “Functioning or occurring in a natural way; lacking observable abnormalities or deficiencies”, so i think you’d have to admit being described as “not normal” would piss some people off

    please adjust your language



  • mate, i live in australia and i vote for our leftist parties… the fact that you call me “right wing” is absolutely laughable

    i didn’t vote in your election, but your countries’ choices effect me significantly

    YOUR choices that actually had any chance of having any effect were genocide or more genocide + erosion of human rights + fascism… you chose to not vote against the latter, and that’s all there is to it. your inaction will cause lives to be lost and human rights to be eroded. you can say you voted 3rd party for some future effect, and that’s even an acceptable position! but don’t fucking act like that decision didn’t help trump come to power (because trump got elected; your choice contributed to that outcome) and more people in the next 4 years will absolutely die because of it

    at least know it, admit it, and own it



  • there was no third choice. you were always going to get kamala or trump: that’s reality. your third choice led to trump. congratulations; that’s going to be real good for your genocide

    at least be honest about it: if you didn’t vote, or voted third party then your choice wasn’t to get that party in power; it was to send a message. that message is now at best going to be acted upon in 4 years time. your “third choice” realistically resulted in sacrificing palestinian, ukrainian, and american women’s lives in the hope that the democrats will be better next time. if that’s what you wanted, well, congrats i guess we will see if it worked… but the cost for your choice is going to be incredibly high
