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.

The tankies are the “left-wing” equivalent of these people. All in all they are eerily similar. They both support different forms of facism.

At least until he crooks, then they’ll try to make him a martyr. Expect a manufactured Regan style legacy.

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.

I stand by my statement that there are “approximately zero” bots on Lemmy, unless you want to include the occasional spammer or corporate shill, and even they are almost always quickly dispatched.

And there are reasons why I’m not inclined to take my government or their NGO partners at their word.

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?

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.

You need to find a better voting location. Mine has churros and Mt Dew.

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.
