Lol @Zacheryah i don’t understand why people insulting a politician bothers you so much
It's not politicians but people or assumed people voting for other politicians.

I'll repeat, I'm libertarian minded and not a fan of authoritarian Trump.

But I literally can't say anything positive or I get attacked. And I tend to defend underdogs if I feel the critique isn't balanced.

I was at my desk keeping an eye on calibrations running and the ballot, untill suddenly a very large boost came with nothing for trump. Could be its debunked in a way but it's odd and I'd understand if they recount
Twitter flagged those tweets as potentially fake news, then the original tweet with that 120k (100%) for Biden got deleted and reinstated with the correct figures on. Storm in a tea cup.

Sorry but a general trump voter is an uneducated retard, who happens to be antivaxer, wears a mask under the nose and shouts in a peaceful conversation.

So thank God mojor cities are voting in the right direction.
That's like 15-20% of the voterbase.

Same like the extreme left progressive Marxist idiots who make out similar numbers of the democratic party.

Who actively try to prohibit any right wing speaker from doing so, and disrupt lectures.


Sadly. They are the face of both party's.


What we need is 'the soft reasonable left' like Stephen Fry calls it, and the center right, as Peterson defines them.

No extremes.

I think the weirdo left can be bad too. The problem is that Donald is very polarizing. You could say that’s because of the party going a certain direction, but either way, it’s a recipe for disaster, especially long term

Trump thinks he can just claim state victories before votes finishing being counted. :rofl:

@Bjerknes

You okay with this? Deliberately undermining the election and democratic process here.

I know some of the other republican hyper-partisan clowns on Tuz will support this shit.
I've said before I'm not a fan of Trump's antics on Twitter, but I don't think this is undermining the election when nobody can submit any new votes. If there is something reasonable to contest, then contest it. If not, move on.

someone will win and you’ll still be able to breathe

so take a breath
Regardless of that, there's a lot to do long-term. This is a very fractured nation. IF Biden wins, which obviously I hope he does, and he can't bridge that gap in any meaningful way then I'm not very confident in the future.

Or they're just retards who are worried about what the other side brings to the table.

Per your previous post, the one jump in Biden votes in Michigan Was a clerical error regarding a single county. They put an extra zero accidentally on the end, turning ~13k into ~130k or whatever it was. Was very quickly corrected and the GOP guy from Texas who called attention to it retracted his statement. Still somehow spreading like wildfire through conservative social media. Here is a Detroit local press on it: https://www.freep.com/story/news/po...s-mail-absentee-hour-count-update/6161367002/

Second, I’m not going to mention names. I wasn’t referring to you. It’s irrelevant if they are Tuz members or people in general really. I find it sad when people meme post nonsense, and basically cultish fan fiction to defend the most egregious actions of daft lunatic like Trump because of extreme partisanship and seeing the other side as the enemy. Myself, I think Biden is a demented old man who has no place running a country, but I think Trump is far worse. I have my issues with Trudeau here in Canada, (so ethically challenged and super obnoxious identity politicking :rofl: ) even if on the whole I think he’s actually done a pretty good job policy and platform wise in staying relatively central. No one should be immune from criticism

Lastly, while I’m not libertarian in the slightest, as I find its biggest proponents generally advocating for something that in practice would look more like medieval feudalism than a system of modern governance with a thriving middle class and a society that looks after the most vulnerable... I still do agree with you 100% on the “soft reasonable left” and the Center right being exactly what is most needed to end the current insanity in politics. The lunatic fringe has increasingly become the face of both parties which is a depressing state of affairs.

This isn’t just on twitter though. He’s declared victory, had his surrogates declare victory, etc. He is desperately stoking the fires of civil unrest for his own petty, narcissism and egotism. It’s rather unhinged. No other way to really look at it.

It may come to nothing in the end, I hope that’s the case certainly. But given the state of things, such outright lies and fabrications from him and Giuliani amongst others is a rather dangerous game to play.

we’re always going to be divided on some level
