What republicans could they remind on lemmy? There are none and if there were most instances would (and have, exploding heads iirc) defed from theirs. Tbf, you don’t know whether or not they have an acct on truthsocial or even explodingheads and post inflammatory memes to them there where any of them would actually see it. Any “reminding” of republicans happening here is nothing more than a circle jerk everyone already agrees with, it’s just “preaching to the saved,” to steal an expression from religion, and unless you’re passing around a collection plate in the next few minutes preaching to the saved benefits exactly nothing.
Preaching to people to NOT vote is a very right-wing thing to do. Trying to get people who actually believe in democracy to essentially shit all over it like they do-
Like I asked the other poster, do you mind linking a few? I know you said you didn’t bookmark them, but surely if it’s as common as is being suggested it won’t take long or be too hard to find some.
I don’t know if you’re trolling. Half the memes/arguments/discussions on any thread involving US politics is between people abstaining / choosing lesser of two evils/ etc. It’s the one thing that’s discussed here 90% of the time
A bit late, oops. I didn’t go super far back, but I at worst saw someone explaining why people might not vote for Joe in the general, but not actively advocating for others to join them. You may not find the two to be all that different, but I consider them to be different at least.

Well… it’s fucking stupid.
Where exactly are people saying not to vote in the general? All I’m seeing is/were calls to vote undecided in the Michigan primary
Ok, OPs post is correct but I see plenty of users here talking about the general and abstaining. No, I did not bookmark the comments.

Odd request. Just check my post history. Half my comments are bickering with abstaining lefties.
I don’t see what’s odd about it, but I’ll check your post history later if you suggest there’s some there. I’ll report back later tomorrow probably

They’re all over the place here.
Do you mind linking a few? I’m not seeing those myself
I was referring to specifically this
