    “This applies to both sides” How very brave of you to call out the people who drive around with Harris trucks to Harris parties decked out in their Harris jackets and hats, trading AI generated pictures of sexy Harris.

    You know, those things that are real and really happen.

    Look dingbat, calling Trump and his ilk “weird” is not idolizing their opponents, it’s simply calling a spade a spade. If you’re too cowardly to stand up for what you believe in, don’t think trying to slip in a picture of a kitchen magnet is going to make it any better.

        A miniscule tiny handful of people doesn’t count. There is a total K-hive number of Maga cult in every big city. Not even in the same ballpark.

          So you at least admit it’s a problem on both sides, you’re just blind to scale. You’re better than most Dems this election cycle at least.

            Look, I’m not trying to cause a stink here, I just don’t understand what you’re getting at. Are you implying that the amount of Kamala stans is comparable to the amount of Trump stans? Or are you saying that because you can find at least one zealot for each party, this does technically apply to both parties?

              Either you’re sealioning or you’re purposefully misunderstanding, in either case either hope when Harris either loses or proves she’s more right wing than bush, you get deprogrammed and join us again.

    both sides

    lmao, there are only two sides. Of course. Just Democrats and Republicans. Nobody else. Bernie Sanders doesn’t even exist.

    “this applies to both sides” -🤓

    Kamala is many things (most of them bad), a cult leader isn’t one of them. Im all for dunking on Liberals (im a leftist), but that is just factually untrue.

    Maybe you should save this for the day after the election friend. People being delusional about how good Kamala will be is actually really good for us strategically at the moment.

      Any cause benefited by stupidity is not a good cause. And that does apply to both sides.

        For every cause, there exists some possible circumstance such that one or more individuals having a miscalculation would benefit that cause.

        Proof: Take desired result R. Assume there exists some person P who is opposed to R. Let there be some action that P can take such that R becomes impossible. If there are no downsides to this action, then R will only occur if P makes a miscalculation. ⬜

        Thus, if your maxim holds, then there is no such thing as a good cause.

        A discriminant that labels all causes as “bad” is not useful.

        Therefore, your maxim does not serve as a useful discriminant.

    Not really. Democrats “idolized” their president so much they basically forced him out of the race for being too old. This applies to one side: Republicans.

            The vast majority of sitting presidents run completely unopposed by their own party for re-election to a second term.

                  It is amazing how racist you people are and openly accept being, all because someone with a lot more money than you said a race is bad. In any case I hope you and all conservatives like you understand what you lose when you win.

    Not really. I don’t idolize ANY politicians and am happy to criticize even those I vote for when I think they aren’t doing it right. No Dem politician is selling $100k watches etc. because Dems won’t buy them.

      Apparently, Trump is donating a bridge to all his ultra-platinum preferred choice diamond club voters. If I didn’t dump all my money in Trump’s amazing social media project (some say the best social media company ever), I’d be first up!

    That’s an unfair comparison. On one hand you have the lowest of the low within society, someone willing to compromise any morality they might possess and sell themselves for a paltry sum of money, and on the other hand you have hard working strippers.
