      Each side accusing the other of being communism is peak American politics.

      Misinformation is peak American politics. You can see Kamala Harris’s direct quote in the comments on this post, and see with one hundred percent clarity that she said nothing even vaguely related to the smear headline.

        I think even if people knew the quote they would still tell her to shut up and go away because most Americans are done with her.

          You’ve demonstrated how effective the attack is.

          You’re more inclined to aid and abet the misleading headline than call it into question.

          This isn’t me attempting to browbeat you into resisting misinformation, but to point out how easily it slips past people’s filters.

            People have hated her since she dropped the “he’s weird” meme to felatiate the DNC.

            That’s unironically about when her campaign started going downhill.

            Then they hated her more after she made it clear she intended to support a genocide.

            These days people want her gone, to retire. She failed and we want a representative of the people.

      And peak Lemmy is people presuming a Howard university grad who has a JD is not aware of what communism is and isn’t comparing him to a “communist dictator” because MAGA folks know communism=bad.
