You…clearly misunderstood my initial post, and that’s really funny.
My point isn’t that you shouldn’t care if they win or not. That’s absolutely ridiculous. My point is that you shouldn’t choose to vote for someone purely because they have a chance of winning, over someone that aligns better with your political views.
I personally care because most of my family is American and because Canadian politics often echo what’s going on in the U.S. Pierre Polievre wouldn’t be seeing as much success if he didn’t have Trump’s culture war nonsense to use as inspiration. A lot of people outside of America still care very much about U.S. politics because it does have an effect on global affairs.
Why are you in this thread if you’re not even American? This is obviously about the US elections.
Because Lemmy isn’t a US-only social network?
This post is obviously about US politics.
Ok?
Disregard these gatekeepers.
This is an online discussion forum for public discussions.
I see these comments around here, like wtf people getting policing what and where people are commenting.
Childish behavior.
It’s honestly a little embarrassing to see Lemmy struggle so much with this kind of thing. Even Reddit was never this bad…
You’re an embarrassment
People here actually care about the future of their country.
Which country do you seriously think this post is about?
Other people are entitled to have opinions about US system and participate in discussion as they see fit.
Not if they’re telling people what to do, or giving out misinformation they don’t.
Someone is trying to gatekeep, that’s for sure.

Sometimes I can’t believe this app is free…

I hear you on that.
