"Transracial-Mormon", I already have massive problems with the LDS church and "transracialism", but to claim to be "transracial" in one of the most racist church in the US? Cmon.

Which race are you trying to transition into?

I have been posting my real views and opinions

If these are your real views, then I am dreadfully sorry to have engaged with you.

Why would I get banned for spam?

Because you've posted 1200 posts or comments in two weeks, that's about 10 an hour for 14 days straight. Almost all of those comments were multiple paragraphs. Making the exact same talking points and ignoring every time someone refutes you.

And calling someone in this sub, a "troll," is against the rules and deemed uncivil. Please keep your replies to me civil.

Oops didn't know that, but looks like being bad faith and spamming is against the rules too.

So do you support and respect my right to have an opinion that is different than yours?

Sure if your opinion doesn't directly lead to the rise of fascism. Oh wait, you repeatedly post leftist third party advocacy in the middle of the election to decide Fascism or Democracy? No I don't respect that opinion and seemingly almost no one here does, that's why your hundreds of posts and comments on your two week old account have been down voted to hell.

Do you think all Republicans are fascists?

Anyone who still supports Trump after a decade of his rhetoric and actions is a Fascist. I repeat again:

Have you heard none of the Republican rhetoric on gay people this past decade? Have you heard none of the Republican rhetoric on trans people this last decade? Have you heard none of the Republican rhetoric on immigrants this past decade? Have you heard none of the Republican rhetoric on Muslims this past decade? Did you not see the last Republican president try desperately to overturn the results of a free and fair election before finally inciting an insurrection? Did you not hear him say he'll be a dictator and suspend the constitution next time if elected?

Nice job ignoring me pointing out your bad faith argument by the way.

No, I was pointing out the hypocrisy that's being shown in people who use that argument

Bullshit, there's nothing in that comment to indicate it was sarcasm, and the "I'm pulling from Republicans too but that doesn't fit your narrative" defence goes directly against what you're now saying.

I respect and support your right to an opinion

There were once people who had the opinion that it was moral to own other people. There were once people who had the opinion that other people should be marched into camps to be gassed and burned. Not all opinions are equal, and some opinions, such as those, deserve to be called abhorrent and fascist.

is half of the country "fascists" now? lol

There are some Republicans who still respect America's institutions, such as Pence and Romney, but they've been effectively expelled from the party. Trumpian Fascism now rules the Republican base by a majority, you just need to look at their primary results this year to see that's the case.

No, I don't believe in it. I was using the argument that you all throw at me every single day

So you were using an argument you don't even believe just to try and win an argument because you can't defend your real position? That's incredibly bad faith.

when it happens to the Republicans, just not when it happens to YOUR party

Yes, literally anything that breaks voters from the Republican party is good, and everything that breaks voters away from Democrats is bad. That's because the Republicans are full of fascists hell bent on destroying American democracy, and the Democrats are the only credible thing standing against them.

And libertarians in effect would take votes AWAY from trump

Oh so you do believe in spoiler candidates? What's your defense for constant third party and green party advocacy if you know it's a statistical fact that spoiler effect exists?

If they stop alienating the left and everyone else who's vehemently against genocide, the people in the ideological sliver between the most conservative Democrats and the least conservative MAGA cult members become electorally irrelevant.

While I wish that were true, it's simply not, there's still more movable "moderates" in between Democrats and MAGA for them to matter massively electorally, and still far far too few leftist Democratic voters for them to have to listen to.

Technically three if you count Shebaa Farms but that ones slightly more complicated than the standard Israeli occupations.

Biden did not appear until 10.26pm Chicago time – which was 11.26pm in New York and Washington.

It was actually after 10pm when he spoke at the DNC.
