Why not?

I was talking about other posters, for starters. As for why that doesn’t lead to productive discussion, I’d answer human nature

I honestly do not understand you any longer.

This isn’t difficult.  You are so sure you are correct about everything you post you simply can’t understand, and really can’t deal with,  disagreement. For you, all who disagree are the dumbest posters on the board or we have changed into unrecognizable individuals.

I disagree with those who are objectively wrong. Not all are the dumbest posters on the board. Some are liars. Some have lost their way. The reason I don’t understand you is that you defend things you previously criticized and you, for whatever reason, defend the indefensible when it comes to Trump. I’ve never defended Republicans, Republican policies or Republican wrongdoing because I’m a Republican. I defended what was defensible and right. I think it’s not the same with you and I used to think we were the same in that regard.

Your view of right and wrong is not objective.  Nobody’s is.

To paraphrase a deceased politician whose name I don't recall at the moment - you're entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts. People here don't know the difference between facts and opinions. I'm sure I'm occasionally guilty of that myself, but I try hard not to mix opinions with facts.

Thats laudable and we all try to do that.  But remember also, fact selection, factual relevance, and conclusions from facts are all subjective.

I'm sure that I understand that very well. That's been essential to what I've done in my military and civilian careers.

I'm sorry, is this some kind of bizarro world? We've got posters here attacking Democrats for not taking it seriously when Trump rightfully pointed out that foreign governments want to interfere with our elections? Is this supposed to be some kind of performance art?

I'm starting to think MAGA is just one giant troll job. It has to be. So many 180s with a straight face.

This is genuinely stupid comment. All we need to do is go back to in person voting and for mail ballots count only those in the hands of the various entities by the close of business on Election Day.

Seems to me you'd have to go by the postmark.  I can't control the post office and make sure my ballot gets there.


There are 10 types of people in this world, those who know binary and those who don't.

This doesn't have to be a partisan issue. Stop listening to the politicians. 

2020 is six years ago. Let it go. 

But . . . what we should do w/r/t foreign interference and influence is always a germane question in a democracy, especially in the internet and social media age:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_electoral_intervention

People are unwilling to admit our elections aren’t secure because that would mean agreeing with Trump on something.  It’s that simple.  Accusing anyone wanting to discuss it of claiming that the election was stolen is a small mind’s way of shutting down meaningful discussion.

 

💯

@npt 

Exactly my point.  There are dozens of ways deliver a ballot.  Going by postmark is among the least secure and least reliable.  It is the easiest to corrupt the actual delivery.
