if i elect an average right wing conservative (which is redundant) and they go on to do bad things, which is practically guaranteed, I would not feel better.

but what happens if you vote for someone and they end up winning?
oh shit. super bad guy. glad i never installed a fucking client. fuck everything about this.
i don’t trust it because it is very big on the design meaning to be “censorship resistant” and there are certain kinds of posts that people make that probably should be censored, and while i like that some tools exist to make pseudononymous, censorship-resistant communications possible (tor and i2p are good. freenet is fine imho), this one looks like a grift that has a neon sign saying “censorship resistant”… and i am sure that associating with those people will lead to encountering some of that material that probably should be censored.
peertube uses webtorrents to share bandwidth among users: if you’re watching a video, you share the data to other users at the same time.
There’s a good reason Lemmy doesn’t have videos.
peertube exists. it’s activitypub. lemmy is the reddit-like interface to activitypub. but the fediverse definitely has video. it even has live streaming through OwnCast (though i think peertube has livestreaming scheduled to be implemented as well)
edit: hey i just found a movie station!

but write in candidates can win. McDonald’s menu options are disanalogous to voting.
there will be more than two names on the ballot, and write ins are always allowed. this analogy doesn’t hold up.
this is dehumanizing to slaves
only a no vote is a vote for nobody. don’t spread misinformation.
a vote for any party is a vote against all other parties.
a vote for cornel west is a vote against trump.
claiming evidence exists is not the same as presenting that evidence.
I don’t understand why people mischaracterize him. he’s a good person. he’s smart.
a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence
that video illustrates the problem with strategic voting: it consolidates parties. the lesson you sohuld learn from it is that strategic voting is actually voting against your own interest.
surely you can understand that the ai was not giving a complete definition, and you don’t need to know that you are being dishonest in order to be engaging in bad faith. simply accusing others of lying about their own position is, itself, bad faith.
edit:
you seem to be alright with going along with copilot. when i asked
if someone tells me they’re voting for jill stein, can i say it’s because they either don’t understand that she can’t win or they don’t care who the real winner is? is it bad faith to assume a motivation like that?
it said
Characterizing someone’s vote as either a lack of understanding or indifference to the outcome without knowing their personal reasons could be considered an assumption made in bad faith. It suggests a negative judgment about their decision-making process without evidence.
In discussions, especially political ones, it’s important to approach others’ choices with an open mind and avoid making assumptions about their motivations. It’s more constructive and in good faith to ask questions and listen to their reasons for voting a certain way. This fosters a respectful exchange and understanding, rather than attributing motives that may not be accurate or fair.
