If you find it acceptable to make such accusations against people with no regard to truth value, why should that behavior not be directed back at you?

When will you stop supporting genocide, ensign?

Or do you want to actually make an attempt at having a respectful conversation? Is that something you are capable of?

When will you stop supporting genocide, ensign?

I've never supported genocide.

[-] WamGams@lemmy.ca 0 points 6 months ago

Then are you going to engage in an adult conversation instead supporting genocide and deflecting by accusing others?

Because I am going to mirror your behavior here. The ball is fully in your court.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

I do not support genocide. If you want to talk about deflecting by accusing others:

By all means, help Trump get back into office.

This is you, deflecting from me saying that Biden will lose if he continues to support genocide by accusing me of being a trumpist.

[-] WamGams@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

It isn't deflection to point out the person you are ensuring Biden loses to supports genocide more than Biden does.

My stating that also doesn't make me pro-genocide. A person who isn't a coward would apologize for stating such a thing.

It isn’t deflection to point out the person you are ensuring Biden loses to supports genocide more than Biden does.

Saying that Biden will lose if he continues supporting genocide is not support for Trump.

My stating that also doesn’t make me pro-genocide.

You accused me of being a trumpist because I dared to say one of the reasons why Biden should stop supporting genocide.

A person who isn’t a coward would apologize for stating such a thing.

A person who isn't wrong doesn't need to.

Again, it is cowardly to claim people support genocide and not apologize when it is a lie.

You clearly are not capable of adult discussion, so to the block list you go along with other liars and cowards.

I love how centrists think announcing that they will no longer pollute your inbox with their disgusting genocide apologia is somehow a negative thing.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
