I voted for Trump in 2024, I regret it.

Gosh you’re going on ignore friend.

I don’t mind a Trump supporter that much but this is lunacy cult trash ^

Interesting how people have such low capacity to accept people with a different worldview. Yet left likes to brag how tolerant and all inclusive they are. But nevermind. Tcare

@Shodburrito Do you feel better now that you opened up and shared it?

[Schizophonia]

What exactly did Trump/Musk do wrong? Can you give some examples?

[NewKidOnTheBlock]

Well it does make you dumb. It's just so evident that this guy only cares about himself and his pockets, maybe if I had a teenage age brain I would be tempted to believe him but otherwise it wouldn't be possible. Honestly, as an American, the most inteligent thing you can do is either not vote or vote some third party. Your voting system is a scam anyway. That's what I would do if I was American. No voting or voting someone unpopular, depending on how I would feel that particuliar day

@NewKidOnTheBlock Then you just waste your vote which could be used against trump by voting democrats.

You didn't offer any worldview, despite being asked quite implicitly for one, you just said you voted for him because you were told to, a fairly suspicious response about a candidate that wants ethnic cleansing. He explicitly stated he doesn't really mind Trump supporters.

The left does not brag about tolerating worldviews about harming innocent people, they're quite openly and vocally opposed to those actually..... this is another very suspicious comment, a bad faith strawman that's frequently promoted by fascist propagandists.

The way I interpreted is that he chose to ignore me because my high opinion of Vivek was too much for him. I believe that constitutes as a low capacity for acceptance of different opinions.

I actually don't know what left stands for so maybe I made a mistake while making the second statement. I had the impression they brag themselves for acceptence and tolerance of different groups. If I'm wrong about that, then I take it back.

@Salvijus, do you fact-check your news sources?

Do you just take the sources and generally people at face value?

Ideally it would be best to do the political analysis all by yourself. But that is very time consuming, you would have to live and breathe politics every day. You'd have to be involved in that life fully to understand the full picture. I believe we have no choice but to rely on other people's analysis of the situation. And we all do this. We choose who's analysis to listen to based on who we believe are trustworthy. My personal judgement is that Vivek is the most trustworthy person so I chose to give weight to his analysis the most. It's my personal judgement. Everyone is going to have a different judgement on this. Why can't we just appreciate the differences in our views on this matter. Why someone who has a different view should be demonized and ostracized? That's the point I'm trying to make.

Trump's manipulations are so simple that they are ignored as if he's just being human.

According to who? How do we know this "who" is actually reliable? 

[Nemra]

My life experience taught me, generally, not to trust people, especially those who portray themselves as perfectly good. You can just feel it.

I think that in politics, actions should determine how good they are.

The ones that are being more truthful and honest.

That's good. And whatever conclusion you arrive at using your own discernment and intelligence is okay. That's how all people operate. We should be able to respect people's level of discernment and not try to mud them if it's different than others.

Yea, but it's a personal discernment thing. It's not an objective thing that everyone can agree upon.

@Salvijus, you wouldn't know who is being truthful if you don't personally observe stuff.

There are or could be things about which we will come to the same realization. However, the way we observe is likely different.

I had a feeling people are even slowly converting to trump's side even.

Yeah, I don't think so, pal. Nice try.

Venezuelans, Palestinians who voted for him are quite well documented of regretting it.

Even people that you would think would be loyal to him no matter what are regretting it.

Show evidence that people are "slowly converting" to his side, because nothing I've seen suggests it.

Focus on what ways you could be wrong.

Focus on if you are staying ignorant regardless of the facts being presented. Maybe you're not wrong, idk.

I know that it's not that easy.

How will you know one person is more truthful than the other? On what measure?
