I didn't vote for Trump, don't live in the US, wouldn't have voted for Trump, and am not a fascist, so I don't understand the objection. But even if I were any or all of those things, I would not require your permission to post here.
It is worth noting that you are the one in this exchange seeking to establish authoritarian control.
- mindslight 10mo agoYou're supporting the actions of the regime and seemingly echoing a lot of their propaganda. For the purposes of my statement, this makes you a de facto Trumpist. Specifically, the problem is that you're railing directly against the assumptions that were set out to have a productive conversation. I am not "seeking to establish authoritarian control". I am pointing out that you are being disruptive to good-faith productive conversations. The only reason you seemingly responded to my initial comment was to engage in ideological battle. It's like when someone barges into a discussion about Python, asserting that Python sucks and everyone should use PHP instead. Regardless of whether they have a point or not, it's not particularly germane to conversation for the people who wanted to be talking about Python.
