Let's do an experiment

Whenever you see anyone urging a certain course of action online, ask yourself who stands to benefit the most. Trans people not voting = transphobes. Climate change denial = fossil fuel companies. It's always the same playbook.

What the hell? I've not heard that yet. What asinine reason are they peddling?

Everyone should vote, all the time. It's your right and duty. Everyone deserves a say.

You havent heard it for a reason, this guy is completely lying because a trans person told them theyre voting for someone else.
- Lol this is a follow-up to another meme in this community. You've invented a narrative about something you don't understand.
  Touch grass.
If it's happening, I imagine it's something along the lines of "Biden did bad things to trans people. If you vote for him, you don't support trans rights. And Trump is even worse! Don't vote/vote third party. " There are other issues where I've seen this argument, not specifically for trans folks, though.

If you're planning on voting for a rapist, someone with 34 felonies that paid a pornstar hush money from campaign funds for sex while his wife was at home pregnant, you should probably stay home clutching your pearls instead of voting.

How many people are actually advocating for non voting?

All I see on Lemmy is people begging for a candidate with a better shot at beating trump, and then they get screeched at that only Biden can stop trump because....

Well, they never give a reason why it has to be Biden.

How many people are actually advocating for non voting?
So, so many. PugJesus' and my history can attest to that.
- I looked at your history since you recommended it.
  I don't know why you wanted me to because it's not relevant to what we're talking about, but I did look at your post history like you asked.

It isn't enough for these people to cast the underprivileged into the fires, they won't be satisfied until they've convinced the underprivileged to throw themselves in as an act of holier than thou defiance

This guy is completely lying, no one told him to abstain from the general election, he was arguing with someone because they are voting third party.

There are people saying this? Ugh. What's the logic even? No need to take any mask off.

Lmao and you accused me of throwing a tantrum 😂😂😂

Getting so butthurt you make a whole other thread, drama queen much?

Thanks for not joking about suicide this time tho!

Look who couldn't resist showing up! Experiment complete.
I did it for for you, sweetie. For your sensitive little eyes 👶
- Experiment? Jeebus, you need to take your own advice from another thread and go massage some greenery my friend.
- Wow, do I have a fan?

This is going off the rails, with all sides telling each other not to vote. Locking as there's too much to mod here.
