It wasn’t so much that people claimed Trump would be better. However, people claiming they would be equally bad because you can’t get worse than genocide were fucking EVERYWHERE. Every single thread, even threads not even tangentially related to Gaza or politics. They canvased every thread. And they’re still here.
Who on Lemmy was saying, “Trump will fix everything?” Where?

Let’s review:
Them: TRUNP WILL FIX EVERYTHING!
Me: No one said this.
Them: Wat? Pretty much everybody said this.
Me: Who on Lemmy was saying, “Trump will fix everything?” Where?
You: It wasn’t so much that people claimed Trump would be better.
Ok, thanks for agreeing with me, glad we cleared that up.
Are you under the impression that we’re only allowed to reply if we’re arguing directly with you?
No, but it seemed like you were trying to. I guess I was mistaken, in that case, I’m glad to have you backing up my position.
Yeah, I’m not really agreeing or disagreeing with either of you.
I think they exaggerated the “Trump will fix everything” when the general sentiment from the genocide Joe/ both sides crowd was “they’re equally bad”
And clearly, they aren’t equally bad. Trump is much much worse. And we’re seeing ample proof of that.
Yet, the genocide Joe people are still plugging their ears and yelling.
There were a few bots posting shit takes like that, like Ozma, but it isn’t something you see often over here.
I very occasionally saw something like that, and it generally didn’t get upvoted at all and was criticized by both sides.
