Talk about voting against your own interests. Imagine if all this hype were true and Trump took Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona because of a Stein spoiler effect (or JFK jr or whatever other hypothetical). Can you imagine how dumb you’d feel as one of those voters, as you watched Trump rounding up “immigrants” in February 2025?
The problem is that if these people are voting for Jill Stein, then they are not actually voting for who they wish. Jill Stein is not the person who they think she is.
If she were to magically win the election, they’d by-and-large be extraordinarily disappointed in the result.
This is why misinformation and disinformation is so destructive in a democracy. The voters need to be properly informed.
Muslim Americans are idiots. So are Christian Americans, and atheist Americans, and African Americans, and European Americans. Americans are either stupid and delusional, or burnt out and apathetic. Americans who are aware of the world around them and engaged enough to do something about it are incredibly few and far between.
Having rules for this community isn’t about using them as a “weapon to shut us down,” but rather a way to foster genuine discussions, encourage diverse opinions, and prevent personal attacks or name-calling.
Friend, he called Muslim Americans “idiots.” That’s uncivil and not allowed. And I find it sad that you are defending a comment like that. Even tho you and I have our different opinions, I expected more from you.

They are free to vote for who they wish. Even if you don’t like that person. They can make their own decisions about that. As can you. And me.

So are you saying that Muslim-American’s aren’t smart enough to figure out for themselves who they should vote for and who they believe in?!
You don’t know that. You THINK that, but that’s your opinion.
They are properly informed, because they have the same access to news that you do. There is nothing that you are doing and/or reading that they can’t.
So YOU are smart enough to figure it out, but Muslim American’s are not? Is that what you are implying?!

Not cool, friend. Saying that “Muslim Americans are idiots” is not the way to make your point. Ewww… Reported for civility.
See, mods? This is how this poster views our civility rules. A weapon to shut us down so it can spew its opinions unopposed.

So a way to do all the things you aren’t doing? If this is a way to parody lib civility nonsense then you are doing a bang up job.
