    You have a habit of leaving out important information, here let me get it for you:

    “Absolutely, yes. It was wrong, it was a criminal.act, it’s a violation of international law. At the same time, this war has been ginned up by the US and NATO expansion towards Russian Territory.

    She’s defending Putin’s actions, clearly.

      She’s defending Putin’s actions, clearly.

      I don’t see it that way. She said ““Absolutely, yes. It was wrong, it was a criminal act, it’s a violation of international law.” How do you see that as she is defending his actions?

      Her saying that the US and NATO sucks doesn’t support war.

      I’m not voting for her, so I don’t care. But you’re wrong.

        She didn’t say NATO and the US suck, she said they started it. You are either willfully misinterpreting this or are so disenfranchised from our current political climate that you’re ignoring serious red flags.

          She specifically said she this it’s wrong what Putin is doing, and this it’s against international law. You are either willfully misinterpreting this or are so disenfranchised from our current political climate that you’re ignoring serious red flags.

                  No, I’m contacting the person spreading it on the Fediverse, you.

                  So you don’t think certain types of news stories should be shared on the Fediverse then? So are you promoting censorship? Because you seem upset that I am posting news articles about third parties, but you are fine with the 1,000s of articles that are pro-Harris. Right?

                  So you would prefer I only post news that YOU agree with. Correct?

                    No, I think they should be shared without bias and you have a terrible track record just from the comments and posts I’ve seen of your’s. You’re the type of user to make an entire post about another user and then cut the parts out of your own wrongdoing, I saw that. So yeah, I have a problem with the way YOU present information to be biased towards your own opinion. You aren’t presenting information with the intent of sharing knowledge, you share things in a manipulative way that doesnt show the full details of the people you support.

          • While I personally disagree with this stance in this particular case, I think it’s reasonable to say on the one hand, A did wrong and A was bad, while also pointing out that it takes two to tango and that maybe there were some things that B could have done better.

            So to recap, I agree with Stein on A (“It was wrong, it was a criminal act, it’s a violation of international law.”) but disagree with Stein on B (“this war has been ginned up by the US and NATO expansion towards Russian Territory.”)

            In fact, I’m quite bothered here as Ukraine joining NATO doesn’t involve Russian Territory unless Ukraine itself is Russian Territory, which I simply cannot agree with.

        I’m not voting for her, so I don’t care.

        This genuinely surprises me. You hype up Stein a ton on Lemmy. Pretty much every pro-Stein post I see on here is posted by you. And you defend her doggedly in the comments. That seems like a lot of effort and emotional investment for a candidate you won’t be voting for.

          You hype up Stein a ton on Lemmy.

          I’m not hyping her up. I’m posting news articles. I’m actually voting Socialist Workers Party. I like Stein, but I’m not voting for her.
