The Libertarian candidate running for a Front Range Colorado congressional seat is dropping out and backing the Republican contender in a move that could bolster the GOP’s chances of flipping…
I’m interested in third parties and what motivates them to challenge the duopoly, which is why I created and mod a community called “Third Party News.”
And for the record, in addition to posting Green and Socialist articles, which some believe take votes away from Democrats, I also post Libertarian articles, which many think take votes from Republicans.
To imply that I’m pro-Trump or pro-Republican is absurd, especially when I’ve created and modded a Socialist community, where I’ve posted over 300 comments.
And just so ya know: Socialists despise Trump even more than Democrats.
Do you really believe I’d fake-run an entire Socialist community, even posting my collection of fucking antique socialist campaign pins, all just to post third-party articles in c/politics and somehow plan a lead to a Trump victory?
The majority of Lemmy users are staunch Democrats, so there’s no way an article I post is suddenly going to turn them into third-party supporters. And let’s not forget, the articles I post are from news outlets with far wider reach than Lemmy. Why anyone thinks I’m on some grand mission to sway voters here, of all places, is beyond me.
I’m gonna be transparent with you. I think you are so fucking pissed that I am not voting for Harris, that you automatically default to “If it’s not Harris, then the dude is a Trumper.” Yeah, that’s what I think you think.
Check my post history; the vast majority of what I post is Socialist content.

Many many people have done SOOOO much more than this for that exact reason. A lot of them would even bother to have an account more than 3 months before election day!
I already know your thoughts. In fact you’ve had a few comments removed. And you’ve been banned from the World News comm for your comments.
But as I’ve mentioned several times, I believe you and I should focus on discussing the content of the articles posted from here on out, in order to keep with the spirit of this community. I feel that you get too personal in your attacks. Thank you!
Literally everyone gets banned from .ml’s world news for mentioning anything even vaguely, remotely anti China or anti Russia. That’s not the epic own you think it is, worldnews and honestly most of .ml is a cesspool of bad faith moderation.
It’s just as epic as when the poster showed a screenshot of a ban from a community I’ve never posted to and didn’t even know existed until I saw the screenshot. I wasn’t even notified of the ban.
In the screenshot I shared, there’s actual proof he posted there, unlike his screenshot of my info. Plus, some of his comments to me in this community have been removed for lack of civility today, as the screenshot shows.
Why do you keep claiming that you need to have posted on or have heard of a fediverse instance to be banned from it? Does it somehow “not count” if the person who was appalled by your posts saw them from another instance? Do you have other arbitrary criteria? It’s a really weird defense.
You’re either pretending not to understand that federation exists, or you truly somehow invested a thousand hours into a platform you’re clueless about.
Looks like they saw a bunch of your posts, banned you from the instance for “toxicity” and that prevented anything new from you from federating to their instance. Not too difficult to fathom.
I’m not banned from technology@Lemmy.world. I’ve never heard, nor have I ever posted to a place called dumvee. So I don’t care that I’m banned from there. :)
None of that has nothing to do with this community or this article.

LMAO, you think I care that you permabanned me from your own Lemmy instance? I’ve never even posted there and never would. You’ve done me a favor by banning me from your echo chamber. Thanks for that! :)
Oh, and guess what? I’ve just blocked you! You’ve had your chance to focus on the content of the articles, but instead, you resort to personal attacks, as shown by the comments removed from this community and your ban from World News.
I know you’ll use a different username to keep coming after me, but guess what? I don’t care. Byeeeee :)
Yes they are public, and as looking at that proves, I have never even posted to that community.
And my posting history proves that as well.
Do you have any proof that I’ve posted to that community?
As I learned from some of the tech people in the tech sub, it was looked at and there are many people banned from that sub with no explanation. If you can find any posts that I have made to that community, be sure to update me!
In the meantime, I believe we should focus on discussing the content of the articles posted from here on out, in order to keep with the spirit of this community. Thank you!

Do you mean the post that was removed for breaking rules? The one that attracted a lot of downvotes and a few people dunking on you for obviously being butthurt about something no one has, or owes, an explanation for?
there are many people banned from that sub with no explanation.
Two. It was two people. Lol
I have noticed that it really gets under your skin that you were banned from an entire instance for toxicity. Maybe you can do the research instead of demanding a stranger find out why an admin in the fediverse took the time to specifically ban you and then write “toxic” as the reason. I don’t get paid by you to do this research but maybe you can send me a few hundred USD to do so? In the meantime, if you don’t want to discuss it, I suggest you not bring the issue up again. Thank you!
Do you mean the post that was removed for breaking rules?
Yep. And the rule I broke was the rule that said “no posts asking for technical help.” Which is my bad because I didn’t read the sidebar before posting.
The one that attracted a lot of downvotes
No, the one that attracted upvotes and supporters saying that your screenshot indeed showed no proof of my ever having posted to the sub I was banned from. I’m surprised you don’t remember, because you got into an argument with one of the posters who supported me. Do you remember?

Under my skin?! hahahaha I was banned from a place I never visited, posted on, or even knew existed. LMAO
So any samples of posts I made to that place? Funny how there are zero instances of me posting to that place in my comment history. Hmmm…
But as I’ve mentioned several times, I believe we should focus on discussing the content of the articles posted from here on out, in order to keep with the spirit of this community. Thank you!
I don’t know what you mean. You’re still not talking about the content of the article. Let’s stay focused on the content of the article especially since you’ve had some comments removed for personal attacks today. Thank you!

Feel free to look for yourself. Tell me the ratio of articles posted to this community as compared to my socialist articles. Check out my entire post history and tell me that ratio: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts

Are you having a stroke? I’m responding to your comments about how much this ban bothers you. Which is obviously and clearly quite a lot.
No one claimed you were banned from the tech community… Then again no one asked you to post thousands of times against Democrats. Or did they?
LMAO, you think I care that you permabanned me from your own Lemmy instance? I’ve never even posted there and never would. You’ve done me a favor by banning me from your echo chamber. Thanks for that! :)

Gee thanks for the reminder that the modlog is public information that exists! Thank you!!!

Rewriting history is so beneath you! It bothered you so little you made two posts about it and at this point probably 50 comments about it LMAO
Still waiting on that check. Thank you!!!
