#VoteBlue #VoteBiden

@stux Really? Wow, I never would have thought you could support someone like Biden, yikes.

I honestly would have expected you to lean towards a candidate more in line with european ethics than someone like biden...

@freemo @stux
Current choices are only 2, so its about better rather then the best

@mur2501 @freemo Exactly, Trump is like.. uh.. a fucking fuck face. Sorry, I only have hate for the guy

@stux

Not sure what trump has to do with anything either.. there are more than 2 candidates on the ballot for president, there are 4, more in some states....

@mur2501

@freemo @mur2501 Alright, but from our (euro) perspective there are only 2 guys who can be the next President correct?

@stux

No, that's not correct. Any of the candidates on the ballot can be the next president. If you get enough votes you become president, and all 4 are eligible to vote for them, so all 4 are eligible for president.

@mur2501

@freemo @mur2501 But why does it looks like it’s a ‘battle’ between red/blue aka Trump/Biden?

Isn’t it also very important on what ‘side’ you vote? In this case literally red or blue?

@stux

as for if it matters what side you vote.. not sure what that means.. you vote for people not parties. In the american system the party doesnt make a huge difference as there are no coalitions as in other governments.

@mur2501

@freemo I see, so kinda the opposite of what happens here I guess. Surely there’s a prime monster blabla, but the party is more important and in the US it’s the person instead?

That’s kinda fucked up.. Everyone is so different and how can one hooman make good calls on everything, that should be a team effort

@mur2501

@stux

members of a party in the USa will often side with their party. This is done partly because if they dont then they may not get votes next year since presumably it was people registered with their party who voted for them and thus the party ideals reflect the ideals of their voting base.

But thats about as far as any pressure from their party goes.

@mur2501

@freemo
You have 0 idea of what you're talking about. Absolutely zero.
@stux @mur2501

@TonyStark

What a convincing argument you just made, lol.

I am fairly well educated on US politics. Any specific points I make you want to discuss feel free, but you have literally added nothing to the conversation other than lobbing some random insults and providing no other value of any kind.. so..

@stux @mur2501

@freemo
You've proven yourself time and time again to have zero knowledge of the subject.

I just enjoy pointing it out every so often because for some unknown reason, Stux listens to you. Nobody else does.

@stux @mur2501

@TonyStark

"Stux listens to you. Nobody else does." ... I've got over 15K followers, you sound like a fool.. Feel free to disagree with me, feel free to call me wrong. But it should be obvious, if nothing else, that people **are** listening to me.

It actually caused me to burst out laughing to hear you say that considering I'm in the top 5 users with the highest following count on this service last I checked.

@stux @mur2501

@freemo
Follower count is no indication of success in life. I'm embarrassed for you, honestly, for relying on something so trivial.

Some of the most interesting people here have very few followers.

And judging by the interaction you get, about 99% of them ditched.

Have a nice day!
