Who is responsible for this hellscape?
Trump who appointed 3 religious extremists Barrett, Kavanaugh and Gorsuch
Leonard Leo and the billionaires behind the Federalist Society who played the long game over decades
Mitch McConnell who hijacked the judicial nomination process
Putin, who makde sure Trump one had one goal in mind. To get us to hate billionaires so we can tax them out of existence and destroy our own economy and no longer compete with Russia (or anyone else).
Based on your response it seems Putin has had the very effect on you he wanted to have.
Wait you doubt the fact that he performed massive efforts to lean the election?
While you may argue Trump wasnt aware, and that is fair. Its quite obvious fromt he evidence putin made an effort to lean the election towards Trump.

Ok so you agree that russia did, in fact, manipulate the election... so what is it you are disagreeing with. Your saying its not illegal, but I never said anything about if what they did was legal or not.

(Please could tooters use "quotation" marks and/or a "your comment that" to seperate quotes of others from their own toots(?).)
(Please. I'm asking nicely.)
(Freemo, I had to go to realcaseyrollins' profile to find the toot that you're quoting, as it did not show when I clicked on the original post. Orphan toots seem to be happening a lot lately just like on twitter in the bad old good days. Could be due to mutes, blocks, defederations or other reasons.)

The arrow is a standard for a few reasons.
1) It is the standard across many formats such as email and markdown
2) Much of the fediverse supports markdown so unless your on a archaic server it should display as a nice quote box rendering and not as the > symbol.

Could be a few reasons. Either your server doesnt support edits of posts properly or people are blocking/deleting posts.
@freemo @miguelpergamon @lindyli Mastodong strikes again hehe
Yeah it’s not surprising that #Kolektiva has muted my account tho
Mystery solved, it seems it is kolektiva servers to blame. Sounds like someone needs to get a better instance.
@freemo @realcaseyrollins @lindyli
Get another instance!?!
How will my paranoia about government surveillance be fed then?

Tusky shows a gap between but no evidence of a quote.
The web browser isn't co-operating at all. It says I don't exist!
Your toots addressed to me are there in the non-log-in version - found by search. I can see the toot with your blank profile!
Here's tusky.

Nah homie that line is what denotes the quote, looks like the support is there.

What links are you using?
@freemo @realcaseyrollins @lindyli
I'll see how it looks on other apps and the mastodon web browser.
The missing toot is still missing.
Here's how the mastodon app is presently showing me your toot.
@miguelpergamon @freemo @lindyli I did check the #Kolektiva web client, it supports the #Markdown just fine
@freemo @lindyli Using what methods? Attempts to link #Trump to #Putin through various agents came up short. I suppose they funded bots on #Twitter / #X and specifically #FaceBook via #CambridgeAnalytica (for which #FaceBook was punished as revenge IMHO), but that’s not anything outside what the #USA does to other countries, not is that entirely illegal.
