In theory, tax payer paid healthcare is a good idea. In theory.

    No, because liberals killed a disabled person with horrid policy. You got it backwards.

      Explain how a single patient death is a valid argument against the thousands (probably more) of times privatized, profit-driven healthcare in the US has done that or worse.

      When you look at who is preserving and enabling this situation, it’s congressional conservatives. Look at their voting records. Review C-SPAN coverage and watch it actually happen. You cannot manipulate reality with online arguments, only accept/reject it.

      What you have right here is a straw man argument. A single case is anecdotal, the trend however is much more important.

                Admittedly I was because I caught on to the power tripping nature of this community’s mod.

                But that’s how they want to run it so I’m back complying like a good little user and am just going to keep my thoughts to the comments section where that’s allowed.

                You see, conservative opinions only work when being broadcasted while burying out dissenting voices. If those voices are too loud, too many people may not agree with conservatives.

                  I wasn’t following y’alls conversation and I’m Not interested in having a political discussion either. I’m sick of politics online and I don’t want to see it or talk about it all the fucking time.

                  Not sure what u mean nor am I gunna puck it apart and argue. Obviously I disagree. I consider myself conservative, and also an instance admin and I don’t feel the need to ‘take action’

                  Yall both honestly need to chill out lol calm down. Try to connect as just people dude not I’m a this and their a that.

                  Yall aren’t gunna agree on shit so come on lol stop fighting eachother.

                  I mean you do you, this is just how it is with political shit. It’s annoying. Anyway idk drink a beer

                    I’m sick of politics online I am tried of it creeping into any discussion. There is a time and place for politics but not everything is political.

                    I like my Tesla and people act like I murdered someone.

                    If you’re sick of politics online, why are you engaging in a political community?

                    I’ve made many good faith efforts with this person to have rational discussions and have even agreed with them on some points. Unfortunately they melts down and uses straw man arguments when proven wrong, sympathizes with sexual predators and victim blames consistently.

                    Apologies if it offends you, but you don’t have to be here either. I sense a lot of hostility here from dissenting opinions, it seems to be a trend.

                  It was only because you kept violating the rules. Only lefties think being a mod on lemmy is a powertrip. My power is in the real world, not here.

                    Oh I absolutely did in that instance, but both things could be true. My posts were getting deleted in a manner of several seconds, WAY too quickly for you to actually investigate the content of my posts.

                    I’m not even sure I’d be allowed to keep any post up anymore regardless of political leaning considering how hasty you were to quiet down anything I provide. That is a textbook example of power tripping.

                    I’m back and apologized to you because at the end of the day, you are free to run your communities (and make your echo chamber smaller and smaller) however you want. As long as you’re here, I’m game to do whatever I can to provide another perspective on things.

            Nobody’s feeling got hurt. Read rule 2. He violated it intentionally after warnings.
