Trump won, and it wasn't even close. The Democrats gave the Republicans the Senate, the House of Representatives, the White House, and we retain the Supreme Court. You're woke policies backfired. We win. Trump lost the popular vote in a count of 49% to 51%, against. That's not a landslide nor a majority nor a 'popular mandate'. That's Electoral College electors doing their usual corrupt thang, you know, that thang you accused them of back in 2020. The Reps picked up 3 seats in the House; that's not an 'overwhelming majority'. Keep whining, Pissy White Dude. 2024 election Nov. 21, 2024

Ah … you think your twisted world view is “reality”. Isn’t it odd that something like the legal system does factor in motivation when determining if a crime has been committed. If you kill someone in self defense - no crime. If you kill someone while robbing them - serious crime. Same outcome, different motivation, different judgement. Weird how reality works, eh? I was hoping you'd say something like this. When you kill someone in self-defence, you react to something that person did. When you kill someone in a robbery you initiated, you initiated the action that caused the person's death. So in the first case, the death is considered a consequence of an action initiated by the dead person; in the second case, it's the consequence of an action initiated by you. You can't punish a dead person, so in the first case, you walk free. Not so in the second case. But we don't even have to consider this tangent to show that you proved my point. Let's look at your sentence from a previous post again. Same outcome, vastly different motivation. One is a nut-ball the other is a victim. … yet through the distorted lens of your “consequentialist view on ethics”, there is little difference between the two women because they both are bald. The victims of alopecia could have chosen to wear a wig or hair implants. Then they would not have stood out too much. Yet, some women with alopecia made a conscious choice to go bald. And you have beautifully illustrated what happens to women who make a conscious choice to go bald: Somebody uses a picture of them, and posts it on discussion boards with a caption like "this is what a cult looks like". In this case, that somebody was you. And it didn't matter to you that the women's baldness in your OP picture was a consequence of alopecia or an election; because of their choice to go bald, you considered them fair game for shaming. So again: Thanks for proving me right. That is an excellent defense of me using a stock picture of bald women in the OP. According to you, Bald is bald. The motivation of the subjects doesn’t matter. In one fell swoop you just negated half the posts in this thread. … complaining about the use of a photo without considering why the subjects were bald. 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐈⬛ Molly is going too be very angwy with you. Well done!

That “consequentialist view on ethics” argument sure did backfire on you, didn’t it. … and, no. I have no interest in delving once again into your “they are still not a cult” denial argument. If they look like a cult, and they quack like a cult, they’re a cult. QED.

Another humiliating smack down. I’m beginning to think you enjoy getting pwned. You do it so well!

BBC mentions that Trump won the popular vote, but managed less than 50% of the votes. According to a particular peculiar British poster on this board, it means he didn't win the election.

If he did it for a different reason than the one amyghost is harping about, then she has joined phludowin in destroying their own argument. 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐕 🐈⬛ Molly must be spitin’ nails! All I have to do is sit back and watch these two blockheads go to work.

The person who wins the popular vote is the person who gets the most votes. Trump is up by 2.5 million votes. Unless they find a few million ballots in the trunk of an abandoned car, you’re going to be waiting a loooong time. I suggest you put the time to good use. Read an anger management book, or something similar.
