If they’re not the persecuted portion of society, then that means they’re the persecutors, and that’s just unacceptable.

What do you mean we don’t have to have persecution at all in our society??? What are you, nuts?

Or they're a thoughts and prayers performative christian who doesn't comprehend that they've ever deserved criticism.

You don't actually have to act like or be a good person because believing hard enough in Jesus by definition makes you a good person and your behavior godly. But what's this, people are still criticizing you for egocentric, sanctimonious, and otherwise maladjusted behavior? It can't be because you've done something wrong, that would require introspection. Much more likely they just hate you for being so christian and godly. In fact this makes you extra virtuous because you're such a good christian they're persecuting you just like the martyrs of old!

That's the most insidious thing about right-wing propaganda in my mind: it's like 98% truth mixed with 2% misrepresentation. Yes, the democrat party is by and large corrupted by the influence of foreign, commercial, and and private PAC money behind the scenes, but the answer isn't the party that's corrupted openly by foreign, commercial, and private PAC money.

One I didn't include because it was just a text post was: "Name ONE country, just ONE, that taxes their people and sends that money to America...I'll Wait 😎"

I said Canada has sent us aid and their reply was "the US is the largest economy in the world, with US$20.4 trillion, with Canada ranking tenth at US$1.8 trillion."

So close you'd have to measure it in angstroms.

Why am I seeing people reshare the SURE data from Pennsylvania claiming that more votes than registered voters happened? Wasn't that one of the things Trump's people hosed up in a court case because they confused counties from different states?

“100% are for Biden”

100% of what!? The “extra” 200k votes? Even if that were true, how would anyone know which votes were the “extra” ones? Did they get 200k votes from Faketown, Fake County, PA?

Assuming it's like Michigan it's a because the mail in ballots get sperated from in person ballots. Which means Live Presinct reports like 20% turnout and then Temp Presinct That Exists Only To Count Mail In Ballots ends up with 200000 votes and 0 registered voters. Guess how they broke.

I think the better assumption is to assume that Trump and anyone who passes along this nonsense is 100% full of poo poo until they provide specifics, which they will not.

Wait what the gently caress?

I thought that the Absentee Counting Boards grouped up ballots by their real precincts and actually sent them over (or maybe just the last few) for tabulation.

I'm not an expert but it was a meme going around based on this:
https://www.waynecounty.com/documents/clerk/statementnov20prez.pdf
If you scroll down a hundred pages (page 120ish) you'll see a bunch of presincts with zero registered voters casting votes. It looks like those votes have been placed in a new category since I last looked this up so maybe they hadn't done it yet? (and Trump, forever stuck in the past, hasn't processed the new information like how this all works)
