        Total asshole thing to say on his part. We have down vote buttons for a reason.

        I have to say, I’m not sure I agree with your points entirely either. However, I do appreciate you voicing a pretty unpopular opinion, stating your points in a calm manner, and not taking rage bait. Lemmy can often feel like a left wing echo chamber, and it’s nice to know I’m not seeing comments from the same 5 people with multiple alt accounts. The fediverse is starting to feel alive.

          The funniest thing is that wide sweeping tariffs are the most left coded action a president has taken since the establishment of social security. People really have lost all objectivity when it comes to Trump or his policies. The entire identity of the “left” in the US has become their opposition to him and his policies.

                Again: gun in your mouth or stfu, Nazi supporting scum

                The only point needed for Nazis like you is a reminder to die, preferably painfully
