Huh??? It's blues staunchly denying anything is fishy about the election, lefties are the only ones calling out the obvious cheating

No, only the BlueAnon wackos are diving into these conspiracy theories. No leftist needs that kind of nonsense to explain why the USA would elect someone like Trump.

L*bs em rightfully called out Russian involvement in 2016, but will now die on the hill that trump is totally honest here, that he won fair and square and there shouldn't even be an investigation. Why are they (and you) so desperate to protect trump from scrutiny into his third blatant attempt to steal the election?

I've been banned from liberal communities for sharing info about election fraud, and told by the liberals there that it's clearly not true. Only other leftists I've met have agreed that trump cheated. It's very, very much not a blue thing, because l*bs want to defend the status quo and protect trump from the legal consequences of his actions. You're just not paying attention if you think liberals are the ones saying this (or if you genuinely think that elon doesn't "know the machines" and that him buying votes or trump winning all the swing states with really fishy metrics isn't at all incriminating)

hes an illegitimate fascist dictator.

Liberals are now so caught up in respectability politics that they'll downvote you for calling Trump a fascist. The same people who (rightfully) screamed about collusion the first time around. Absolutely wild and horrifying how far the Overton window has shifted in such a short amount of time

you made a typo,

You wrote "Liberals" when it should bw spelled "controlled opposition" or "Fascists"

That's what I wrote, you're just repeating yourself xp

is there a word for when two parties coalesce into one by virtue of having practically the same donors?

[–] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

If you just deny it hard enough, all the evidence and incriminating statements just fade away and you can pretend the nazis are just respectable, honest political opponents who haven't straight up admitted to tampering with voting machines :)
