    Our biggest offender would, but they’re currently serving a 3-day ban for Sealioning (public mod logs are awesome).

      What an echo-chamber cop-out. Asking for claims to be backed up is trolling

            Defending democracy… By working as hard as possible to elect the guy who wants to end it!

            Weird flex.

              Banning political opponents from participating in an election is the end of democracy already.

                Nobody is banning anyone from participating in an election. Want to be on the ballot? Follow the state rules. Otherwise, mount a write-in campaign.

                Now address the fact that you are working as hard as possible to elect the guy who wants to end democracy.

                  Jill and every other third party candidate is banned from several state elections. Write ins arent allowed in most states.

                    Jill and every other third party candidate is banned from several state elections.

                    False. Had they simply followed state laws, they could be on the ballot or mount write-in campaigns. Only nine states entirely disallow write-in campaigns: Nevada, New Mexico, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Hawaii.

                    Write ins arent allowed in most states.

                    Again, false. Forty-one states and D.C. all allow them, but there are rules to follow to have your write-in candidacy counted.

                    Now again: Address the fact that you are working as hard as possible to elect the guy who wants to end democracy. I’m not going to stop asking this and let you dodge it.

                Its hard to beat American intolerance isnt it. Democrats shout everyone should get along while throwing shit at multiple groups. Republicans just do the throwing shit part.

                This country needs to wash the shit off their hands and learn how to actually work together for a change.
