my point is that since voting for people is how this country works, simply voting for Trump isn't a moral even horizon for someone, especially because a lot of times, no one person's vote really matters.

Exactly.

Discussion on it is fine, if it's in a purely academic way. When you move to shaming and judgmental language, as opening the discourse to public perception often is, that becomes a problem.

It's a very useful historical example.

Does this mean you'll stop calling me a serial-killer-in-training for cackling at the self-inflicted injury of the man who's too obnoxious to take health precautions for the pandemic he did everything in his power to spread?

At this point I think Dragon Ball Fan is just a bad faith actor and it's a complete waste of time trying to converse with him about anything.

Anyone that spouts out the "both sides" arguments are pieces of shit that don't deserve acknowledgement.

if I ever used "Both sides", I used it as in "both sides are bad" but I don't think I did. and I admit defeat in the argument anyway.
