Hoping this can be a way to make people think more critically about their choice for US President, maybe even bring opposing sides together to fix the problems we ALL face.
So if you support Trump try to list 3 things you dislike about him and 3 things you like about Harris. Please keep answers serious. Plenty of other places on Lemmy for you to post snappy putdowns.
My answers in a reply.
It isn’t possible when one candidate has zero redeeming qualities. Trump accomplished nothing other then undermining democracy, undermining trust in science, and stoking xenophobia. He didn’t even accidentally do something right.
It wasn’t easy but I found at least three small things I do appreciate about him. I think painting him as the antichrist is as helpful as declaring him as the second coming of Christ. Maybe it’s too soon but some kind of outreach needs to occur or the desperation on each side will only increase.
That is stupid when the person being themselves is a piece of shit. Do you think Hitler being his genuine self is a positive?
He was also in favor of gun proliferation and he contradicted his opposition to bump stocks because his genuine self is trying to play both sides.
He also constantly undermined them by saying covid was a hoax and telling people they didn’t need to wear masks or be vaccinated.
Your three things are all stupid and you are praising him for being a terrible person.
Maybe it’s a doomed experiment but I think it’s possible to praise an act but not praise the actor. I’m hoping small concessions can lead to common ground.
I’ll actually amend my first bullet though since I believe Trump is a genuine liar (which is contradictory) and say instead I applaud that he committed us to leaving Afghanistan.
