Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

I'm beginning to think this isn't just you building strawmans, maybe you're unable to understand what I'm saying.
Let me try again:
You sound like MAGA, not because of your political views, but because of your relationship with the truth. Which is: make wild claims to support your stance with no evidence, then layer in some insults. That's how MAGA operates, and it's what you're doing right now. Never once did I mention your political views or you being left or right. Nor have I mentioned my political views. Just your wild claims and assumptions, and how they are very much how MAGA chooses to communicate as well.
For example, you said I didn’t want their votes. What proof do you have to make such a claim?
You said to have fun with the loss I earned. How exactly did I earn this loss?
I had already asked these questions to better understand the assumptions you are making, but you seemed to avoid them because they were inconvenient. Much like MAGA does as well.
Condescension and gaslighting. Should really make a bingo card for this. You're pretending that not buying what you're saying is not understanding it.
Are you able to answer my questions, or are you just going to avoid them and dance around topics while throwing insults? I've asked them twice now but you seem unwilling to explain what you said. Almost like you know it's ridiculous, unfounded, and petty.
They're claims you made, I just want to understand them better.
Oh, the irony.
And now sealioning. In case you haven't noticed, I'm not going to participate on your terms.
On my terms, by asking you to explain what you said? I'm such a troll with 2 simple questions, asking what you meant by your statement. We both know why you really won't answer.
I don't think there was ever a time you weren't sealioning this whole conversation lol. Nothing you said has felt genuine. You've just tried to cover it up with a Gish Gallop and now refuse to participate because you're being focused on 2 questions and the absurd claims you made. We both know it, can we stop the act.
And now DARVO.
You can use all the loaded terms you want to avoid blame and deflect but let's look back to how this started.
The irony is you are the one reversing and playing victim. You're committing DARVO while using it lol. You literally attacked me, then played the victim, and trying to say I was attacking you just for asking you to explain. Lol. This horrible thing I did to you was asking you to explain some attack you made. What a cry baby, sounds like you're terminally online. And looking at your profile, yep.
You said I didn't want their votes and I deserved to lose.
You made this wild claims and attacks. With no evidence. No reason. Just threw a temper tantrum for no reason. You seemingly can't control your emotions.
Then, when I asked you to explain these unhinged statements you just insulted me and deflected, because you know you were wrong but you're too proud to admit it. That's such a toxic trait.
And now you cry about every comment and how you're such a victim. You sound like you'd be an abusive partner, saying outlandish and unfounded insults then blaming them when they ask for clarification. You sound abusive AF. Another MAGA trait too.
Eh, on second thought, I'll just block you. You admitted to trolling. You refuse to answer basic questions. You constantly attack people and then cry the victim. You're a terminally online waste of time. You made a BS claim then cowered as soon as you were made to face it. This attempt to save face or whatever isn't working bud and it's a waste of time.
Also, with how abusive you seem I hope to God you're single. But with your attitude I don't think I have to worry too much lol.
Doubling down on the gaslighting and DARVO.
