    Yep. And confirmed conservative, if recent headlines are to be trusted.

    We pretending like every thread on Lemmy wasn’t filled with “wish he had better aim” sentiment?

      When both teams suck, all you can do is root for injuries. But no, “I wish you’d just die already” is not a call to violence.

        I remember you from the other thread. You’re a fan of feigning ignorance if it helps your point.

        Read this thread. The people encouraging violence are upvoted far more and those discouraging it are downvoted.

        It’s not just that thread either.

        To continue a theme from our previous thread - you mind if we quit playing stupid?

          The people encouraging violence are upvoted

          The top five root comments have no such thing.

            Maybe your app is displaying them differently, but when I looked the 3rd highest top-level comment wanted the guy to have better aim and it had 49 net upvotes

            I’m archiving so you see the same layout I saw.

      In most the posts I saw, the comments wishing he had been killed were downvoted.

      So yeah, some people made those comments, but most people didn’t agree with them
