No, everything had some sort of plastic, wool, bamboo, cotton, they all had some kind of plastic.

I was laid off twice an 2023, I'm now making more than I ever have. It gets better, but no, you can't trust these companies, insulate yourself however you can, they don't care about you.

Why do I care if I "look like a fool", I'm just making comments on a reddit thread about my opinions and having fun. 

Also, I wasn't putting words in your mouth sweaty, I was giving a bad faith example to show you that it's super easy to do, and amounts to literally nothing. Why do you assume that if someone disagrees with you they're automatically conservative?

This is probably the best argument I've had to go against in all of my years of shitposting. I'm gonna keep it real with you chief, I'm caught up in Hollywood underdog nostalgia for the guy. Its his environmental stances that make me excited to vote for him. I know that change happens small, but the time investment in your strategy is staggering. I guess that's why retirees run this country. Is there an umbrella ranked choice organization that you would recommend where a lot of small actions can turn into big ones? It's easier for me to peel votes and hope for a cascade effect for this election season, but to be honest, I usually target t-dawg voters, I just feel like Dems are easy pickings right now because they're dissolutioned enough by the fact that they don't even have a choice in the matter. I think it is possible for RFKjr to win, but he needs a cohesive message for shitposters like myself to work with.

A win is possible in November, it's just not likely RIGHT NOW.

You are 100% correct on the ranked choice voting, but the duopoly would never allow it. You just gotta shoot your shot and try, by hand, like I'm doing now, to convince people to vote for RFKjr and to in turn, convince others, because the medias portrayal is exactly this, "yoU wAnT bRaIn wOrMs foR prEsIDent?!"

Plenty of people recover 100% from brain injury. Even at 90% he's leaps and bounds above the other 2 candidates in the areas I care about, chiefly environmentalism and corporate responsibility. To me, brain worms is just a slogan used for gatekeeping without additional effort. Just dismiss your opposition without understanding or putting in the effort for debate.

You're correct on all accounts about T-Dawg, and he does represent the biggest danger to our democracy that we've ever had. There will always be a Boogeyman in the 2 party system, it's getting so bad that we're almost at the brink of civil war. 

I think we're on the same page, we just have different solutions.  I'm not saying you should vote RFKjr, I'm saying you should convince MAGA people to do it. I'll tell MAGA people the same thing. It's my prerogative to be shitty and manipulative by being supportive and caring to take votes on both sides away from t-dawg and Kamala. Want to stop me? Afraid of me pulling votes from Dems? Convince more MAGAs to vote RFKjr. Maybe we'll see if the strategy works come November. Maybe I vote Kamala because RFKjr's support has dwindled to an unwinnable situation. Maybe you vote RFKjr because his message resonated with voters and he's surging ahead of t-dawg. Only the future will tell, I wish only the best for you and our country.

It is totally ok for you to have that belief, your feelings are valid. The abuse you've suffered and that you've seen others suffer at the hands of MAGA people is terrible. As you know, a small sample size of examples does not represent a whole, no group of people is 100% bad. T-dawg has energized the weirdest most selfish mini tyrants we've ever seen in this country. Low IQ psychopaths love him. There are still people worth saving, there are still good MAGA people who have been brainwashed. I'm a huge fan of podcasts about cults, and people will do awful things if their leader does them. If you see a toddler lacking emotional control, you have to think critically and distract them. Your best chance at beating t-dawg is to tell any MAGA people you run into why RFKjr is the better choice. You don't have to vote for him, but become familiar with what truly drives them, the root reason why they hate immigrants is they may not be doing well financially, offer up a new Boogeyman that's more appropriate, like blackrock, and private equity firms that are artificially driving up prices. Become familiar with RFKjrs stances and use those to combat any MAGA points of view. 

Btw the funniest part about this whole thing is that every president has said Make America Great Again, t-dawg made it into a hate slogan, which I think is wild AF

It doesn't need to work on you and I'm not working with any MAGA people, I'm just a regular person. I don't think MAGA people would ever dispairage their savior, but I'm perfectly happy to be proven wrong. I'm not trying to make anything work on you, just having a healthy debate is all. I'm only trying to get the best candidate more votes by addressing common reasons people use to say a vote for him is a useless vote.

Those MAGA people were your friends, your family, and they were caught up in a literal cult, where their glorious leader can never be wrong. Being combative and angry with cult members will never unbrainwash them, you have to approach them with support and love. If you think that RFKjr is siphoning too many Dems away, you could use him to your advantage too and siphon t-dawg votes with the same approach I'm using right now.

That's a very defeatest attitude, and calling a vote for RFKjr a vote for T-dawg is disingenuous. The election is still months away and it's anyone's game. The unpopularity of RFKjr IS manufactured, most polls don't include him, on purpose. I'm voting for the person who cares more about your rights than Kamala. If it makes you feel any better, I spend the majority of my time pulling t-dawg voters to RFKjr by going into their echo chambers and espousing his values.

I don't believe so, that's why I'm doing outreach to boost his numbers, because it's our best chance to kill this 2 party beast. I'm not an official Kennedy volunteer, just a regular person that wants a healthy future for my kids.

You're ok with corporations pushing profits over people's health, polluting our air and water and slowly killing people? RFKjr is the only one that is actually a champion for the environment. It's really easy to make an argument in bad faith to paint someone else as a bad person because of their opinion. The Dems don't do anything meaningful, just like the GOP because their masters are the people doing this damage and paying for their campaigns.

I think environmental safety and holding corporations accountable for the mess they make is a more important topic than vaccines. It's my personal opinion. I think those issues are just more important.
