I’m glad you finally concede a CEO is not always representing their company.

That is not what I said. If you want to have honest discussion, this is not the way to do it.

Bad people do bad things is a perfect summary of your dodge of the question.

That is not my argument.

Your article had accusations but no evidence, those accusations were Trump has done some racists things. That’s a far leap from Trump is a white nationalists.

I'm putting in the same level of effort as you. Do you want better sources? Then quit being dishonest about what I am saying, and quit the insults. Until then I'm not going to bother putting in effort to cite the evidence just for you to play childish games.

Still waiting for what rights your fighting for.

I already explained this, just for you to strawman it.

Really seem to be putting a lot of effort into defending yourself over this. Must be really bothering you.

As the other user pointed out, you never presented any facts.

Short of slurs, the rules only apply to leftists around here. So don't get your hopes up.

conservatives like ideas and discussion

We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias.

Pick one. You can't have your cake and eat it too. You guys remove posts that contain facts the moment they don't have confirm the conclusions you already hold.

Since you believe a CEO is always representing their company, then a person couldn’t be a CEO of multiple companies but they are, companies would be legally liable for all actions of their CEO but they are not.

A person can represent multiple companies. And the law is the law, it is often not a reflection reality.

You really need to work on understanding logical fallacies, you lose all credibility when you use them incorrectly.

You portrayed my argument as "Bad people do bad", an intentionally weak and inaccurate version of my argument. That's by definition a strawman.

"A straw man fallacy (sometimes written as strawman) is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion"

The only real difference here is that you portrayed my argument to be so weak that it was implied to be inherently wrong. But at the end of the day you were using a strawman.

If anyone here has lost credibility it is you for using fallacies, and then lying about it.

An opnion piece that doesn’t mention white nantionalists in the whole article is not evidence that Trump is a white nantionalists. Do you even read the articles you cite.

Evidently the concept of synonyms is beyond your understanding. That, and the spelling of "nationalist".

You're also fundamentally missing the point. The article is talking about the -ism, not the specifics which would be the -ists.

To you it is. But for those of us who care about deaths, for those that value human life it is a relevant statistic.

Your values are your own. You cannot dictate to me what my values are.

Germany has 1.04 gub deaths per capita. The U.S. has 12.2 gun deaths per capita. For Germany, 0.06 of those deaths are homicides, compared to the 4.46 homicides for the United States.

We have 74x a higher gun homicide rate and a 12x higher gun suicide rate. So yeah, we absolutely have a gun problem.

Most people disagree with conservative politics, and that goes doubly so for the fediverse. The voting system is more or less a agree/disagree system. And you are posting this to bolster Trump's image.

Couple those together and it's pretty straightforward why this got downvoted.

Given that the democratic party is incapable of doing the literal minimum, and how terrible our voting system is, I wouldn't be surprised.

Agreed. But like I said, never going to happen because using shitty misinformation sources is critical to maintaining beliefs in conservative ideals.
