       Despite JD Vance lying constantly yesterday in the debate, I really loved how civilized and respectful it was :blobhappy: That's a way better way to practice politics, a little respect for each other goes a long way

       Remember, these are people who lead one of the biggest countries in the world, they should set an exampleIf leaders cannot communicate on a decent level, how can they expect anyone else will

       @stux platforming a liar is so far beneath the minimum standards for political discourse it is dystopian to call it politics at all. I think some standards would probably be beneficial.

       @lauren For sure! :blobcathearts: I also gotta say, the whole Trump ordeal is also the reason I'm sucked into it I guessFor me there was no way to see so much burn and not take a notice, not sure that would have happened if orange would never had shown up

       @stux Hard disagree. This is not the polite exchange of ideas. This is a radical fascist. He should have been called out to his face LIVE and back it up with the receipts LIVE. He deserves zero respect. Don't normalize him. He will say whatever people want to hear to get power, makes debate a complete mockery. Why would want Mystery Meat Vance when you can have Walz Steak.

       @stux there is no.version of killing women and immigrants as a matter of policy that is civilized. Polite expression of those desires is worse, not better.

       When I'm saying that I enjoyed the debate it was because of the lack of namecallingThis does not mean in any way that i agree with Vance.. I can't stand the slimy creature

       @stux all Walz had to do was ask about the couch and he would have automatically won the debate ... unacceptable that he did not do this

       @stux even just saying the word "couch" while talking about an unrelated topic would have done considerable psychic damage

       @stux VP debates are generally much more chill affairs in my memory. Even Cheney's debates were, even with the other guy saying>that's a good point Mr. Cheney but what about your LESBIAN DAUGHTER

       @stux Not advocating name calling - which is always counter productive - but what I saw of it was certainly too cordial for my liking. And if telling it like it is hurts Jim-Dave's and his maga terrorist supporters feels then so be it. There is no middle ground here. You cannot negotiate with fascists.

       @stux I agree civility matters. But when one of the civil people is a lying fascist it kinda normalizes fascism. Sucks.

       @stux lying to your opponent is not respectful. It is lying
