    as soon as it comes to politics people just trust the results.

    Well, not exactly. I remember before the election, there were polls saying that Trump was gaining fast and that he could win the election. All of Lemmy, laughed and said it would never happen. Some poster even got banned for posting those poll results.

    So when Trump won, Lemmy acted suprised af. Because hey decided to disgregard polls that didn’t say what they wanted.

    So even IF poll are accurate, people like you, will always claim bullshit they don’t say what you wanna hear. :)

      And you’re just an asshole that likes dunking on people that you consider inferior to yourself. I’d do a quick google search for you but I think you need to build up your critical thinking skills.

        Not true. Why the name-calling? When have I ever said that there are people inferior to myself?! What are you even going on about?!

        Also, name-calling is against the rules of this community, so please try to stay respectful.

        All I did was point out that there are plenty of people that don’t believe polls. Especially on Lemmy. Polls came out before the election that Trump’s popularity was rising. Some polls said he could win the election.

        Lemmy denied those polls. Lemmy actually banned people from communites for posting those poll results. Fact.

        And that fact caused you to call me an asshole? For what? Telling you facts of Lemmy’s attittude about polls? Brah, come on now…

          I’m not denying any of the things that you said about how Lemmy reacted to the polls and the elections because that is how they reacted. I’m just saying you’re an asshole for talking down to “people like me” just because I disagree. You just get off on talking down to “people like me.”

            But I wasn’t talking down. I was saying people like you who question polls. You DO question polls. What on earth gave you the impression I was “talking down” to you?

            Totally inappropriate to call me an asshole for that, and that is in violation of the community rules here. No call for name-calling, man.

            What makes you think I get off on talking down to people? I never have and never would. You need to step back and calm down. You are taking Lemmy WAY too personally, man.
