Obviously each party has to convince the masses who to vote for. And obviously this is done via news articles and televised debates. But you know damn well I was referring to random clowns on social media telling other people what to do with their vote. No one's opinion here or elsewhere matters. And if I were new to American elections, I wouldn't have mentioned swing states and the importance of knowing what your vote can do if your state is not a swing state. And no, his comments were not trying to convince people to not vote for Biden - he just said he wouldn't vote for Biden - and that's his choice with his vote. I thought it was pretty clear.

In my state, if being boiled alive was up against Biden, I can vote for a third option, or not at all, and Biden will still will. So, it really depends on the state you're in. Furthermore, telling other people how they should cast their vote and trying to guilt them into voting one person over the other is not only pathetic, but also very un-American. If you're in a swing state, vote for who you want and ignore the keyboard warriors who are going to do nothing about it anyways.

How exactly was it proven? Not defending Elon, I'm genuinely curious. The article mentions an audio recording sounding similar to Elon and some weird praises on Twitter. How does that connect the Dittmann account to Elon though?

I recall an article discussing this but didn't read too much into it and it's probably the same recent source you're referencing that got pushed around. Did they take into account that Gen Z has a higher population of internet users than boomers, and a higher population of people in general. I mean, they're comparing a generation of people born when the internet was a thing so they've been using it their entire lives, versus a generation of aged in Internet users with some who never even touched the Internet while they were alive. A generation of people with a PC in their pocket versus landline users. My boomer grandfather didn't get scammed online because he didn't use the internet.....so Gen Z Timmy has a higher chance of being scammed than he had.
