She's a public figure, and this information extremely relevant to that status.
Edit: changed and added some words to make comment clearer.
Registered party means nothing other than what primary you vote in. depending on your location, being registered to the republican party is the only way to have a voice at all in primaries and try and reduce your amount of local crazies in the election.
You shouldn't dox people, and I don't know anything about Sydney Sweeney, but unless she's actively political, really, even her registered party shouldn't be worthwhile news.
It's my honest opinion that if a celebrity tries to keep their political opinions to themselves, then we should let them. We don't need to know all of the opinions of every celebrity.
Votes are private. Unless she has stated it, we simply don't know who she is voting for. She may even be in a county that is overwhelmingly red, and because of our terrible FPTP voting system, her best chance of voting for a better candidate may be in the Republican primaries.
You know, one of the things that I've liked about Lemmy compared to Reddit is that occasionally, you can have a civilized discussion here. The more people rush to judge here on Lemmy, the more toxic the platform will become.
There is a difference between delusion and steelmanning. I would argue that if you don't know how to steelman, then you're not really capable of having a civilized discussion. Civilized discussions require empathy.
empathy? Like I should try and understand a Nazis POV… have a civilized dicussion with him/her?
At some point you need to just look the other person in the face and tell them to get fucked.
I’m rapidly approaching that point with you.
Yes, telling the other person to "get fucked" is a guaranteed way to ensure that you aren't having a civilized discussion.
And yes, MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca, empathy is necessary, not just to have a civilized discussion, but simply to be a human. Like, for example, I am empathizing with you here, despite your escalating rhetoric. Suddenly, it's not about us having a discussion, it's about having a discussion with a Nazi. These are the sorts of things people say when they just want to win, and they don't care how they do it. Ironically, a tactic pretty closely associated with Nazis.
The reason humans bait mouse traps with food is they have empathy for the mouse. Maybe you shouldn't throw away such a useful tool out of a desperate need to feel like you've won an argument.
lol you don't know how rabid dems are these days, no wonder they lost
