    I mean, just voting for Trump doesn’t objectively make you a bad person… That’s the definition of being subjective. Also, I’m confident in my intelligence, please don’t make lemmy the dumpster fire that is Reddit.

    I’m not saying that Trump is a good person, again this is a discussion of Peterson, but one could argue that aside from Trump’s character he wasn’t the worst president the US has had.

      So voting for someone that is not a good person doesn’t make you a bad person?

      What is subjective about two impeachments several indictments, incitement to violence, a history of sexual assault?

      Stupid people are often confident in their intelligence.

      It definitely does.

      but one could argue that aside from Trump’s character he wasn’t the worst president the US has had.

      That is completely irrelevant to the subject about whether voting for Trump objectively makes you a bad person though.

      Your argument is purely semantic and not really substantive unless you define what a “bad person” is. That’ll be different to everyone, so without a common operating definition of a “bad person” your point, while technically true, doesn’t really mean anything.
