Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

MODERATORS
That's not even accurate either, since most if not all presidents have made changes to Cabinet officials and other key positions after being reelected.
When you get new tires on your car, do you tell people you got a new car?
Probably not related, but I tell people I got a new car when it was definitely certified pre-owned.
Nope, but that's a false analogy since the only part of the presidential "car" that's always the same in the second (or third or fourth) term is the driver.
Some presidents have replaced what amounts to most of the motor and the body for their subsequent terms, making it the second car for that driver but not a different driver.
You're treating this like an argument, so I don't see any point in trying to help you with this or anything else.
All you've done is try to argue that it makes perfect sense using false logic. If you think that's you somehow "helping me" and not an argument, I agree that there's no point in continuing.
Disagreement ≠ lack of knowledge or understanding.
