this doesn’t take a seer, it’s basic pattern recognition

But LAMF has nothing to do with predicting slippery slopes. It has everything to do with the specific thing being promised, not with things that happen later.

and the literal roots of LAMF has been, among other things, republican voters voting against their best interests because of republican politician lies

Literally false. The root of LAMF is voting for a party that promises to “eat faces”, under the unjustified assumption that only your enemies’ faces would be eaten, and then suffering because the party did exactly what they promised to do, and because said assumption was wrong, and never ‘part of the deal’ at all.

what an odd thing to gatekeep lol

Okay, so you don’t know what that word means, either. “Gatekeeping” is when you arbitrarily limit something, beyond its actual, defined limitations. It’d be gatekeeping to prevent women from entering a chess tournament, but it’s not gatekeeping to prevent men from joining a women’s chess tournament, because that tournament was conceived (pardon the pun) from the start as being women only.

LAMF is clearly defined, you’re just trying to dilute it into meaninglessness by pretending ‘anything bad that happens to someone after the person they voted for wins’ counts as LAMF. It doesn’t.
