does anyone have a link to that hilarious edit where Trump keeps shutting Jeb! up while the audience boos Jeb! repeatedly? It keeps focusing on Trump's hands, maybe?

quote:

Some Donald Trump supporters attending the Republican presidential candidate's rally in Las Vegas on the eve of the next GOP debate treated protesters with unusual hatred Monday night.

Trump was interrupted several times by Black Lives Matter protesters, prompting a furious reaction from the crowd. Some screamed, pointed, and at one point shoved a heckler as hotel security swooped in to remove them.

As one man was dragged away, Trump supporters variously yelled, "Shoot him!" "Kick his rear end," and "Light the motherf----r on fire!"

A large middle aged man shouted, "Sieg heil!" — a Nazi Germany-era salute — as the protester was taken away.

"He's a Muslim!" another man in a glittering black suit shouted as another protester was removed. "He's a Muslim!"

The dumbest part isn’t that that’s a Nazi salute, it’s that that it makes no sense in context. Who are they saluting, the protester?

I don't even understand what a gamergater is, and I've looked it up several times in the last few months. My healthy human brain cannot comprehend what it is.

I actually thought you were joking with your original gamergate post, but you actually followed up on it. I kind of want to ask what kind of reality you are living in, but you're probably too far gone to explain it at this point.

I'm sorry, I don't get it. You think because they harassed a woman and she didn't feel safe at home that makes them omnipotent man-demons? I mean, they make things suck for women in the industry, but I'm guessing you're just being wildly hyperbolic?

That they're occasionally successful in making a woman quit or doxxing some woman or otherwise harassing them doesn't make them actually powerful in any way.

It is understandable why gamergaters and Trump fans would heavily overlap, though, it's all about angry declarations, the enemy, and feeling no shame for horrible behavior.

Ok, no clue what you're talking about. Nobody in this thread said anything that could be in any way interpreted as evil omnipotent man-demons who drive women from their homes crushing innocent feminists left and right.

You're kind of flipping out about gamergaters being misrepresented. Maybe calm down about gamergaters, they're just crap and not worth the time thinking about them, really. Their logic is Trumpian which is mildly interesting but otherwise they're astonishingly boring.

I'm only now starting to really "engage" with the election season and holy poo poo the GOP elites are scared out of their wits. A recent survey found Trump doing equally well among Republican moderates, conservatives and ultra-conservatives -- basically the profile of an establishment candidate who goes on to win the nomination.

The old-guard conservative papers are talking about a full-blown revolt, party implosion, etc. Outlets like NRO have woken up to discover to their horror that the Republican base has mutated into the American version of Le Pen's Front National. More thoughtful magazines like the American Conservative point out that it was outlets like NRO that planted the seed for the Trump plant to grow into the Venus flytrap that it is.

2016 is going to be interesting.
