A dozen comments later and he's bragging about the countries he's visited, the old cars he can recognize and the video game map he's worked on for 1200 hours, unable to fathom why people aren't supremely impressed. I've got to see this map. EDIT: This Joseph guy is reminds me of Elliot Rodger. 40-Degree Day has a new favorite as of 19:11 on Mar 8, 2016 |

I looked at his profile a bit and he keeps leaving comments on other people's videos that relate to his beloved Pontiac firebird or w/e. Dude is legit obsessed with cars, the list of countries he travelled to and, of all things, gothic 2. He's amazing and very sad since you can just feel how much he tries to believe that all those things actually make him an exceptional and unique person. But everything is completely unremarkable.

Not as the objectively best choice mind you, just a ruthless cutthroat ready to do anything to secure her rightful throne. Personally I don't mind if that's how it comes out, because it's a funny character. They haven't written much about Trump, but I feel like that's because they hate him too much to come up with material that isn't a string of expletives.

Matt Walsh, a writer for Glenn Beck's The Blaze, wrote an article about how we need to pass laws that state. 1. You must pass a 5th grade civics test 2. Abolish Early Voting 3. Only tax payers can vote This is in response to Donald Trump winning. The Facebook page is full of crazy comments but this one left me speechless

Why early voting should be abolished by Matt Walshquote:Early voting problematic for a few practical reasons, namely that people are voting before the candidates have actually completed campaigning. The Louisiana GOP primary on Saturday was called for Trump about 20 minutes after the polls closed because so many people voted before they opened that day. That means many of them probably voted before Trump’s disastrous Michigan debate. They cast their ballot for him, then turned on the TV to see him bragging about his penis size. Perhaps that wouldn’t have changed their minds, but it’s nonetheless foolish to officially give your vote to a candidate before he’s finished making his pitch. http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/in-order-to-save-america-we-must-legally-prevent-oblivious-people-from-voting/

how do you guys deal with the anarchists on your profiles? even when I don't make straight up political posts I have this anarchist guy always jumping into my posts saying "heh if you were an anarchist..." http://imgur.com/K2KzSTy thats one of his most recent posts, but he's always pulling the whole "heh sheeple, paying taxes...." and I'm pretty sure he pays his taxes too so

I also think that "People who care more about and are more involved* in politics will make better votes!" is probably not true at all. There probably isn't any relationship between people caring a lot about something and being correct about it. A single issue voter isn't any better than someone who inundates themselves in right wing information before voting. *This is what they mean when they say "informed", since by "informed" they're usuually just referring to being a person who consumes a lot of political-related information, regardless of whether the information is accurate or not.

The best part about all this is that he goes on and on how only people who actually contribute to society should have a vote, but he himself is a loving professional blogger (though he calls himself a "professional truth sayer"  ). You could strike Matt Walsh from society and not one person would be even minorly inconvenienced by his absence. And yet he goes around telling people they're not important enough to vote.
