It's almost as if: 1 - God actually exists and doesn't agree with you OR 2 - God and demons don't actually exist! I honestly want to see more crisis of faith meltdowns on Nov. 9th. I know they're already prepared for it with accusations of rigging and fraud but some of the craziest true believers have GOT to be seriously questioning their faith at this point.

chitoryu12 posted:I still can't get over the anti-intellectualism here. It's considered bad to have a comprehensive understanding of a subject instead of just going with gut feelings and ignoring everyone telling you that you're wrong. Well it fits right in with Trump going out of his way to deride Clinton for spending a lot of time prepping for debates 2 and 3. He might as well say "check out these NERRRRDSS with their booky books studying for the big test! They're the nerdiest nerds who ever nerded! You'll find me at the kegger with the rest of the deploreables!"

Clinton clearly got the debate questions ahead of time, or was having the answers beamed to the electronic e-ink paper in front of her, because there's no way in a million years anyone could have guess that there'd be questions about ISIS, the Supreme Court, and Social Security at a Presidential debate. Sweet Jesus, these Freepers. The general topics were even announced ahead of time. A high school civics class could have predicted about 70% of the questions that would be asked, but it's all black magic and (((globalist))) trickery to Freepers.

I was simultaneously refreshing the Freep thread, the /pol/ thread and the SA thread, as well as checking on a few select media outlets and twitter accounts throughout the debate and it's like there are two separate dimensions. Trump supporters see one, everyone else sees the same one as I seem to. Some of the /pol/ people were actually starting to see through the bullshit and ask "he's loving this up isn't he? Shillary's going to win isn't she?" and it was fun trolling them with "this is the real redpill, this is the final unpredicted twist in your story, you were wrong all along!" type posts. Like I know I probably got through to approximately 0% of them overall, especially with how fast threads were moving last night, but it was still fun. If even one of them somewhere in the world read it and punched their desk in frustration at a world that disagrees with them or at the fact their candidate is a complete dumbfuck by necessity of the fact that that is what you have to be to support such policies in the first place, or had a half-second of introspection before resuming being a sack of poo poo with terrible opinions, then it was worth it.

^ Then you are gonna be a happy person because it's still happening, from tv to internet postings. Hell, i got a preview last night at work after it ended. Whenever I ask the guy why he supports Trump he says "Well Hillary will take us to war with russia". And based on the same "facts" he uses to draw that conclusion I ask him after all the time "And you think donald won't be willing to outright go to war with any country that insults him". Every time it devolves into some excuse about e-mails or lies or the media picking on him....The sad thing is he's part timing college right now to be a doctor. Last night he was fuming because he couldn't believe what an idiot Trump had become....My only response was "Have you watched any of this campaign of his prior to now, or have you routinely stuffed your head in the sand?"

I'm still chuckling at some of those. In my head I'm picturing those Freepers sitting up all night on their filthy couches whimpering "Why? Why, God, why? Why did you not reveal the demon inside her when we asked you to? Why did you not strike her down? Why are you not exercising your divine will to smite evil as the Bible tells us? Why?"

These people literally believe in demons and angels and souls. See that thread from earlier this month where there was some lovely video that "proved" souls float up from human bodies and fly around doing stuff. I mean, I honestly feel sorry for these wackos because they did not choose to be indoctrinated into this alternate universe belief system but at the same time they're still awful people who wish for the hurting of others so that they can feel slightly less unsafe in their day-to-day lives and I seriously want them to be politically marginalized forever. I also relish the crisis of faith posts and the people who openly declare that they're giving up and not being politically active anymore. There is nothing more satisfying for me to read on the internet.

"I'm not crazy, everyone thinks the way I do" says every untreated crazy person as they justify their psychosis. So, if I can't speak logically or coherently and I am normal, everyone else can't either. Therefore, those that do speak logically and coherently are being fed what to say by [Illuminati/CTR/demons/lizard-people/members of a small Tribes gaming community]. I wonder how many of these folks think that Reagan freed them from mental institutions.

It's amazing. They're declaring skill, intellect, and experience as unfair advantages in the same way some people subscribe to the idea that using looks, charisma, or "sleeping their way to the top" is somehow an "unfair" way to succeed at something. And of course, being Freepers, the irony that these are also complaints they've made about various people on numerous occasions is lost on them.

Freepers are the kids who didn't take high school seriously and made fun of all the nerds for being smart because the smart people unintentionally made them feel bad for not being smart. This is why they bullied the nerds and stuffed them into lockers and knocked their books out from under their arms. They have never grown up past that period of their lives. Again, it really isn't their fault because they grew up with parents who were just as stupid and fearful and paranoid as they are, and they were raised in communities where everyone else was raised to be just as stupid and blindly faithful in religion as they were, but it doesn't excuse anything.

Freep is quite convinced that Trump won last night. Happy freep isn't really good to pick quotes from. From The Latest: GOP says it'll accept election result posted by freeper Coronal Immediately after the debate ended, RNC spokesperson Sean Spicer stated "We're going to respect the will of the people." Don't worry, freep might be happy, but they still hate the RNC. quote:To: Coronal quote:While you idiots at the RNC lust after those that despise you, we won’t forget how you continually stab us in the back. quote:To: Coronal quote:To: Coronal quote:To: Coronal With followup typo fix included. quote:To: Coronal While many freepers have said that they won't be voting downticket, or that they'll be intentionally voting for Democrats to defeat the now-hated GOP candidates, some still understand why this is probably not in their own best interests. quote:To: chris37 But as we have known for a long time, there seems to be a problem with conservatives voting against their own best interests. quote:To: cynwoody I was about to poo poo all over this one, but even the Know-Nothings controlled nearly 25% of the House at their height, so perhaps the Deplorables could actually get national traction. quote:To: chris37 quote:To: pepsionice quote:To: pepsionice Okay, let's talk about these numbers. In a few recent polls that asked about whether Trump was telling a lie about not groping/kissing all those women, or whether the women were telling the lie, just over half of all polled thought Trump was full of it, while about a quarter thought the women were making it up. About ten percent thought both were being dishonest, and the remainder was unsure or unwilling to answer. That 25% of the general population is a great estimate of Trump's core base - the ones that are able to ignore reality. We can't all assume that they're all as fed up with the GOP as freepers are, but given that Trump is taking active measures to divide the party and throw the existing leadership under the bus, we can probably count on a huge chunk of that population to want to back whatever party springs up to hold the ex-GOP crazies. If all of them left, yes, it'd probably be about half of the Republican base. We'll see if the number gets that high. Remember, the Know-Nothings controlled a quarter of the House for a few years. quote:To: Coronal Trump's surrogates immediately latched on to the Al Gore case. Every Presidential election since WW2 has had roughly 35-40% of the US total population turn out to vote. The current US population is about 320 million people as of 2014. Assuming the worst likely case turnout of 35%, we're still going to see roughly 110 million votes. Fivethirtyeight is predicting that Hillary will win 49.7% of the popular vote, while Trump will win 42.9%, with the rest going to Johnson and company. That's a 6.8 percentage point difference, which maths out to about seven and a half million votes. Now, those numbers should be taken with a few grains of salt. They're based on predictions, guesses, and a bit of rounding. Even if it was a close race instead of what is shaping up to be an electoral college blowout, we're still talking about millions and millions of more votes for Hillary than for Trump. Trump has rallied his supporters into thinking that these millions and millions of votes will be fraudulent. While vote fraud does exist, to believe that there's going to be millions and millions of fraudulent votes is simply astounding. There is no basis in reality for this claim. Back to Al Gore. He didn't concede because Florida's horrible voting mechanism resulted in unclearly marked ballots and the count was close enough that including some of those ballots would have ended up causing him to win the entire state. Everyone sat up and paid attention to what happened and how it happened, and we are unlikely to get another repeat of that exact scenario. Even if we had another state or two or three or four that were going to have really close popular vote turnouts, polling currently suggests Hillary has enough of an electoral vote lead to take the White House anyway. Attempting to compare a couple hundred poorly marked ballots in Florida with the millions and millions of actual votes needed to make Trump win is completely and utterly dishonest in every possible way. Moving on ... quote:To: fella quote:To: Coronal quote:To: Coronal quote:To: WMarshal

I found in my upper division undergrad anthropology courses that the engineering and business major classmates tended to get mad because they had trouble with the material, as there were no 1+1=2 is right sorts of answers. So they would blame the course itself and not the fact that apparently they weren't being trained to critically engage with material. This was not as much of an issue for the other STEM majors, who I assume were getting some level of scientific literacy education. Also because it wasn't the easy A they were expecting because, surprise, it's an upper division course.
