Naw everyone knows it's politicians' and bankers' fault for every bad thing ever so clearly we must elect a man who made his fortune in the time-honored, respected industry of real estate to fix it since his hands are not dirty with bankster bailout money.

This is the same guy who called feminists anti-semitic because the term "neckbeard" exists It's almost like the problem here is that calling someone racist makes Scott go into a panic attack and he can't take that it's one of the many, many things people get angry at Donald Trump for doing

pookel posted:Isn't there a fancy psychological term for someone who's so afraid of being disliked that they go out of their way to be jerks so as to remove all doubt? I feel like this describes Matt Forney. Secretly, he fears that all women loathe him and find him disgusting, so he says the worst and grossest things possible and then claims that people hate him for his ideas, not because he's a loser.

The fact that a 60 something woman expressing pity and sympathy for him online spurred him into doxxing her and trying to ruin her life kinda lends credence to this.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark mustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved GBS

I note these two articles, regarding the same "National Policy Institute" event, were published a mere 4 days after the "crying wolf" blogpost: • Alt-Right Exults in Donald Trump’s Election With a Salute: ‘Heil Victory’ in the NYTimes • 'Hail Trump!': White Nationalists Salute the President Elect in the Atlantic Does Mr. SlatePitchCodex have a response yet to the actual neonazis "children of the sun" shouting "Heil Trump, heil the people, heil victory!" while doing the literal Nazi salute? To be excruciatingly fair, there's some minor disagreement over whether it was the German "heil" or the English translation "hail" but I think reasonable people can agree that is a distinction without a difference when they also quoted Nazi propaganda in German, screamed that the mainstream media is the Lügenpresse, and their Just Asking Questions bit about whether the media are all soulless non-persons for allegedly attempting to protect Jewish interests by reportorially attacking Trump! Oh and verbatim called for "peaceful" ethnic cleansing. Here's some choice excerpts from the NYTimes article: Alt-Right Exults in Donald Trump’s Election With a Salute: ‘Heil Victory’ posted:But now his tone changed as he began to tell the audience of more than 200 people, mostly young men, what they had been waiting to hear. He railed against Jews and, with a smile, quoted Nazi propaganda in the original German. America, he said, belonged to white people, whom he called the “children of the sun,” a race of conquerors and creators who had been marginalized but now, in the era of President-elect Donald J. Trump, were “awakening to their own identity.” And here's the Atlantic article, which is much shorter so I quoted the whole thing: 'Hail Trump!': White Nationalists Salute the President Elect posted:“Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory!”

I'm sure they were half joking in their heads but I'm pretty sure the "lol we was just trollin'" is a back-justification once it went all public. Also I'm sure Scott's response will be something like "but Trump specifically said he disavowed the alt right afterwards so everything's fine!"
