Unlikely, he'll probably be just like Nixon who still retains a small devoted segment of people that insist he did nothing wrong but is otherwise still universally reviled.

They shouldn't get to enjoy the economic benefits of the Union while at the same time sliding into authoritarianism and buddying up with Putin.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Kale this is in no way a commentary on the content of your posts positive or negative. But why is every single one of them an essay? Probably the different perspective and outlook thing I've mentioned as well as I've become pretty sure over the course of my life that I arrive at conclusions via a completely different process than a good chunk of the population. That doesn't mean I think I'm special or anything (I know that's the vibe people seem to get though) but something more like if the average person thought in say windows code I must think in Linux code or something. Sorry that's not the best metaphor, but that's the best way I could think of to describe it. For me I guess it just doesn't take a long time to type out a whole lot of thoughts all at once. It also kind of helps me think and come up with new ideas when I can look at all my thoughts just written out on a page and look at each one individually and see if there's any connections or ideas I might have missed or if something doesn't actually track and I need to rethink it. It's not an attempt to make myself the center of attention or hog the page or even to condescend people, it's just sort of how I articulate things. It just comes naturally I guess. I think for a lot of the internet it might actually be the exact opposite though where people would rather boil down an issue or idea to a clever witty meme or something like that as a means of articulating something but IMO half the time it doesn't even track. At least that's how I've sort of come to see it. It used to really frustrate me how it seemed like a lot of people tend to simplify or boil everything down to a singular issue or perspective or popular idea that they really want to talk about and then everybody just repeats that idea or meme because it's what they readily know and a point of common ground, but I think I've kind of come to grips with that just being a reality of the modern internet in the last year. It's all about learning to eventually respect people's differences and outlooks as I grow older and have more life experiences. (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Jesus Christ Is it really that unusual though? If there's one thing that still catches me off guard at times it's why it seems to offend or confound people so much. KickerOfMice posted:
It's mainly because it tends to bring unwanted attention and misreads of what I'm trying to get at otherwise the long form thought process posting is still what comes most naturally to me. Sorry I guess...I'd really rather not be talking about how I post again so much as laughing at Trumps massive army of bots and anti-bots to be totally honest. Like I don't actually like being a focus of the thread is the thing, it's a little uncomfortable, but at least we aren't arguing or anything. e: See here comes the people out of the woodwork to respond to just one poster again but they weren't here before. Again I don't know, I guess that's just the nature of the thread. Instead of talking about the issues and ideas we've tried to raise over the last page we're instead talking about how I post and I don't entirely get why as I'm not for a second looking for any sort of derail.

Kale posted:Seriously Jesus Christ is Trump's twitter profile just a loving mess. It's somehow more stark when the guys talking about golf and it's the exact same propaganda poo poo reply thread and he might as well be talking about one of his stupid political beefs again. I don't know how Twitter can still justify it as important must hear news when it literally reads like a political propaganda page all the time. He clearly has bots to tweet generic support messages for him as well as ones that have been set up to tweet anti-trump messages at every post he makes too. One of them is even just tweeting the exact same meme over and over too of some kid doing a cartwheel that has nothing to do with anything whatsoever. There is a serious loving issue where you have rando checkmarks posting ten tweet threads under a trump tweet for EPIC owns and to grow their own follower count. It's really stupid.

Grapplejack posted:There is a serious loving issue where you have rando checkmarks posting ten tweet threads under a trump tweet for EPIC owns and to grow their own follower count. It's really stupid. I feel like this has sort of become the end goal of using social media now instead of just a communications platform. It started with the intention of allowing people to stay in touch easier and keep more up to date on current events and people they follow, but now it's sort of becoming about getting the maximum amount of attention and followers as fast as possible. It's had a profound negative impact on society in that regard too as now it's really started bleeding out into how people on the internet behave in general in the last several years and arguably as of last year how they behave in real life situations. It's also arguably had a negative impact on certain aspects of pop culture too where I swear certain types of media literally just exist around trying to generate the maximum amount of social media traffic possible instead of just being a worthwhile work of art. Things like the twerking fad in music come to find, I can't think of any other purpose it would have other than that it would be controversial and exhibit sex appeal in one which is guaranteed to bring on site traffic. KickerOfMice posted:You know me, i but poke fun. Yeah that's really the vibe I've gotten from you. You like to poke fun at stuff same as me but I've never doubted that you actually take the time to read what other people are actually posting before you do so and you don't seem to be pre-occupied with just laying down the sick dunks when you think it's that time again and then taking the ball and peacing out immediately after. What more could I really ask of someone on an internet forum?

So most likely Israel then. However, if this is indeed as a response to the earlier reports of chemical attacks, then there's no way this isn't coordinated by the Pentagon in some way.
