Anyone who voted for Trump deserves to die in howling agony. They also deserve to be mercilessly mocked as they do so. Anyone who sympathizes with them deserves the same.

You cannot "educate" these subhumans because education is not something imposed by an outside force; you have to be an active participant in your education. Trying to "educate" a Trump supporter is like trying to calm down a violent abuser; it only makes them more violent and abusive.

gently caress every last one of them and anyone who loves them.

I think he's generally well regarded but it's plain as day to everybody that his approach is not the way forward and, in fact, was not the correct approach even then
Republicans never wanted to move on from Dubyaism because they wallowed in it. They just kept silent afterwards because it was an abject and humiliating failure, and they were eager for anyone who could bring it back , i.e. Trump.

Moving on from Obamaism is basically a measured and reasoned acknowledgment that being measured and reasoned isn't going to do poo poo.

My prompt in bold

Susanna Hornswoggle sits atop a bloody mound of her butchered babies and explains why she voted for Trump.

Her son, a man who she calls "The Big Fat Guy with the Baby," died a few weeks ago. She said she never met him.

"At this point I feel really bad for him because we don't know all of the facts," Hornswoggle said. "He knew what's going on with the drug dealers. The people that are making money off drugs. … It's all over the news now because, you know, what could be the result from an accident on the job? I guess I can't even say whether a doctor was harmed or anything like that.

"It was like an accident, to be honest," she said, adding her son could "just be like, 'Mom, I'm sick. Please do something for me.' "

She said her sons "kept me on good behavior" during the presidential campaign, and the fact that Trump is her candidate doesn't change that.

She said she likes Trump because she thinks he isn't afraid to hold people accountable for what they do.

Hornswoggle said she's concerned about the way Trump is handling violence and terrorism, especially since police have been attacked and killed. Police have to protect the public from these attacks, she said.

Seriously, this is uncanny.

quote:

Far left activists have attacked the university for refusing to teach an article on Palestine. A group of activists stormed the campus Tuesday (March 7) demanding an academic freedom study, saying the university is "part of the establishment". University President Robert Barchi reportedly reacted to the attack with his typical defensive stance. According to The Daily Caller, the university announced to the student activists that the students would have their speech disrupted and that they would not be free to speak, the university president even called on activists to go home in protest. However, the students refused to allow these conditions.

A university official, who requested anonymity because of the sensitive environment of the situation, told TheDC that the university could not ban such events, citing First Amendment protections. The university official claimed that the university is under attack from the right because it allows freedom of speech, especially in areas that might be perceived as controversial.

"We are fighting against censorship. We allow free expression in this campus, and we support people who speak out," the official stressed.

"We are not censoring anybody, but if this group wants to interrupt this speech, and disrupt things, we will deal with that."

Many right-wing activists have denounced the decision. Many student leaders, too, have also expressed their outrage, criticizing the university for not respecting their freedom of speech. For example, one student,

Antifa's recent actions have focused on violence in response to President Trump's "Alt-Right" rally. But the movement is also known for spreading misinformation about the violence at Berkeley. It's been documented that some groups at the rally were responsible for scurrying through the crowd with pepper spray and others began throwing water balloons.

"The police and the public should condemn these actions," Berkman told the audience. "Let's show that the public knows to stand as one. As a community, we will not tolerate these acts against people who represent us and stand against hate."

Berkman said he had a chance to speak to a crowd of about 50 protesters on Monday at the University of Missouri after speaking on stage with the university's student government. "We heard our governor and our city and our state representatives say that, 'If you see something that needs saving … we're committed to it,'" he said.

"I felt like this was a really important time that there was a lot of discussion and the city and state and governor of every state spoke of how grateful they were that the state is helping to clean up and put in place a number of infrastructure improvements that might help us to keep the peace," Berkman said about the rally that began in response to "Unite the Right" last weekend.

This really needs its own thread.

Rural residents and those living near schools and transit have seen rising prices.

"It was a little bit surprising coming here and actually going and making plans for buying something there and not seeing it happen," said Mike O'Brien, 33, who's lived in the neighborhood for 25 years and said he's always heard of the rising prices for his neighbors but was surprised by the price hikes. He bought a new bicycle last year and plans to buy a car this summer.

O'Brien doesn't pay enough for groceries to survive at his new home near a local hospital. He thinks the price increase may not affect his lifestyle because "I have so many things that come and go. I work the part of a chef, I get myself a barber, I get myself a gardener." But he plans to invest in the area and "will start to notice this trend when people start coming here, or not coming here anymore."

Other local residents agree.

"I'm more optimistic if and when a lot of these (prices) start to go up because I can look at all of this stuff my kids can use, and I don't have to go to the store," said Donna Zemmerle, 59, who has lived in the neighborhood for 23 years.

The average cost of a grocery store in Minneapolis was just under $4.85 last year

Goddamn.

Charlie Blanderson is an undecided voter. He has no intention of voting for either of the candidates running for President. After all, he wrote this tweet:

If you vote Libertarian at 4/6 where is your voice? If your voice is a voice in the USA now your silence at an election is deafening! — David Switzer (@DavidSwitzer) April 12, 2016

In fact, Blanderson has already voted in two presidential elections. But when asked about that fact in an interview with Reason TV, he admitted, "I was a little surprised by it." But he added in the video below, "I voted, just not when I wanted to," he concluded.

Blanderson thinks neither candidate has a sound record on gun control:

"I think it's almost hard to find fault with either candidate because for me, that's where I'm from, that's where I love and I've voted for presidents."

Blanderson thinks that voting Libertarian doesn't mean much — it just means that the nation wants to hear from those who say they're "for less government":

"[I]t would help to see the candidates and the candidates' positions and what they believe," he wrote. "But it wouldn't help in the slightest."

Ben Shapiro is three apples tall. And yet, he's still called a bigot.

Because he believes in free speech.

Because his words are meant to promote "traditional American values."

Because he wants to "protect" our community from radical Islamic terrorism.

Because he thinks the government should be our friend.

So yes, I could have listened to him, but I did it right to the last moment.

Instead, every time one of these opinions comes up in an interview or conversation, Shapiro gets slammed by his opponents.

Some call him a racist. Some call him sexist. Some even call him hateful, calling him "pathetic" and "a man-curse."

"He's hateful. He's hateful."

That's what his friends tell me all day long in person.

They see him as a hateful man. They see him as a hateful American who has shown a complete disregard for free speech and our freedoms.

It makes me sick to know he believes it.

But he doesn't. He believes in it.

This is purestrain NYTimes:

quote:

Poor, white Southerners are so used to "whiteness," they think that the term is neutral or even insulting. That is why, for instance, when you hear someone mention "diversity of ideas," you assume that they mean "equal rights for all." The people who speak "whiteness" and "racism" aren't actually saying anything derogatory toward people of color or immigrants. Rather, when they refer to "diversity of ideas," they're referring to the white Southerners who believe that it's somehow racist to talk about race without using the term "diversity" in place of "racism"—a term that is actually racist because it implies that you don't have a right to express racial ideas or think about race without using the word "racist." This attitude is exactly the sort of thing that leads to the kind of "micro-aggressions" that are routinely blamed to justify the mistreatment that many people feel they suffer from people who, in most of the country, are white Southerners.

The fact that there is a long history of white Southerners who believed it was wrong to speak out against the mistreatment of people of color is part of what led to the Southern Poverty Law Center to place an ad this summer warning viewers about the "growing number of white supremacist websites that cater to racist violence, the 'lone wolf'

I'd say that this is probably the only election where voting for a shitlib dem is warranted, not because they're the lesser of two evils or anything like that, but because the one thing that we know with perfect certainty about the 2020 election is that Trump will not concede and the republicans will back him all the way.

Bernie will fight. The rest of them will write op-eds extolling the virtues of the principled opposition who are chagrined by Trump's behavior even as they reluctantly refuse to remove him. Then they'll roll over and wait for the judgement of the republican Supreme Court.

Any non-Bernie candidate who wins the election will absolutely eat poo poo. The more certain their win, the more poo poo they'll eat.

Meh. I think people honestly said that/could have said that with the same sense of urgency for the last few elections where a Republican was the incumbent.
Sure, today's situation is in some ways worse than in prior elections. We know that with hindsight. But at the time, the same sentiment was there: "vote for whomever the (D) nominee is because the situation is oh so dire" (and it was!)
No, I'm saying the sentiment is entirely different because the (D) nominee will never become president even if they win decisively. In 2020 Trump will refuse to accept the results if they're not in his favor, the Republican Party will back him up, and the Democrats will fold. The point is to make this all as stark as possible.

Strangely, I don't think this is going to be true with Trump. It's the one thing I feel optimistic about, that he hosed up this year so spectacularly that he will forever be tied to 300k+ dead Americans and not buying enough vaccine (if that comes to be a problem, we'll see).

There's no rehabilitation, as far as I can see.
If Trump actually leaves office and keeps tweeting, Dems will absolutely rehabilitate him in a hot second. He’ll be a sideshow rather than someone with actual power so they’ll be able to feel smugly superior while encouraging his capering. He’ll love the attention, play into it, and he’ll be hosting SNL within the year.

By March you’ll see Wacky Donald completely normalized. “Sure he helped kill 300k people but remember the McDonalds dinner! LOLOLOL”
