Then why y'all so scared of Trump winning?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Can I answer for someone outside the US?

The only reason why I might be OK with Trump winning is that, perhaps, if you experience "fascism light" at the hand of an absolute dimwitted toddler, the damage might be reversible.

Just think about that... Any country wishing to destabilise the US, and destroy trust with allies, etc. Trump is peeeeerfect.

except, we've already done that. That was Trump 1.0

Trump 2.0 includes Project 2025, which is hard core, far right extremism. The Handmaid's Tale level of fascism.

Because tr-mp is evil.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't even understand how your question follows the post at all.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

If things are so good, why do people want to change it

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

because trump supporters are fucking stupid

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (5 children)

Their vote still counts the same as yours. Calling them stupid does nothing nor explains anything. It's a thought stopping comment. Do better.

This is sealioning right here. Not when I stop you from dragging me off the point.

As a single father of two girls, because Trump appointed judges to the Supreme Court who decided to repeal Roe vs Wade. Because he refused to accept the outcome of an election and maintains to this day that he is the duly elected President of the United States. Because he illegally interfered with military aid Congress had apportioned to Ukraine because Zelensky was unwilling to announce investigations into Hunter Biden. The man has lived his whole life with a silver spoon so far up his ass it tickles his tonsils, but he has you convinced he is on your side.

Trump is a corrupt authoritarian hack who only wants the power of the office, he doesn't give a shit about anyone else.

But any criticism of Mango Mussolini is "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as if deep-throating his cock is the normal state of affairs and any dissent is treason.

okay. trump supporters support a fucking verified con-man rapist who also happens to be a convicted felon. and yet they still support him.

what the fuck further "explanation" do you need? are you a trump supporter?

"thought stopping comment" GTFO that's trump's entire fucking platform: don't fucking think, just do as i say

and "do better"? how about this: go fuck yourself

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (3 children)

So much anger. You should get some therapy.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

That's a comment stopper. Do better.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I really hope the irony of this comment wasn't missed by cumskin_genocide

Very dry, I'm dying 😂

What's wrong with my username?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I was mostly going with how you went at them for not giving an essay, and then responding with a shit fling, but now that you mentioned it, i think you should bring up what your username is on your first day of therapy to give the doc a better idea of the work they'll have to do.

Also therapy just really isn't an insult. I've been in therapy for a decade and now my biggest problems are how many hearts I'm breaking each year.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But what's wrong with my username and why should I mention it in therapy?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm sorry that's between you and your therapist. I'm not here to violate HIPPA.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But you think I should go to therapy for my username

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's not my job to educate you.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But you know so much about me and why I should go. Please enlighten me so I can go to therapy and tell them why I need to be there.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Man I mean I should convince you not to go to therapy. Do you know how good that shit is? I swear, weed had NOTHING on the feeling of connecting with your emotions with a licensed professional to help give perspective to your life that you didn't have before. Like I've had great trips on shrooms or doing stupid shit while drunk, but like, recognizing the places you need to grow while accepting yourself for who you are? Fuckin sick dude. It's top tier shit. Expensive as fuck, but it's so worth it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

so little response. you should get some "how to support your point" lessons

but thank you for demonstrating my original point that trump voters are fucking stupid

goddamn fucking right i'm angry

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

When I'm sure you'll be less angry when Biden wins.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

now you're getting it. bravo

trump supporters are fucking stupid

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

no one ever needed the congratulations of stupid trump supporters, and we still don't

i can't hear you over you trying to gargle trumps tiny tictac balls

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Come on you can do better than that. Give it another try big guy. This time with more gusto.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I think I'm doing a pretty good job so far since I got you to reply

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Troll harder asshole

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Okay.

Because Trump will roll everything back and cause worse working and living conditions for minority groups, while compelling the GOP to push for extended term limits, arresting opponents and outspoken individuals under false pretenses and plain lies, and embolden the worst people we have in this country.

Now, you're turn: Challenge me. If you want others to do better we sure as hell will expect that of you. Answer your own question.

*crickets chirping*

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Pretty typical in my experience. If you want them to reply you often need to leave some crack in your reasoning that their cultish little minds can latch onto and run with to the absolute disregard of literally everything else.

Spit straight facts? Normally the only reply you'll get is one made to get under your skin, if they make any attempt at all.

GOP play book rule number whatever: Make your opponents spend the time and energy necessary to dispute you. Then ignore that and attack their character.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

you asked the question. don't whine when you don't like the answer.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Forgive me for wanting an intelligent answer and not the slop you usually get on the internet

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Wouldn't Trump being elected change that? You don't even make sense.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Because there are a ton of single issue voters who ignore all of the good he's done because of the Israel thing, despite the fact that Trump would be exponentially worse.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

There's no US politician that has any chance of being elected that would be any better about Israel. It all comes down to two things: Israel is our only real ally in the Middle East and AIPAC.

They could literally be building camps to gas Muslims and expanding their plans beyond Gaza and we'd likely still support them regardless of which party is in office at the time.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Yeah, I was going to point that out, but someone would have inevitably mentioned Bernie.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Because of the sheer number of stupid/greedy people on the country

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Maybe you should round them up and put them into camps.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Oh how original! No one has ever made that dumbass comparison before in the history of the internet! You must be so proud!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Look out everyone, we've got a master edge lord in our midst!
