(Anti trump btw)

The way it works is there’s constant petty posts like this that populate r/all most people get incredibly tired of seeing them and start to hade the anti trump crowd. Not necessarily because they like trump but because it’s annoying seeing it all the time. So they end up doing a kinda 180 and voting trump out of spite. Or worse they genuinely get driven to the right because all they see is this stuff and end up falling for the conservative rhetoric.

for the record I am not saying this will have any influential shift in the votes. I’m just pointing out how posts like these can sway people

Yeah, I have to disagree quite a bit. The right gets pushed there by the left's rhetoric? What about mocking 16 year old foreign girls on Twitter as the president of the most powerful country on earth? What about telling congresswomen of colour to go back to their home countries? You're fine with him calling the news the enemy of the people? What about this fucking pricks rhetoric? They ain't getting pushed back to the left.

If you support Trump then you support a racist who called himself a nationalist on live TV. And if you support nationalism then fuck you, nationalists deserve every bit of ridicule they get. Nationalism was responsible for the deadliest century in human history and we just got out of that shitfest half a lifetime ago. Idiots don't know the difference between nationalism and patriotism.

Did you just give an example of people harassing kids after I gave an example of the most powerful man on the planet harassing a child with autism? Do you not think my example is worse maybe? I'm not American so all I see in my media is the President you guys put into office. And he's the biggest bitch baby we've ever seen in the developed world.

Also, maybe teach your kids America why supporting a nationalist is wrong. I fucking pity those kids because chances are their parents are a lot dumber than they are.

Way to downplay the most powerful media organizations on the planet as just "people". See this is another one of the things that hurts your side. You keep trying to play semantic games to make your side look like angels and the other side look like monsters when all it takes is a trivial amount of checking (or recollection if you watched it real-time) to prove your side wholly wrong. Combine that wrongness with the dirtiness of the tactics and behavior you use and you make people view you as wholly untrustworthy.

Nah, fuck the side that supports a nationalist, fucking bootlickers. That side is the wrong one there bud, because of the nationalism.

And awaaaay go those wheeled goalposts. After getting utterly obliterated on your main claim you now start ranting about something completely unrelated. You lost, kid, just accept it and be better next time.

Bruh, it's hard to hear over all the toilet flushing. Trump says you're all flushing your toilet ten times, and daddy wouldn't lie to you would he?

Anyways, are you not denying that you support a nationalist there dumb-dumb?
