Also: the neo-nazis LOST today in Austria, so there’s that.

On a horrifying and related note, Trumpkins are being a little more bold with their hate crimes. 3 brave white men accosted an 18 year old Muslim woman on the train, yelling Trump and tried to remove her hijab while onlookers did nothing.

Yup, it doesn’t matter how smart, how educated or how savvy you are. If you want to believe something. you can be convinced of anything, no matter how far fetched. People will not closely examine a story if it fits in with a narrative they’re already invested in.

A quick look on yahoo comments shows that a ton of Trump voters legitimately believe this story, they are there in droves on every article that’s criticle of Trump to let you know that actually, THIS article is fake news as well as every other story from the MSM. Post-fact reality.

We’re all finding out that we’re a far stupider, more delusional nation than we had ever dreamed. A con man from reality TV has conned his way into the White House. All bets are off.

Ok ok wait. A pizza place...is running a child sex ring...for Hillary Clinton?

OT: Boo-YAH! A federal judge less than an hour ago ruled for an immediate start to the recounting of Michigan’s nearly 4.8 million ballots. Fucking eat it, Donald.

Yeah but the real crime here is that Spez shut down their insane subreddit and then edited a few of the_donald assholes’ posts so he wasn’t being trashed as violently. Won’t somebody please think of the_donald?!

I wish I could say that I didn’t see this coming. There is a rot in this country and I am not sure what it will take to get rid of it. That we have elected an individual who actively harness the power of conspiracy theory to pursue his agenda (which goes much beyond the “political” given his deeply rooted…

I know all the words I just read. I understand the order they were put in and yet I still do not comprende.

When he’s sworn in as commander-in-chief, he’ll make clear the fullness of his plans.

Because it’s specifically looking to help ONLY Christians. Those reps are trying their damnedest to keep out any and all Muslim refugees, but if they’re Christian? come on in.

There’s a wonderful piece on refugees (and Trump) by a Christian writer here that got a similar response online: Dear Christians, Faith or Fear?

One of the most depressing things I’ve seen recently was a Facebook post from a friend of a friend. Said FOAF is a conservative, white, Mormon woman living in Utah, and her post was essentially “You guys, how can we call ourselves Christians and oppose helping Syrian refugees? How can you think this isn’t your…

The can do so because they categorize them as “others”. Even though the similarities between the Syrians and themselves are so great compared to the differences, they are still somehow not comparable. It’s the same as all these people living in middle America, living on the govt financed extended unemployment,…

There are videos of her in east Aleppo, both at home and with known Aleppo activists, so guess what? You’re dead wrong and shitting out Russian propaganda. And dismissing Syrian rebels as terrorists is racist as fuck. Your ISIS/CIA thing is straight-up tin foil hat bullshit—Daesh’s history is well-known, idiot, and…

Trump, like every demagogue throughout history, relies on the concept of the terrifying “other” who is sub-human and coming to murder us in our sleep if we don’t do something. This is how they all work. It gins up fear, and fear makes people do stupid things.

And If you want to get really mad just take a look an actual bill proposed in Congress by republicans.

It’s one of the first things I thought of Nov 9 - concurrent with the election results, Assad and Peyton felt free to kill more civilians in Syria, without fear of repercussions.

Everyone with a lazy eye is super sorry we make you feel awkward.
