So even if you're a lifelong progressive and believer in social justice if express one single opinion that goes against the sjw narrative that means you're a Nazi and immediately excommunicated? Social justice is starting to sound like the 1700's Catholic church.

More like the age of the Spanish Inquisition. They have attacked people on the assumption that they voted Trump even without proof to back their claim.

These dumbasses talk about a bright future ala Star Trek, but their behaviour is more closer to that of Warhammer 40k's Imperium.

A little over a week ago Michael Moore joined a protest outside of Trump Tower. While there he went inside and tried to visit the president-elect to convince him not to take office. Here's the whole video from Moore's phone.
I haven't watched the whole thing (not sure I can take that much Moore in one sitting) but his visit to the Tower starts at about 11:30 and last for 35 minutes.
During this time he waddles around the build occasionally acting surprised he hasn't been arrested yet, getting flustered at and talking down to those poor PoC's that tell him they support Trump and gets told by security that he's not allowed into the residential areas without an appointment.

From the way he was acting it seems he thought he would either get to lecture the president-elect or get arrested for his political views, so yeah. He was streaming this on Facebook by the way, so everyone watching saw him get the 'fat and unimportant' treatment. :lol:

In other news, the man who Tweeted "if i see any Trump bumper stickers on the road today, my brakes will go out and i'll run you off the road." got sent to a psych ward.
Turns out he is a professor at Rutgers, and this plus some stuff he said in class and on Twitter got people concerned enough to do a wellness check. (Source, Archive)
He's a Gender Studies professor who teaches a course called “Feminist Perspectives: Politicizing Beyoncé.”

Oops! Mr. Allred already has a thread.

That magnificent Kanye is at it again
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Just days after telling fans at a concert that he would have voted for Donald Trump, Kanye West delivered another public screed Saturday night, this time about Beyoncé, Jay Z, Hillary Clinton, Mark Zuckerberg, the radio and MTV at the Sacramento, California, stop of his Saint Pablo Tour.

Captured on video by concert-goers, West in an over 10-minute tirade told the audience he was on his “Trump (expletive) tonight.” Fans in attendance said on social media that West played only a few songs before ending the show abruptly after only 30 minutes. The angry audience booed, and many are seeking refunds for the aborted show. Some paid around $250 for a pair of tickets.

The incident became a hot topic on Twitter and other social platforms Sunday morning, as amateur videos circulated of West’s rant where, among other things, he said he was hurt because he heard Beyoncé refused to perform at the MTV Video Music Awards unless she won Video of the Year over him. He also urged her husband Jay Z to call him and “talk to me like a man.”

West took aim at radio stations for playing the same stuff “over and over and over,” too and also addressed Hillary Clinton.

“It’s a new world, Hillary Clinton, it’s a new world,” West said. “Feelings matter. Because guess what? Everybody in middle America felt a way and they showed you how they felt. Feelings matter, bro.”

The performer said he was putting his life, career and “public well-standing” at risk by talking to the fans in the audience “like this,” adding that his Saint Pablo tour “is the most relevant (expletive) happening.”

He continued: “I am here to change things. And things won’t change until people admit their own falsehoods. I got the visions, bro. That’s what I’ve been blessed with. My vision. I’m not always going to say things the perfect way, the right way. But I’m going to say how I feel.”

West’s representatives did not immediately respond to request for comment

I checked Twitters of some cartoon artists (Alex Hirsh, Thomas Astruc...) and they all are more or less dissapointed in elecion results. While some of them, like Hirsh, were quite calm and tongue-in-cheek in their tweets, others are panicking (while some of them are not American)... It's not this kind of behaviour I expected from my idols.
I get it, Trump is moron, but all those salt and panicking and writing that half of country is sexist and racist is indeed autistic.

Just found this gem https://www.facebook.com/charles.clymer/posts/10157663233005290



I shouldn't be on here as I know it will only upset me, but it would feel wrong and unworthy of people and ideals that I love and admire and in whom I believe if I didn't say some things that need to be said and acknowledge people who deserve it.

I am so proud of Hillary Clinton. I'm proud to look up to her as a leader and a role model. Her iron strength against this hateful, bigoted faithlessness and the counter faith she has in our country is no more evident than in her speech today. We have lost an opportunity for greatness in American leadership and chosen something diametrically opposite of that, and yet, she seemed to take it as a new challenge to conquer.

She will always be "Madam President" to me, not out of some sad denial but as the benchmark for compassion and grit and a refusal to accept things as they are rather than what they could be. Because she gets things done. She doesn't quit, and she doesn't get tired. That has defined her career. Imagine what she'd have accomplished.

I woke up this morning in something between a nightmare and reality, and I have to admit that I am going to be out of commission for a few days, maybe a week. I just need time. I've read some of your messages. I'm not sure I can respond to everyone, but I do love you. Thank you for caring about me.

But I am in awe of people with far less privilege than me--some scarcely any--who woke up this morning, put on their shoes, and got back to work for social equality. I've been asking myself "what's next" over the past 12 hours, more out of fear than initiative, and they, without hesitation, have been looking to where we most need help, so they could roll up their sleeves and pitch in.

Then there are those who had no choice this morning but to go to work, go to school, walk streets and ride subways with nearly 60 million people who just made the decision that being a woman or a person of color or a Muslim or Jewish or a disabled person or LGBTQ were not only NOT worthy of consideration but appropriate targets upon which to direct hatred, bigotry, and violence.

They stand to lose more than anyone because of last night, but they made the decision this morning to leave their homes and apartments and take another chance on the American experiment. Our debt to them, long delinquent, has only increased. We don't deserve their contributions, but they give and give them every day.

The best I could do this morning was making a donation to Planned Parenthood. I hope you'll do the same, either to them or an organization working for those most in need.

I truly wish I could stand here and have the magnanimity expressed by our first black president today in the Rose Garden, calling upon us to work together despite our differences, not pointing fingers or rubbing salt in fresh wounds.

Keep in mind he said this with the knowledge that he will be replaced in January with the first president-elect since Calvin Coolidge to seemingly welcome or condone the endorsement of the KKK, who, by the way, have been observed celebrating this morning in public. David Duke, former Grand Wizard, said last night was one of the greatest of his life.

How I wish I could have the character of Pres. Obama and his faith in certain segments of the American people and his lack of pettiness over what happened last night and what's to come.

But I can't, and perhaps that's why I'll never run for office.

So, thanks to all of you for your "protest votes", your smug and holier-than-thou support of Johnson and Stein, two people who aren't qualified to run a kindergarten classroom, much less the country. Two people who can't even give you the consolation of voting for someone truly great like Nader in the disastrous, lasting effects of the 2000 campaign.

Remember that one? Two costly, devastating wars. The destruction of the economy. A period of searing political attacks on civil rights and civil liberties, the environment, and so much else. Countless human lives lost. Countless livelihoods still in tatters.

All of that under George W. Bush, a man who looks like Winston Churchill compared to the monster we just elected.

You were warned repeatedly this would happen, the effects it would have on racial minorities, on women, on LGBTQ folks, on climate change, on the economy, on the impoverished.

The Supreme Court and all the issues, too painful to list here, that will be directly affected under its purview. In this area, alone, we need a few miracles.

So, congratulations on your moral victory against a progressive candidate who gave you an excellent vehicle upon which to project your supreme, superior "wokeness". Enjoy it. Stay cocooned in whatever gentrified neighborhood you currently occupy and watch the fireworks over the next few years.

I hope you feel shame. I hope it hurts. I hope your white privileged arrogance gnaws at you forever. I hope the feeling of immediate and empty regret that stung you just after midnight will always stay with you and haunt every terrible moment that results from this election.

Because then maybe, just maybe, after not one but two catastrophic elections like this, that will finally be enough to get you think of people who need help rather than whatever illusion of progressive "purity" you so desperately crave.

To those in pain today, I can only offer you the smallest of comforts by looking to the past and ancestors of every background who fought the great battles against hatred and bigotry and enslavement and prevailed, time and time again.

And to look to our sisters and brothers currently living who woke up this morning and made the decision to keep fighting with immediacy, far stronger than I am capable of being at the moment.

I don't know what comes next, but I have to believe we'll get through it, and I promise I'll be right there with you every step of the way.
