Trump Enslavement Syndrome - Orange man good. /r/The_Donald and any public demonstration of rabid pro-Trump enthusiasm in spite of all reason.

Well actually, r/The_Donald was originally created by /pol/ as a way to indoctrinate people from reddit to their way of thinking. Given that, your statement is true since the people who weren't from /pol/ that came from r/The_Donald went to /pol/ thinking it was a Trump circlejerk

How do you recruit people to your way of thinking if you instantly ban anyone who doesn't already slavishly agree with you in every minute detail?

That was before the new mods. Since r/The_Donald before had different mods and were free to make anti-semetic jokes. However, mods were added that were more against antisemitism, and when that happened, /pol/ hated the subreddit.

Maher has plenty of out-there opinions but I wouldn’t call him a lolcow. Even less so because he tends to keep his personal life private and really doesn’t get involved in drama irl or anything. Having weird personal opinions and being unable to back them up well would qualify 90% of Twitter as lolcows
 
Given how polarized this election was I'm sure if Hillary won we'd have HDS and r/Hillidawg threads here instead.

And I would probably be more active in an HDS thread, even though I hate her. It just might be more capable of stopping itself from becoming the TDS thread. Or the more rightward shift that happened around the Trump era on here may not have happened as strongly and attracted so many A&H posters who seem to get into trouble when they wander into other sections.

Then there may not be so many people who complain that laughing at cows is promoting a hugbox.

I only consider myself a centrist because the rest of the Left has shifted to the extreme.

Ten years ago, I would've firmly considered myself a leftist.

When the SJW craze dies out for good and the Left cools down and the Democrats try to distance themselves from the SJW's like how the Republicans have been distancing themselves from the old guard Evangelical types, I might start to call myself a leftist again.

Not really SJWs have no real grasp on (nor do they really care to) economics or socialist theory. A ton of these people are faux woke corporate types. That'd be like calling google far left. It isn't, it's just dysfunctional and occasionally partisan to the detriment of itself and others. Thinking this shit is particularly the fault of extreme/radical leftism doesn't actually deal with the root of the problem which is tribalism and Centrists are guilty many times of this too.

Doubtful, only because if Hillary won she would have been a fairly boring normie tier president like Obama and Bush before her. You'd still get people exceptionally angry at her or her opponents over policy decisions, but you wouldn't get this near nuclear their autism the far left and right have over Trump being either pure Hitler or the Second Coming.

Obama Derangement Syndrome was pretty hardcore though. And the X Derangement Syndrome was coined during the Bush years by Charles Krauthammer. You don't have to be a bizarre clown/clown magnet like Trump is to rev up the engines of complete psychos, you just need to be prominent and disagree with them. And in the US, nobody's more prominent than the Prez.

He deserves a thread of his own... I saw religulous and even though I agreed with his overall take, he was so bad at making his argument. He's just so smug. Sorry I'm wandering off topic...

A multimedia thread would work on him, IMO. The doof said Amy Klobuchar would be a good "compromise candidate" and watching that clip made me die a little bit inside.

During the Rogan / Pool interview with Jack Dorsey, Tim asked if the environment at Twitter was heavily left-wing, and Jack responded something along the lines of "while we don't have a litmus test for ideology when we hire, all these people are coming from the same region, I.E. silicon valley, los angeles area," which contains some mutated form of liberal, "woke" idealism from the west coast. Definitely tribal, but there is some inherent leftist, or at least anti-right, anti-republican sentiment.

I definitely think you're right about SJWs having no concept of the systems they claim to hate. It does seem the more they shake up and destabilize their respective industries (comics, games, IT) they reveal no real planning to go forward. It's also weird how easily they're satiated by corporate advertising so long as they're thrown a bone. Chips Ahoy drag mom?

I don't think most extremist have any knowledge of the systems they claim to hate. Ask most Magapedes about socialism.
 

I don't know if this is really the right place for it, but its funny and making fun of Trump.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a speech to his evangelical supporters, who still support him apparently, President Donald Trump criticized Jesus of Nazareth for rejecting the "tremendous deal" that Satan offered while Jesus was being tempted in the desert.

"This Jesus character is pathetic," Trump said, holding up a copy of the Bible while wearing a pair of special gloves so as not to get burned. "Satan was offering all the kingdoms of the world---maybe the best deal in the history of deals! A tremendous deal, really. Amazing. The best!"
In light of the terms of this "amazing deal," Trump said he simply couldn't support Jesus's rejection of Satan's offer.
"The guy totally blew it!" he said, shaking his head. "A very bad decision!"
Trump said he would have totally made a better deal, negotiating with Satan and wheeling and dealing until he had the whole universe in exchange for bowing down to the Great Enemy.

This thread is for making fun of the community r/the_donald
 
I leave for ten minutes and the thread descends into 20+ pages of arguing?

Content: The Donald finally cops to the fact that they are bullying a teenager.

The facts - Greta Thunberg is being manipulated by the news media in order to push the climate change narrative. Because Thunberg is mentally handicapped and probably because her family are attention whores, she's been tricked into going along with it. Like many teenagers she is a zealot for a pet cause because adults give her positive attention for it. The fact that she gets to go on vacation on the UN dime probably doesn't hurt either. In short, she is a dumbass kid but ultimately still a kid.

This ties into the Covington thing because the Covington students were dragged by the news media because one of them was a white male. Conservatives didn't like this and honestly, good for them. The idea that teenagers should be bullied because of preconceived notions about politics is absurd. Teens have agency and responsibilities but they're not responsible for political anything. It's always the adults propping them up behind the scenes that are the true cause. Political activists teenagers are like transgender 6 year olds, you know who's really calling the shots.

With all of that being known, the_Donald responds with their usual tact and calm:

Interesting to see le_donald admit that they want to bully teenagers.

the_donald cannot spell.


the_donald whines that they're being called out on their bullying. If the leftie news media can libel teenagers than goddammit the_donald should be allowed to do it too!!!! it's a child's complaint but here we are.

This one is just the creepiest because the_donald is imagining a 16 year old breeding. Why are right wingers so obsessed with what kind of sex teenagers are having?

gt4.png


Thanks to the lol filter that Reddit placed over them, can't just archive the usual way so these screencaps will have to do until a work around is found. Just to recap: the_donald is throwing a hissy fit over some dumb teenager being used as a pawn, are refusing to engage with her adult handlers, and when confronted with the fact that they are tantruming at a teenager they insist that "the left is doing it so that makes it okay."

And on top of that they're talking about what her sexual habits should be, a 16 year old girl, an underage girl. Gross!

I like how they claim to be concerned for her welfare because of her terrible parents but then give them a minute or two and they're all thirsting about how they'd fuck her or wouldn't fuck her.
 
Guys, I think I found the post that describes this entire thread perfectly.

This is actually refreshingly honest and I appreciate the lack of bullshit. He’s admitting that he’s basically in a cult and this is the hill he will die on.
