I do wish I could send a bottle of wine to everyone here, including Dragonz and Ceallach.
Especially Ceallach.
I wish I could hug you IRL but you would rip my dick out.

Did he justify his stance or did you challenge him on that?
I told him gay people deserve rights too and he shut up. Still this fucked me up like you can't imagine. I dont wanna be here and I want to cry because Im living with homophobic family that doesnt understand the concept of respecting people who may have a thing or two that is not the same to them.
How old is he? I remember from myself that I used to repeat the controversial shit the adults around me said. If he says something like that again try to debate with him why he thinks it's right to be homophobic.
Stay strong, babe!
He is 16. Old enough to know that shit aint right
Ok...punch that sucker
I dont wanna get kicked out of the apartment so I gotta suck it up til i can get my own place. This is awful

That was a pipe dream. Conservative voters have been getting bullied and shit upon from almost every angle. Of course a ton of them were going to be in the closet. Shame is not a good motivator for personal improvement.
And you're underestimating how extensive and deep the Clinton hate goes. For most white women this wasn't even a women's rights issue.

Tinder in Hamburg must simply suck.
You're right about shame not being a good motivator.
I wish more people understood this.
Seems like the way many people on social media try and bring about change.
Still, we're in the infancy of social media.
Also, I think a lot of people underestimated the hate.
The polls on the demographic was completely off.

Fun fact:
Clinton would have lost the popular vote of every election going back to and including 2004 wih the numbers she's at.
Not all Republicans are racist, sexist homophobes? Maybe not, but almost as many of them voted for the explicit version of it as they did the "respectable Republicans" like Romney.
Look, I know you're probably all bored of my shit by now, but I like all of you. You're good people. And like...while we don't necessarily agree politically, I can believe you all have your hearts in the right place and just want what's best for society. But anything other than a strong leftist movement is not placed to do that and I just want to try to convince even just one or two of you to look into leftist movements and politics like democratic socialism and libertarian communism. Because centrist liberalism is failing around the world, and there needs to be a united front against far right extremism which liberalism isn't equipped to deal with.
*sigh*
I'm just terrified about the way the world is going. Genuinely starting to think none of us will live past like 2030

Looks like I'll be hanging out with the girl from class this weekend
Whoa, how did you swing that? Congrats!
See this is why so many independents and people on the fence voted trump. Because people like RNH are saying all the republicans are racist monsters and then you look at the people you know who are voting Trump and you think hey, that guy actually seems pretty okay and has been a good friend to me. So it makes it sound like all the trump hating is lies or at best the needless concern of overly worried people.

I'm legit shook. Been sick to stomach all day, and not just from the hangover. There is an anxiety and dread hanging over my head right now and I can't shake it. No distraction is working. I can barely even make jokes right now. I hate this.
Theres a guy at work that does't wash his hands after pooping. We dubbed him 'poophands'

I'm fine. I want to go and I'm doing my best to prepare.
You're pissing me the fuck off, honestly. You don't have to live under this nutjob for four years. Your society for the most part isn't made up of racist homophobes who believe that gays and blacks and women are the fucking devil. You don't have to deal with fearing for your fucking life for just being who you are.
So unless you move to America and take an active part in our voting system, stop talking as if you know what's best.

thank you
H1Z1 and uh, I don't know. I'm probably car less for another weekend based on how stupid this fucking autoshop is.
That's because their other option was someone very disliked, who didn't do a single god damn thing to win them over.
It's really not that hard to disconnect the ridiculous idea of voting republican = being a racist/bigot/etc. Fact is, if you don't try to win over people at all and you're already unpopular, you're just screwing yourself over. Look at Halycon's post if you want an example of that.
This entire election from both sides has been abysmal. Dems fracturing their side with what happened to Bernie was a huge deal, not doing anything to address the rust belt was the other. I'm so sick of politics being divided as black and white it's how we end up with these bullshit labels from both sides.

This guy was just happy that a lot of people got spared from Killary's hypothetical warmongering. American minorities, lgbt and the environment are collateral damage. Down with NATO, long live Putin...that good stuff.

Right, cool.
Because it's not like Theresa May is an utterly reprehensible human being
Because it's not like we didn't just vote to nuke our economy because of brown people
Because it's not like I live in a country where we have national newspapers printing Islamophobic fearmongering every fucking day in big letters on the front page
Because it's not like we didn't literally have a fucking Member of Parliament shot down in the fucking street because she wanted to accept more refugees
Because it's not like our fucking supposedly not-shit party put "Controls on Immigration" on fucking mugs and on a fucking 10ft tall stone fucking tablet at the last election because pandering to "legitimate working class (racist) concerns about immigration" is apparently a better tactic than suggesting actual fucking solutions
Ugh. Fuck this, I'm out. Sorry that I fucking bothered. Bye.
I just feel kind of sad. I didn't really care for hillary but just the idea that people are excited to vote for a hateful racist sexist clown who has no policy but build a wall and ban muslims just makes me sad. It's just sort of a weird surreal feeling and it's affecting me more than I thought it would. I'm sad for the country

So one thing I am just now starting to see bubble up is the exact same shit happened that happened in Britain.
There are people who voted for Trump just because they thought it was sticking it o the establishment and the govt. and are only now grasping what they did.

my issue with your opinion here isn't that I disagree with your politics, its that I think most of America disagrees with your politics
personally I preferred Bernie in the primary(got sick the day of the primary unfortunately) but thought Hillary would be more electable. I was definitely wrong about that but given we just had two terms of a similar candidate, the issue appears more to be with Hillary than her policies. Of course that could also mean that charisma alone could push forward more left policies but I wouldn't count on it.
really I don't understand why you talk about appealing to more people and then suggest becoming more extreme. wouldn't more people exist in the more moderate spectrum? I might be wrong but I just feel like you're really reading our politics incorrectly and making the wrong conclusions

theres a few things to this
1. i'm convinced everyone is to a degree racist and sexist and from my experience republicans tend to be a bit worse in this regard
2. but, yeah you're absolutely right that that you don't get someone to agree with you by namecalling (however accurate) and such. the issue with it though is its a reaction. minorities get treated a certain way and feel the need to condemn their oppressors and like to hear allies sticking up for them. Theres definitely a time and place for it though and I definitely couldn't tell you where to draw that line
3. that said rnh was right about Hillary having low numbers in the election. and that was still enough to win the popular vote. I think that had more to do with it than people shaming other people and stuff. I would imagine it had an impact but like other things like sexism, its just added to the pile of things gone wrong this election

obama was a cool dude but he was a showmaster first. not unlike trump in this regard only that he wasn't all evil and shit. so it's more like only entertainers & cartoon clowns can get near the top bc they're fun to watch.
I like and respect Obama. But I'm not here to debate Obama. Obama's the past. Trump is the future. :'(

I never once said anything about British politics because I am not an active part of your polItical system. I have no say. I don't pretend to know. It's YOU that's assuming shit about American politics like you know everything.
