Support NeoGAF

[AuthenticM]

This is too fucking funny. What a bunch of fucking losers.

Today, America will decide whether it wants to preserve the semblance of a democracy we live in or burn the whole thing to the ground. And Trump’s loudest supporters have been making some rookie mistakes.

Trump’s internet army has spent this election gleefully propping up a woefully unprepared demagogue—some earnestly, most as a long-running joke. While their collective grasp of trolling and online fuckery is unparalleled, Trump’s goons are having trouble actually voting their golden boy into office, at least according to many many postings on 4Chan.

...

A number of threads appeared on /pol/ today indicating that Trump supports either hadn’t remembered to—or didn’t know they were supposed to—register to vote in order participate in this great American democracy. There’s a delicious irony in seeing the same people who proclaimed an incompetent candidate’s ability to save the United States fail to grasp how that same country’s electoral laws work.

Some were ejected from polling places for wearing Trump paraphernalia, an act which constitutes passive electioneering in many states. Others were unable to properly fill in their ballots for one reason or another.

You can't make this shit up.

Yes you can. Literally all of these are made up

 

[smokeymicpot]

Chances are they are fake but they are still very funny.

 

[Your Entertainer]

First year or so on the internet or first time on 4chan? Those are obviously troll posts ffs... Funny but not worth drawing any more from than that

 

[OnionPowder]

You can't make this shit up.

[QuantumSquid]

Now I see why Pepe is considered a hate symbol.

 

[Count Dookkake]

It's like they're getting cucked on their wedding day.

Such shame and rage!

[Shaanyboi]

Real or not, let them go cry under a fucking bridge.

[Travo]

My God! i wish they were that dumb

 

[kaname-san]

You can't make this shit up.

Yeah you can

 

[Timeaisis]

Did gizmodo just publish a bunch of fake 4chan posts?

 

[Stopdoor]

It's funny to imagine, but it's pretty obvious 4Chan is just jokes upon jokes upon jokes. Kind of depressing that a news site would pretend it's likely credible at all, really.

 

[ponpo]

Not only writing articles about, but believing in /pol/ shitposting.

lmao Gizmodo.

 

[Geist-]

Getting a lot of mileage out of this pic today:

 

[Danis Saur]

For sure these aren't real, just funny made up stories for today.

 

[Hypron]

The best one

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Okay, some of these just got to be joke trolls.

 

[mercenar1e]

4chan trolling lol

 

[How About No]

Don't care if it's not real it's funny and I'm accepting it as real in my heart

[QuantumBro]

Glad a Gizmodo writer is reading 4chan comments instead of doing actual journalism. It's a shame Hogan didn't also kill them as well.

 

[Guevara]

I mean...

...you have to register even to upvote on Reddit.

 

[Beartruck]

If youre too stupid to know you have to register to vote, maaaybe you shouldn't.

 

[RumblingRosco]

Yes you can. Literally all of these are made up

You stole the post I was going to make.

 

[God Dayumm]

4chan: not real

But always entertaining. I don't know how these guys are so good at the make-believe and suspension of disbelief. Unlike Twitter

 

[ponpo]

4chan "get" post predicted the outcome! Call Gizmodo!!!

 

[The Albatross]

My God! i wish they were that dumb

When your fearless leader makes you believe that unwashed hordes are coming over the boarder to rape our women and illegally vote in our election, maybe some of his acolytes start to believe the myth that anybody can vote without doing anything.

4chan "get" post predicted the outcome! Call Gizmodo!!!

I honestly have no fucking idea what I'm even looking at here.

 

[BrutishMrFish]

It's good to see 4chan getting trolled for a change.

At this point, I'll take anything that makes them look like the losers they are, no matter how fake.

 

[How About No]

It's been a while but...don't you register at the polling place on the day of election, and it only takes ten minutes tops?

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

Come on guys, the number of you taking these as truth is embarrassing.

 

[Dabanton]

Fake as shit.

 

[jediyoshi]

Not only writing articles about, but believing in /pol/ shitposting.

lmao Gizmodo.

You think an internet based outlet would know better.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Is /pol/ where most people "ironically" act right-wing and want to have Nazi Germany back.

 

[2 Slice Toaster]

Did gizmodo just publish a bunch of fake 4chan posts?

Next few days will be prime opportunity to post stuff that satisfies the lust for "salt".

Doesn't even have to have the semblance of reality.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

People think these are real?

 

[Audioboxer]

Not only writing articles about, but believing in /pol/ shitposting.

lmao Gizmodo.

While it's silly it doesn't beat pepe becoming a thing on Hillarys website.

This world has gone mad!

As I said in the main topic the real salt comes from twitter and FB.

Hexaubs don't lie.

Some are serious for sure. These stories are fake as hell though

 

[Riposte]

This is a diversion from reading tweets and getting/creating news from twitter.

 

[jetsetnickradio]

There stories are almost certainly just trolls trolling trolls.

Still pretty funny, though.

Depends on the state, most don't allow you to register on the day of.

 

[Averon]

Those are clearly shitposts/trolls.

I can't believe people still take screen capped 4chan posts at face value.

 

[How About No]

Depends on the state, most don't allow you to register on the day of.

Ah well. I'm in Wisconsin and it was nice in the Primary to just go into one line and fill out my info then go to the voting line
