You pathetic tool. You actually went back to an earlier discussion, yanked a quote from it that fit your misrepresentation, and then shoehorned it into this thread so you wouldn't lose a point.
Is your insecurity truly as limitless as it appears?
Here's the post to which you responded -- the immediate discussion at hand:
You realize that when you say the majority of Trumpkins are bigots you're talking out of your equally stretched ass. There's no way you can prove that. None.
You can say all sorts of shit here and people won't challenge it, but if you said it in a setting where people actually scrutinized what you're saying, a significant number of them would laugh at you.
A number of different people would of course do the same to me, for different reasons, of course.
Validation by fellow travelers doesn't mean you're right. It means you've picked your audience well. Were I to venture into a medium populated with people who favored the media criticisms of, say, Taibbi, Greenwald, or Chris Hedges, or people who favored third party candidates, or even people who simply favor Bernie, I'd be validated and you'd be mocked.
You're focused on the election, and Trump. I'm not. I'm more interested in the forces that caused Trump. Call me crazy, but I think obsessing about the symptoms while ignoring the underlying disease is just... dumb.
