People need to understand, about 43% of eligible electorate are going to Vote for Trump. Its better trying to understand them rather than demonize them. What next, no funding to start-ups in Texas since it voted Trump.
Trump is obnoxious but Stalinist purges are not an answer for it.
- archagon 10y agoFunny you should mention Stalin, because it seems that people on Clinton's side are mostly using free speech to express their disgust, while Trump's camp has literally advocated mass deportation and legislating unsympathetic newspapers out of existence.
- DougN7 10y agoYeah, Clinton's side is all rainbows and ponies. This whole post is about Clinton's side wanting to throw Thiel out because of his views! Like happened to Eich. That doesn't clear Trump in any way, but don't you see both sides are the same? That's the problem!
- archagon 10y agoHow could you possibly equate a private company disavowing a single billionaire with the president of the United States harassing and deporting millions of people?
- throwsincenotpc 10y ago> deporting millions of people? millions of illegal immigrants, as a candidate to immigration myself, following the rules, I see no problem with that.
- DougN7 10y agoI'm talking about the general principle of shaming. Trump's an idiot - no argument there. Shaming and going after someone because they see _some_ amount of value in a person is not OK. And both sides do it. What I'm calling out is all the finger pointing and name calling, when both sides are doing exactly the same thing as what they're calling others out on. Frankly, I don't see how this country will ever again be united in any real, lasting way because of all the demonification.
