Show HN: Chatroulette for Trump supporters/opponents
- android521 10y agoGood incentive. I don't think this is gonna work though. If trump supporters will actually want to have a conversation and listen to trump opponents, they wouldn't have supported Trump in the first place. So many blatant lies , they have to know some of these are lies, and they still choose to believe it and ignore all the facts. They voted because of their emotions and frustrations (and biases) . No amount of rational thinking /facts/ truths are going to matter.
- krapp 10y agoWe've heard about the alienation and impotent rage of the American white male, the revolution of "rural" Americans agaubst the "urban" elite, and the backlash of the right wing against American liberalism, feminism and cultural heterogeneity. Trump supporters have made it very clear how uninterested they are in debate, criticism or compromise. Trump's election was a statement of contempt for the rest of the country and its ideals. They can't burn their bridges with American culture and then expect that culture to meet them halfway. I feel like there's nothing to discuss at this point.
