Look I'm a liberal and all but at this point im beginning to wonder if my side is really stupid or just doesn't want to believe in reality?

  I certainly don't blindly believe the BuzzFeed story either. Actually, I haven't even bothered to read it as I don't really care very much about the US president. I find it bizarre that you think that being a liberal has anything to do with this.

    Proclaiming yourself to be a member of the "other" side to try to undermine their arguments by association is becoming a favorite tactic of trolls.

      Doing exactly that is called 'concern-trolling'

      It is, but it’s easy to undermine without resorting to accusations of trolling, by pointing out that attacks on the character of a source of information rather than critique of the information is unconvincing. It also helps as ryanlol did, to point out non sequiturs such as injections identity politics into the mix for no good reason.

      Especially the way this is phrased. “I am a liberal” is not something liberals actually say. For Reddit there is a Chrome plug-in that lets you highlight users who frequently post on specifically troll-heavy subreddits such as The_Donald so you can spot this kind of shit easily.

        Please leave your toxicity on reddit.

      True, but assuming that everybody's general world view matches our own is what got Trump elected in the first place.
