If you want to cry around because you cant handle 4 years of the Trump administration because you feel oppressed then i guess all those people who flee countries that have other people shooting bullets and dropping bombs on them are the actual ones living in a make belief world.

smh

* This is in relation to what im seeing on the web
Instead, why not make up some stupid claim that Trump wasn't born in the U.S., and therefore can't be president?

You should tell that to the butthurt Canadian Conservatives, too.

Don't ya just love hypocrisy? I was having this discussion a half hour ago at coffee with a farmer laughing at the Trump protesters. Ironically, he went and protested against the Dipper's farm safety bill.

The people who were truly salty after Trudeau won were the ones that were obsessively trying to lynch his supporters and poopoo any legitimate positivity.

That is truly salty.

You could argue violent protesters are salty but when people are just sad or depressed immediately after a sudden change, that's not salt. They basically keep to themselves while they recover - which is a completely acceptable response that just speaks volumes about the aggressive types if they decide to ridicule them for it.

I'll ridicule you for anything since you are totally ridiculous

Social Justice Warrior. It's a disparaging comment used by those who oppose society and justice.

Don't be as stupid as Mentalfart. SJW's push an over the top PC agenda and are hypocritical idealogues about environmental issues. Most of them live off other peoples money and are quick to raise taxes or increase debt/deficit for any crazy idea they may have. SJW's are characterized by being offended by anything or anyone they disagree with and spew venomous hatred towards anyone who has a different point of view usually in the most offensive manner. They would probably be happy if they could enact laws preventing people from not thinking just like them. They do not care about society or justice, they care that they get their own way regardless of anything.

But if you are just expressing your despair in solitude and give it time to collect your thoughts, that is very mature.
In solitude??? Shutting down freeways and major urban centers while crying that the election should be overturned is expressing despair in solitude? You get stupider by the second.

Pretend like you didn't take one of my statements and conflated it with some asinine imagining that could only ever erupt in your own, dwindling mind.

See? You've found common ground with them.

You're welcome.

So, your position is that if you are not in the middle of a shooting war, you have no reason to complain about anything?

You should tell that to the butthurt Canadian Conservatives, too.

Only 1/3 people voted roughly and I will take a gander that the majority of people who are protesting didn't actually vote because they believed the polls. That's not my fault if someone didn't vote and then gets tart about the result. I'd say that if the same said person feels oppressed because they missed their chance to be heard by voting then yea I'm going to say they are not comparable to Syrian refugees for example.

If they want to come here they can fill a general application and wait in line, it's not Canada's duty to take these people in because they spent election night on Facebook.

Conservatives in Canada too don't have a valid excuse to leave either and they should not be taken seriously about leaving. I'm not sure if any have left, does someone have the numbers?

Theft of livestock is a very serious matter.

It's not Canada's duty to take these people at all, as far as I'm concerned.

Maybe we should swap. Say, a one-week period in which people can cross the border for good, in either direction.

People in America are taking to the streets to protest Donald Trump being elected president. But instead of it being a working example of how civil disobedience can spotlight a heinous injustice, the protesters are instead shining a light on something more dangerous, even more hideous than a bombastic scumbag occupying the White House; they are unwitting participants of widespread political ignorance, a naïve civilian populace too offended to understand that they are the problem.

In essence, people are protesting their own stupidity under the guise of hating president-elect Trump. They think that having a repugnant president is all one needs to grab a sign and shout slogans, when what they really need is a legit excuse to hit the streets.

There are no accusations of voter fraud, of voter suppression, of hacking electronic voting machines. There is just an election result they disagree with vehemently, and so march they must, to show everyone they are on the right side of history, the left side of decency.

The thing is, they are on the wrong side of clever, and they planted their flag there a long time ago.

You can't bully people to vote against a bully. Probably the most surreal facet of this election was listening to people expose themselves as the guardians of good behaviour as they shamed men and women into voting for a person whose ethics were eroded with every leaked document, every false statement she made.

The snickering of Hillary Clinton voters in the run-up to the election was just as gross as a close-up of Donald Trump's pasty liver lips, while their words were just as ridiculous, just as slanderous. "A vote for Trump is a vote for misogyny" is not an honest or effective way to sway somebody to your camp.

It was not just an attempt to repudiate the republican candidate; it was a message soaked in a superiority complex dressed up as political savvy and delivered by messengers who seemed to all stop taking their anxiety meds after the primary was over. They are a posse of frantic doomsday preachers whose empty rhetoric helped cement the Trump presidency, and now that he has won they are doubling down by protesting democracy itself.

Meanwhile, the one group of voters who actually have legit reasons to hit the streets against injustice are the ones being blamed for snatching victory from the democrats. Entitlement doesn't even begin to describe Clinton and her stable of hyper-charged supporters, the loyalty so visceral and potent that actual evidence of subverting the primary process was brushed aside as a normal part of crowning a nominee.

So try being a Bernie Sanders supporter in that climate, where your candidate was demeaned and abused by these rabid Clintonian soldiers. Then, after the WikiLeaks revelations, after the resignations at the DNC, after the curtain was lifted revealing cheaters and manipulators working against the Sanders candidacy, Sanders supporters are lectured about the future being at stake.

This goes well beyond cognitive dissonance; this was a display of pathological indifference and rabid entitlement where the offenders were acting like the offended, the bullies acting like victims, as they pranced around campaign offices like giddy little know-it-alls assigned to protect America from the Orange Godzilla and his apocalyptic vision.

No. This was madness. Clinton cheated the democratic process and her supporters turned around and acted like they were now the spokespeople for righteousness. Meanwhile, regular voters who saw this hypocrisy were left to untangle the false choice in front of them. And if you want to get down to the data and find out how Trump really won, you can start at the DNC. Their poisonous strategy of subverting the legitimacy of the primary translated into a low voter turnout, costing them the election as well as their reputation of being the party of progressive ideals.

They did this. Every Democratic voter with a penchant for labeling political opposites as racists or sexists can also be credited with the Trump victory. Every journalist colluding with John Podesta can rest easy knowing their lack of ethics thwarted the very campaign they were tasked with assisting.

Every finger that was pointed at an undecided voter, citizens who were shamed and goaded into believing that being undecided meant they must harbour unconscious hatred towards women or Mexicans or Muslims, contributed to Clinton's loss. This is on every democratic operative who thought the ends justified the means as they engaged in dirty tricks and then acted indignant towards the process itself.

Perhaps the only bright spot in this sordid election year is the distant possibility of it being the last or next-to-last election featuring two parties, as the electorate seems to be weary of their most important choice not really being a choice at all. Worse still, actual bigots or the professionally triggered often champions this two-party system, which should be enough for most rational thinkers to want another option when deciding the leader of the free world.

I know I would.

For now we will have to wait out the people protesting outside the Trump buildings in various cities across the country, and pretend they are marching for something other than their own self-pity. Because if they wanted to ensure a Trump-less White House, they should have been on the streets protesting the torching of democracy when they found out their side was the source of the blaze.

I bet you if Berny ran against trump that the Burnster would be president. But I wouldn't know because we never got to see that scenario.
Be a pretty safe bet then. You couldn't win, but you'd never lose.

I think a casino based on that kind of betting'd go bankrupt in a week. Unless they had really expensive drinks.
