[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;51969226]This is actually pretty scary, dude.[/QUOTE]
The USA has a growing fascist movement in today's GOP, that was hijacked by the Tea Party in the wake of 9/11. It needs to find a way to deal with it fast - Trump's win is proof it's already getting way out of hand.
The guy at 1:39 holy shit
Also keep in mind, there'll be a lot of Trump voters who voted for him simply because they honestly believed he was a lesser evil than Clinton - they may not even like him all that much. Those voters aren't the ones showing up to rallies like this one.
Trump's actual supporters, the ones who actually like him, tend to be batshit crazy and extremely uninformed, or otherwise not interested in the truth. They're just happy to finally have a candidate who watches Infowars and confirms their biases about brown people, makes them feel justified in their fear that whites are somehow a threatened minority all of a sudden.
Jesus the level of ignorance is astounding. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

They seem pretty pissed to me. They'd probably actually be less angry if they bothered to do any kind of research.
:hammered:
these people are straight up broken
What they see to want is a country centered around Totalitarianism.

Nah. These are the kind of people who refuse to consider other views. They accept having their biases validated and nothing else.
theres so much hatred there jesus christ

38-45% of Americans approve of trump, though. I feel as if the ones who like him aren't only batshit crazy. I hate trump, to be honest, but I feel like statistically 40% of the american populace aren't 'batshit insane'. Maybe I'm wrong and 40% of the american populace is literally insane, but I feel like the people in this video aren't even rational in the slightest, while atleast normal trump approvers have (fundamentally flawed) rationalizations for their opinions that ascribe to more... not batshit insane values.

They may not be insane but they believe in a fundamentally different set of facts from everyone else in the country.
The proof about Obama's birth certificate is out there? What the fuck are you even talking about? Even if it was true, who gives a fuck? You missed your chance.

Sad. Hopefully they realize the error of their ways some day.

What is even happening, the discourse has just turned into people shouting ignorant and uninformed crap at each other. It's damn near animalistic.

[QUOTE]I still feel guilty about the people I killed in [B]Vietnam[/B]. I'm not proud of that. ... so I'd rather say I defended America.[/QUOTE]
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Vietnam War had nothing to do with defending America.

I would probably lie to myself too if I was one of the people sent to Vietnam. Understatement of the year but that war was fucked up for everyone involved.
That guy at the end saying "I can't wait for the liberal genocide to begin" holy shit, we're reliving the 1930's aren't we?

Not to mention looking for someone to blame for their failures.
at this point I don't think invoking godwins law is really a bad thing anymore
the only difference this time is whoever ends up committing genocide will have it done ironically

"Pah! everything is considered genocide these days. Political correctness gone mad"
when ever I hear the PC excuse I just hear it as "you're encroaching on my safe space please back away and don't call it a safe space"
this is disconcerting, and quite frankly worrying.
I live here in maricopa county and the amount of xenophobia here is disgusting. However, college kids and teachers here are much more accepting on average (honestly think that if these people were more educated they would be the same).

From my experience dealing with people like this at work, they believe everyone and everything opposed to Trump in this country are all part of one giant conspiracy - therefore Obama's "illegitimate" presidency is still somehow the reason white people can't have nice things.
