[QUOTE=srobins;51142362]What a gross article. Let's exploit an anecdote about a mentally ill disabled woman to generalize Trump voters, because that's what journalism is in 2016 apparently. I can't wait for this dumb fucking election to be over.[/QUOTE] Have you been on any pro-Trump websites? It doesn't seem far off. Especially the paranoia, those places are hotbeds of conspiracy theories, many pointed against Clinton. The health conspiracy got so bad that they fully expected Hillary to keel over during the debate.

[QUOTE=space1;51141232]With Trump, at least maybe we'll stop immigrants from further deteriorating our low wage situation(Think of people as a product, and in terms of basic supply and demand, it applies here.) and possibly get tax breaks, but he will also further diminish our rights.[/QUOTE] immigrants aren't the ones pushing wages down lol. also trump is prolly gonna increase taxes to pay for all his stupid bullshit anyways, although it'll likely be indirectly

Free money! That's how that works, right? Totally wouldn't cause a great depression, uh, right?

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;51139090]it's a fluff piece for sure but it's an interesting look at how effective baseless internet memes and falsehoods spread and become pillars of peoples belief systems.[/QUOTE] Eh let's be honest - similar memes and baseless internet memes exist on both sides of the barricade. We just consider those closer to us to be less batshit insane.
