First they came for the instigating white supremacists, and I laughed at memes.

Seems like from all of these protests

40% just show up to film it in case something juicy happens
30% show up just to be able to fight someone
20% show up to put something on their social media feed
10% actually protest

Which side? I think the right is protesting about algorithms at the moment.

90% of the right probably don’t know what an algorithm is.

The anger of Trump’s supporters is white hot, it is incendiary, it is real and it is entirely, eminently justifiable, and it is not the anger of the loser, it is the anger of the wronged and is about so much more than Trump, this is about the democratic future of the United States of America. When a country reaches the point of such legal corruption and such moral degeneracy that democracy can be overturned in full view of a complicit and unquestioning media and liberal establishment there is very little guarantee that democracy will ever recover. This is why the anger is at boiling point, and even now, the left cannot understand what they have done.
It’s going hot soon, so prepare accordingly. Or not, I really don’t GAF.

Wow. When you put it that way I can almost understand how fucking stupid the lot of you are. Yes, we should burn it all down. Good luck, cockroaches, this world is yours... again.

I mean, this is the guy we should listen to?

Highly recommend people read that whole blog post (and the comments, and the other anonymous blogspot sites it links to) because it is deeply, deeply funny

Commies aren’t even people. They’re certainly not Americans. I should buy a helicopter.

I love how these “patriots” are so deeply upset that their corrupt POS President was voted out LEGALLY that they are threatening people, wanting to cause harm, wanting to secede, blah blah blah. All they care about is to keep the racist white trump in office because he fuels their beliefs and makes them “OK”.

And can’t be bothered to wear a mask because it suppresses their rights.

They are worried more about Trump then their friends, families, neighbors, coworkers, etc.

SAD!
