Anybody else getting snotty good-behavior demands from Trump people, on Facebook?

[Paladin]

I have several, as of today, most of them demanding that we all put on happy faces because we live in such a great country, yadda, yadda, yadda.

My "favorite" is one demanding respectful behavior, with this grammatically-tortured comment:

"Be careful, you are acting in the very hate in which you claim to stand against."

Uhhh, yeah. I intend to be just as nice as conservatives were to Obama during his 8 years. Deal with that, Trumpistas.

[manicraven]

1. I like to tell them that "I'll show tRump as much respect as he showed Obama," so similar to you!

[hamsterjill]

14. I like to channel Madonna.

And just say, "Fuck you"!

[Kath2]

60. Right on!

[adigal]

71. I tell them I'm amazed that big bad Trumpians are such pussies

Then I ask them when they think Trump will grab himself.

[JI7]

2. i see a lot of it on various forums and comments sections

[TubbersUK]

3. There's a lot of it on Twitter today too n/t

[TrekLuver]

4. Yes...and I'm getting it in real life. I just say look I already gave him a chance and his

far right cabinet picks show me that he is not interested in bringing the country together. There are many examples of Trashbag not giving a shit but I'm keeping it simple. All I'm seeing is the fervor dying down on that side and picking up on ours.

[regnaD kciN]

63. I'd say I gave him a chance until...

...he mocked the disabled reporter.

And that was being generous -- it would have been more reasonable for his "chance" to have run out the minute he claimed Mexican immigrants were rapists.

[TrekLuver]

64. Well I'm not being truthful when I tell them I'm giving him a chance...I have hated him since day 1

since he uttered the Mexicans shit...I said that's it ! But that's what I tell them...that Ok he won and after that I gave him a chance....I put aside his divisive tweets (I didn't) blah blah blah...and here is his cabinet picks...and here is that awful inauguration speech...so I think there is plenty right there to say OK I gave him a chance after the election and he could give a shit about reaching out to the other side.

His comment about the marchers not voting....well I think the people who didn't vote or many that did not care or didn't think he'd win...they care now.

[sarah FAILIN]

5. since day 1

So I deleted them all. Life is less stressful without having to correct their lies.

[Maru Kitteh]

17. I unfriended a metric shit-ton of Trumpers. Best decision EVAH. nt

[justiceischeap]

36. Me too. I don't have time for "alternative facts" nt

[AgadorSparticus]

42. I did too. Made a big difference.

[mopinko]

25. i dont brook those people on fb at.all.

my page is like my front room. if you act like an ass, i show you the door. and yes, posting your pathetic, trickle down spam is acting like an ass.

[icymist]

6. Yup.

I got one of those followed closely with how all celebrities need to keep their opinions to themselves. Then this about the WMOW being wrong because women are treated better in this country and we should focus on straightening out the rest of the world...yadda, yadda, yadda! When I questioned it I was told to shut the fuck up.

[Charles Bukowski]

7. Someone (don't know who) said it best.

"My tolerance ends where your oppression begins".

I love that quote. I use it frequently.

[bdamomma]

8. ..................

That statement is about right.

[susanna]

49. I modified that one slightly...

For some odd reason, it really irks my Trump-loving friends: "my tolerance ends where the mocking, objectification or bullying of others begins."

I am letting them unfriend me. Saves me the time and trouble - they are pretty self-selecting.

[Horse with no Name]

56. I always enjoy it when the trash takes itself out. n/t

[susanna]

61. Yep - me too! n/t

[ismnotwasm]

9. Only one

Something about Barron-- mostly I'm not friends with too many people who would vote for that asshole Trump--a few--, but this guy is a RN I know, a great nurse, but not too smart in many other areas. Plus his wife voted for Hillary. I ignore him when he gets political. If he gets pushy I'll tell him off.

[Maru Kitteh]

40. Apropos of nothing, I've decided Barron either doesn't speak English or has a thick accent

and that is why we have never heard him speak.

It makes perfect sense. Trump is clearly an absentee "father." Melania barely speaks English. You can bet the nannies all speak Slovenian. Why wouldn't Barron have a thick accent and/or be functionally illiterate in English?

[calikid]

10. I don't book, but my wife sure has here in the red part of calif.

Most of it is that we should give the twitler a chance. Their relentless bashing of Obama from the start for eight years was disgusting, especially since they couldn't say what he did wrong, just parroting hate radio.

[mopinko]

27. yeah. we arent doing this because his skin is orange.

he actually is a pretender to the throne. imma treat him like one.
there was nothing iffy or hinky in obama's elections. he had an actual mandate. and now we are supposed to support the guy who had fewer votes? i dont think so.

[RayOfHope]

11. Was just bitching about this to my husband. Friend posted some "lets all respect each others opinion

plea on fb, that we all believe different things and its ok.

I told her that agreeing to disagree is for things like "I don't like coffee" not "I don't like black people" (someone posted that on twitter and I thought it was great so I borrowed it and use it frequently.

She replied we all have to respect each other's opinion, to which someone else jumped in and said "not when those opinions will cause my children harm, we don't".

But yes--you almost never hear anyone but trumpies saying "get over it, move forward".

[TlalocW]

33. Not respect

Acknowledge.

Relevant part starts at about 1:50

[gollygee]

12. I just keep hearing something about wanting him to fail being akin to wanting him to crash the plane

We're all riding on. To which I said, "I don't want him to crash the plane, I just realize he's our pilot yet he has no idea how to fly and that's pretty scary."

[LyndaG]

13. One who was terrible on Friday

Now, asking for prayers. Oh, sure.

[mountain grammy]

15. Yes

One "friend" wrote some drivel about how nice all the women get together but wouldn't it help more to open your checkbook and help, blah, blah, blah.
Now, I've been basically ignoring this traitor to women, but had to reach out and inform her the women who march are activists. We are the ones supporting progressive causes that actuallly work to improve people's lives, so really, just what is your problem with our First amendment right to peacefully assemble? Haven't heard back.

[treestar]

20. I love the ones claiming

that as women they have full rights and they don't feel like they are second class. Or the ones lecturing that women in the middle east and elsewhere have it much worse.

[susanna]

51. I've seen that one more than a few times.

I pointed out to her that she enjoys those 'full' rights via the civil disobedience and sacrifices made by prior generations of women. Haven't heard back. I suspect an unfriend is in my future.

[treestar]

67. Saw this

https://medium.com/@dinachka82/about-your-poem-1f26a7585a6f#.n682ngf7f

You Are Not Equal. I’m Sorry.
A post is making rounds on social media, in response to the Women’s March on Saturday, January 21, 2017. It starts with “I am not a “disgrace to women” because I don’t support the women’s march. I do not feel I am a “second class citizen” because I am a woman….”
This is my response to that post.
Say Thank You
Say thank you. Say thank you to the women who gave you a voice. Say thank you to the women who were arrested and imprisoned and beaten and gassed for you to have a voice. Say thank you to the women who refused to back down, to the women who fought tirelessly to give you a voice. Say thank you to the women who put their lives on hold, who –lucky for you — did not have “better things to do” than to march and protest and rally for your voice. So you don’t feel like a “second class citizen.” So you get to feel “equal.”
Thank Susan B. Anthony and Alice Paul for your right to vote.
Thank Elizabeth Stanton for your right to work.

[susanna]

68. Excellent! Thank you for sharing it. n/t

[babylonsister]

16. I have but I've learned to ignore them.

If after the turnout yesterday they don't understand, they never will.

[Raine]

18. Trump said that we need to be over being Politically Correct...

so tell them you're doing it Trump's way.

[treestar]

19. Yes

a lot of finger wagging quality to it.

It reflects their authoritarian personalities.

[roamer65]

21. Dogshit has more value than their opinions.

Fuck 'em.

[Cha]

50. Yep, because they're

brainwashed. blotus is a hateful lying hatemonger.. they want to eat that shit up be my guest.. but stay the fuck away from me.

[stevebreeze]

22. posted the first amendment on a lot of them.

Telling me protesting is not patriotic. Or someone should go to jail for their decent against Trump.

[LeftyMom]

23. No,

but my friends are decent people and their friends are decent people so I'd have to go digging around in the comments to find random assholes.

[Lint Head]

24. I get that and FB Nazis telling people not to post politics. I will be as respectful as they were

and Steve Bannon was to Obama.

[Warpy]

26. "I will be as respectful to Trump as Republicans were to President Obama."

That way you can do your worst.

[apcalc]

28. Oh yes, they don't like the trashing!

Keep it coming!

They villified Hillary too. Screw 'em.

[jack69]

29. My Sister in Law voted for trump because she could not vote for a liar!!!

[jack69]

30. But then, she is always right and we must give him a chance.

[ebbie15644]

31. yeah, but I just unfollowed them

[Justice]

32. I see a lot of "give him a chance"

And I respond - just like conservatives said about Obama - never!

[kydo]

38. I saw the best response to that -"I don't have to give bigotry a chance."

or something to that effect. I read it on DU. Do not remember where or by who. But it stuck with me. Thanks to the DUer that penned it.

[kimbutgar]

34. I stopped using facebook on January 19th

I got tired of the one chumpster telling me to get over it and accept he is the pos. Plus I needed a break from it until I see where things go. I tried to deactivate my account and it was so complicated I just logged off and deleted the apps.

[roamer65]

55. U can unfollow them.

I have unfollowed every Dumpster that has revealed themselves on my FB and now I have peace and quiet on there.

[Lotusflower70]

35. Lol yeah

I tell them to fuck off and go drink their kool-aid.

[martigras]

37. There's a great way to shut that down

Go to You Tube and copy "history won't forget how Barack Obama was treated" and post that sucker after their
comment. Few ever reply.

[beveeheart]

39. Had 3 requests earlier today.

Unfriended 2 of them (ex-stepchildren whose father is mixed Kiowa and Mexican ) and told the 3rd (respectfully) that I was not fine/OK with letting it go after 8 years of disrespect towards Obama and that I will post every instance of incompetence and insanity by NotMyPresident.

[maxrandb]

41. I'm a male but my response is

Sorry, I must be on my period

[rufus dog]

43. I had one put up a prayer that actually included

"silence the dissenters"

These people truly have no clue about democracy.

[Paladin]

45. They want somebody they can obey, rather than merely support.

Genuinely frightening.

[roamer65]

57. Christofascism.

It's not actually true Christianity, it's a false belief in Christ mixed with fascist political ideology.

[bhikkhu]

44. If they are offended, just call them snowflakes

thin-skinned, oversensitive snowflakes. Ask them if they need to go back to their safe space. They invented the use of the word as slander, and it happens to fit them well.

The other day I popped back onto the facebook page of a relative I'd put on ignore before the election. She had a bunch of reposted RW stuff still, and one of them was about how "those snowflakes" need to toughen up and live in the real world, like abusing people to make them strong is a favor to them. I wrote a reply, something like "When I was in school I came to understand that bullies are basically much more thin-skinned, insecure and needy than their victims. After that it was fairly easy to use a little psychology on them, and I never had further problems, never had to 'toughen up'. But you can never respect or trust someone like that; all of my friends have always been snowflakes."...then I didn't post it, probably not much point.

[Paladin]

46. Well said. (nt)

[Different Drummer]

47. I have gotten a lot of those posts. My solution to it is...

to hide the post and then select to receive fewer posts from the offending parties.

[Cha]

48. I have no friends or family who are

that ignorant.. thank you, goddess.

If I did, though, I would tell them straight up I don't want to have anything to do with that lying hate mongering asshole.. fucker has to earn respect and he hasn't. Tell blotus to stop lying.. he can't.. because he would fall off the gd world.

[DonCoquixote]

52. Oh yes

and it is real real irritating to remember these people when they packed every metric half inch with something derogatory against Obama or Hillary, hell so these people have been doing this since Bill was around. It sure doesn't help that I know that when it suits them they will act with all the fury of a bunch of peasants rate of burn someone for witchcraft!

[no_hypocrisy]

53. Not like that. I'm getting posts that continue to insult Michelle Obama.

Some people just can't let go.

[liberal N proud]

54. Been getting them since the election.

[cry baby]

58. How did you know??

Must be some kind of virus spreading from trumpette to trumpster.

[Horse with no Name]

59. Jesus Christ....this thread is like my FB page

where DO they go to get their talking points? Every last one of them.

[regnaD kciN]

62. Just as sick as I was of the "we're celebrating the peaceful transition of power" rationalizations.

When I heard that line pre-inauguration, my reaction was that the only reason to celebrate the peaceful transition of power in this country is that we had confidence that there would be a similar peaceful transition when the incoming administration's time ran out. And that's something I really doubt will happen.

[Kaleva]

65. I see such posts but they aren't directed at me.

I don't discuss politics on FB. Friends and family get into some heated discussions, mostly with people I don't know, but I stay out of it.

[Cha]

66. Post them this from when President Obama was Protested..

[MountCleaners]

73. Love the lynching imagery....

Ask them why they only oppose "hate" against themselves and not the racism of their fellow Trump supporters.

PLEASE.

[jeanmarc]

69. My goal is to get unfollowed or worse from as many Trumptards as possible

I really try to keep facebook as not so political, but this election did it for me. I think I have a mission accomplished, so I'll tone it down, but I'm sick of these aholes.

[Crunchy Frog]

70. Tell the Dumpsters to find a "safe space".

[mnhtnbb]

72. I deleted a number of people who were proud to be "deplorables"

and haven't missed any of them. Not one of them contacted me to ask why we were no longer friends, either.

The relatives that my husband doesn't want me to delete have all their posts hidden. I check their pages once in a while
to see what family stuff is going on and the political $hit I see is disgusting.
