I just blocked an Insane Right winger

[yuiyoshida]

on Twitter. She was saying JUST HOW GREAT it would be to NUKE North Korea and destroy their entire population. She is hoping Trump will KILL the "yellow bastards" ... this from a woman who
thinks that RUSSIA is America's greatest ally..


WTF is with these people? Is this really AMERICA, or are we too far gone?? I won't repost her message to me...because of the words she chose to use, regarding my Asianess.... yeah SHE PROBABLY thinks all Asians in America are North Korean spies....

[Not Ruth]

1. People that want war are insane

[eleny]

2. I'm sure it'll make me angry soon but right now it has me tearful

[Angry Dragon]

3. They think if we take out NK it will stop there

they are just a boatload of idiots without oars

[yuiyoshida]

15. oars or a rudder.,...

WORST President Eva...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. I don't know whether to be furious or just depressed.

Mostly depressed, I guess, because there are so many people who are so hateful that they think nothing of killing millions of innocent people.

[yuiyoshida]

16. idk

I don't have a solution to the furious or depressed question... other than

[lpbk2713]

5. Simple minded delusional mouth breathers.

They have no clue what the consequences would be once hostilities start.

[yuiyoshida]

6. I should have told her to go join the ARMY

but than again I wouldn't want to insult Army Veterans...

[Canoe52]

7. Just returned from Vancouver that has an amazing diversity of people

and such a welcoming attitude about it and contrasted that with what is going on here.

Our people here are definitely in some kind of psychosis. It felt so normal there, and coming back to this reality, it feels like bizarro world. Or for those who are old enough to remember - The twilight zone.

[yuiyoshida]

10. I have been to Vancouver bC

its an amazing place. There may have been one time when I would have liked to live there but, I am no good in the cold and snow... my Pacific Islander nature would scream to be some where warm!

[Mister Ed]

33. Truly a state of psychosis, just as you say.

We have millions, perhaps even tens of millions, who are brainwashed into a state of psychosis. They're genuinely unable to distinguish reality from non-reality. And it is fruitless to debate a psychotic.

[bluestarone]

49. man it's

the truth that's the only way to explain whats happening in this great USA

[yardwork]

37. You're right. At least half the U.S. is brainwashed.

[yuiyoshida]

39. brainwashed or they don't care

I have met many people who think that politics is stupid , they don't want a part of it and hate all politicians... and think any one in government from Police on up are full of bullshit. They just want to go about their lives having nothing to do with anything governmental including voting.

[procon]

8. Did everyone forget about Vietnam?

Maybe they're too young to remember the horrors of war that filled our TV screens back then. Surely they've seen the gruesome pictures of the survivors and the dead from Hiroshima from their history textbooks? No one has missed the death and destruction that has ravaged Afghanistan and Iraq.

Given all that, why would any sane human being want to bring on another war and the possibility that two impulsive, immature, self-centered lunatics might start a pissing contest with nukes?

[yuiyoshida]

11. I mean they must be BRAIN WASHED by Fox News...

to the point that ANYTHING THE DEAR LEADER says...IS gospel. Seriously these people are insane.

[lunasun]

9. Angry idiots they want to take out a whole country & it's ok because hey just yellow bastards

[yuiyoshida]

13. YEAH guess she must just hate all of us

who are not white...and ''How dare you speak badly about the President!" ...hes a President not the SON OF GOD...

but hey, Fox News Brainwashed freaks...want to follow blindly off the cliff.

[Warpy]

12. Did you at least ask her what the fuck was wrong with her?

I would have. That way she would block me first and I'd really be rid of her.

[yuiyoshida]

14. she just spouted a ton of stuff

and I don't think she would have cared what i had to say, except that I had a poor attitude towards the President... followed up with " If you don't like it go back to Chiner"

[MLAA]

17. Sorry you had to deal with her toxic waste. These folks are very sick.

[yuiyoshida]

18. Normally I just block them ...

I posted the lawrence O'donnell video and she had to jump down my throat for posting a Liberal video, saying that we should just get over it, Trump is President and we need to respect him and basically kiss his ass...

[Willie Pep]

19. Just ignore those dolts.

Some of these people have underlying problems and they take it out on others. I have relatives like that. They are frustrated with their lives and so the answer is to beat up on other people especially if they look different. It is sad really. Others are just plain jerks.

P.S. Shin Godzilla is an awesome movie.

[yuiyoshida]

21. agree!

Shin Godzilla is my most favored movie to date, with Guardians of the Galaxy 2 following second.

[LoveMyCali]

20. I had to unfriend someone on FaceBook tonight

It's the first time I've ever had to do that despite some of the idiotic drivel I've seen over there. It wasn't anyone I'm close to, just a former co-worker but it depresses me.

He was carrying on about how we wouldn't be in this mess with Korea if Obama wasn't such a weak leader. Pretty common stuff for a right winger but I guess I'm just having a bad day and I lost it.

[yuiyoshida]

22. well unfortunately we don't have

a vetting system when adding people. I have some certain ground rules I chose like to check their web page, see what kind of things they are saying and if they praise some Right winger as brilliant or have a crush on Ann Coulter they get blocked. I barely have to do that, unless someone is extremely on my case.

[barbtries]

23. i block several twitter users a day

and have a fb blocked list of over 600. at this point you don't know if they're bots anyway.

[yuiyoshida]

27. I do post a lot of DU stuff and never really

had a problem before.. most of the people who follow me are okay, and if they seem like trolls, I dump them fast. Those who send me personal messages tend to be civil, however since it was posted in a #nuclearthreat category it may have attracted a few stupid right wingers who had to jump down my throat AND tried to shut me up.

[lapfog_1]

24. nuking north korea

is the only SURE way to have China retaliate against us.

And the one SURE way to have the rest of the world stand back.

[Skittles]

25. don't let losers like that upset you, yuiyoshida

WE OUTNUMBER THEM

[Ninsianna]

26. They're racist assholes.

Saw one recently who was saying they love Russia because the people all look like them. That's all it is, they're pale white people and that's all these racists need.

[yuiyoshida]

40. Maybe that's why Trump has this thing for Russia

They are the one country with people much like the US... but they probably don't have that much diversity there, few Asians, Blacks, and Hispanics...all that's important there is that you are white, straight and speak their mother tongue.

[AllaN01Bear]

28. hem

[LostOne4Ever]

29. There have always been these type of bigoted asshole

They know nothing but hate of the other and think aggression and violence is the solution to everything. They spit on civility and delight in being the biggest assholes to everyone they can.

We used to have them shamed into hiding, but the anonymity of the internet snd sucees of Trump has emboldened them. Another horrible legacy of his we will have to work for decades to undo

[catbyte]

30. They're the same shallow thinking, simplistic morons who thought Iraq

would be a "cakewalk" & that after a month we'd be greeted as The Great White Hope & they'd shower us with flowers & bow down to us as their saviors & give us all their oil. It was a horrific, simple-minded, bigoted, Kochsucking, Fox-PAC fantasy. The only thing it accomplished was to destabilize the entire Middle East.

Now we've got this narcissistic, crazy ass orange Mussolini-wannabe who only cares about his "numbers" & a Republican party that appears to be just fine with it. History--if we survive this--will NOT be kind to any of these treasonous assholes. BTW, I don't know how many Cult45ers or Russian bots I've blocked on Twitter. Their unflappable devotion to Twitler is alarming and it scares the hell out of me. A significant portion of the population & the politicians they elected are a direct threat to America and the entire planet.

[yuiyoshida]

41. I don't know if I have ever been

attacked by a Russian Twitter peron.. but this woman was basically waving the American flag in my face and telling me if I don't like it here, I should just go back to CHINA.

[C Moon]

31. I didn't think about that...war to make Trump look good AND make Russia our ally.

Scary!
Still lots of work to be done to get that traitor out of office.

[yuiyoshida]

42. ITs GONNA be hard to make all those

Republican congress critters to move their asses, they are sitting there playing government and doing the GOP's bidding. This country is being ruled by one party...and its not ours.

[arthritisR_US]

32. She could be a bot.

[yuiyoshida]

43. maybe...idk

Trump bot?

[arthritisR_US]

66. That's what I'm thinking.

[xor]

68. I don't think they need bots for that. They have plenty of tiny brained humans who

will spew that nonsense on their own dime (electricity, bandwidth, and time)

[arthritisR_US]

71. That's true but I think bots reinforce their narrative, give

them a sense of validation, that their beliefs are widely held.

[syringis]

34. Not really comforting but...

...you will find them all around the world, as stupid as one another

[neeksgeek]

35. "Wars not make one great."

Yoda

[yuiyoshida]

44. I rather doubt she was a star wars fan unless it

was Reagan's Star Wars...

[Oneironaut]

36. People like this are the ultimate cowards. They only want wars that they think won't affect them.

A war fought far away by other people - that's what they want.

[yuiyoshida]

45. and don't forget ...she seems to hate

''yellow bastards"... why I don't know. Because we are different?

[GulfCoast66]

55. You did the right thing...

But I would have pissed in her cereal. Told there are a hell of a lot more yellow bastards than there are white American bastards. And between the yellow, brown and black bastards they will soon out numbers the white bastards here in America.

But I can be that way sometimes.

[yuiyoshida]

58. You know...

A lot of Republicans are afraid of losing their powers, because they will once more minorities come up in the ranks...into the political ring and government...

[GulfCoast66]

60. That is the driving force behind this regressive trend

That is what this entire crazy assed rush to bring in regressive policy while trying to repress the minority vote. They can see the demographic timebomb in front of them.

You will see more and more discussion about a constitutional convention of the states in hopes that they can enshrine their regressive policies in the constitution before they are overwhelmed.

They will fail.

[yuiyoshida]

61. well the one thing they do want is

to make it like it used to be, only LAND owners can vote...if you work for someone, you are just that, a worker, with no rights including the chance to vote...eventually they may eliminate our party all together, and try to make it a one party country..just like the Russians did...after all they seem to have this love for RUSSIA.

[MiniMe]

38. Does she understand the geography of the area?

And how many Americans are stationed in or near Seoul? Not to mention how many people would die?

Never mind, she is a right winger, I think that answers my questions

[yuiyoshida]

46. well I don't know if you remember but

Many Republicans hated the fact that Military veterans should have "died in the war..." so when they came back, the government wouldn't have to take care of them, using their money that they pay taxes with...

I never understood that.. selfish shit.

[hunter]

47. Most North Koreans are nice people playing the cards they were dealt as best they are able.

We don't choose the place of our birth.

Lucky me, I was born in California, but I don't remember my little soul not yet incarnate choosing to stand in the California line, waiting for some random sperm and ova to meet and land me nine months later in a Los Angeles maternity ward.

[yuiyoshida]

48. I was born at SF General...

I loved growing up in a basically a Chinese Neighborhood... I wasn't hated because I was of Japanese decent. What I do regret is my parents not wanting to go back to Hawaii to visit their family, I might have ended up staying there, but they wanted me here in California to go though the California school system and with my feet planted firmly on the mainland. I traveled quite a bit and been to at least 30 states.. but never Hawaii.. don't know why I didn't go there...but I fell in love with Tahiti... so I probably should go there. Another place I would love to visit is Saipan,... its US territory so I don't need a passport... but I hear its a hella long flight...more than the 9 hours it took to land in Tahiti. Its not even as commercial as Hawaii..but it belongs to us..If I only had the cash to do so...

[TheBlackAdder]

72. +1. And like most of the world, they also have national pride. Afterall, their home is their home.

[Baitball Blogger]

50. Sadly, many of them have military backgrounds.

Bullets, bombs and excessive police force is their explanation for everything.

[yuiyoshida]

51. basically

using a hammer as their only tool... too lazy to get other tools.

[Baitball Blogger]

53. "too lazy to get other tools."

Well put. I often watch people at gatherings where liquor is served. I don't drink, myself, so I watch and listen. At the reunions where I have military friends there is definitely tough talk that really doesn't leave room for outside reasoning. It's all about fitting in.

[RKP5637]

52. Exactly how world wars start. n/t

[Permanut]

54. Thus demonstrating once and for all..

that the phrase "Insane Right Winger" is an oxymoron.

[Blue_true]

56. Does she realize?

That China will likely nuke the shit out of us after we kill millions of Chinese with hard nuclear fallout. Those damned people are insane, they think that we can do anything we want in isolation. They are dangerous, rabid people.

[yuiyoshida]

59. well said!

[Binkie The Clown]

57. Just like taking out Sadam solved all the Middle East problems.

For some people, violence is the first resort, because it's all they are capable of understanding.

[dalton99a]

62. Tell her the time difference between a U.S. nuke hitting China and a Chinese nuke hitting the U.S.

is about an hour at most.

[yuiyoshida]

63. its was a one way conversation ...what I said....

didn't matter or was ignored. It was only (to her) important what she said...

[dalton99a]

64. People like her are best ignored

They're hopeless - not worth your time or energy

[JuJuYoshida]

73. NAILED IT

[struggle4progress]

65. :(

[xor]

67. There are a lot simple minded folks out there...

I am shocked at how often I see similar extreme craziness assuming it's just someone playing a caricature role mocking such attitudes, but then after a little investigation I discover it's an actual person who truly thinks that way.

No sense is pointing out their flawed thinking because they will ignore all logic and reason.

[Ligyron]

69. Racist idiots

Wonder where they get these ideas? Hmmmm

[LexVegas]

70. "Is this really AMERICA, or are we too far gone??" Did you just get here?
