I Find It Very Difficult Not to Be Completely Disrespectful Towards Trumpsters on Social Media [View all]
I know it's not the right way to be, but we're not in normal times. We have Americans openly co-signing un-American policies. These people are hands down the biggest hypocrites in the country. These are the same ones waving the flag in acts of over-the-top fake jingoism, but they're perfectly fine with Herr Trump being in bed with the Russians. I've noticed another trend that has become common on the Right and that is to take attacks the Left use against them and co-opt it. They've been doing this for a while, but it's being taken to another level now.
They hijacked the BLM hashtag and created All Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter
They hijacked the very real charge of racism against the Right and came up with "reverse racism."
They have hijacked the fascism charge that is also very real from the right-wing and misuse the term to call the Left fascist when we protest the proliferation of hate speech
I can go on and on...now it's fake news. There was a mountain of fake news leveled against Hillary Clinton and now the Right calls everything they disagree with "fake news."
I don't know what's more annoying and dangerous, Right-wing delusions and the alternate reality they live in or the fact that they will apparently defend and apologize for every little thing he does.
