A local page posted an article about mouth-breathing state rep Aaron Bernstine, who's nose is so far up Trump's ass that it looks like Trump has four nostrils. The current piece is about Democratic lawmakers demanding that L'il Aaron apologize for declaring his intent to murder protesters with his car, given the chance.
Anyway, here's a sampling of the local intelligentsia:
And another:
Well, waving the Confederate surrender flag (the ultimate participation trophy) is a clear statement that the person hates America. Would you kill them, too?
Incidentally, here's my first comment on the topic:
For that matter, they should be barred from using motor vehicles for a few decades, until they get their anger issues sorted out.
These are the Trump voters, the mythical idiot racist fuckheads we're all trying to figure out how deal with. They are proudly stupid, they celebrate their racism, they revel in misogyny (both men and women) and they embrace dishonesty and hypocrisy at every turn.
They do not want or deserve our outreach. They do not want or deserve our empathy. They do not want or deserve our understanding.
They want our subjugation, our silence, and they explicitly want us dead.
These fuckers are not mentally fit to vote. They should be quarantined for their own safety and the safety of society at large.
And to my esteemed voyeurs lurking from Conservative Sewer and The Disasterist, you can go fuck yourselves too.

These assholes imagine themselves as brave Defenders of Freedom, but they're terrified of everything. One of them in the discussion obviously called me Snowflake, but you'll meet no more pitiable coward than a Rightwing bigot.

(17,984 posts)The only change I would recommend is to remind them that antifa is protecting America and its Constitution from the distinctly un-American pro-tRumpers. That would really set them off.

(63,216 posts)A while back I realized that these simpletons are immune to reason and evidence, and they aren't even swayed by personal tragedy. If Herr Trump gets his way, then one of the locals faces catastrophic, life-changing cuts to her child's healthcare. Still, she trusts that he's doing the right thing for the right reason, and that his heart's in the right place.
I have no interest in deprogramming these passionate advocates for their own destruction.
However, I also know that my Red-voting county has a number of progressives lurking in its pages, so I make it a point to be a pain in the ass to these idiot racist fuckheads, if only to show my fellow progressives that they're not alone in this wilderness of stupidity. Several have messaged me to thank me for speaking out, in fact, so I keep at it.

(4,483 posts)and deliver these excellent responses. Like most people, I guess, it takes me a few days to come up with the real zinger that will demolish my opponent's position. Then, for some reason, they don't seem to know what I'm talking about (sarcasm here).

(22,976 posts)You're right, Orrex, they wouldn't hesitate to see us all dead or in a labor camp. For all their incessant blather about "liberty," "small government," "fiscal responsibility," and being a good "patriot," it's really about not making a single sacrifice and doing what's NOT good for America.

I decided to see what those conservative websites actually are.
Of course I didn't find either Conservative Sewer or The Disasteris.
So I googled something like top conservative websites.. and got a list of 100 !!
I picked The Blaze, just at random..
Wholeee shitzger..
I read 3-4 'stories?" "Articles"? maybe right wing readers' Digest is a better name.
There was almost nothing in them that I could disagree with. Yes, you read that right. I couldn't really disagree with pretty much anything in them.
because,.,,
There was NOTHING in them....
There was one about the difference btw the ACA and the Repub Deathcare-- but.. almost factless.
One about Hillary "Criticizing malania about not working to stop bullying, something like that.. That was the headline. But in the "stooree" with actual quotes there WAS NO criticism..
And there was another one I forget..
I'm sure I missed the really good ones...
Too much Zwack. I recommend it.

I think you would be upset if a car hit one of your Nazi friends protesting a law like something against rape of women.
Oh, by the way from your comment about animals deserving to be hurt just because they are animals pretty much makes me extremely suspicious that you abuse your children, wife, and animals. Probably physically, sexually, and psychologically.
That is what I have to say.

Hillary won the popular vote. There are more of us than them. Remember that. We don't need them. We do need to GOTV everywhere. We need to have candidates running at all levels of government.

(63,216 posts)This brave representative has vowed to shoot the person who he alleges to have pooped in the representative's yard.
Not kidding. He posted a picture of himself on Facebook with a gun and a clear warning to the anonymous alleged pooper.
And his drooling constituents had a collective orgasm over it. They reverently declare that, much like Trump, this rep isn't afraid to say what he thinks.

(20,219 posts)They wanna barge into the town saloon with a dead niXXXr over one shoulder and belly up to the bar where the friendly bartender will pour them a shot and a cold one, while sexy ladies swoon over them.
They're loudmouthed idiots who think their 'TUDE places them ahead of everyone.
I liked your slap downs.
They're anti-antifa but they never have a word of criticism for Nazis.
They are raw sewage.

(63,216 posts)As you may have discerned, I don't shy away from a chance to be a loudmouth, which works just fine here on DU with the rest of you loudmouths, because we're all rowing in basically the same direction.
On my community's unofficial Facebook page, Trump's chumps are the vocal and overwhelming majority, so it really does create the impression that my Red-voting county is entirely composed of idiot racist fuckheads.
And I continue to post there, calling out their racist, sexist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic and generally bigoted bullshit, because I want silent progressives to know that they aren't alone in town, even if they're understandably afraid to speak out.
What really encourages me, however, is the occasional "thank you" message I get from one of them, or a simple "like" of one of my posts from someone who doesn't otherwise chime in.
That's the lesson and the valuable reminder: we progressives are everywhere, even in the heart of RedMerica, and even if we're often drowned out by the screeching assholes as they prostrate themselves before their idiot god king.
So to any DUer in a similar community, keep up the noise. Even if you don't feel like you're having an impact, there's a good chance that you're giving hope to a silent neighbor reading from the sidelines.
