@FourthAlt's comment on 'r/politics: Mindbogglingly people might have different opinion than us :marseypearlclutch2:'

https://old.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1dplkzj/a_mindboggling_number_of_voters_who_could_decide/

At this point we're gonna need a required civics competency exam for both voters and candidates if this unapologetic stupidity doesn't stop.

That's racist :marseyblackpearlclutch:

Propaganda works, and we're drowning in it. Unfortunately the good guys don't use it, because they tend to find mass social manipulation with crude psychosocial engineering techniques kinda immoral. So the most effective propaganda is largely produced by our enemies, foreign and domestic.

What we do is not propaganda chud! We're just teaching you how to be a decent human being :soyreddit:

more than that, I feel like the sportification of politics has caused some people to just blindly select the "trump good biden bad" option in these polls, no matter what the prompt is.

He says this with zero hints of irony :soysnooseethetyping:

Not sure where you're from, partner, but in the USA, some people pronounce Fascism kinda funny like…That may help explain the headline a bit.

The party of the working class :marseyrevolution:

The irony is the one who said he'd be a dictator "only on day one" is none other than Trump, not Biden, facts. The mainstream media doesn't realize Trump will shut down the "lugenpresse" if he gets re-elected within a year of his second term, watch.

Burger dramatards you must go and vote for Trump now :marseybegging:

Some people believe that the government is ran by a deep state cabal and the only way to fix things and to restore democracy is to let Trump rule as a dictator so he can clean house and purge all of the rogue elements.

Once again, no hints of irony :marseynoyou:

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” -- George Carlin

Words of wisdom, weirdly… but this seems to be ignorance of a new order. Can so many really not know any better?

So close and yet so far :marseyspecial:

Nate Silver the Fivethirtyeight dude has Trump most likely to win the election at the moment based on all the poll data. He's not trying to make it a close race to increase revenue. People need to realise that Trump has a better or equal chance of winning than Biden right now.

Fivethirtyeight is an aggregate site, and they haven't gotten an election right since 2012.

Not true they gave trump a much much higher chance of winning than anyone else, they also predicted the Biden win.

What was that question about choosing to live in ignorance again? :marseysmug2:

😈Satan could show up to America and claim he's the real victim and he's the one trying to save democracy and people will vote for him over Jesus.

Odd, I don't remember chuds claiming that Satan is the real hero of the Bible :marseyquestion:

The 2012 election was the last election with decent candidates. The fact that you have to choose between a corrupt fascist billionaire and an 81 year old war monger tells you everything you need to know about the state of American democracy. Please travel a lot more. It doesn't have to be like that. Mobilize, educate yourselves. A better system is possible. Look beyond American politics and understand that you've been living in a nationalist regime with neoliberal policies disguised as a democracy.

>please travel a lot more

This is such a bougie 'advice', just take time off work and spend all your savings to travel the world until you agree with me :marseyeyeroll:

In 1950, 5 years after the end of World War II, there was a nationwide survey in Germany that asked if Adolf Hitler was good for Germany. Remember that almost every German town got blasted to smithereens, and at the end of the war, 70 year old men and 10-year-old boys were guarding most cities. An astonishing 25% of the German people said that Adolf was good for Germany. Those same people are the ones that you are referring to in these "surveys" that think that drumpf would be good for the US.

This has nothing to do with Trump but it allows me to mention him and Hitler in the same paragraph so get worried already and vote for my side :marsey57:

Yes I'm double posting.

This comment wasn't even particularly related to Trump v Biden. It's probably one of the largest :l: 's in the thread though.

I was a mistake. My mother told me this a lot. My life is a perfect example of what happens when you're an unwanted person. Everything is falling apart right now because I just found out that I have a lot of trauma that's been affecting me my whole life, basically.

I fell in love with a woman with children. It's the first time I've ever known the feeling of being part of a family. It's been crazy, but one thing it has done is spotlight a lot of mental health issues I didn't know I had; like for example, when the children aren't listening or they start yelling so voices get raised, I suddenly want to curl up into a ball on the floor. I start having trouble breathing, cold sweats come on hard, my mind races... All while in my head I'm feeling fine; no bad thoughts or anything, just my body starts doing this stuff involuntarily, and then once my mind finally catches up I have a really hard time functioning.

It really sucks. And it's making it so i have to leave to go take care of these issues so they don't affect the kids. It really hurts to have to lose the person you love because you didn't know you were broken.

Holy shit. Imagine being one of these children, your mom brings her boyfriend around and whenever you raise your voice (as a child), he suffers a fricking panic attack and has to vacate the room immediately. I really can't imagine anything more pathetic. I don't even think carp is this pathetic.
