| fatslob-:O said: @JWeinCom So we should automatically feel alienated about our VERY OWN CITIZENS despite the only difference being that they're presidential candidates, am I right ?! That's just naive when we have MANY past examples of leaders in history that says otherwise for their war crimes, leaders only exist to deliver what they want or in the case of a democracy what the people want. They have NO OBLIGATION and I repeat NO OBLIGATION to be the best individual in a nation relative to anyone's measures and even in a democracy it DOES NOT GUARANTEE that no matter how much you wish it ... NOTHING and I mean NOTHING will absolutely change that FACT for whatever anyone says ... |
YES!!! YES WE SHOULD! YES YOU ARE RIGHT! Because the "only difference" of being a presidential candidate is a BIG FUCKING DIFFERENCE! I expect my team's quarterback to be better at throwing a ball then me. I expect my surgeon to be better at surgery than me. I expect my mechanic to know more about cars than me. And I expect my presidential candidates to be better than me at making informed decisions, knowing about foreign policy, and not engendering hatred and violence. THEY WILL HAVE THE POWER TO END THE FUCKING WORLD AND THAT IS NOT A FUCKING EXAGGERATION! THEY WILL LITERALLY HAVE THE FUCKING POWER TO END THE WORLD! THEY WILL LITERALLY HAVE THE FUCKING POWER TO END THE WORLD! I KNOW I'M REPEATING THAT BECAUSE IT'S REALLY FUCKING IMPORTANT!
They don't have any obligation to be anything. YOU'RE THE ONE WITH THE FUCKING OBLIGATION. YOU have the obligation to TAKE IT FUCKING SERIOUSLY WHEN A CANDIDATE SAYS HE WOULD FORCE THE ARMED SERVICE TO INTENTIONALLY MURDER CIVILIANS. YOU have the obligation to TAKE IT FUCKING SERIOUSLY WHEN A CANDIDATE SAYS WE SHOULD CONSIDER A DATABASE FOR MEMBERS OF A CERTAIN RELIGION. YOU have an obligation to TAKE IT FUCKING SERIOUSLY WHEN A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DOESN'T KNOW A GOD DAMN THING ABOUT FOREIGN AFFAIRS. YOU have an obligation to TAKE IT FUCKING SERIOUSLY WHEN A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SAYS THAT MOST MEMBERS OF A PARTICULAR RACE ARE RAPISTS AND DRUG DEALERS. YOU have and obligation to TAKE IT SERIOUSLY WHEN A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDAT INCITES RACIAL HATRED BY TWEETING IMAGES THAT SAY 81% OF WHITE HOMOCIDE VICTIMS ARE KILLED BY BLACK PEOPLE. YOU have the obligation to TAKE IT FUCKING SERIOUSLY WHEN SOMEONE WILL NOT DENOUNCE THE FORMER GRAND WIZARD OF THE KLU KLUX KLAN AND PRETENDS HE DOESN'T KNOW WHO HE IS DESPITE HAVING SPOKEN ABOUT HIM IN PAST INTERVIEWS. And this is not demonizing. Trump has said all of these things point blank.
I know that democracy doesn't guarantee the best candidate or a particularly good one. I know that because about 90% of my family was killed by a democratically elected leader, and it's simply dumb luck that my family got kicked out of Germany before shit went down, or else I wouldn't be here right now. And you know how leaders like that get into power?
WHEN PEOPLE DON'T HOLD THEIR CANDIDATES TO HIGHER FUCKING STANDARDS THAN RANDOM FUCKERS ON A GOD DAMN VIDEO GAME MESSAGE BOARD AND ARE WILLING TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY WHEN CANDIDATES OPENLY SUGGEST VIOLENCE, INCITE RACISM, ADVOCATE WAR CRIMES, AND GENERALLY SHOW THEMSELVES TO BE IGNORANT DERANGED FUCKTARDS.
God damn it. I don't even have anything against the legitimate Trump supporters. If you're the kind of person who is ignorant enough to actually support that shit, then you're too god damn stupid to even be angry at. It's like getting angry at a dog for rubbing its ass on the carpet. What pisses me off, frankly, is people like you. I'm fairly sure that you're smart enough to realize how dangerous the shit Trump is saying is, and I'm fairly sure you're decent enough to not support it. But for whatever reason, you refuse to actually hold Trump accountable for any of it. I mean, to be more upset about liberals being uncivil to Trump than Trump advocating this shit... What the fuck. If you honestly don't expect more from YOUR choice for president than you expect out of some fucker like me on the internet, then you're part of the problem.
