I don't think it would have quite the same effect on me personally

Hopefully you're right.

Ironic that Trump and his supporters have been demonizing the media, yet they are in many ways to blame for his success.

https://newrepublic.com/article/138502/shame-us-american-media

Here, major media outlets failed abysmally. The best illustration of this came just days ago, when a media monitor tallied the amount of time nightly news broadcasts devoted to stories about Clinton’s emails, and the amount of time they devoted to stories about all policy matters combined, and found that the former exceeded the latter. On any given Sunday morning, network news shows host panels of journalists, nearly all of whom are fluent in the esoteric details of Clinton’s email practices, but many of whom couldn’t tell you how Trump’s tax plan works. As a result, if Trump were to win, millions of people would expect him to enact a populist agenda, even as his own campaign promises to raise taxes on millions of middle-income workers, privatize roads, and deregulate Wall Street.

I felt like my choices were to either be castrated with a rusty spoon, or being raped with the wide end of a tennis racket.

You seem like the type who would vote Trump.

Care to explain that? What have I ever said on this forum that would give you that incredibly stupid assumption? Why, because I am a Republican? I'm also not a lemming.

Chill, man. I only said it for the sake of saying it.

Oh fuck you


That was a very stressful time at the voting booth. I'm still trying to decompress

I'm not so confident. I believe in the "cold civil war" as it's called. I also believe that the fundamentals of the economy and government are disrupted by accelerating technological change, and right now is as slow as those changes will happen in the future. So adjustments need to be made. I'm just not sure it's going to be solved in a generation, nor do I think the political part is anything more than superficial.

A lot of problems will be solved through technology rather than politics. The only way to make medical care affordable is through regenerative medicine. You can make as many bills about it as you want, it's still going to be the only way, keeping people young. It's bound to happen.

But that doesn't mean politics are merely superficial. In fact I'd argue that in the 20th century alone mankind achieved many great things through politics (albeit obviously after we did many terrible things through politics). And social media might make it difficult to control campaigns and they might make people want to jump to conclusions, but in the end we will learn to deal with these media too and see them for what they are. A generation growing up with social media will know not to trust it at all times.

I just voted

Whichever way you voted, at least today it really did matter.

Lol. He's really not. You know who votes for Trump? White guys in their early 30's who think they know it all and demand a change, but want it to come in the form of a conservative, because as they're getting older, they don't want the world to think they're idealistic. In other words, the stupidest people alive right now.

Taking the country back to the good ol fifties. Where blacks were treated as shit, women were treated as donkeys and gays were shamed out of existence.

Funny you support Trump, bro. Have fun getting stopped and frisked on a daily basis

Not so much the presidential part, but to fill out the phone-book-sized ballot in San Francisco, this is hilarious for all our state and local ballot measures:
