So today at work was a shitshow. And me, being the enlightened.. being that I am, decided to engage in c..civil.. discourse with.. Trump supporters.
A year and a half later, and they’re still spouting the ‘You’re just butthurt that Hillary lost!’ mantra.
‘You get all your news from mainstream media!’ That’s a bold assumption from someone who seems to get all their news from the holy trinity of Milo Yiannopoulos, Paul Joseph Watson, and Ben Shapiro.
I think they didn’t really know what to do with me when I didn’t start yelling insults back at them. I just kept on talking. Trying. Yearning to reach even one of them. I think I kind of might have. I don’t know.
It's frustrating because these kinds of people claim to be Intelligent and have the capacity for Civil Discussion
when it's grossly untrue and they're just smug about the information they cherry pick
You want to shout back, you want to just throw up your hands and call them idiots, but that just gives them satisfaction too?? You really just can't win.
You’re so right T__T It’s the most frustrating situation.
Best moment though was this one dorknozzle who posted two links to some news articles in rebuttal to something I claimed, and then he goes ‘Had enough??’
I’m still laughing about it.
This is why I don't use Facebook that much, lol
Civil discourse doesn't work with these people because they refuse to be civil
They gotta resort to the UR JUST MAD HILERY LOST and HURR DURR DEM LIBTARDS
LIBERAL TEARS. HAW HAW HAW. HYECK HYECK HYECK. GA-HYUCK. MY WILLFUL IGNORANCE IS LITERALLY DESTROYING OUR CIVILIZATION.
