Some of my favourites:

Fake news IS terrorism.

Pretty big difference between the two.

Yup, conservative terrorism by emasuclated white men, inspired by the incitement of violence by Trump.

Oh here we go...

50% of the people who think fake news is a problem are the people who think CNN, ABC, NBC, etc are fake news. The terrorists are in this 50%. Btw, definitely not saying those news organizations are great. They are mega corporations with their own interests. They just so happen to be against the current president.

The other 50% are the people you’re referring to, who know it’s the outright propaganda outlets like fox and brietbart that are the problem.

(Your side bad, mine good!!)

Whiteness was invented for the slave trade.

Oh, I see, it all makes sense now!

So do you or don't you admit that the "white race" was in fact invented?

Invented?

Did you know Arabs were enslaving people before Europeans turned up? I'm sure someone has told you this before. Did Arabs invent whiteness?

At least someone is trying to be sensible. (So they try to time him up in semantics about exactly WHEN the term "Arab" came about... lol)

Especially the lie that Islamist's are the cause of most terrorism, when we know it's Christian white males.

back to it...

Anyway, I just can't continue reading this cesspit.

Oh believe me - I know, r/politics is gone - but it's the types of people that (seem to) exist there, can't believe people like that are real... the brainwashing is strong.

I do believe a large number of them are paid. Or at least interns or something for some large organization.

Bots and shills... (and NPCs?) everywhere.
Reddit as usual.

They want to forget the kids who were locked in cages, and the massacre at the Pittsburgh Synagogue.

We should never let them forget. Every person who voted for this shares responsibility.

That does it. If there was any doubt remaining I now know I must vote for President Trump. If it pisses off assholes like this, that's a good thing.

It's r/politics , nothing new there, it's lost in a long while.

well prob. because more people are dumb then smart- how you think Trump got president- so if your dumb/or not really smart/have good insight intelligence you cant see if something is real or stupid/so fake...maybe also because lots of Americans are shortminded because they dont look further then the USA (like the whole world is the USA, everything thats real or great only happends in the USA USA USA USA 🙄)

This is a positive sign, because most of the "terrorism" is fake news.
