I disagree with this. What the left is doing since the Trump election is the worst it's ever been. Rioting, protesting, acting like children. I hated the day Obama was elected but the right didn't take to the streets rioting. We continued to go to work and pay our taxes to support the damned leftist leeches on society.

Exactly.

Good points.

I do not do FB anymore.

r/politics and r/the_donald are their own safe spaces for their collective sides, each filled with ridiculous posts

All media is terrible right now.

If someone was to make a new news channel that had ZERO opinion/commentary, and only reported the news, they would make a lot of money.

You are one of the most toxic people on here.

The amount of people who upvote some of your shite and agree with you shows how fricked this place can be. But you also get told to STFU a lot.

This board is pretty tame compared to other forums outside of TD. There are a few unreasonable posters on both sides here, but if you venture to reddit....holy shite. It's a gathering of extreme dumbasses.

ETA: The public media is far more dangerous than this board will ever be. Here, anyone can have a voice. In the media, your voice only matters if they want to fit you into their agendas.

Reddit is farther left than this place is right. Anyone who attempts to gauge political or social climate from the Internet, especially a place like Reddit, is misguided beyond help. And part of the problem.

Maybe, just maybe if liberals quit blowing every single thing out of proportion in an attempt to destroy Trump's reputation, this wouldn't be happening.

Like making a thread about an inauguration poster with a typo, and acting like Trump himself made the poster.

Very entertaining to read - you just need to sort the replies by controversial.

In the 20+ years since the 'net started catching on and message boards proliferated, people went onto them and called other people stupid.

Might as well rail against the (ocean) tide.
