Hopefully you don't live in the US, as that's a not so thinly-veiled threat/incitement to kill the President, which is a felony.
No, my "lot" has never made even the slightest implication of threat or incitement to violence or murder. You trying to justify your illegal behavior with a tu quoque fallacy doesn't help you any. And whatever extremists may have made threats against Obama were never endorsed by me, nor anyone I know. So you're the only extremist here.
I'm about as convinced of the veracity of these claims as I am about your claim that Trump supporters know when he's "joking." (However, I suspect, despite appearances to the contrary, that you probably know when I am joking.)
And weren't you previously championing "freedom of expression," or something along those lines?
I really don't care what goes on in your fevered imaginings. Probably whatever you need to tell yourself to justify your own objectively bad behavior.
And? Everyone is free to just say stuff and bs on social media. It's your own personal problem if you take it all as gospel truth.
It's probably your own fevered imaginations about many things including the way society should be that needs to be looked into and questioned.
Well obviously the vast majority of posters on this forum certainly reject your own personal problems and bullshit even if under the banner of your so called rights.
"Fevered imaginings?" And "objectively bad behavior?" I suppose that's somewhat like depictions of a penis being "objectively pornographic." I'm not so sure that I ought to be the one overly concerned with fever-induced delirium here.
Are you addressing me here, or was that intended as a "note to self?"
Fevered imaginings, like your incredulity about what Trump supporters know.
Depends on if you're foolish enough to take everything Trump says seriously. I don't.
Could you provide some simple guidelines then for making such an assessment?
Perhaps you could try using the confederate flag as an avatar and see what happens?
so you think the president of the USA was elected and is being paid to be a comedian?
The objectively graphic includes the objectively pornographic (hence the suffix -graphic).
Sure, it's called the principle of charity. If it seems outlandish or hyperbolic, it's likely not 100% serious. And if you can't make that distinction between anything Trump says (believing it all to be either 100% serious or 100% outlandish), the problem likely lies with your failure to comprehend views unlike your own. If so, maybe try getting out of your bubble.
The problem with Trump is that much of what he says is outlandish, or - more often - just plain wrong.
What a bizarre thing to suggest...
What's funny about the Trump supporters constantly trying to reinterpret what Trump says (to make him sound sane) is how often he tosses them right under the bus.
You may be close enough to "believing it all to be either 100% serious or 100% outlandish" that there's no effective difference. Again, "the problem likely lies with your failure to comprehend views unlike your own".
No, the audience is to blame when they always stubbornly insist on the least charitable take on anything said, but hypocritically only from political opponents.
You trying to lump me in with people who've said things I never have is transparently intellectually dishonest. I never said Trump was joking about less testing. I said what I just told QQ: "The fact is that the number of cases doesn't mean much when the number of cases is diverging from the number of hospitalizations and deaths. "
