The age of information has ruined politics.

The same thing here. Most people I know that are dedicated to trump simply hate left politics so much that they are choosing the only provided opposite to something they see as imminently and permanently damaging.

I agree.

I think there's an additional disconnect because the illiberal left and Trumptards are the only people who can't seem to tell the difference between Twitter and real life. The left you see on Twitter is not real. And by not real, I mean they don't vote and don't do any of the important jobs or make any of the important decisions.

I know there are many who might finish that last sentence with "yet". I have no rebuttal for that other than to say I sure as hell hope not.

Apples and oranges. Parties consolidating under the Nazi umbrella didn't want socialism which was largely being forced upon them by antifa Jews. Shouldn't have overpushed.

scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

You mean, like, mob rule? Where the a literally retarded person's vote offsets a genius'? Like that kind of "true democracy"?

Was Lenin operating a true democracy? Was Mao? How bout Stalin, Gorbachev, Putin? Who is operating a true democracy?

Should a heroin addict with an addled mind be given an equal vote? How about someone with alcohol-induced Dementia? Are you advocating a system where we are ruled by the most persuasive Pied Piper?

So like, if someone had to write (and pass) a test to vote, a direct democracy might actually work?

Possibly. However, while narcissism is fairly easy to detect, it's very difficult to detect sociopathy in individuals, as socioathy insinuates a cunning that is impossible to assess if the individual is familiar with DSM V, and other personality inventories as they assume honesty/naivete in the assessment of projectionary psychology.

I promise you that the internet has not done as much damage as CNN and FOX have done.

But they try to brainwash people to think it's the internets fault so people keep following them. And it works because even smart people need daddies.

Yes I try to tell my family members this. The posts that incite them to hate the left so much are shown to them specifically for that purpose. Usually its some completely wrong thought that demonstrates that the left and the viewer are so far from seeing eye to eye that there is no hope whatsoever. Equivilent to "Yeah, here on the left, 2+2 has never equaled 4, its always 11, and always will be" but about something you care about, and the post makes it seem like everyone on the left agrees with it, so you feel like you have insight into the absolute insanity on "the other side"

The people on the left that hate the right so much have the exact same but opposite experience to ensure them that the right can never be reconciled with.

Its all just to keep you from wondering if it was a good idea to print 6 trillion dollars (thats 6 million millions) and give them away to your favorite pals, and wondering if thats a good idea for the country, and if forcing small businesses to close while amazon and target and costco stay open 100% was a good idea, or totally fucked. Because all of this was done by the left and right overlords to sell you down the river, but in the mean time you're busy being afraid of or hating your actual neighbor who was bent over just like you.

Thats true. The internet is just the current vehicle of brain stomp.
