    Conservatism turned toxic: Donald Trump’s fanbase has no actual ideology, just a nihilistic hatred of liberals

    Trump’s fans on Twitter and niche sites like QBN don’t seem to think that he’ll improve the economy or foreign relations or anything at all, really. In fact, they seem wholly opposed to the concept of improvement. Their worship of the man lies with their belief that he’s an agent of destruction, who will hurt people they have been trained by the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity to believe are evil.

    Libtards, snowflakes, birther movement, red pilling, anti college educated, pizza gate, alt right, fake news, Clinton News Network, Breitbart, Crooked Hillary, conversion therapy...I mean - how can one even begin to engage in a thoughtful debate when most republicans inject at least 3 of these buzzword catch phrases in each conversation like little man sheep being baaaaaaaaaaaad lil robots

    • I noticed no one here can actually defend Trump, it's just "whatabout Hillary"yuekit
    • Yup, the smugness is palpable. If by 2020 some of you haven't done a bit of self reflection this type of shit will clinch trump another 4
      ********
    • Almost as palpable as the hypocrisy and denial of false promises.monospaced
    • Exactly mono, we'll just see what "he" does for ya'll these next 4 years while you focus on keeping Christ in Christmas...whatthefunk
    • that's the same type of topic changing non sequitur that ukit was just talking about. what were you saying about hypocrisy?
      ********
    • and what's with the quotation marks around 'he', lol
      ********
    • in lieu of italics, which aren't supported, I use quotes in comments for emphasis which is acceptable punctuationwhatthefunk
    • but what the hell were you on about again, I can't seem to follow your stream of unintelligible nonsense w/o references...whatthefunk
    • here's a hint, it's out of touch, sanctimonious crap like this post of yours that made a trump win possible. when you get done with your moral outrage maybe you
      ********
    • will be objective to how your shitty attitude contributes negatively to this mess we are all in
      ********
    • my outrage is at the uneducated americans, not moral at all, and my attitude is against ignorance. I voted blue, what can I do?whatthefunk
    • Yup. Still denial and ignorance of blatant hypocrisy. Not a non sequiter either.monospaced
    • If anyone actually voted for Trump because of "smugness" or because liberals were mean to them on Facebook, that's pretty ridiculous isn't it?yuekit
    • Sounds exactly like what the left is often accused of, voting based on emotions. I wouldn't think conservatives would want to be associated with that.yuekit
    • what can you do? you can stop being a sanctimonious prick and see your self out of the circle jerk and maybe affect some positive change
      ********
    • t_c: isn't this discourse an example of change, we're discussing, no? I've yet to sling an insult as you have so...whatthefunk
    • t_c: take a breath man, you're getting all wound up over nothing, chill and chatwhatthefunk
    • your whole post is nothing but an attempt to insult people with a political opinion different from your own, that's not how to have a discussion. that's how to
      ********
    • have a internet high five circle-jerk with a forum full of far left creative types, supremely lazy thinking
      ********
    • t_c: sure, I disagree and combat your ideas with sarcasm, irony, insults, and jokes yet I'm attempting to discuss as I am with omg...whatthefunk
    • t_c: I have no allegiance with others here, I'm a lurker primarily but this thread brought me out a bit. I'm not as far left as you think...whatthefunk
    • t_c: I'm simply hoping to be proven wrong yet I've never come across a Trumper who's convinced me otherwisewhatthefunk
    • i'm not interested in convincing you of anything other than that being a sanctimonious prick is counterproductive
      ********
    • t_c: you use the word sanctimonious in every other comment, you'd be able to get more words into posts if you found a different wordwhatthefunk
    • t_c: so, you're butt hurt now and don't want to discuss?!? Why are you here then?whatthefunk
    • why would i need a different word when the word sanctimonious sums up your behavior so perfectly. i want to discuss why you think being a sanctimonious prick
      ********
    • does anything other than add to the division and lack of understanding that caused trump to get elected
      ********
    • t_c: yet you embody and prove all points against you. As you say, you're in the QBN liberal snake pit yet you make no effort to assimilate.whatthefunk
    • t_c: It's so easy to post a meme, upvote a comment, but an attempt at discourse is hard for you.whatthefunk
    • t_c: Trump got elected b/c 7mm+ dems didn't show up to polls, not b/c of some conservative uprising, don't get it twistedwhatthefunk
    • you pretend that you want discourse after basically calling republicans evil. what a ridiculously reductive stance to take, not the opening of someone who want
      ********
    • -s a 'discourse'
      ********
    • not sure what you are talking about with meme posting or assimilation, i think you must have me confused with someone
      ********
    • t_c: Ya'll start to sound the same to me, just being real.whatthefunk
    • and you sound the same as all the rest of the black and white thinkers who demonize people with different beliefs than you while looking for internet high fives
      ********
    • t_c: That's not me and you know it, couldn't care less about fake internet points.whatthefunk
    • t_c: yet, you still say I'm to blame, liberals are the reason why we're here. You're more anti liberal than you're pro Trump, correct?whatthefunk
    • nope, theres nothing liberal about you hateful yuppies shitting all over large swaths of this country that you know nothing about
      ********
    • t_c: that's just a shortcut to thinking but it suits you I guess. You embody the prejudice that you claim to oppose and make no attempt to hide it. Merry Xmaswhatthefunk
    • your post was the opposite of thought provoking and served no purpose other than to get internet high fives from the other hatefull sore losers. have fun with y
      ********
    • -our shitty feelings and contentment in ignorance
      ********
    • t_c: I agree, the post was pure troll yet it resonated with you, curious. Did it make you, wait for it, think? Hope you're ok :(whatthefunk

    • i must have hit a nerve, makes sense, the word sums you up perfectly
      ********
    • t_c: Just trying to help educate, repetitive vocabulary is unbecoming...and destructive.whatthefunk
    • your wit on the other hand is groan worthy. go back to lurking
      ********
    • t_c: alright, you used the thesaurus link, nice! That actually sounded original, my work is done here...whatthefunk
