33. I WISH I could find a way toward sympathy.
Sat Apr 8, 2017, 04:59 PM
Apr 2017

All I've got is one word: Deplorable.

If you voted for trump, you are deplorable. Not to mention how gullible a mark you were - to believe him, even while he was lying to you. And how gullible a mark you were that you swallowed, whole, without even chewing, ANY AND ALL lies about Hillary Clinton.

I've mentioned elsewhere that I find it most illuminating to read the comments after some editorial or news story. There are still trolls out there trolling. And weeks AFTER that unforgivable loon Alex Jones had to eat his own shit about Pizzagate and that child sex/sexual molestation/sexual fill-in-the-blank-here operation purportedly going on in the back room of that DC pizza joint, which was so phony that even he had to apologize and acknowledge he was wrong - never mind! There were STILL dingdongs in those comment sections who STILL believed that Hillary was running that fictitious child sex-whatever ring - even up to and including not just molestation or fornication but cannibalism.

And they still wanna believe that shit? Well, then, I no longer bother trying to sympathize, or "understand" where they're coming from. I've heard, seen, and read enough to know.
