- the thing that gets me most is how different everyday life could be. censorship in news, movies. everything I love in the mdeia could be gutted. -- nm - university of amanda jones Jan 9, 08:46 4
  - Yep. This may sound silly, but the extent to which the National Enquirer has become a full on propaganda paper for Trump is stunning. - pmb Jan 9, 08:59 2
    - wow, I hadn't even heard of that. -- nm - Max Jan 9, 09:01 1
      - Dude, Ted Cruz's father... JFK... this is where it took root. -- nm - Spawn Jan 9, 09:03
  - as of this past weekend, we now get two different Saturday papers. I wanted to support the press in a (small, but) real way. -- nm* - Andie Jan 9, 08:50

- your trolling here? oh, it's getting close. -- nm - mud Jan 9, 08:17 5
  - I don't think groiny is trolling. It lends itself to a legitimate question of talk over action though. - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:23 4
    - right, like it or not, the guy is in. Short of a bullet, nothing is gonna change that now. - groiny Jan 9, 08:25 3
      - If Trump did email we could email him The Ring video. - Spawn Jan 9, 08:33
      - there will be a lot of decisions made in the next four years. If politicians think no-one cares they can take the path of least resistance and just - Andie Jan 9, 08:30

- So what if it does? If it's loud enough it will still get people's attention. -- nm - znufrii Jan 9, 08:16 6
  - exhibit #1,000,000,000 on how Trump is an asshole. - groiny Jan 9, 08:22 5
    - serious question: how do you think social change happens? -- nm - Andie Jan 9, 08:36 4
      - it kind of just did. -- nm - groiny Jan 9, 08:37 3
        
        it certainly did. and it happened (in part) because Trump shouted everyone down. So, the other side needs fight back. -- nm - Andie Jan 9, 08:44 2
        
        I think you are giving him too much credit. -- nm - groiny Jan 9, 08:47 1
        
        He won because we *didn't*. -- nm - Spawn Jan 9, 08:48

  - Nice. -- nm - znufrii Jan 9, 08:14
- Some of it undoubtedly will become shouting into the wind. But what's the alternative? -- nm - ty97 Jan 9, 08:13 8
  - I don't have the answer to that. -- nm - groiny Jan 9, 08:14 7
    - I would say the last eight years of Tea Party shouting was ignored, and look where/who it got us. - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:19 6
      - more - it didn't become white noise for people who liked the message, and kept them fired up in opposition. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 08:26 1
        
        Exactly, and was pshawed by the actual majority in this country. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:34

        being quiet and 'getting along to get along' is not worth it. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 08:30 2
