We are a nation of rules and the rules are boring. Embrace that. In times of difficulty, go with the boring option. When faced with a frightening crisis, tamp it down with ultra-boring moves. No matter what, stick with the rules.

I can’t avoid talking about Donald Trump but I’m going to make it brief. I know you don’t like him; neither do I. But let’s assume he’s only a politician. He’s not Hitler, Godzilla or the Beast of the Apocalypse—just a guy with a loud mouth and a desperate need for attention. Most Americans think of him that way.

This is not about him. It’s about you.

    Please report anyone using the r-slur. It’s one of the few things I will just remove immediately.

      I’m aware you will. But that’s not the point I was trying to get across.

      My point is that this writer is saying “you get treated how you treat others, so democrats don’t be rude”, but no matter what I do I am met with insult.

      What about users whose name contains Hitler and makes fun of rape. Is that cool too, my lord? Or is it mein fuhrer?

        Its vulgar, sure, but imo not really a reason to do much of anything about. And Im not a lord or leader or a fuhrer. I’m a random guy who made a community and started posting stuff. That’s what I am.

          Ok cool just making sure we have a precedence of you approving “Hitler” as vulgar, but “not really a reason to do much of anything about it”

          Later, Hitler.

              I mean, I won’t call you a N-word (not the racist one, the one synonymous with conservatives) loving hypocrite, but since you’re down for Hitler—apparently there is a difference—I’ll stick to that.
