    Seriously, WHAT is THE DEAL with conservative disinformationists scattering ALL-CAPS WORDS throughout EVERYTHING they WRITE?

    My THEORY is that it’s MEANT as a SUBSTITUTE for LOGIC and REASON - that in LIEU of saying things that are ACTUALLY logical, reasonable or true, they JUST say things really LOUDLY.

    It MUST be TRUE because it’s so EMPHATIC, right?

    And it PROBABLY triggers a PAVLOVIAN response in the DUNDERHEADS who READ it. “LOOK at all the CAPS! This is MY kind of TRUTHINESS!”

    It’s just… WEIRD. And sort of PATHETIC.

      If you Want to be REALLY TRUMPIAN you need to also Sprinkle in a Bunch of words that are Merely Capitalized rather than Always using ALL CAPS!!!1

      It’s because instead of using logic to reason, they use emotion: usually outrage, fear, uncertainty, anger, distrust. All while of course projecting the ‘overly emotional and illogical’ stamp onto “bleeding heart liberals”.

      Caps conveys what their audience pays attention to.

      It’s a form of poetry that appeals to skimmers who want the tone and feeling with the fewest possible nouns to remember.

    I’m saving this when she inevitably cuts a deal to throw Trump under the bus for leniency

        I think she got banned from them, back when they were a normal social media platform. And she locked herself to one door, so everyone going in used the other door and didn’t care. Someone else posted a link about it.

    I must say that I am willing for him to go to jail with Trump.

    Sombwody’s in wuuuuuvvvv.

    She won’t go to jail for him though. This is just a preliminary call for all the fascists to get ready to incite violence if he loses the election.
