What does Trump do that will make life for Autistics worse?

Post Reply New Topic

There are lots of reasons to dislike Trump, I'd say being a republican is the least of them.

And no 90% of the media is not 'democrat' where did you get that from? Most of the mainstream media is corporate more than anything.

How exactly is it a bad thing?

When women talk about their right to have an abortion and their right to paid maternity leave, that is a form of identity politics.

When black people talk about the abuse that they have suffered at the hands of racist cops, that is a form of identity politics.

Neither of those things are inherently bad. Any issue that puts innocent human lives in danger deserves our attention.

Identity politics only becomes bad when it begins to spiral out of control. That's one of the reasons why Clinton lost the election. She basically said "How can I be part of the establishment? I'm a woman!"

I've always hated the "A woman president will solve everything!" card. It certainly didn't work in England. Margaret Thatcher was a woman, but she didn't care about the rights of any woman except herself. Queen Victoria was similar. There are plenty of female leaders and female billionaires who only care about their own rights.

"Feminists ought to get a good whipping."
- Queen Victoria

See what I mean? Identity politics only becomes a bad thing when it spirals out of control and poor women begin to think that female billionaires are above criticism. That sort of "universal sisterhood" nonsense is cancer because it erodes class consciousness.

Since we're adding historical context, I'd just say: it's impossible to make an informed assessment based on gender because there have been so few female leaders there's not a large enough sample size. Also of note for the two negatives you mentioned, there's always Elizabeth I who was among the top 10 leaders of all time.

Trump once said that he was not interested in special interests.

The screaming about identity politics amuses me. It has always been a major part of politics. What do you think the concept of a "balanced ticket" is about? Why do you think politicians are always marching in things like the St. Patricks Day parade?

I dunno. Maybe they just like St. Patrick's Day.

I don't think that "securing the Irish vote" is a big deal anymore. Anti-Irish discrimination used to be a big thing in the United States, but it's pretty much dead now. Not even the KKK hate Irish-Americans nowadays.

He makes a lot of noise. I prefer peace and quite.

Fox is the only simi right leaning news on tv. All the others are left leaning liberal.
All the other news spend their time bashing trump constantly and try g to make up romours that their marriage is a sham, or going on and on about what shoe she worr(cause apparently that’s news now) or how about cnn bringing up DACA at a kids Easter event in front of kids just trying to have a good holiday. Talk about inappropriate

Maybe for you there is, for the left and media it’s just because he’s from the other team. He’s done similar things as obama and the left was silent with obama on it. Obama was their guy so he got a pass to do whatever he wanted, fox bashed obama again cause he wasn’t their guy and did so,e horrible stuff. But they didn’t follow his wife around and shame her about her shoe choice.

Isn't CNN a centrist network? They had Glenn Beck and Newt Gingrich working for them for a while.



That's because Trump is objectively a horrible person.

Another Thing: Trump also ruined Easter.





Trump is a far bigger manchild than Obama. Obama did a lot of bad things, but at least he didn't publically make an ass of himself and his whole country.

For example, Obama didn't boast about how he was going to "bomb the s**t out of" Lybia. He just quietly invaded the country and then quickly moved to the next topic of discussion in order to preserve his reputation.

You are also equating MSNBC with the entire political left. I have already corrected you on this, but you just keep insisting that the entire left refused to criticise Barack Obama. Simple ignorance is no longer an excuse. You are being deliberately deceitful at this point. Stop repeating this lie that I have refuted countless times.



Fox bashed Obama for all the wrong reasons. For example, Fox never addressed Obama's warmongering and corporatism. It was the left that exposed Barack Obama's BS. Heroic intellectuals like Noam Chomsky were calling out Obama every step of the way. Democrat loyalists aren't leftists. CNN and MSNBC aren't leftist either.



When Obama was in the White House, Fox News criticized him for the dumbest s**t. They criticized him for purchasing Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard. They repeatedly accused him of being Kenyan. They insisted that his birth certificate was fake. They accused him of being a secret Muslim practicing Taqiya. They accused him of being a Marxist just because he dabbled in Marxism in university. They went after him in some insane ways.

A lot of people on the left including me criticized Obama actually...maybe to some he got a free pass or whatever, but not from the entire left. I mean the left is not one collective group with one unanimous opinion on everything anymore than the right is.

Also Fox is not the only news with right wing bias, didn't you hear about the thing recently with tons of news stations repeating the exact same scripted lines. All those stations are owned by one company and that company has a right wing bias so that is more than just Fox news. That said I think most of the mainstream 'news' left or right has been garbage for a while, its all about money not reporting real facts and information. Of course Trumps wifes shoe choice is not not news, but someone must have figured it would bring viewers who like tabloid style nonsense thus earning the news station more money or rather the CEO.

Yeah I cannot say I have watched CNN for quite some time as I have not had t.v channels, but I never got the impression it was all that left leaning. I seriously think to some individuals on the right its simply anything they don't like is leftist or liberal to them.

Does not matter if they are discriminated against or not they like to be wooed. That is true for any group. The politicians may or may not like the St Patricks Day parade or the Salute to Israel Day Parade or any other ethnic parade that is not the reason they are there, that is not the reason politicians were at these type of events 50 years ago, 100 years ago etc Speeches by politicians have always been tailored, towered groups.

So? We are talking about the media. None of the left leaning media nor politicians criticized Obama nor did they criticize Hillary. They in fact rabidly defended them. They kept pushing Hillary was so great she’s guaranteed to win, she’s the best. They sabotaged Bernie for her.
For most people cnn is all they watch, there’s a reason it’s the #1 most watched news network. It’s all my mom watches. They have her believing lies.

Name one other national right leaning network?
The networks are fox, nsbn, nbc,cnn which of them are right leaning? Just fox. Then if you go websites or paper there’s 2 fox and bebiert, on the left you have the above 3 and la times, newyork times, vice, Washington post, there’s another too I can’t remember. Then for movies and shows most producers are left leaning, most actresses and actors are left leaning(they actually try to hire only left leaning people and discriminate against right leaning ones) biggest right leaning ones I can think of is Bruce Willis and Samuel jackson(i dont know for sure) and time hanks I think.

Then most big companies are left leaning. Google, Apple, Samsung,Sony,Microsoft and Facebook.
Google alone has a monopoly on information and is actively trying to purge right leaning information and people from google searches and YouTube. Likewise so is Facebook. Both actively supported Hillary and democrats.
They very biased. Oh I forgot Starbucks.
Biggest right leaning business I can think of is bass pro shops and hobby lobby. They aren’t anywhere near as big as the left leaning ones.
What happens when the only information to be found online is left leaning approved? Good by free information and allowing kids and people to learn about both sides and make a educated decision. Only the left side will be seen. They know social media is what sways people today and they control it and once they finished it’ll only stuff the left approves(includes some left leaning stuff they don’t like say Bernie and anti corporate ideas)
YouTube and Facebook are purging gun stuff and right leaning stuff.
You can’t educate people on how guns work or how to safely reload ammo so it doesn’t explode in your face. We can’t explain the difference between full auto and simi auto anymore. They control the media and so will only let people see what they want seen. This is so utterly wrong. I’d be against it if it was the other way around too. Internet and social media should be free and open to all.

You mean all the local small news channels?
Yeah each network besides cnn have a local news station in every county. Abc(left),cbs(left),nbc(left) and fox(rightish)
And the video I saw was more about how they all say the others are lying and only they can be trusted. They all accuse each other of being fake news. And for the most part they probably all are. Look yeah fox will be biased and lie some, not nearly as much as the left ones do though. Which is why unless all of them say the same thing I don’t believe it. If fox and cnn both report the same thing it’s probably try if they report different things the truth is probably somewhere between required more investigation. I use to say the local news was trustworthy but currently mines lying to people and pushing gun control agenda via lies just like the big boys which makes me not trust anything they say now.

Her shoes are news because they hate the trumps and know they’ve made many hate them so they look for any reason to bash in them.
Trumps can’t do anything right they dammed if they do and dammed if they don’t. If he came out tomorrow and did complete open borders now laws fear down the fence, gave all illegals citizen ship and mandated complete free heath care and college, cnn would say it’s horrible what’s he’s doing and say he’s butler even they up until then they pushed for all that. He could cure cancer and they’d hate him for it.

There’s no real news anymore, news should never been allowe to make profits. It’s all about viewership and cooperate sponsorships now. They just a tv show now. It’s why they only report bad stuff and repeat the same bad thing over and over for weeks or months after and try to make it seem like the world is nothing but horrible every day. People turn in more for violence and bad news then good news.
You can blame cnn and their inventing 24/7 news for this. They have to fill every minute of every day all the time. I can’t stand cnn, it’s super depressing nothing they say is positive.

Whatever. It's the corporate media. What do you expect? It's aimed at normies and stupids.

Finding truth beyond the corporate media machine takes a little extra effort ... but people on the autistic spectrum are usually smart. Aren't we? Don't we have good memories?

Finding truth beyond the corporate media also takes a lot of time ... but you have stated in previous posts that you are on welfare, meaning that you have plenty of spare time.

When you have infinite free time, there is no excuse for intellectual laziness.



CNN had Glenn Back and Newt Gingrich working for them in the past. Are you sure that they never criticized Barack Obama? I doubt it.

I'd believe you if you were talking about MSNBC, but whatever. I don't usually trust any of those corporate media outlets.



Some American conservatives also get their news from non-American conservative news sources such as the British Daily Mail and the Canadian Ottawa Sun.



What the Hell is nsbn?



Are you sure that all of those newspapers are liberal? Didn't the New York Times once run a story about how recycling was a pointless waste of time?



Time Hanks? Do you ever proofread your posts before clicking submit? I can usually tolerate a few spelling mistakes, but this is getting ridiculous. I get annoyed when English is bastardized this frequently.

Another Thing: Hollywood is not progressive. It never was. I will admit that Hollywood has a long history of using racial and sexual diversity as a gimmick, but Hollywood also has a long history of glorifying the US military, portraying atheists as sad sacks, portraying transwomen as perverted psychopaths, bombarding people with product placement, and casting white actors to play East Asian characters.

There are plenty of liberals in Hollywood, but what about all the Hollywood conservatives? There's Chuck Norris. There's Michael Bay. There's Clint Eastwood.

There are also plenty of right-leaning TV shows, such as Duck Dynasty. Addionally, TV contains even more ads than the movies. That's the main reason why I stopped watching television for the most part.

It seems to me that you are living in a bubble. Leftists have been criticising the media for a long time, since it promotes shallow consumerism, but you seem to be unaware of that because you have sheltered yourself in your little right-wing bubble.



Seriously? Most of those companies are only concerned with making a profit.

Sony is the owner of PlayStation. Many of those video games glorify the US military and contain over-the-top politically incorrect machismo. The video game industry isn't liberal or conservative. It just relies on controversy in order to make a profit. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DoNotDoThisCoolThing



Aren't they just cracking down on illegal firearm sales and neo-Nazi recruiting videos?



Facebook is also full of Christian stuff and patriotic stuff.



HA! Those are the biggest right-leaning businesses that you can think of! Ridiculous!

What about DeBeers? What about the oil industry? What about Lockheed Martin? What about Wal-Mart? What about all the companies that underpay their employees and rely on Chinese slaves as a source of cheap labor? What about all the companies that use sweatshop labor? What about the auto industry? What about big tobacco? What about the big banks? What about the companies that receive corporate welfare?

You think that Bass Pro Shops is the biggest right-wing business? What planet are we even talking about? We're still talking about stuff that happens here on earth right?



HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Is anyone tying to shut down /pol/ or Vanguard News Network? Stormfront is actually still up. Far-right neo-fascist sites are still a dime a dozen. You shouldn't worry about conservative media being controlled if people can still go on the internet and talk about how Hitler should have killed more Jews.







I just typed "proper gun safety" into YouTube. I got about 171,000 results.



It is the other way around in some ways. Al Jazeera is trying to make a documentary about the racism in Israel. The right-wing is trying to shut it down.



Which president took away net neutrality?



Right...ish?

Fox News is a "news" channel about how all the businessmen in the world (except George Soros) din do nuffin. Right...ish? It extremely right-wing. Fox News is only slightly left of Vanguard News Network.



http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/tv/fox/



This is a highly dangerous worldview, since Fox and CNN are both pro-corporate.



What are they saying exactly?



What the Hell is this s**t?

"Citizenship" is one word.

Why would CNN call Trump a butler? That doesn't even make any sense.

Is this something that you do? Do you make fun of people by calling them butlers?



That's a pretty left-wing belief.



Doesn't the news have kitten rescue videos sometimes?



You are right, but this has nothing to do with the news being liberal.



Alright. It's time for me to wrap up this response with a conclusion.

You seem to be at least partially aware of how the news is under corporate control. It also seems as though you dislike the left purely because of the gun rights issue.

Perhaps you would prefer orthodox Marxism.

Yea sure. Not wanting cuts to things people need in order to survive is "class envy".
