Topic	how to win any argument about trump
Aaantlion 10/28/19 9:33:22 PM #25:	ParanoidObsessive posted... Sadly, "orange man bad" is only slightly worse than most of what the people complaining about Trump are vomiting out themselves, so all you're really doing is just complaining about two idiots metaphorically slap-fighting anyway. At least "orange man bad" is mildly amusing, unlike what the ridiculous #nevertrump crowd spews. Political memes in general are pretty shit because most preach heavily to the choir and get played out very fast. ParanoidObsessive posted... The only way to really win one of those arguments is to not be one of the idiots involved in it in the first place. How about a nice game of chess instead? papercup posted... Wait do trumplets really say Trump critics are "deranged"? Do they just have 0 self awareness? I like that you can say that without a trace of irony. darkknight109 posted... ...seriously, does nobody realize that TDS is, like, the 18th incarnation of a conservative talking point that's now almost 20 years old? The original "Derangement Syndrome" was "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - it's not a real thing and never was. It was a conservative columnist's tongue-in-cheek joke aimed at anti-Bush liberals; it was never meant to be taken seriously. idk, man, sounds like a whataboutism to me! In general, the term "Bush Derangement Syndrome" was never a big thing and, even at its worst, the Bush objections paled compared to the nonsense we see on a weekly basis about Trump. That said, almost 20 years later, there are still people who think that photo of Bush holding the kids' book upside down is real so some nonsense never goes away. BlackScythe0 posted... I'm pretty sure he's going to earn a spot at the second worst president in US history. Which is a pretty solid example of an irrational opinion. ZBug_ posted... The point is that conservatives use it to disregard all arguments they dont agree with. Really? Because I thought the point was to play something up to be far bigger than it is in an attempt to downplay the very real, irrationally toxic and utterly deranged subsection of Trump critics who spend more time thinking about Trump than even Trump does. Other than that, you mean to suggest that one side of a political movement thinks the other side is crazy? I can't imagine THAT happening! >_> ZBug_ posted... Most people realize its not real, as far as actual mental disorders go. The mods think it's real, which is why it's now a TOS violation to accuse people of having it. People were bitching on the mod board about being moderated for it. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| Scientists are finally waking up to what pyramids have known all along. <cite>Aaantlion posted [p:929365547] in how to win...
