Yeah, well upthread someone posted this, so I’m guessing there’s a significant portion that are simply bigots:

I am at a Trump rally in Manhattan, and thousands are chanting “We hate Muslims, we hate blacks, we want our great country back”. Disgusting

BTW, if that was caught on film—and I’m pretty sure it would have been—it’ll be showing up in Da’esh recruiting materials soon. Now that a plurality of American voters have in no uncertain terms told young American Muslims they’re not wanted here and aren’t a Real Americans™, Da’esh will no doubt find plenty of new volunteers.

I know it’s hard to understand the feeling of being a minority target if you’ve never been one yourself, whether it’s due to race, religion (or lack of), sexual preference, etc. but I can assure you it’s highly unpleasant. I guess I’m just saying don’t be surprised if those of us who are minorities get a bit testy at times.

Anyway, lizards, I’m in a piss poor mood right now so I’m gonna try (again) to get some sleep. Try to resist feeding the trolls when they inevitably come by to provoke & gloat—it gives them the satisfaction they want.
