I'm just going to dump this here...

The point I'm trying to get across is that you really don't have a leg to stand on when you go and vote for X party that you know isn't going to win, then proceed to throw a conniption fit when Y party you didn't vote for ends up losing to Z party you didn't vote for. This is especially true for those who live in swing states.
This really doesn't stand to reason, though. I'm allowed to be upset that enough people voted for Trump for him to win--and who I vote for is completely irrelevant. The fact is, voting for Hillary wouldn't have taken away any of Trump's votes. If Trump lost, I would have been just as livid that he even made it so far.
Did you ever stop to consider why people would want a candidate like Trump in the first place,l et alone vote him into office? The answer isn't because they're low information btw.
Yes, I know. The answer is because they're fucking insanely stupid.
This is why Trump came to power.

(This is the first of many ways that Trump's supporters will attempt to silence and demonize their opposition over the next four years.)
Nobody is trying to silence the opposition. People like Icy, President Obama and most of the political class have been totally reasonable. They've been critical of Trump from the go, but are willing to accept the loss and their position, and act like rational human beings for the next four years.
The fact of the matter is that our entire political structure (one I don't even like that much) relies entirely on the general understanding that its methods of election, appointment and regulation are legitimate. When the losing side begins to deny the legitimacy of those things just because it doesn't like the results, that political structure is undermined.
Donald Trump is not going to kill you, send you away or hurt you. He is not going to restrict your political freedoms. You have been indoctrinated by two years of propaganda and hyperbolic rhetoric into thinking that the US has been taken over by a neo-Nazi in some kind of illegal coup. The simple truth of the matter is that Donald Trump, as well as his supporters, genuinely wants to Make America Great Again. Whether or not his plans for doing this are going to work is a matter very much up for debate, but it is quite apparent (to those willing to unplug their ears and take their hands away from their eyes) that the man really does mean well for this country and its inhabitants.
Stop acting like a child. Obama is not a Muslim communist who wants Islam to take over the United States. Donald Trump is not a fascist who wants to exterminate nonwhites and liberals.
WOW. LOL.
Orange Hitler campaigned sixteen months on a platform that flatly advocated the dismissal of most constitutional rights for a safer society. I'm sooner going to take Trump at face value than believe some deranged Internet poster (who perhaps a year or two ago was adamantly against government overreach) who habitually puts words in Trump's mouth. I'm going to expect the worst and hope for the best.
If I'm wrong about him, I'll be the first to admit it, you have my word. But as of right now, I have zero reassurances from the president-elect himself that he isn't going to do this stuff.
Trump is more like a modern Andrew Jackson than Putin or Hitler. I sincerely doubt he's going to be that bad.

You don't get to throw a temper tantrum just because your candidate didn't win.
How many times to I have to explain to you alt right queerbags that people are angry because you guys voted in an incompetent lunatic?
It has nothing to do with losing. If somebody like Bush won I'd say "oh great another dumbass". But Trump? This guy is the fucking opposite of what America is. The fact that you guys have been duped by his smooth talk doesn't mean we have been and that we should "give him a chance".
"IT'S ONLY DEMOCRACY WHEN I WIN!!!"
Fuck off.
that's not what he's getting at
he knows that he got fair-and-square democratically elected. what he's mad about is how enough people were swayed by his bullshit rhetoric to get him that far.
But can you really be angry at them? Trump is a cunt, but he saw a broken and beaten working class that had been repeatedly fucked over and then swept under the rug and then forgotten by the Left. He capitalized on this. Trump got to where he is today because other than Bernie, he was the only one to even pretend to care about reviving the middle class. Obviously this whole situation is a political clusterfuck, and we should be angry at the establishments of both parties for even allowing this to occur in the first place.

I doubt Trump is going to be that stupid. Pretty sure he knows damn well what's going to happen if he goes full Putin. We still have 2A and a very heavily armed populace unlike Nazi Germany or Russia. I doubt the military is even going to want to fight for him if he ever goes full autocrat. In the event of a civil war, there's no way in fuck the average American soldier is going to want to side with a freedom-hating government that starts murdering his freedom-loving brethren. We only have him for 4 years, I doubt it's going to be that bad.
White America is extremely pissed off, but we aren't pissed off enough to accept autocracy. You have to at least wait for the man to actually fuck up first before you chimp out.

You guys aren't gonna talk about plot stuff, are you? That's the only thing I don't really want to spoil for myself.
No, only the mons themselves and OST. I don't actually know much about the plot yet. I've been avoiding spoilers about that.

Why is any one obligated to give him a "chance"
He does bad, fuck him. He does good, great. There's no such thing as "chances" here.
You don't get to throw a temper tantrum just because your candidate didn't win. That's not how democracy works.
It's how free speech works, though.
Yeah, but don't expect anyone to take you seriously, because that's just being a sore loser.

The man hasn't even been sworn into office yet. You don't get to throw a temper tantrum just because your candidate didn't win. That's not how democracy works. Give the man a chance to actually fuck up first before you protest, otherwise you risk Civil War 2: Asshurt Liberal Boogaloo, and NOBODY wants that.

It's a bit disappointing considering the PWT got remixes for everyone, but oh well I do like the songs anyway
I wonder what theme Sina and Dexio have, I hope it's the X/Y trainer music because that's my favourite trainer theme
... That being said, I wish they'd bring back the PWT theme:
1306
« on: November 12, 2016, 01:10:43 PM »
Looks like they decided to recycle some old music too, but I'm not really complaining. Cynthia has one of the best champion themes, and Gen V had probably the best E4 theme.

Their new battle theme is very good, but it sounds like it would be more fitting for Zinnia than Red or Blue.

Can't wait to hear the version of this
BW did it the best by far. Especially with dat intro. The X/Y version just sounds weird.

It's so disheartening how some people can go from ardently anti-Trump to full-blown Trump apologist over a few days.
Trump is a narcissistic asshole, but the man was democratically elected. We're obligated to at least give him a chance. Even if the protesters did manage to keep Trump out of office it's not like it would mean anything because Republicans now control the rest of the government anyway. Better to have a unified government under Trump than 4 more years of the same stagnant and deadlocked bullshit we had under Obama.

I'd say Hillary would have been even scarier with this kind of power given her propensity for assassinations and what not.

Trump is about as much a Republican as Hillary was a Democrat. Is anybody really surprised by this?

http://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-37953528Mr. Trump said he favors keeping the prohibition against insurers denying coverage because of patients’ existing conditions, and a provision that allows parents to provide years of additional coverage for children on their insurance policies It's already habbening, folks.

Don't be so upset about corruption. Don't forget that if not corruption the great brands like Samsung and LG would never be where they are today. It was all about bribes from the gov. It was the thing that have pushed the S. Korea into developed world. t. Youtube comment I've read a lot of brain dead shit from a lot of brain dead people on Youtube, but I'm honestly at a loss for words here. There are people in this world that unironically think like this. I'm no expert on South Korea, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't take a South Korean to know that's pretty much the most objectively bad opinion ever. Sorry for the loafpost, but this actually triggered me.

GAME FREAK WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?
>Bottlecaps are hard as shit to get
>They don't actually raise your IVs, they just raise your stats to compensate, so no legit 6IV Ditto for you!
>In order to even use them, you have to grind your Pokemon to level 100 with Gen V exp scaling
>Super Training and Horde training were removed, so there's no easy way to train EVs
>Super Training replacement is shit and takes forever just to EV train one Pokemon
>DexNav was also removed, so no known way of getting pokemon with their HAs as of yet
Yeah, looks like I'm going to be doing most of my team building in ORAS. They really dropped the ball on this, but at least it looks like this shouldn't affect me too much since most of the new Pokemon are going to be shitmons anyway.
GAME FREAK, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DISCOURAGE PEOPLE FROM USING PKHEX, NOT EMBRACE IT!
what the FUCK
the only benefit I can think of is that pokes can now get maxed stats and keep using a specific Hidden Power
guess I can't expect much from the company that needed two tries to get the Wii U right
Remember, this is Game Freak we're talking about: The same company that went from some of the best games in the series in BW2 to the rushed garbage that was X and Y.

I'd been saying to people irl all along: if it were Warren instead of Clinton, she would've done waaay better. I would actually love to see her run next election.
Warren doesn't actually give a fuck. She only cares about that dank money she gets paid by bloodsucking labor unions. Same bullshit as Clinton, just more low key.
LOL dude just fuck off, you obviously have some misogynistic inner work to do
labor unions are a good thing, and every single politician should support them
Labor unions were good back in the 1800s. Now they're little more than just legalized mafia.
