I think the realities of that series are far more horrific than what you're thinking of

Underestimating your enemies is a surefire way to lose

I don't think Annoying Orange can be tied to this specific incident. It's clearly just a crazy, tribal nutjob that took his own frustration out on innocent people.

What is Annoying Orange's America is the fact that this incident has spiraled into a nationwide conversation about problems with Muslims, despite the fact they were clearly the victims in this scenario. If you went back even five years ago, I don't think the rhetoric would be nearly as awful as it is right now.

I was meme'ing but I also see what you're saying
It's p dumb to talk about Muslims when they're clearly the victims in this situation

I dunno how anyone is apologizing for him, cause obviously you don't just body slam reporters, but demonizing him for it is ridiculous. Of course as a government official you need to exercise a level of physical restraint, but of course he probably doesn't just go around body slamming everyone who asks him a question he doesn't like.


That'd be loving hilarious if he did though.
Still wrong. But funny.

if you're going in the direction of "the left is the reason we're swinging right" then that's only slightly true. if people associate poor characteristics with an ideology they're already opposed to, then it will push them further in that direction, but in reality, this is happening both ways. the illusion that the left is the only one drifting is only apparent because you're standing on the right. in truth, both are drifting apart, and it's a self-sustaining cycle as common ground appears to continue deteriorating.

and really, our national political makeup can be considered pretty snugly within the margin of error. the senate is only barely held by republicans, the house only has a 55% majority, and the president landed in his seat with a popular loss, supposedly only winning due to the geographic advantages of being a republican candidate (that is to say, more regions tend to swing republican). if hillary clinton were not so distrusted and disliked by the american people, and if it weren't for the drama surrounding the DNC, we would almost certainly be seeing a democratic federal government right now, still within these margins of error, and i expect that, in either case, the president will likely suffer a significant midterm slump in 2018. of course, if hillary clinton weren't such a poorly viewed candidate, a different republican probably would have ended up winning the primaries as well.

In at least this election cycle, the left lost more support than the right, and I think that will continue for at least another election at the rate the democrats are going. The pendulum will, of course, swing back, but it might be a while before it does. I guess we'll see next year though. I don't really have high hopes for the Democrats atm, there seems to be a severe lack of introspect and an abundance of tribalism. The Republicans do the same, but what I'm saying is, right now, as it stands, the Democrats are being far worse, and that is a huge part of what cost them the election. All the BS with the DNC snubbing Sanders and Clinton being a completely unelectable candidate was just icing on the stuff cake. I had thought Annoying Orange would have a four year run, and during that time the Democratic Party would revise their strategy of race baiting identity politics and things of that nature, but it only seems to have worsened. So I honestly don't know. I could be wrong. Like I said, we'll all see next year where the country stands.

gottem


I'm perfectly content with watching people continue to act in the same way that got Annoying Orange elected in the first place. :^]

lmfao Annoying Orange is anti-establishment which helps him lots but post-election it turns out he's exactly like those that he's against except just more unpredictably idiotic
he loving boasts to random foreign leaders about how he's got x number of ships outside the coast of y, just to get a supposed moral high ground
he's a self-admitted internet troll who has an obsession with tweeting random things that just harm him in the future
ofc we elected a loving meme as the most powerful man in the world

If you say so

if you think Annoying Orange won because of anything apart from hillary being stuff, you're absolutely three times more handicapped than both of them combined

If you think Hillary being stuff is the sole reason Annoying Orange won, you're part of the loving problem and you're ten times more handicapped than both of them combined
