Ah, Trump isn't the government? He isn't the President of the United States of America? Did Hillary really win and the rest of country has just been playing pretend with Trump to avoid hurting his feelings all this time? :think:

And you only get the choices I offer to you, because I need to protect you from a bad range of choices. Having too many choices just makes you Marxist. That's what the government needs to be protect you from.
Were you triggered by the FUCK YOU? I’m sorry about that FUCK YOU, and so is Trump.
Nope, I was "triggered" by your grovelling submissive behavior toward government, not by you swearing. I get more "triggered" by seeing people I once respected become deferential peasants at the sight of people with power.

Oh, and btw.. Is, or isn't the President of the United States the government?

And none of you "hate government". You love the government that appears to favor your interests, and hate the government that appears to favor your neighbour's. When it favors you, you call that "liberty", when it favors others, it's Marxist. Simple logic. Simple and dumb. As simple as SJW logic, except you'd replace "Marxist" with "Racist". The more demonizing, the more "true" it must be. Now you got the government literally acting like it's a victim of the horribly unfair words of a private social media company. And which wants to use the powers of government to punish that company. And you defend it. Like ChiCom kowtowing drones before King Government. Because you envy and resent the past and present successes and popularity of companies and media outlets that have a progressive bent.
Wait ... how's this profoundly deep thought go again?
"You like government that favors you and hate government that fucks you?"

Deep.
:lol:

Twitter being treated as an editorial press agency instead of a free speech forum isn't some sort of bizarre government crucifixion conspiracy. Twitter literally decided to start editorializing by marking people's words as fact or fiction, based on the opinions of their media cronies. That's fine, it's a free country, they can do that. But they can't do that without playing by the same rules that all the other editorial organizations play by.

So where's this outrage coming from?

Did I claim anywhere it was "deep"? Nope. I specifically said it was simple, in fact. Liking government that favors you and hating government that doesn't, is obvious. What is less obvious, and is instead dishonest and absurd, is the painting of even small political disagreements between two citizens, as if one is on the side of the "Racists" and the other on the side of the "Communists".

The "outrage" is that heads of state should not only care about supposed "unfairness" when it midly inconveniences them personally.

Well, since you so courteously invite me to:

Fuck you, too, Martin.

B-but Trump responded to criticism.
He is supposed to not question the narrative.

I'm a Dane and we don't question the narrative! That's why we were a Nazi province in WW2 and a good post for Nazis.


You Americans just don't know how to roll over. We also horizontally collaborate.
