Trump effect' led to hate crime surge

[Deleted]

He told them to stop it

he did. And honest, is that not all that counts

[Saucexorzski]

For 30+ years that divide didn't exist, as it was just Donald being Donald. He runs for president, suddenly the media is "investing" so much into him. Was Phil Heartman and SNL clairvoyant in late 80s to start investing then? Were the Simpsons? Was the NFL by denying him a team for 3 decades because his peers couldn't trust him?

Saying the media invested in going after him, actually means you are ignoring how Trump was treated 2 years ago and sooner. Media didn't change and neither did Trump. You just got scammed...

The left here is acting in the very same manner the right did and has done since Obama was elected. Bitch and moan, expecting the worse, making shit up as they go. Neither side gives a shit about why the other thinks or acts in the manor they do, all they want is to be validated as correct. This divide has been at least 30 years in the making and i see no signs of it stopping, only signs that it will one day get to the point where we really are at each others throats. Maybe that's whats really needed in this case, another dammed bloody civil war so one side can be all "See, we were right, you were wrong." as the first one did. Either way the US is headed to a very shitty place with social unrest.

That was easily one one of the best parts of his campaign, watching the media and the liberal/progressives throw a daily temper tantrum, demanding that Trump release his tax records - and then watching Trump continually give them the middle finger

You know who else threw a temper tantrum about Mitt Romney not releasing his tax returns one Donald J. Trump.

Gangster rap which encourages violence and using woman as objects. = no problem.

Trump being an angry man on twitter = he causes violence!

A) Who said the first one wasn't a problem? B) "Gangster rap" isn't going to be President...

There is an extreme false equivalency at work when leftist groups motivate the actual assassination of police officers and for their efforts are invited to the white house multiple times, then the left turns around and claims there are 'hate crimes' everywhere, yet for some reason there are no body bags connected to these supposed 'hate crimes'.

Trump is the goddamn president. He is the most important person in the country (whether people like it or not). His words carry weight, and what he says matters. It can't be dismissed as art or lyrics.

Besides, Trump has encouraged violence and using women as objects as well.

I don't even like the guy and knew about this.

Think he's talking about this one? http://www.theadvocate.com/acadiana/...8.html?reload3

Ok that one incident is verified thank you. The poster said "a lot of these" were hoaxes. So I need proof on that as well.

Here ya go https://www.reddit.com/r/HateCrimeHoaxes/

HateCrimeHoaxes has been a subreddit for years, and just recently exploded with . . . . . . trump inspired hate crime hoaxes. But If I were you, I wouldn't click the link, you might get seriously triggered when you find out there hasn't been a surge of anything but butthurt over the election.

Did you just provide reddit as proof? No wonder you're filled with so much hate you voted Trump.

[xuros]

LMAO

I LOVE that the photo they're using on the article of the swastica graffiti was debunked by the BBC themselves the other week in an article suggesting that a lot of these attacks weren't really happening.

The graffiti in question (like most of it I'd wager) was done by some democrat supporters to make a statement about Trump.

Nah, dont you know that only WHITE RACIST people can draw a swastica?! You need to take a sip of purple kool-aid my man! It will make everything clear.

/lol

[Sosoulsu]

Can someone link a video of some of these horrible things happening?

This.
It pains me to know that there is still so much pointless hate going on in America.
I think, in order to understand it, I would need to see one of these heinous acts--just one--in order to understand just how fargone our country is.

Oh..
http://www.dailywire.com/news/10841/...-prestigiacomo

I found a link showing a bunch of videos of anti-Trump protesters attacking Trump supporters.
Many of the links are broken, though..
So if anybody has some video of these post-election videos of Trump supporters attacking other people, I would ~love~ to see it.

He isn't President, yet. Also he apologized for his actions, what more does he need to do? Aren't you the same person who preaches rehabilitation in prison? Should someone who made a mistake always pay for that mistake the rest of their lives? It's rather sad.

You missed the point, I am talking about what encourages bad behavior. But that's ok you often miss the point, I expected nothing less.

[Deleted]

You mean hate crimes against Trump supporters and White people ?

[Sinyc]

Provide proof please.

NOT in reference to the story I mentioned above.. At work, so my searching is limited. But here is one for you: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...-donald-trump/

Edit: Not the story I was referring to either, but a similar "story" by the "victim": https://www.facebook.com/santamonica...48837835137297

Again, I am not saying bad things haven't happened by bad people using Trump as an excuse to be hateful. Just not that it's as bad as SPLC would have you believe. Does anyone even listen to SPLC anymore???

[Beazy]

Right, because news postings and police reports posted on reddit are so fake....... I can see why you voted for Castro.

Cult of personality

[MasterHamster]

Same thing happened in the UK following Brexit. No big surprise. Neonazis feel empowered.

The rampant apologism in the US right now is staggering. Frightening tbh.

The kind of bullshit loyal, vocal Trump supporters are spouting are the kind of farfetched, ignorant tripe everyone are able to spot. But it has gone so far these people manage to convince themselves. The people who curse anyone for things you can point out Trump is also guilty off, but then that is shrugged off for some petty reason. And when you break through, when not even they can pretend Donald has been the perfect God Emperor, all you get is "And this is the kind of rhetoric that got him elected."

Yes, somehow that is correct. Pointing out his hypocricy, his lies and his blatant demagoguery somehow made him worthy of the presidency in the US. Embarrassing.

No wonder post-truth is word of the year.

[Zandalarian Paladin]

Anti-white bullying? Is this another completely unsubstantiated comment from a person who rails against actual credible media being propagators of fake news with unsubstantiated assertions?

Thought so.

To claim anti-white bullying is a hoax is the equivalent of claiming racism doesn't exist. Much like the fact that we generalized rape to be almost exclusively male on female abuse, yet this week a new study made from the department of justice claims that women on men rape is much more prevalent than anticipated. 28%, in fact, is exclusively female on male.

But hey, sure, let's dodge common sense when it fits your narrative. But anti-white is a thing, same as white nationalism and racism.

Sounds very interesting, do you have a link to this study?

[Cthulhu 2020]

I remember those threads. Which makes people doing the same thing immediately for Trump really stupid. But who cares about doing things you called stupid the last 8 years.

And you were a very willing participant in those threads, so your moral superiority is trash. Sad.

You cry about other people using whataboutism to deflect from heinous acts, then do it yourself, then claim you don't. Your posts are funny, but sad.
