Social Media turning leavers into extremists

[IWalkLikeHimaMartian]

Why dont you stand in the middle of your garden shouting: 'Ive proved it, Ive proved it'.

Oh no, dont do that, it would silly, theres no point shouting 'Ive proved it', when you havent.

When someone resorts to trolling........
point proven.

The brexit vote has given the remainers/ remoaners an excuse to express there extremist views

I have proven my point without a shadow of doubt.
I do not need to re-prove it each time you deny the truth.

What a Numpty!

Youve run out of any reasonable argument so now you have resorted to this:

Argument by assertion: If you say something enough times, it must be true ...........

Alternatively
Argument by exhaustion If you keep asking for proof enough times, despite proof already provided several times............

LOL

He told the people: 'drain the swamp' and 'make America great again' and they thought a privileged super rich man would act in their interest.

It was a bit more nuanced than that but the general thrust was that. He appealed to a group of people who have been hurting because the policies of the democrats (and republicans) have failed them.

[M]embers of labor unions, and unorganized unskilled workers, will sooner or later realize that their government is not even trying to prevent wages from sinking or to prevent jobs from being exported. Around the same time, they will realize that suburban white-collar workers—themselves desperately afraid of being downsized—are not going to let themselves be taxed to provide social benefits for anyone else.

At that point, something will crack. The nonsuburban electorate will decide that the system has failed and start looking around for a strongman to vote for—someone willing to assure them that, once he is elected, the smug bureaucrats, tricky lawyers, overpaid bond salesmen, and postmodernist professors will no longer be calling the shots….

One thing that is very likely to happen is that the gains made in the past forty years by black and brown Americans, and by homosexuals, will be wiped out. Jocular contempt for women will come back into fashion…. All the resentment which badly educated Americans feel about having their manners dictated to them by college graduates will find an outlet.

some of the words are very familiar.

But what about




















Project Fear of Foreigners from the paranoid RWRs

desperation by the LWR remoaners and the more desperate they get the more extremist they become. They attempted to threaten people with project fear during the referendum



Magna Carta 1215

apparently prior to 1968 the UK was some type of dictatorship (JD & *ankerot)

This is very insular, people need to learn that we compete on in a global economy. Businesses are extremely portable.

despite proof already provided several times............
