      I think you’re in denial about how fucked up US politics is.

      Once again, I remind you that a former president, in a presidential debate, claimed these things. So it doesn’t matter if you’re talking about them jokingly, he wasn’t.

        I am very aware Trump is a moron. It’s like saying water is wet. I’m not really sure what you are trying to argue.

          “I’ll make it obvious that I’m trolling”, you said just in your previous comment.

          You can’t, because of the reality we live in.

          How is this hard for you to understand? US politics is so absurd that there is literally nothing you could write about it which would be obviously untrue.

              “Just because it’s illegal doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen”

              Several times now I’ve tried explaining this. No matter how much you jeered and winked mentally while posting that, the world (or US politics rather) is in such a state, that there’s no way of differentiating that from someone who actually was serious with it, since those people do actually exist.

                And yet again you ignore the rest of the context of that message. Copy the entire comment.

                  I’m really not. The point is that nothing you say after that really matters, unless you’ve put in a direct mark that it’s humour, ie a “;)” or the more commonly used “/s”.

                  Otherwise, it is literally impossible to tell if you’re serious. I’ve repeated this like a dozen times now, how are you still finding it hard to understand?
