My sister's posts have become slightly less conciliatory.

Yeah I don't think we need any 'parodies' of the Trump brigade.

Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of America being made great again, circa 1929.

I love the 'can't you wait till he actually does something?' Umm, no, that's exactly what I don't want to happen.

I'm quite confused. Was the thought that if Trump wins, we suddenly all have lobotomies? :unsure:

:lol:  Dude, that shit's just getting started.

I wonder where they're marching to without college boys, gals and degenerates.  Oh, I know: freedom.

I like that apparently everybody in college is a degenerate.  Hey, at least they acknowledge that they are American though.  "We have the best degenerates!"

What she's saying is, the protesters should arm themselves and march on the Capitol and the White House?  Interesting point of view.

that's only half true.  There is a program for skilled immigrant workers that considerably speed up the process and reduces the hassle.  And sponsorship is done by the government in these cases.

No she is saying they should all go in fight in the Middle eastern wars that our new President-elect says we should withdraw from

I have communists on my Facebook.  If I can tolerate that, I guess I could tolerate a neo-nazi freak.  Theoritically.

I doubt I could tolerate actual neo-nazis.  Thankfully I don't know any.

On Facebook I have religious sane like AmSci to religious crazy (my in laws) to neo-nazi assholes (he's having field day with Trump winning) to people that shell out Quebec Indépendance at every opportunity.

I find it all interesting.
