I had to stop scrolling for a few seconds, push back the tears and start again.This is not going well.
I think a lot of Trump voters are really frustrated and - well, yes - annoyed - that we're not gracefully conceding defeat. I know that seems obvious, but I mean that I think that it's a big part of what's fuelling a lot of the 'conversations' online. There's a surprising absence of reasonable conversation. Well. There's none that I can find so far. They're really talking out of this ... frustration, instead of talk WITH us. No. It's not going well.
I'm trying an entirely different technique, but I've watched many, many conversations unfold already. The escalation DOES happen quickly, hurried along by insults and derision and complete disregard for any of the things liberals care about. Climate change. The possibility that FADA h2802 could be revived. The possibility of a Pence presidency. And - right now - liberals have been manipulated into not responding to the huge leaps of logic because the first thing they do is get all 'yah. We, the Deplorables, we're so stupid, et cetera.'

have you tried to have a conversation with a trump supporter? it escalates in about 4 minutes ...I gave up.
From an atheist to a pagan, I can talk about most anything without it escalating....unless it's religion.
I don't care what religion any one is or if they don't believe at all..as long as it's not being crammed down my throat.
