Someone sounds a little snow-flakey. What's wrong did someone possibly criticize your dear leader? Wouldn't want that now, would we?


You can't post like this to HN, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are. We're trying to have a forum that doesn't burn itself to a hellfire crisp. Scorched earth is not interesting.

This place is fragile and vulnerable. Please contribute to protecting it, not destroying it. I'm sure you wouldn't dump motor oil in a mountain lake or something like that, so please don't do the equivalent here.

Objectively Trump is not a good person. That doesn't mean he wasn't a useful blunt instrument.

Many people on the right gave him far more credit than he deserved. But a lot of that was reaction to nearly everyone on the left spewing nothing but hate about him his entire term.

He's done and gone and won't be coming back.

The thing the left should actually be worried about is what happens when the next person comes along that also has the right song and dance to get elected, but once there actually knows how to govern?
