Practically half of the people in Austria are all idiots? Their concerns should not be taken seriously? Wow. Just wow. You are the one living in a bubble, not them. I live in Brussels and see EVERY day what a nice addition muslims are to our society. And yes, I'm worried about their presence here and how they change nieghbourhoods completely and not in a good way. I'm worried about the fact that they beat up gay people in the street, spit at my girlfriend when she is wearing a dress in summer. I'm worried about the fact that my country allows Ritual slaughter, even though it goes against all ethics, just to please muslims. I'm worried about the fact they top all crime statistics. I could go on and on, but I will finish by saying that I'm worried that there are too many people like you who make all of this possible. I am aware of these problems, but you cant make a whole group or religion responsible for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jaro- Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 and ontopic - this Axl/GNR/Del act was childish and stupid but will gain huge public attention since Trump is No1 news all over the world.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvanG Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) I don't think people voting for Trump or any of the right wing candidates in Europe are less intelligent (although most researches show that most of them are uneducated and whenever I see them in talkshows they don't look like the sharpest tools in the shed.) But it's mostly an anti establishment vote. Same thing with Brexit... the government was telling people to vote against it, and people don't trust politicians anymore, so they did the opposite. Same thing in America now... people who haven't seen any changes in the last eight years, a lot of them have been out of work for years and are still struggling, and therefore don't trust the establishment anymore which Clinton was part of. So they vote for someone who is clearly not a politician and says all the things they want to hear. I'm sure the majority knows he's a piece of shit who is talking out of his ass, but they have been so disappointed by the establishment that they rather vote for a piece of shit than for a real politician.

Yeah, I think you're right. To call all Trump or Brexit voters dumb, fascist, racist or whatever, is a particularly dumb thing to do, and shows you haven't understood what this is about at all. I kind of hoped the Trump election would wake up people, but I'm afraid it will have to go too far until most truly wake up. Right now, they stay in their comfort zone, within their own little circle of people who confirm their beliefs, and insult everyone who dares to challenge them, or tries to make them think out of the box. (Besides, less intelligent or uneducated people are citizens too. I find it ironic some people will pretend to defend the common man, the labourer, the immigrant; but when they go out to vote, say: Yeah, you're too dumb to vote, I don't take you seriously either way.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the first half of your post, but no one seems to care about it this morning so I'm curious what will happen.\ edit- By "no one" I meant that I haven't heard a thing about it on any news outlet this morning.

Popular Post nonok Posted December 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2016 This is ridiculous and way too immature and mainstream for grown-ass men to do. And the only reason they did it was to get on Mexico's good side. GNR haven't been anti-establishment since the 80s, so if it was Killary that was chosen, they'd be licking her ass and not batting an eye at all the evil she's done as well. Now who's spreading hate, violence and restricting tolerance? Because it seems to me it's the pissed off democrats who whine about a democratically elected president. Are you people really that fucking ignorant that you can't see you're doing the exact same things you take (unsubstantiated) pride in criticizing? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the outrage had Trump supporters done this to a Hillary effigy or an Obama effigy. This shit is pathetic pandering to the lowest common denominator and mob mentality. People thinking this is awesome would be outraged if it was the other way around. We call those people fucking hypocrites. If you support this kind of shit I feel bad for you. I respect Axl's right to have an opinion but make sure your skeletons and closet are clean before you go after a guy for similar things you've done and been accused of. And when you do go after him try to do it in a productive way rather than recreating some sort of lynch style mob scene. Fucking horrid display. It's weak shit for weak minds. Again, Hillary is a corrupt money-launderer who was in favor of invading Iraq and Obama has deported close to 3 million and bombs children. Fuck all of these people, Trump included. They're all fair game. Lighten up. It's a joke. Just because you don't share their sense of humor doesn't make it "weak shit for weak minds".

The point is that if they'd done this with a Hillary figure/doll/pinata/whatever, they reaction wouldn't be "Lighten up, it's a joke". There would be straight up outrage. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen up cool guy. I'm not defending Hillary either. She's a scumbag as well. My point though is crystal clear and if you don't understand that.... well actually I know you don't understand that because you're of the opinion stuff like this is a simple joke. It's not SNL. Oh and just so we're clear before you come storming back assuming I'm offended by it and lacking a sense of humor, I'm not and I don't. I just think it's pathetic. Like I said it's weak shit for weak minds. Small minded people think this crap is funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
