Next time when the world's most dangerous pianist gets political here is a good place to discuss it.

I just posted a link to this thread in the Official Social Media thread. As I said there, I was going to pin this we already have enough pinned threads plus I'm guessing this will get bumped a lot on it's own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you were able to have a photo taken with Donald Trump back then, you did it. It's like the old photos you see of Trump with Jesse Jackson, with Don King, with Mike Tyson. Nobody hated Donald Trump until he ran for President, then the liberal media labeled him as "racist" and "misogynistic". Kind of like a guy named Axl Rose, back in the day. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

killuridols 8,128 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 That only one time when Trump tweeted to Axl .... This must make Axl's blood boil And then Baz saying shit months later turns into the total opposite Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trump's just more entertaining than them, in his tragic sort of way. So I'm sure Axl can have a hypothetical photo with him 30years ago while having political views today without too much irony. All mainstream media is more or less bullshit whether it's liberal or not. I'm aware the hyperbolic stupidity is on both sides. For example, on this forum during a debate/discussion someone claimed that well over 1/3 of the world's female population is raped. I called bullshit and for that was labelled a sexist, misogynistic rape-apologist. That doesn't give me carte blanche to go full-retard and be the other polar extreme like many Trump supporters do.

Popular Post Ant 960 Posted November 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) People didn't hate Trump before he became president? People didn't care about him before he ran for president. He was just a gaudy self-promoting Manhattan cartoon hawking cheap suits and steaks to prop up his failing real-estate empire inherited from his dad while supporting both political parties... eventually he got a show. Why would people care enough to hate him. When you start spouting vitriolic nonsense 24/7 and become President... people start to hate you... they can't ignore you. It's not a liberal media strategy. Trump probably wouldn't be president without that media. He's not a victim of liberal media or anything else except his own narcissism. It's impressive he got elected but... there's a reason why the hate correlates with him becoming president and it's not unfair media coverage.

I don't hate people who are more successful than myself, personally. I find it inspiring. By the metrics I use to gauge success, Trump is a massive failure. The fact that he lacks empathy for others when it's inconvenient, as evidenced by his rhetoric and his actions, and more broadly how he labels anyone in his way a loser, stupid / uneducated and/or a failure means I'm not shy about sharing my point of view. I'm sure he can take it. Edited November 20, 2018 by Ant 6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
