Thank you to @Jhhnn and @fskimospy for being able to distinguish between the tragedy of Trump and human tragedy.

They are always there to give a hand to degenerates. Must be nice to have friends on the 'other side' (lol!) to always make excuses for your stupid decisions and lack of planning.

Yes, it's nice to hold conversations with mature adults.

Certainly! If you agree that you are deplorable, then our disagreements appear to be settled in this thread.



Good talk
Reading comprehension. I made no such concession, but I know you need to believe I did. I grow weary of your foolishness. I know you will want to get in the last word. You can have it with whatever point you think you're making. If you choose to respond, please say something clever or amusing.

Oh I know, only the most clever and amusing posters like yourself can use the "I know your are but what am I?" comeback. That is your signature, right?


LOL. Your responses are so pathetic. Try harder please.

I'm all for helping my fellow Americans in their time of need, whoever they are. You merely echo the degeneracy of people who didn't want to help after Sandy.

Not to mention that you're dead wrong about greater Houston which is a majority-minority area.

LOL, why did it take you like five edits to craft this response? You were so hasty to knee jerk that you goofed in your response, and are now flailing about trying to find a clever way to exit. I requested something clever or amusing. I appreciate you providing the latter.

I've posted this before but this whole "greater houston is all democrats" line you and other parrot is BS. There are only 2 districts that voted for HRC in 2016 and they did so by razor-thin margins. The rest of the state with the exception of the southern part, which wasn't damaged by harvey, is blood red deplorable country.


See here:
https://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/texas?mcubz=3

Houston is a huge city with the greater metropolitan area being mostly occupied by deplorables, amongst them many former oil executives who spent their whole lives building up climate change and destroying the environment. They now face the consequences of their actions, and of course you and others are here to save them from spending an extra dime on their own problems which they caused themselves. How is that smart again?

Usually when I read a post by an adult on a technology website I don't expect it to contain the rhetorical equivalent of "I know you are, but what am I?". I can't even think of a dumber, more childish argument and given that you can spell and have decent grammar, I guess my brain just didn't want to believe you were that stupid.


Clearly, I was wrong.

Houston is prime deplorable area. 75% Trump land. Let along the entire southeast Texas that was affected by Harvey. Demographics aside, these are the exactly the deplorables that elected Trump.

Insurance will pay for their shiny new houses and lost jewelry. Theirbold trucks will be replaced with new Fords with alluminum body. California and New York will help as they always do, with tax dollars and aid.

When there is a natural disasters in California, the same deplorables won't even blink an eye because we'll, it is California and fuck California fuck Hollywood and their gun laws.

Stupid Democrats.

I expect people to elevate human suffering ahead of political partisanship. Only a deplorable would try to score political points over a national disaster.

I just got back from donating some canned goods and bottled water at a Houston relief drop, organized in an area that voted overwhelmingly for HRC. I made the donation in your honor.

Fortunately, most of the liberals I know are not like you.

So suddenly now that you’ve destroyed your environment, you’re broke and need a check.... you deplorables expect us liberals to forget how your like has comported itself over the last 8 years and come to your aid? We’re supposed to pretend that you wanted to help Sandy victim and treat you in ways you refuse to treat others in the past?



I would say “not likely”, but there are far too many foolish liberals willing to betray their own principles and help out the same people who spend all day laughing about “liberal tears” as our country goes to hell. You're lucky us liberals are so much more wealthy and productive than you. If we were as stupid and poor as you are we might think twice (like you did about Sandy).

Perfect! Please go donate some more. In fact, get everyone you know down to that shelter right now and have them spend every dime they can to help your fellow deplorables, so decent people like myself don’t have to. Maybe if enough of you idiots actually put your money where your mouth is, instead of spamming forums with the rhetorical turds you call “arguments”, you can pay for each-others idiot decisions instead of having me do it. I’m not holding my breath, of course… but it’s nice to dream.

You've encapsulated quite a lot of irrational anger and butt hurt in one response. I am sorry you are so angry. You've become that which you despise.

Stupid Democrats.

What makes deplorables deplorable? Their attitudes about the rest of America- which you mimic along with their penchant for alternative facts like that 75% number. Hillary won the two most populous counties in Greater Houston-

https://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/texas?mcubz=1

It's obviously not the most deplorable place in America, and even if it was we shouldn't pass up the opportunity to show them that the rest of us are really OK & remind them that we're all in this together.

He's just here to spread the FUD & create deplorable attitudes all around. He lashes out against common decency, the same as those he condemns.

I'm just glad you were able to find something to post other than "I know you are, but what am I?". That was embarrassing, for both of us. I don't want to spend my time on a forum filled with morons, I doubt you do either. So maybe try to post less? You kinda bring everyone here down a few IQ points every time you post something.


The post above is some of your best work. It's moderately cogent, and it isn't something a 9 year old would say. Pretty good for Starbucks

Don't be lying like Trump now. Southeast Texas is deep red and you know it. Houston county went 75% deplorable. You can't pick a city and claim the whole area blue. Hurricane Harvey hit the deepest red counties of Texas.

The blue counties like Dallas and Harris we're not affected at all. Like I said, God works in mysterious ways. I already made my donation and my employer matched 100%. Lying Ted represents this area of the nation, they didn't want to help Sandy victims and any future disasters victims, so be it. Let the churches, corporations and insurance take care of them. They will get compensated. Their houses will be rebuilt with new granite, new cabinets, new wall, new insulation...etc. their black smoke trucks will be even bigger, their yard will be replaced with fresh sod.

What has the deep red counties done when California wild fire struck? When Sandy tore apart Jersey? They are all about themselves hence they vote straight Republicans ballots. Their team or nothing.

Once again, tell me about empathy and liberal value again? Fucking liberals and their big heart. I am trying to be a conservative here. This is what we do bitches.

Nice find! This graphic basically proves what I was saying: That deplorables suffered almost all of the damage from this hurricane.


I wonder how @Jhhnn and @fskimospy will justify their Trump supporter support now? Perhaps more mentions of how many minority deplorables there are in these bright red counties?

Sadly for them, most people understand that being a minority does not somehow negate degenerate behavior.

For somebody that supposedly lives in Texas, you appear to know almost nothing about its demographics and geography.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Houston

Components of the metropolitan area
  • Harris County – 4,092,459.
  • Fort Bend County – 585,375.
  • Montgomery County – 455,746.
  • Brazoria County – 313,166.
  • Galveston County – 291,309.
  • Liberty County – 75,643.
  • Waller County – 43,205.
  • Chambers County – 35,096.

All those highlighted are BRIGHT RED REPUBLICAN COUNTIES. Oh and the one that went "Democrat" voted >40% for Trump. I wonder what would happen if we added all the votes up and counted Trump/HRC for the greater houston area? You think Trump wins? Lol... of course you do... you're smart enough to do the math.
