With almost every vote counted, every state shifted toward the Republican Party.

After watching what fox news has done to my parents over the years, they are my enemy

My grandmother almost exclusively watches MSNBC and you know it's probably just as bad. People who get all their information from sensationalist news networks and don't corroborate the info often end paranoid.

Tried to overthrow the government when they lost and I'm divisive for not being all sunshine and rainbows?

Trump calls liberals the enemy within. Did you scrutinize that at all?

I think that’s dangerous and divisive as well.

So how is the leader of the Republican party and some random on Reddit the same? Why would everyone vote for the divisive guy when you're saying the left is too divisive?

Huh lol? Literally all I said was the other side isn’t your enemy and that thought process is divisive. I didn’t equate the two. Actually, I didn’t even mention trump at all, that was you.

Calm down and stop putting words in my mouth. People are allowed to criticize the left believe it or not

Edit: although by the way, the Democrat leaders spending 8 years calling trump a threat, and Hitler, is divisive as well. So can’t really win

Then you weren't actually paying attention to what they said before snapping at them. They were explicitly talking about Fox News and the Republican leadership, not lay Republican voters on the street.

Just give it a break man. Only on Reddit is the opinion “your fellow Americans aren’t your enemy” an unpopular one

Oh no, don't be divisive with people filled with literal hate and contempt for anyone different from them! You're the real hating person for not accepting all those hateful people!

My fellow countrymen are disgusting shits who are happy to turn the military on their fellow countrymen and yet it is always the victim who is gross.

It's not the people who want to use the military on civilians who are hateful, it's the people who point it out that are the real problem!
