  I understand you are hurt and angry.

  But you have to understand there are people out there from all around the world, that have no desire to observe the grotesque circus of american politics. You are in your own bubble of people that think the world has ended, but most people in the world have different worries and concerns.

    Most people have the concern that the Trump concept is being copied to their country’s politics now.

      No. Not at all. Most people don’t think about it. They go about their business and think about their job, their kids,spouses, friends, cars, … They think about their local politics, not in relation to American. Than if they do think about american politics, they say to themselves: what a bunch of clowns, then they think of something else.

    That doesn’t change anything, whatever country you are from, using Xitter means you are using and thereby supporting a fascist platform.

    You are in your own bubble

    OK, and which bubble is that?
    Seems to me that you are talking about things you don’t know shit about.

      I see that the emotional level is too great for any discussion. Good luck to you, I hope you get a moment for yourself and have a nice rest of the day.

      Good bye.

        I see you are unable to actually argue your point, and instead choose to continue with the ad hominem.
        I’m still interested to hear what bubble it is you consider me to be in?

      I don’t have any skin in this game but just want to point out that “I understand you are hurt and angry” is an attempt to empathize with you, and not an ad hominem fallacy.

        He/She doesn’t understand anything, he/she doesn’t know me.

        If the comment was along the lines of: I understand IF you are hurt and angry, it would be completely different and not presumptuous.
        But thanks for pointing out a possibly poorly worded good intention.
        As he wrote it, it looks like an ad hominem, because it looks like he accuses me of being emotional and irrational in my argument, which I think I argued based on reason, even though some here disagree in my point.

        I hope you can at least agree that it was poorly worded.
