agree this was a tone deaf post. Attacking anons who felt a let down after this very board amped up last nights announcement for a week as something bigger than it was.
@Catsfive should know better than this. There is a difference in doomers and those that are frustrated and beat down.
I think we should be going after the enemy right now, not each other.
P.S. in defense of @catsfive I know I hit the deport button several times last night, so there was a ton of true doomer shill activity last night. He is probably getting ptsd from it. :)
The divisive BS is more destructive than anything the left does, to be honest.
As I read the title I went from "that's a good decision" to "wowsa, that's divisively condescending".
I can definitely say that Trump absolutely won't win if his base is too busy eating itself to vote for him 😐.
Anyway, that aside, I don't really get the people who were like "I'm done supporting Trump!" because of the announcement. By all means, be frustrated that there wasn't anything about actually fixing the problem.
But until Trump gets his second term or he decides he's too old for this shit, there's no reason to support anyone else -- or no one.
Biggest problem were the people overhyping this with their shitty, unrealistic "predictions" getting pinned, and lashing out at people who said to temper expectations.
It was never going to be more than a 2024 run. His hype was classic Trump embellishment. Those embellishments are part of his charisma. I'm still surprised some people hadn't learned that before last night.
Last point: This community expends a lot of effort to try and force people to feel a certain way, through negative condescending posts or banning or downvoting and verbally attacking people with socially taboo labels -- which is just like the left -- and this isn't helping to do anything but foster resentment.
Patriots is guilty of it too. If nothing else it has shown that we really are two sides of a coin. Just, like.. we are a gold coin and the left are the opposite side of like, a penny.
great comment. I agree, while I was pissed last night, I never considered abandoning Trump. I will go down with his ship if that's what it takes.
Funny you mention unrealistic expectations of last night. I knew it was just 2024, but it is easy to dream about the storm, once I thought about it as a low % possibility I got caught up in it. I bet many are like me, didn't really believe it would happen but were hoping like a kid on Christmas morning that it would.
Yeah, that's why I referred to the hopium as a jetstream in another post.
The thought and feeling of the storm finally hitting and getting us out of this, or at least offering us a direct way out without all the powerlessness we currently have to go about things is intoxicating.
It makes us feel a false hope even when the source -- Trump -- has a track record of embellishing his words. Trump is a confident showman, and he knows how to get people to tune in.
Some people ran away with it, and with a false hope for something as big as freedom from the present and looming tyranny comes crushing depression when that freedom isn't provided.
I got labeled for "dooming" when I said to temper expectations. I got labeled for dooming when I say I told them so. I get labeled for dooming when I assign accountability to people who share as much of the blame for over hyping as the people who got overhyped.
The label isn't meaningful. It's over used for disagreement with a narrative. It's like "shill".
Big pitfall the left fell into was labeling everything they didn't like to socially outcast the ones they assigned it to. I'm not big on that.
A much needed smack in the face, imo. There are no cry closets in war. The enemy is trying to demoralize and fuck with your emotions. Get it out of your system, then on to the next thing. Take a break if you need to, then get back into it. Here's my contribution to the "pep talk" or "pepe talk" if you prefer: https://greatawakening.win/p/16ZE4de4IL/inspiration-washington-encouragi/
I agree that the enemy is trying to demoralize us, so let's not do it to each other. It is ok to get pissed off. There is a difference between a "doomer" who is here to detract and an anon blowing off steam.
Yeah, there seems to be people stoking division from both ends. It’d be nice for this board not to descend into bitter infighting, I get enough of that everywhere else.
I know it’s easier said than done and we’re being astroturfed to hell.
Yep. These posts are doing far more to hurt and split Trump’s base than the people that are upset at the current situation, There are numerous posts like this right now. One thing I’ve learned about conservatives is you talk to them like adults if you want to have them listen to what you have to say. These condescending posts make me think of the shit I see from emotional leftists on Reddit.
Divisive, condescending, hostile... aren't we here to escape being treated like this?
At least it wasn't a snarky, hate-filled ad hominem attack laced with obscenities and accompanied by a ban. (I'll probably get another one just for typing this, but c'est la vie, je suppose.)
If you don't make "Posts" but prefer to simply engage in discussions via replies, you can be considered a non-contributor completely without value—no matter how many tens of thousands of times anons have disproven that assessment by upvoting. Still the site and mod team are excellent,...in general. Imagine where we'd be otherwise. T_D? (Total Doomers?) No thanks.

I wasn’t pissed because I wasn’t expecting much. I’m just glad it wasn’t him opening up the Trump News Network.
Well said.
Look. It is a gaggle of concern fags all bitching and moaning in unison... in a parody thread about "dooming". The irony is... cosmic.
Please continue - it is unintentionally hilarious. Thank you.

Guess what..... I'm sending you backstage VIP Chemical Romance tickets!
Plus I lost a LOT of money on DWAC. I would like to start seeing something new around here, instead they mock us as doomers.
I have a lot on dwac to, remember it isn't a loss until you sell.

... and another concern fag joins the gaggle. Congrats, and welcome !!!
If you fell for the hopium that is your own damn fault. Dont try to pin your weakness on others.
lol okay division fag, keep attacking others.

Seriously, how long is it gonna take for them to get this outta their system?
Very Very VERY thorough takes time.
