Trump Supporters Are Getting Triggered by an Adaptation of a Novel Over 30 Years Old - GMDino - 03-24-2017 http://observer.com/2017/03/trump-handmaids-tale-elizabeth-moss/ Quote:Hulu just released a new trailer for The Handmaid’s Tale, their upcoming series starring Elizabeth Moss set to premiere on April 26, and it looks chilling. RE: Trump Supporters Are Getting Triggered by an Adaptation of a Novel Over 30 Years Old - michaelsean - 03-24-2017 God I remember having to read that. Ugh.

Sounds like The Handmaid's Tale makes that look all bad and gets women to questioning patriarchy. That way lies political correctness, which includes respect for racial minorities, which if it spreads can make people less likely to deport immigrants. I don't think Trump supporters have a big problem with using terrorist attacks as an excuse for unchecked power, if that will build the wall, ban Muslims, give arrogant liberals a slap in the face, bring god back into government, and make America great again. Maybe some would be ok with the story if it were told from Commander Fred's point of view instead of a whiny woman. If sure Gilead would not seem all that bad if you were a guy and in charge. RE: Trump Supporters Are Getting Triggered by an Adaptation of a Novel Over 30 Years Old - xxlt - 04-03-2017 Were they given their trigger warning? No! So leave 'em alone! You know they only make fun of things that are near and dear to their core being: sexual deviance, the threat of Sharia Law, idolatry, trigger warnings, a President who is a dictator... RE: Trump Supporters Are Getting Triggered by an Adaptation of a Novel Over 30 Years Old - bfine32 - 04-03-2017 Is there anything to validate that Trump supporters have the monopoly on negative views on the series or is this just something else to try to shine a negative light on Trump and his supporters? Because I know a lot of conservatives that did not vote for Trump including myself.

This literally has nothing to do with the story posted. ![]() RE: Trump Supporters Are Getting Triggered by an Adaptation of a Novel Over 30 Years Old - bfine32 - 04-03-2017 (04-03-2017, 03:15 PM)GMDino Wrote: This literally has nothing to do with the story posted.

You're moving the goalposts a bit, here. You initial question was asking if Trump supporters had a "monopoly on negative views on the series." Now in this post you seem to be asking for validation that they are Trump supporters at all that are referenced in the story. Those are two very different questions.

Now in this post you seem to be asking for validation that they are Trump supporters at all that are referenced in the story. Those are two very different questions. I have no idea how this is a moving goal post. Because I left out the word Monopoly in the follow up? Perhaps Dino has been quickly unseated in obtaining a new level of WTF. The article states Trump supporters "triggered" and I asked for anything to validate Trump Supporters are the only ones triggered or even if the tweets referenced are from Trump Supporters as Conservative does not always equal Trump Supporter. So do you agree that the question I post had "literally nothing" to do with the OP or were you just saying? Either of you can feel free to answer either question if you think the point of mu questioning changed.

Say what you will, but your wording on the second post does change the question being asked. If you are sticking with your first question, then no, it doesn't have relevance to the article as the article did not claim Trump supporters were the only ones that took umbrage with the series.

Then why do you think the article was titled Trump supporters? Do you think they chose it because they want to suggest that a couple Trump supporters are against the series? Just so I'm understanding what you are saying: You think someone asking to validate that Trump supporters have a monopoly on an article titles Trump Supporters is not relevant? I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I'm pretty sure that is what I just read you type.

I am saying that my inference of the article is not that they are stating only Trump supporters take umbrage with the series. I am inferring that they find it humorous or sad (or a combination thereof) that there are Trump supporters that do. My inference from your question/statements is that you think the article is trying to state that only Trump supporters take umbrage with it.

Quote:But perhaps the most interesting revelations from the new trailer are down in its comments section where hordes of ornery Trump supporters who can’t find anything in the world to get angry about have decided to project their ire onto a decades-old work of fiction. You can infer what you want about the point the article was trying to make. We'll just disagree on that as much as we do if the question(s) posed were germane to the topic.

That's why I said it was literally nothing to do with the story. Perhaps finding a story where the show is panned by an audience for other reasons would have helped rather than feel Trump supporters are being unfairly singled out in a story about Trump supporters. ![]() |
