You didn’t break any rules, but only because there basically aren’t any in the Pit.
However, you did hijack the thread to become about Trump when that is not the topic. You have an extended discussion.
And you very clearly post with the intent to piss people off. You constantly talk about how everyone on the SDMB is horrible. And this response here is not the response of a non-troll being accused of trolling. Defiance is not a normal reaction.
You’re hated here because you regularly act like an asshole, and treat people like garbage. You provide nothing of value to the board. Hell, now I’m going to have to clean up the nonsensical mess you’ve made that have gotten people to agree to something fucking stupid.
No, for fuck’s sake. The context was anti-Nazi protesters being harmed by Nazi violence. Of course Trump would say they weren’t Nazis, because you can’t be publicly seen as defending Nazis. But there would be no way he would have heard about the situation without being told it was about Nazis vs. anti-Nazis.
This is also entirely consistent with his actions in many situations, from racist shit he’s said about black people, to making posts that appeal to his Nazi base (like the stuff with Pepe), his appointment of several white nationalist people to places of power, and his own personal philosophy that the Trump are superior due to their genetics.
There is no reason to need to go to these absurd lengths to hyperliterally parse his words to figure out what he actually meant. It’s the sort of thing that happens when you like someone and they do something bad: you look for excuses so you can continue liking them.
We are in a world of cryptofascists and dogwhistles. When you see someone going hyperliteral, you know they’re trying to pull one over. Don’t fall for the nonsense. Always remember to stay above that level, looking at the bigger picture.
And the moment that you discover that you are the one who is right, you should apologize immediately and end the argument, before she also realizes that you are right.

Bar-B-Que cooking shows. Every two-bit pork purveyor you’ve ever seen on one of these makes some dumb-ass joke about how if they show their recipes with their oh-so-secret ingredients, they’ll have to kill you. God, I hate those guys. :eek:
