@Medical:
I remember Obama doing a Reddit AMA at some point but not sure about Trump.
I don't know why anyone would want a Trump AMA between the lying, misremembering of facts, projection, gaslighting, self flagellation.
It would basically be no different than his usual bullshit.
I just went digging and found my old post about it in the election thread.
So at least I'm not crazy / imagining it.
The link in the post is dead though, due to the subreddit being banned now.
They will cry political persecution, some slimebag will try to sue the company, the conservatives will get rilled up. Too much risk to demonetize the plataform.
Hell, the bolsominions are calling the Trump twitter ban censorship and a 1984 move. (Not that they understand that censorship is imposed by gov't or that 1984 and Animal Farm are against the totalitarian regimes of the 30's such as Mussolini's, Stalinism and The Reich).

He probably created the account only for doing the AMA at r/Donald, since the former was nuke there's nothing left on his account.

So when the hunt begins:
At this point can we just officially ban trump from arlong park.
The real arlong park was the friends we made along the way
We kind of already have an unofficial no assholes rules around here.
Though every once in awhile someone tests it.
Others bemoaned that apparently they lost so much of their savings betting Trump would win in November. Legit scary.
I wish I was more in the gambling scene… people were still putting money on Trump even AFTER the election. Could have made a lot of scratch if I knew how to go about it.
@Blake:

We could if we had the White House's IP range.
Trump is officially permanent banned from Twitter.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/08/tech/trump-twitter-ban/index.html
2021 is starting out great! Finally they banned his account. Twitter and other social media sites should make rules that apply to everyone and not make exceptions for politicians. It isn't fair at all.
Imagine being banned from twitter twice in a day:
Well damn.
cancel culture is a conservative myth because they don't like when their ideas are questioned/called vile/not adored/dispproven, no matter how much they cry they been silenced they always find new media plataforms to keep bitching about and spreading their vitriol.
Actually cancel culture is real and it applies it all over the spectrum, just the idea that "conservatives" feel like their voice is being silenced.
For example:
One Million Moms wants Arthur cancelled for ‘promoting homosexual lifestyle’:
https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2019/05/20/one-milllion-moms-arthur-cancelled-promoting-homosexual-lifestyle/
This is an example of cancel culture where the right wants to cancel stuff like gay marriage in a cartoon, and Alabama actually banned the episode from airing even:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/alabama-public-television-refuses-to-air-arthur-episode-with-gay-wedding/
Plus, it can happen without political spectrum like right now my landlord is trying to silence or cancel me because he doesn't want me to complain anymore about my loud neighbor's noise and he threatened eviction if I complain again. When the noise is clearly loud where I took decibel readings showing how loud it is, plus this is discrimination or looking down on me because I have PTSD and I get triggered by the noise. I will be taking this court as I have a lot of evidence to prove my case, but it's just a form of me being canceled by a irresponsible landlord.
Soon the only place left will be 4chan.
I can't see Trump on 4chan, that would be very weird if that happened. (I use it sometimes but very rarely.)
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ErT3H6bW8AUPYqi?format=jpg&name=medium
Well, damn. At least social media platforms are finally enforcing the rules. Still wish they didn't make exceptions because a person is a politician, etc. It's a bit dumb.
@Blake:

I can't see Trump reading or watching One Piece. He probably side with the World Government if he did, and saying the Strawhats are being extreme left or something like that 
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/364114518059646986/797694426621280276/image0.png
Well, damn. I wouldn't think Trump would actually have an account since he has a wife he can have sex with, but one user on the Discord server pointed out that they probably are not having a very good sex life at all.
Though the image of Trump fapping to porn…. gives me creepy vibes for some reason. Though at the same it I feel like it would be really funny. Mixed feelings man >_<

I think he's banned because people use it as a platform for all kinds of content banned from other sites.
They don't want Pornhub to become an Alt-Right hot spot.

It's mostly been just reuploads of videos that were deleted off of Youtube in the past, as far as I know.
It's possible that someone asked them directly if he could post content there and they banned him in response.

Nobody wants to think about Trump jerking off (ew), but do you honestly think that a perverted, creepy old geezer who's had three wives, numerous affairs, dalliances with prostitutes, and runs the Miss America pageant doesn't watch porn?
Trump called Georgia a third time about the election result.

I guess I just never could see him jerk off. He always felt like some kind of crazy person who complained about elections being rigged, etc. As well as having an attractive wife. I know couples can watch porn together, but one just fapping to porn when they are married? It feels weird to me. I don't know. Sorry if I'm being confusing or being weird. I just never thought about it.
And….. what? He had dalliances with prostitutes??? NANI? I didn't know of this. >< Maybe Trump is a nymphomaniac or something if he needs to cheat on his wife ><
It's mostly been just reuploads of videos that were deleted off of Youtube in the past, as far as I know.
Oh, that's a bit weird to upload to a porn site. Like if it isn't porn what's the point of posting it on pornhub?
It's possible that someone asked them directly if he could post content there and they banned him in response.
Ooo maybe. Maybe he wanted to do a sex video with him and Melania. :wassat:
Though….. that would probably get a lot of dislikes >.< Sorry to everyone for bring weird images in your head, not sure how else to put it without being blunt. ^^;;;;;

You don't need to be a nymphomaniac to cheat on your spouse. Some people just don't have the morals to stay faithful, and/or their marriage is just that unhappy. It's also been pretty clear now that Melania solely married Trump for his money, theirs is hardly something to be called a romance. I wouldn't be surprised if the moment he leaves office she files for divorce, takes their kid and leaves him in the dust.
Out of curiosity would some of that apply to a cough specific someone in a specific thread whose been giving you a hard time because you and some others made a reasonable point about some questionable aspects in a certain series?
I wish I was more in the gambling scene… people were still putting money on Trump even AFTER the election. Could have made a lot of scratch if I knew how to go about it.
Oh it gets worse if you remember those articles I posted way back about it some of those people were actually trying to sue the bookies for paying out to those that bet on Biden despite the fact that in order for them to have done so the bookies would’ve had to go with the official results which I know went with the count that existed before Georgia’s was called.
Nearly 3 months and people still forget that Biden didn’t need Georgia to win by that point.
Also Trump apparently hasn’t been in contact with the family of the Capitol Officer who was killed
https://www.rawstory.com/capitol-police-officer-killed/
Which truth be told is a lose-lose situation
You think a guy who dodged the army, openly mocks veterans of war, would care for the life of a veteran cop killed in an insurrection for his ego?

She renegotiated the prenup after the Stormy affair came out. She certainly believes the story.
And yes, she's leaving the minute he's not president anymore. He'd make her suffer if she left and humiliated him during. But after? She was probably ready to leave four years ago. Took six months before she moved to the white house.

To be fair Robo, China ain't fascist. They are a totalitarian Stalinist state with adequate cultural policies and a capitalist economy (the Chinese Communism of Mao upgraded by Deng).
They are less hateful than fascist but not less problematic.

Ol Arnold has a thing to say.
Never expect a bodybuilder to make more sense than most of the GOP but here we are.
btw
The Americans would have probably elected Arnold president a long time ago, if only he was born in the US…

But I had it on good authority via some guys on twitter he was huge supporter of the military, police, and according to some guy from Switzerland with the pride flag in his handle a friend of the LGBTQ community.
Also:

He lost a lot of favor when news about his secret kid came out, and he'd have run for Senate or something if he actually wanted to stay in politics. I think Arnold's happier just sniping at the GOP and cameoing in Terminator movies from time to time.
When Arnold took that sword, he was aiming the memes.
To quote Tom Lehrer: " Send the Marines."

A lot of people don't understand that Fascism ≠ Communism.
A lot of people don't have any basic understanding in history, sociology and philosophy - the cornerstones of political theory - but that don't stop them from spitting sewage or typing shit.
Or even people that have some understanding of it twist in defense of their on ideologies, such as Olavo Carvalho - Bolsonaro's family personal guru - defending the voter fraud theory and saying the the proletariat and the left are in the pockets of the billionaires.

Just from Google:
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.
That sounds like modern China to me.
It's not a pure fascist dictatorship but under Xi I'd definitely say it's become a fascist state.
A lot of people don't understand that Fascism ≠ Communism.
Why can't a country combine communism and fascism?
I've been addressing China as "West Taiwan" in conversation for a while now.

Not it hasn't, Mao's China has always been a totalitarian state. The Rupture Between China and USSR was due to Khrushchov (one of Stalin's right hand mans) denouncing the crimes of Stalinism. Mao was a fervent Stalinism, the cultural revolution and and Communism adapted to Chinese traditions only begun because doing a copy+paste of Stalin's model wasn't working well for China.
Why can't a country combine communism and fascism?
Because they have economical ideological divergences to great to coexist. In the early 20s and 30s the western democracies saw fascism as a good response to the threat of communism.
If we look at the early signs of fascism:
China fits 1,2,5,6,9,10,13,14. Trump's 4 years check 1-3 and 7-13.

@MDL:

As much as it sounds funny, don't do it Chiang Kai-shek was a horrible person and he is the only reason that Taiwan still claims the whole area of Qing Dynasty, instead of embracing the creation of a new nation.

So going only by the quote:

China checks:
Far-right - LOL Nope
Authoritarian - YES
Ultranationalist - Unless is against Taiwan or to talk about the Japanese war crimes I don't think so
Dictatorial Power - We could argue that inner elections of a single party state checks this of not, but Xi is more controlled by his constitution than Il Duce and Hitler.
Suppression of Opposition - YES,the easiest one.
Regimentation of Society - No, that think exist in North Korea though
Regimentation of Economy - Nope, Deng took care of that.
So yes, the Chinese gov't is a vile corrupt entity that puts little care for human rights or the lives of it citizens - whether be it by repression of non Han groups or by its sweatshops of foreign companies - but they are not by any metric fascists.
They are one of the types of totalitarianism that Orwell wrote about in Animal Farm and 1984 - in the case stalinism or rather the hybrid model of stalinism with chinese traditions and an open market economy.
If we’re being fair 7-13 have been problems in U.S, Politics long before Trump tripped into a presidency.
Doug Jensen, of Iowa, who was one of the most confrontational instigators of the Trump insurrection, has been arrested.
He doesn't look so enthusiastic now. His energy sure has changed. Facing potential Federal charges might have something to do with the shift I guess.

As far as I can tell 4 and 11 are the only ones China doesn't have.
They regularly use enemies as a tool to unite (and distract) the masses, they're obsessed with thought crime as as a national security concern and that overlaps with any and all religions other than the state religion (although as with other modern dictatorships they won't formally acknowledge it as a religion).
11 is almost borderline because intellectuals and the arts are tolerated as long as they don't offend the state or inconvenience the state (video games are widely seen as a scourage and many parents send their kids to horrible reeducation camps for gaming).
12 is significant because China absolutely has an obsession with finding criminals and handing down extreme punishments.
Their enforcement is lacking in many areas because of all the corruption but I don't think that disqualifies them.

Yeah OK… it's my fault for not trusting myself to define the word and resorting to a canned definition.
I don't believe fascism has to be far-right, largely because the right/left model isn't particularly accurate and every society has wildly varying levels of freedom, tolerance, hate,authoritarianism, and support for the rich or the poor.
I would say that a totalitarian regime that promotes racism and nationalism, is highly restrictive of free speech and brutally cracks down on all who displease the state regardless of their intent is not particularly liberal, communism or no.

Fascism is FAR-RIGHT, Totalitarianism can come in in any place of the spectrum.
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it–always.”
Fascism is FAR-RIGHT, Totalitarianism can come in in any place of the spectrum.
The three most important components of fascism are extreme authoritarianism, extreme reduction of personal liberty and state-sponsored racism.
Even in this country there are a surprising number of fascist Trump supporters who support major socialist reforms because populism is a great tool to make people back fascist leaders.
If the trains run on time a certain percentage of the population will believe Mussolini is doing a good job.
