If Donald Trump had gotten 2 million more popular votes than Hillary Clinton and still lost the election, would he and his supporters have accepted it graciously and not claimed fraud?
Hell, Trump was claiming fraud before the election even took place.
We're at the point where it doesn't even matter if you post fake news, because people are just going to make shit up and spread it around like it actually happened anyways.
The problem isn't fake news so much as fake logic.
I've read Pamela Sargent. Just so you know, it's science fiction.
I'm honestly not trying to mock your anxiety, Hylandr, because it must be awful to think that there is a conspiracy to try to force you to be gay or transgender, but when you have a break with reality of this magnitude, you need to talk to someone.
Disingenuous politically correct virtue signalling, as it so often man(oops sexism)ifests as kicking THE GREAT SATAN and its innocent sons, is bigoted in and of itself - not to mention narcissistic.
Is there a native English speaker who can translate this for me?
How many Humans have you met that can, or have, spontaneously changed their physiological gender to best suit the needs of the environment?
Humans also don't "spontaneously" do Math, or hit three pointers or lose weight. Or become Republicans. But that doesn't mean those things are somehow unnatural and shouldn't be allowed. People don't "spontaneously" regrow limbs, but we've figured out prostheses.
There have been people changing gender for thousands of years, including Roman emperors and Egyptian pharaohs. It's part of the human condition. Like blue eyes or black skin. Does it freak you out when people wear tinted contact lenses and change their eye color?
Nobody's going to make you gay or transgender or expect you to marry someone gay or transgender. If people are gay or transgender, it's none of your business. You've been living among transgender people your whole life without knowing it. Don't get hysterical now. They're just people.
In fact, he stated that he thought climate change was a "hoax" or "bullshit" no fewer than five times, and none of them seem to have any "joking" in them.
Or maybe you think that linking to quotes from Donald Trump is "fake news" and it's just the MSM trying to make him look stupid by linking to his actual words.
No, you really don't. You just can't think outside the "SJW''s want to kill my mama" cage you've built for yourself.
If search engines didn't make value judgements of some kind, you would search for, "Is the Earth flat" and be likely to get an answer that would be wrong. You might search for, "What do I do if I have seriously swollen testicles" and get sent to a faith healer or homeopath and then die horribly of something that could have been cured with penicillin.
In those cases, you might as well not have a search engine at all and just ask your dog for the answer.
People have spent a lot of time figuring out how to look for information. There is no "liberal bias" to Google, despite what Alex Jones and some dipshit at Breitbart tell you. And if you think a "study" with four people who work for Rupert Murdoch deciding whether something is biased or not is indication of anything, then you shouldn't be messing with search engines, computers or any technology more advanced than a soft rubber ball.
Given the party political support that taints brands in the USA. How about a search engine that just searches? No SJW algorithms, no SJW suggestions, no party political staff, just search results for a global community.
So, you would prefer a search engine that makes absolutely no value judgments? I bet if you really think about it, you'll figure out why that's a bad idea. And it has nothing at all to do with ideology.
If you're having trouble, I bet someone here can help you.

I'm afraid my Scottish friends won't understand the jokes unless there are a lot more curse words.
For what it's worth, the pig was hot as hell.
+1 Ethnic humor
Whaddya got for Scottish people? I'm having Thanksgiving with some tomorrow.
If the BBC offers a channel of only Scottish people reading the news, I'll subscribe immediately.
His "secret" plan to defeat ISIS.
Wisconsin is run by the GOP.

Wisconsin is already auditing their vote.

Because everyone you know wears shoes and has all their teeth.

His twitter comments and the insane stuff he was saying at rallies make up about 90% of everything he's said about anything.
"Just" applied mathematics?

That's not exactly true. We've seen some of his actions already:

He repeated it several times. And I dare you to find the "joke" in this tweet from Donald:

In fact, he stated that he thought climate change was a "hoax" or "bullshit" no fewer than five times, and none of them seem to have any "joking" in them.

Really? Let's see what he said in his own words...

Yeah, both of them.
And you think these things are done to a greater degree today?
If so, you're wrong. I don't know when you grew up, but property crime in the US has been steadily declining for decades.
This is the kind of statement you get when people can no longer think for themselves, but rely upon demagogues.
"we are actually no different from North Korea"
Think about that for a minute.
No, you really don't. You just can't think outside the "SJW''s want to kill my mama" cage you've built for yourself.

What is your definition of "will" that makes you think animals change gender "at will"?
