DONALD TRUMP JR. SHARES WHITE SUPREMACIST MEME
Apparently, Don Jr. is happy to be in the company of Pepe the Frog.
[quote]Just two months after the Trump campaign got into trouble for tweeting an image that was [url=http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/07/donald-trump-tweet-frozen]widely seen as anti-Semitic[/url], a member of the Republican nominee’s family is at it again. On Sunday, Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of Donald Trump, proudly promoted the above Instagram post, which includes a meme frequently shared by white supremacists. “Apparently I made the cut as one of the Deplorables,” he wrote, referring to a series of [url=http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/09/clinton-basket-of-deplorables]controversial comments[/url] Hillary Clinton recently made about Trump’s supporters. “All kidding aside I am honored to be grouped with the hard working men and women of this great nation that have supported@realdonaldtrump [sic] and know that he can fix the mess created by politicians in Washington.”

I can't even literally believe this. I'm shaking.

5 RepliesFor those who don't understand the premise behind this thread, i.e. our rare friend the Pepe supposedly being a symbol of white supremacy, this is a perfect example showcasing what a lot of #OffTopic users so desperately need to learn about trolling. Instigating people, angering them, inciting a response, etc, is not trolling. "God is not real XD 😂😂😂" is not trolling. Just being an asshole to people is not trolling. You are not trolls, you're just insecure teens being assholes because of your anonymity. Making people believe a cartoon frog is a symbol of white supremacy by playing on their lack of familiarity with the Internet [i]is trolling[/i]. Not only is it comical, but it also forces uninformed people to question it as if there might actually be a chance that this cartoon frog is a symbol of white supremacy. Creating a plausibility in this being true when it's obviously not makes this a good troll. How do you know when your troll is successful? When you have people writing with belief in your pseudo-truth.
