Why support Trump and Putin ?
0 2018-01-11 by thepaip
I'm not really a conspiracy expert, but I see a lot of pro-trump / pro-putin here. I'd just like to know why they are good considering the fact that everyone else is worse and I
In my perspective, I think that Trump is not a good president. Trump seems to be anti-LGBT and also is okay with companies paying lower tax. He also seems to be not trying to support more freedom on the internet , supporting Net Neutrality and getting the NSA to reduce surveillance.
Putin also seems to have suppot here, but I don't know why he is supported here other then the fact that Putin wants Russia outside of Rothschild control. In my perspective, Putin is not a good president since he has a lot of power in Russia (like a dictatorship), he isn't supportive for a progressive society , he seems to not support LGBT and he censors and conducts a lot of surveillance in Russia.
I may have been misinformed or understood it wrongly or perhaps I'm wrong, but I'd like to know now.

PLC is probably one of the most tenured and respected commenters in this sub.

Infamous for sure.

Respected for calling everyone he disagrees with a shill, you mean.

I can’t believe we’ve entered the timeline where people are using the NSA’s reduction in illegal surveillance against Trump. Jesus. Titty. Fucking. Christ.
Also, fantastic response to this shit post.

He saved Syria from the US, Israel and Saudi. He exposed that the US was using ISIS. He put a road block in the US illegal wars. For that alone, Putin did the world a favor. It may be the only reason Iran has not been invaded yet.
Putin and Russia are not perfect, but I am tired of the US acting like they are morally superior or more free.
Sometimes standing up for Putin isn't so much standing up for Putin but standing up for truth, and also being anti elite who have hijacked America. Why stand by and be ruled by and illegal global elite. The rulers here are not "our" guys, they are war criminals working for someone else.

Putin believe it or not is a peacemaker.
Trump is fighting a hard battle against people that want him to be a good little puppet like Obama or kill him.
His economic achievements last year were great and once he get's his judicial system fixed up you will see more improvements.
I would say you get most of your news from the mainstream media?
1 Allinon72 2018-01-11
A lot of people seem to mistake not believing the Russian collusion story for being pro Trump. And thus if you're pro Trump you must be pro Putin. Of course this is all nonsense.
In fact, in the last few weeks in particular, this sub has turned decidedly pro Clinton.
1 Mooseisabitfat 2018-01-11
In what world has this sub become pro Clinton?
1 MissType 2018-01-11
In a world where paid shills and easily led fools exist. (i.e this one.)
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11
I'm sorry, but do you honestly think the Clinton campaign (that isn't even a campaign anymore...you realize she lost, right?) has nothing better to do but to actually PAY random people REAL MONEY to sit on a sub like /conspiracy and just randomly post anti-Trump/pro-Clinton shit? If that isn't an exaggerated since of worth/importance, I don't know what is.
If people actually pay to post anti-Trump stuff, please, please, please direct me towards the source. I would LOVE to get paid to just randomly visit reddit subs and spam their boards with anti-Trump material. I've got some student loans/credit card bills that I want to pay down.
1 RedditHelpsEnslaveUs 2018-01-11
You're conflating the "Clinton Campaign" with CIA fuckery.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11
The overall ridiculousness of the idea doesn't change, regardless of whether or not you put CIA or Clinton in the subject.
1 RedditHelpsEnslaveUs 2018-01-11
If you don't understand that the CIA already IS influencing every bit of mainstream media you see, even this site, you've still got your head wilfully buried in the sand.
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
I'm sure Correct The Record would love to have you. Go ahead and send Brock an email.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11
Seriously?! I could use a part-time job for sure - especially one that allows me to sit on my ass and type statements that have absolutely zero impact on actual political dealings! What do you think "Correct the Record" pays? Do you think they pay by the post or by the day?
I've got about 2K in credit cards right now, so how many anti-Trump posts do you think I'd have to submit in order to get rid of that debt? I am anxiously awaiting your response...
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
If you think manipulating conversations en masse on social media has zero effect, then I don't know what to tell you.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11
Um, why did you change your previous post from "Correct the Record" to "Share Blue"?
Also, if you think the posts in /conspiracy have had ANY actual impact on ANY actual political issue in the REAL world, then I don't know what to tell you either...
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
Because Correct the Record was pre election. It's now Share Blue.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11

1 WilliamKingHarvey 2018-01-11
Can you answer honestly?
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
If you were someone that honestly cared about the answer instead of asking just to set up a rebuttal, maybe I would.
But no thanks. Not in the mood to deal with deliberately obtuse users today.
This information has been posted here countless times, and any regular user on a conspiracy sub knows shills exist.
In your short history here, you have an inordinate amount of posts trying to discredit the fact that there are paid shills. Which tells me you're not interested in the truth.
1 stupidfuckingtroll 2018-01-11
Gatekeeping. You can only hear the answer once I’m confident you will agree with me.
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
Gaslighting. Receiving evidence from reliable sources, yet continuing to deflect and discredit.
1 stupidfuckingtroll 2018-01-11
What evidence? You just refused to post any didn’t you?
1 lh_counterpoint 2018-01-11
u/RedPillFiend is a gaslighter too, calling me obsessed and weird because he wanted to score some cheap shots against me. Just an FYI in case you see him again.
0 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
Complains about behavior being called obsessed and weird.
Proceeds to act obsessed and weird.
What's wrong? Slow day over at TMOR?

Please stop gaslighting. Thank you for teaching me that word, but now stop doing it.
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
Haha. You're amusing.
1 MissType 2018-01-11
Apology accepted.
I’m not going to debate the presence of shills. Spend a little time here with an open mind and decide for yourself. You can either accept they exist across the entirety of Reddit, or you can conclude that they’re everywhere else but have miraculously chosen to avoid this sub.
Have an amazing day.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11
Apology accepted? Oh, bless your sweet, little heart. Do I believe people shitpost? Believe me, I've spent enough time in this sub to know that they do. Do I believe that somebody is getting rich off half-assed attempts to smear political opponents through Reddit? Nah.
1 stupidfuckingtroll 2018-01-11
APOLOGY ACCEPTED! YOU LOST CUCK GET OVER IT MAGA

What an appropriate username...
1 stupidfuckingtroll 2018-01-11
Lol sorry I couldn’t resist. We both know that’s what the other user really wanted to say
1 RedPillFiend 2018-01-11
This sub has NOT become pro Clinton.
That's the invaders here that astroturf threads to make you think that.
1 kushpop 2018-01-11
Has any other president waved a lgbt flag on stage at a rally? Get out of here with that he’s anti lgbt , turn off cnn you are brainwashed
1 oldMiseryGuts 2018-01-11
He tried to ban trans people from the military. How is that pro LGBTQ?
1 der_titan 2018-01-11
Even worse, he did it against the wishes of the military and weakened the country's combat effectiveness - just as a distraction.
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
As a pro trump lesbian I can confirm he’s absolutely not anti-LGBT. He’s the first republican President to enter office pro LGBT. I’m also an Air Force veteran, and I oppose transgenders in the military as well. It has nothing to do with their sexuality, its for the safety of the other service members. Example, youre transitioning and get deployed and you’re stuck in a foxhole for 90 days with no access to any medication or hormones you need. Our military excels at combat readiness and not being able to have medication you need would interfere with that. Also, hes not a politician. He cant be baught which is why other politicians and the elite hate him, they have no leverage over him. He loves our police and our military which is something they haven’t felt in a very long time. He loves money, and he knows everyone else loves money and he’s tired of the American people being robbed. If you go watch any of his interviews from the 80s/90s/00s, his stance on anything has never changed, unlike politicians who will say anything for a vote. If you ignore the MSM and research anything he’s said in the past 30 years you’ll see that he loves the American people.
As for Putin I’m no expert on him but would it be the worst thing for us to have a good relationship with the other superpower of the world??
1 PowerfulAP7 2018-01-11
He picked a vice president who openly opposes gay mariage.
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
Gay marriage is a state issue. If Pence had any authority to ban gays nation wide or talk Trump into it, then i’m sure my veiws would be different. I’d be hard pressed if you found any old politician who didn’t openly oppose gay marriage at one point. Including Hillary and Obama
1 PowerfulAP7 2018-01-11
Fair enough but it's hard to say Trump fully supports gay rights when he chose a VP, one of if not the most important position in his cabinet, who is so vocal against them. Wether he's able to set policies or not, it's his stance on the issue
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
I understand where you’re coming from. But lets face it, most of the republicans are anti-LGBT and they’re just scummy people. He had to pick a republican who he felt shared the same policies with for the nation as a whole, not just for one group of people. Don’t judge Trump off of Pence because I guarantee someone as outspoken and independent as Trump didn’t even want a VP lol.
1 lh_counterpoint 2018-01-11
And Trump is definitively no better, if you've looked into his political stance on marriage equality and even condemnation of civil unions.
Don't gatekeep. If it's bad, it's bad.
Pence and his creepy old-school bigotry are bad.
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
Ok we get it you’re gay and you hate trump. I live in NY and the LGBT marched in stance with Islam last year, they execute gays. So I’m not sure what any gay persons stance is on anything. Like i said we’ll probably never see eye to eye but I have the right to marriage and my own views.
1 lh_counterpoint 2018-01-11
Hahahahaha
Mike Pence supported execution of gays.
Putin supports the torture of gays.
So I’m not sure what any gay persons stance is on anything. Like i said we’ll probably never see eye to eye but I have the right to marriage and my own views.
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
I’m aware of Putins stance on gays but I don’t live in Russia. And did Pence do it? Like I said he has no authority. Why are you dividing the nation into gays vs everyone else? Do you have a stance on any other issue?
1 lh_counterpoint 2018-01-11
I'm aware of your stance on Putin. Haha
What part of "vice president"
Haha what? Why are you lying about me?
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
You’re being way too radical. This is why Trump won

Because as a real lesbian™ you don't care about gay people losing their rights when they cross state borders.
1 drp0744 2018-01-11
Of course I do. But the conversation wasn’t about state governors it’s about the Vice President of the whole country who has no authority to do that.
1 lh_counterpoint 2018-01-11
This is a Gish gallop argument which is mostly false, but when trying to disprove one thing you said I accidentally disproved another.
"Trump has been a consistent opponent of marriage equality. He said that he opposed it because he was a “traditional” guy, choosing to support domestic partnership benefits instead."
"Trump later reversed himself and said he also opposed civil unions."

1 drp0744 2018-01-11
I meant on policy, but you’re right and I should’ve been more clear on that. LGBT issues are not what I personally base my votes on. Yes I love girls, but I also love keeping my own money and times of peace. There’s a lot more to worry about than the issues of one group of people which I said previously. The majority of LGBT issues have been solved. There’s more to focus on now. I’m sure we’ll never see eye to eye on this but thats whats so great about this, everyone expressing their opinions.
1 Nick11288 2018-01-11

I don't support the former, and the latter is complicated. In fact a my friend and I have a not-exactly kosher play on Putin that we always use when we talk amongst outselves (you can probably figure it out).
Putin is a mass of contradictions because his role is that of a moderator balancing the various factions and oligarchs threatening to pull that country apart. He matters only in the sense that he is a stabilizing force that prevents Russia from slipping into the mayhem of the 1990s. You have to remember this in context how bad Yeltsin was - a man who ordered the military attacked and murder his own government and who let Chechnya and terrorism spiral out of control.
The bottom line is that stable governments are a necessary condition for global stability, and I see a leader who wound down the Chechnya conflict and is now helping to pull Syria back from the brink as a generally positive force in the world, even as I don't agree with his on-again-off-again exploitation of the situation in the Donbass, Ukraine, ie supporting the rebels only to pull the rug out from under them to gain leverage on the Kiev government.

As an ally, he's been a bit flaky, and this is something that's not well understood in the west, as they want to portray him as a kind of master strategist. He's constrained by the various factions that he has to balance constantly within his own government, and Russia will never have truly coherent policy. But what the US can realize is that large countries have their own spheres of influence and regional interests. They don't have to be fought and denied at every turn, as that will only exacerbate conflict and make things worse for everyone.

I mean, it's okay if he chooses to not like the LGBT community. But then, he should respect and treat others also equally even if he does not like it.
