We have a lot of posters here that don't understand difficult concepts like ratings and corporate profit motives.

Ironically the ones that are easiest for people like this guy, Don Lemon etc. to troll are people from the far end of the other political spectrum and they just can't help themselves.

There's gotta be some sort of 12 step program out there for politics one would hope.

I think everyone could benefit from a break in this particular forum and politics in general.

In many African countries they don't wash their hands unless they're Muslims (Islam requires regular washing as a part of prayer).

One thing still seared into my memory was trying to wash my hands after going to the bathroom at the Antananarivo International Airport. After eating at probably their most prominent restaurant at the airport (some Italian, pizza place), I used the bathroom only to find none of the sinks worked. I brought over the manager and after he tested and confirmed, told me "Come back tomorrow, it will be fixed." Horrified, I asked him where the employees wash their hands so I could use their bathroom. Confused, he replied they used the same bathroom seemingly oblivious to the fact that meant employees weren't washing their hands while handling your food.

They seem to get sick less of the time than me, but when they get sick they really really get sick.

Both of you don't understand that because of media, social media, mainstream media, comments, forums, etc, we are faced with monumental stupidity on a daily basis. So much so that it is often not as easy as it used to be to discern "trolling" vs "someone actually believes this". It is still possible in some cases, but it's getting to the point that nothing in this world makes sense anymore, and absolutely nothing seems to be off limits when it comes to "unbelievably stupid things that people say or do".

Have you met the internet?

It even says he intended it as a joke, only the political jerk offs are running with it.

No one seemed to really care when the E Coli deaths were traced back to illegals picking vegetables without washing. They still mostly don't.

Go out to El Centro and count the number of outhouses lining the fields being picked. Hardly any.
