There's tds and there's trumpfs kool-aid. One can easily distinguish by the regurgitated rhetoric by magas and whataboutisms

Lots of generalizations WD, but no specifics or substance. Kind of like a daily horoscope.

I think The View or Morning Joe is getting ready to start.

Not much substance to this argument to begin with. We can use this logic in any number of ways for the left and right and it comes down to, dismissing other people's opinions because we don't like them and want to have a dick measuring contest on the internet backed up by pretending our own irrationality is rational.
There’s a difference between generalizations and giving specific examples of substance. The latter leads to a more meaningful discussion.

Get out the measuring tape.

Seems like we have some TDSS afoot
All jokes aside I suspect those with TDS will have lesser mental health over the next 4 years.

Yep. They all the same shit, using all the same talking points, at the same time. Cult behavior. Suddenly, they're all experts in the same field, and their field expertise changes to meet each new outrage.

The latest example is how they're all experts in wildfire prevention now. Buncha regular Smokey Bears out there. Lol. Lemmimgs.

That's obvious from the other thread. The topic of this thread is - why do you suffer from TDS?

Calling trump and his voters out on their bullshit isn't tDS. It's the truth. And, as WD pointed out, it's rather easily distinguishable.

Trump trolls. You react like Pavlov's dog.

Great! So you and tommy are finally ready to stop "pretending (your) own irrationality is rational", as you put it?

Glad to hear that. You're on the road to recovery.

No, it's you're approaching self-awareness with the Pavlov's dog reference.

You'll see the TDSS for what it really is if you get down 2 more layers. This is exciting.

You seem to believe you’ve got the wisdom of Job on a variety of topics, yet are, at best, hesitant to impart such wisdom on mere mortals. It’s kinda weird and creepy, with a splash of narcissism.
