[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After seeing more about the alt-right and 4chan influencing online polls for Trump after the debate, I'm really interested to know how they are affecting the conversation here on DCUM.

My guess is that there are quite a few people trolling here. 4chan users are tech savvy enough to spoof IP addresses so it's not as obvious to Jeff that the same 400-lb dudes in basements are sh*tposting over and over, but I think it's pretty likely given the overwhelmingly Democratic demographics of the DC area and surroundings.

Either that, or the Trump posters are so much more active here because they don't have jobs like the Clinton supporters do. [/quote]

Agree. The conversations on here do not reflect local politics at all, and frankly, I don't think they even represent the country as a whole. I think there's a lot of Trumpster trolling, especially since many of the conversations are so repetitive and focus on minor sh^t, and not on, you know, [b]diplomacy, policy, and economic outcomes.[/quote][/b]

And you seriously believe the average American cares about this?[/quote]

i hope so.

diplomacy: how we get along with other countries in the world, what we do about nuclear powers out there, how we relate to the arab world and israel
policy: do women get equal pay to men? what benefits do veterans get?
economic outcomes: how can we get better jobs that make more money?[/quote]
