I can't even understand people sometimes
To some degree I want to say "well I guess that's what happens when a group of people were oppressed and abused for so long" but then the other part of me is like "honestly what the fuck is wrong with you, you don't paint a good picture for yourself or your cause when you do shit like this there is no excuse not even a history of discrimination"
It's even worse when the person(s) being supported don't condone or are disgusted with the activities of their following/fanbase. How can you say you stand for something and then do the exact opposite of what you claim to believe uggh
Even with that incident, though, Trump supporters haven't been any better. Trump himself has supported and encouraged violence at his rallies. Even if the peaceful protesters did just that, peacefully protest, he has expressed on numerous occasions that he's fine with his following assulting these protesters. Some of the people protesting for certain causes that show up at Trump rallies have also shown up at Sanders rallies without any physical altercations ensuing.
The best example thus far are the BLM protestors, whom were later revealed not to be anything but a handful of people out to make BLM protestors look bad (which I'm not sure I believe but w/e), that stopped Bernie's speech to loudly complain to a rally of people who were only there to listen to Bernie speak. At a Trump rally, that likely would not have ended without someone being physically assulted.
