                    Don't forget the massive bot upvoting. Looks like it's the #1 post for all time in this sub now.

                                      They've realised that people have blocked all their political spam subreddits and are now posting in completely unrelated ones to get as much frontpage time as possible.

                                      Because the way the system works is you can only have so many posts from your subreddit on the front of /popular. This is why they keep making new anti-trump subs and why random tangentially related content is being flooded unto other more obscure subs; they are being used as a vehicle to move content to the front of all.

                                      So this is why my blocked list is one Trump sub and fifteen anti-Trump subs...

                                      There's more trump spam now that r/the_donald could ever have hoped for. And it's from their enemies.
                                      [–]jrkd 978 points979 points980 points  (221 children)
                                      From the pro Trump side, it's limited to /r/the_donald and /r/hillaryforprison, so far that I've seen.
                                      There's a new one every day from anti Trump, and it's pretty obvious they're doing it to game reddits algorithms. Yet the admin allow it, because they're on the same side.

                                      It's blatantly obvious the reddit admins want it this way. If you also visit any of the anti-trump subs you'll notice they are virtually dead with no subscribers yet they have a post at 20-30k and the rest of the posts will have maybe 100-200 upvotes.
                                      [–]Konduitx 73 points74 points75 points  (1 child)
                                      Take r/esist for example. Most of the posts barely have double digits, while the top one is like 30k+. Political astroturfing at it's finest.

                                      Admins proved they can change the post count easily. They took several of the top post from TD and set them to 0 permanently. They also edited user comments without permission or notification.

                                        I don't care for Trump, but I really hate these hyperbolic attention seeking assholes for continually creating endless anti-Trump subs.
                                        If this is a deep reverse psychological trick to make me start sympathizing with Trump supporters it might be starting to work.

                                        Right, every time I start to be like man trump sucks I see 50 of the same post on unrelated subreddits and decide I hate the anti trump side more.

                                        Honestly, they're worse! The supporters are just trying to spread awareness of their cause, but the anti-Trump camp is actively fighting those efforts with vitriol and legitimate anger. It's kinda sad how far people can go in hating something/someone, even if they are particularly abrasive.

                                        I am a Trump supporter, but every time I visit /r/all and see it filled with anti-Trump posts and the new anti-Trump sub of the day, it makes me smile. They are so legitimately angry and hateful that it just makes their side look worse and worse.
                                        Even better, the "massive bombshells" they keep dropping end up being duds every time. I doubt most people who aren't hardcore anti-Trump are even listening at this point.
                                        I know it's been said countless times, but: this is a big reason Trump won. And yet the hardcore left still hasn't figured it out.

                                        I'm not pro-trump but I'm not necessarily anti-trumo either. I wouldn't say all the criticisms have been duds, but it makes me so mad to read an article and then head over to the comments and they're nothing but blind hatred for the other side. Calling republics bad people, or collectively stupid, it's like they're rooting for sports teams or movies with good guys and bad guys instead of discussing politics with a lot of grey areas.

                                          Its kind of amazing how inept the core of the left has consistently been for the last year, they are utterly out-of-touch and bewildered by the digital landscape.

                                          There's real criticism, like how he doesn't believe pollution can affect the climate. But they keep going after hyperbolic stuff taken out of context, like this AG Sessions thing. It's frustrating. Just look at how many times NYT edited their article without disclosure to control the narrative.

                                                                  [–]mmmhmmhim 210 points211 points212 points  (44 children)

They are however fine with 8000 anti trump subs popping up and flooding r/all with posts. I literally don't have a hat in the race but it is super annoying have to clear them all out

                                                                  The anti-Trump circlejerk is a fast moving cancer throughout reddit. Regardless of what you think of the guy, the way "Trump sux amirite" slides its way into every sub is ridiculous. I'm down to about 5 subs I can tolerate and I don't even like Trump.

                                                                      I didn't like The_donald spam, but they got quarantined for much less than this site wide anti-Trump spam group that seems to be rampaging about. Even if we ignore the fact that a variety of the defaults have devolved into political bs, there is a growing number of very troll oriented Trump subs and it's getting ridiculous.

Not too long ago it was the /r/SRS family of subs that got to dump all over the site rules, now it's the /r/EnoughTrumpSpam family of subs. It's left to the reader to decide if brigading or naked spamming are worse offenses, but all-in-all it's the same shit just by a different name.

That said, it looks like Stewart has been living in Brooklyn with his American wife since 2012. Someone that has been living here, married a citizen, and seems to be committed to staying in this country deserves citizenship and a voice in the direction of this country if he's going to continue to call it home. Plus, then we can ask, "Why does this American playing a Frenchman have an English accent?"

You have to be an adult to vote, so act like an adult when things don't go your way.

With all the articles that get posted and immediately hit the front page within a short amount of time and a weirdly high upvotes while admitting halfway through they're lies it won't be much longer.
                                                                                              Hell, there are anti-Trump articles from almost all the MSM sites every day with a story talking about how bad he is and how hypocritical he is but halfway through the article, as I said above, they admit that what they're saying is all bullshit. Even the "Russia hacking the election" stuff is an outright lie, there is 0 evidence for it aside from an IP and to think they'd leave and IP is ridiculous. Even US courts won't accept IPs as identification because they understand how IPs can be changed and how easy it is to do so. Not to mention the CIA is mainly the one pushing that narrative and they're know for lying to the American people in order to get us into a war.
                                                                                              Every anti-Trump story I have read or seen on TV since the election have all had huge problems, like lack of evidence or outright lies, and these are the same stories that hit the front page immediately after being posted with thousands of people saying the same thing and refusing to listen to common sense or even be rational about the situation. Then you have 20-30 anti-Trump subs that are obviously gaming the Reddit algorithm to hit the front page, which many subs have gotten into shit over and even been banned for, spreading these same goddamned stories full of lies and manipulation and damned if the admins see anything wrong with it.
                                                                                              I don't want to see Reddit die but the direction it is going right now is spelling it out plainly to anyone paying attention that Reddit is dying and the admins are the ones running the ship full steam into a damned iceberg.

The U.S. government is constitutionally prohibited from issuing titles like that, but Americans are free to hold such titles from foreign governments. If they do, they need congressional approval before they can hold a public office in the U.S. But just becoming a citizen isn't a problem.
                                                                                                I'm not sure what the U.K. government would do to the titles of someone who renounced their U.K. citizenship, though.

Also the point is to fake trump hate, yes there are people that hate trump, but they try to inflate those numbers.

They think people will think trump is bad just because they will be seeing many anti trump posts.

There's a lot of reasons you can be denied and it doesn't take much evidence - I'd be surprised if this wasn't one of them, or could be twisted to fit one.

                                                                                                Just wait for the future where the top comments list are only mods and popular redditors talking about new products and entertainment.
                                                                                                Reddit is selling out their community for money, gifts, and industry connections in the name of profit.
                                                                                                edit - I forgot the fi.

We have seen celebrities weighing in that end up looking like shills: when does one know an actor is speaking from the heart vis a vis setting himself up to be a spokesmodel, for cash?
                                                                                                I thought the British knew what fair play looked like. Trump won, get over it. Why enlist for the wrong side. As an American who works for a living, I think the vociferous defeated Bernie/Clintonites should be good sports and give the President a chance. Rather than obstruction, can we not admit there are things horribly broken in this country, work together, fix something, anything! As such we don't need anymore spokesmodels to further divide the people.
                                                                                                As a cautionary note: Piers Morgan. We have been known to turn on our formerly popular high visibility immigrants who lose perspective. I think "Sir" is pooping in his own nest.

I guess celebrities aren't allowed to have an opinion on the celebrity that just got elected president. Also criticizing the president != not "giving him a chance." The president doesn't get to act like an incompetent amateur free of criticism for as long as he wants because people should "give him a chance." He has his chance and he's blowing it, bigly. "Give him a chance" is just code for "shut up if you don't agree."

Poor people, illegal or legal, taking benefits doesn't cripple the country, in fact it helps the country, hence the reason they exist.

                                                                                                  I'm gonna start here because, after I elicit my view on our so-called "laws" the rest of your statements are moot points. As a descendent of Italian and Irish immigrants, I think our laws, not the immigrants "breaking" them, are criminal and wrong. When my ancestors came to America, becoming a legal immigrant involved four simple steps: buy a ticket to America, land at Ellis Island, give the officials your name, leave Ellis Island with papers and start your new life. To me, this is a just immigration law, but the laws we have right now where it takes years of interviews/checks/etc (something my ancestors never had to do) and tens of thousands of dollars to legally immigrate are unjust and a farce. It should be just as easy for everyone to come to America as it was for my ancestors. I and many others are trying to get these laws changed back to the way they should be, but in the meantime we will support illegal immigrants because, to quote MLK, "...one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."
                                                                                                  [–]Shoryuhadoken 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)

                                                                                                  I think it should be easier to immigrate if you're a good hard working person. We actually agree on this.
                                                                                                  But the law is the law.
                                                                                                  And until it gets changed, we have to respect it.
                                                                                                  And if we break the law then we face the consequences.
                                                                                                  but in the meantime we will support illegal immigrants because, to quote MLK, "...one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."

Like you literally posted nothing, NOTHING about anything scifi. Please for the love of God move the politics over to political subs.

Instead they live insulated in their gated communities and sneer down at the average family, telling them to cope with all of the fallout and refusing to recognize there even is any.

It's not cause they are usually liberal or have opposing views but because it seems like this entire thing is a way for them to get more attention. They feel like we think their opinions actually mean a thing when it comes to politics.

Like claiming people only give to charity to brag, or whatevs. People like or dislike things because of many reasons, and sometimes it's because those things don't share their values. Shrug.

In this case this is called political opposition and the republicans made extensive use of it in the last eight years. I hope the right of immigration does not depend on personal opinions to the current president.

There are unlawful ways of overthrowing a government and the first question ("How do you call a person ...?" "Will they ever let him visit again"?) has at least the possible implication that what Patrick Stewart wants to do is something evil/unlawful.

                                                                                                    As a Trump supporter it's getting pretty tiring seeing this shit everywhere, and I'm not the only one who feels this way, even people who hate Trump are spammed with this shit.
                                                                                                    Might as well rename Reddit to Wedontliketrump.com

They say scrapping the rule could save the U.K. hundreds of millions of pounds. But those opposing the change say it could backfire, because people might chose to leave the country all together."
                                                                                                      "Almost half of Britons pay no income tax while the richest are now shouldering the biggest burden on record, a new analysis has found. The Institute for Fiscal Studies said that the proportion of working-age adults who do not pay income tax has risen from 34.3 per cent to 43.8 per cent, equivalent to 23million people. Over the same period the amount of income tax paid by the richest 1 per cent has risen from 24.4 per cent to 27.5 per cent, meaning that 300,000 people pay more than a quarter of the nation's income tax."
                                                                                                      Of course I could be wrong about this actor. He may want to become a US citizen just so he can attack a 4-8 year president.

Go ahead and try. Its going to push its way into your real life as well as your subreddits. The people have ignored politics for too long and now the flood gates are giving way. Its going to wash your head out of the sand if you dont pull it out.

                                                                                                      He has even, he says, started for the first time thinking seriously about taking up American citizenship. It's partly the recent marriage to Ozell and how embraced he feels by her family. And it's partly a sense of political frustration at not having a vote in America. "It's long overdue," he says. "There's only so much I can do, only so much I can comment on."
                                                                                                      I gotta say I was pretty oblivious to the fact he still lived in the UK until recently. He's been staring in american shows and films since the late 80s, I just assumed he was living here and probably had dual citizenship a while ago.

It's just really surprising. Star Trek is all about embracing diversity and living in a futuristic socialist utopia and using reason, logic, and science to guide one's judgment.

Its as if Star Trek is not in any way shape or form political. Its like they threw that out of the window. Yeah disregard the rengade who brought diversity and inspiration to this genre in terms of film. Its ridiculous and insulting.

To seek to gain citizenship to a country whose election results you hope to undermine is just fucked. Respect our country and its officials or get the fuck out. Were the tables turned and this was Obama would you feel the same way? He should seek citizenship in the spirit of unity, not division. He should seek to build up our nation, not tear down what the people have chosen.

In order to be a modern day actor, your success lies in how much you can sell the project you worked on, not the quality of your performance. Which is why celebrities often start controversy or jump on whatever trendy topic of the day is getting attention.

It's all about making money, and the larger your appeal is to varying social groups are, the more you're gonna make.

                                                                                                        The fall of the US manufacturing industry is a much older phenomenon and decades in the making; attributing that to Obama is just wrong.

                                                                                                        Obama accelerated the trend dramatically by his disaster its push towards globalization and international trade agreements that sold out the American worker. Why do you think Trump won????

So he did not came "for the sole purpose of ousting the president". But as your post suggests you have some problems with accepting criticism against your president from people without the right citizenship even when they live in US for years. So it is no wonder that Patrick Stewart wants to become citizen of the United States.

And it is not the sole purpose as he is living since years in the USA, is married to an american wife, lived somehow the american dream, is part of the american pop culture. So although he does not mention it directly, it is very clear that he is connected to the american people. So Trump is the specific reason why he is applying now for citizenship but it is not the sole purpose. It is something like the trigger for the decision.

It is curious though who is the One, Patrick or Donald? Fishbourne is Morpheus we all know that and I bet that Oprah will turn out to be the Oracle. And for sure, definitely Bill Gates is the architect and you can only access him from the Freedom tower. Case closed. Scifi. Oscar winning stuff.

I only wish anyone from the sane world could run for president. But for good reasons they cannot. However, the reason we allow immigrants at all is because our forefathers had foresight that our current "leaders" lack. I'm sure I'm only one of millions who would love to have you involve yourself in our mess to help. But since you've posted it here, it will likely be blocked.

I honestly don't know if that's a thing that would bar you from becoming a citizen

He isn't calling for the overthrow of congress by blood.
                                                                                                              [–]triception 1 point2 points3 points  (10 children)

Seems I wouldn't be too keen on letting someone become able to oppose my position. But again, I've never immigrated anywhere so I've never looked into what would and would not count against me if I was trying

He can either roll over and accept there is a chance those things will be harmed as he clearly perceives. Or he can attempt to fight for those things by using the legal channels provided to him. I am missing what people are against...

I'm not against anything, I'm just saying that maybe, since there is no obligation to grant him citizenship, that saying something like that might hinder his chance at receiving it.

What has the big bad Trump done to him in the 1 month of office he has taken? Stop it, its just a bunch of drama queens screaming and crying because someone that wasn't a democrat won.

This one wants to become a citizen to fight and oppose our government? How would it be taken if Brad Pitt wants to go over to Germany to become a citizen to fight the EU government?

In fact Trump is actually doing what he promised.

Is he right? I dunno, but it's certainly not your or my position to tell him he is wrong to be vocal in his politics.

He was the Perot of this time. His outsideness was that he, like Perot, is independently wealthy. People think that insulates him from insider political influences.
                                                                                                              Of course I, as an ancap, know that you can not control leviathan. Even if Trump has 8 years and stays an outsider(doubtful) leviathan will still prevail and remote political 'leaders' in distant capitals will still not represent the best needs of the people.
                                                                                                              [–]dezmd 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)

And THAT is why it's ok to call Trump supporters idiots, they really believe their own propaganda and bullshit shooting from the hip.

I know there were a lot who didnt support him but thry sure didnt do enough to make sure Trump didnt get in. His policies might be something that some americans can justify but Trump is a disgusting human. That level of immaturity and lack of emotional intelligence should disqualify a person from leading a nation.

Go ahead and say that! Say that and fry your brains! Say that and dont value what science fiction is as a genre, go ahead and disrespect all of the writing, all of the thought put into it! Ignorance is truly bliss. P.s. scifi isnt a genre defined by space laser and explosions if that what you thought it was.
