The political debate that has been happening here is no more on topic for the image than whether Twilight should be an Alicorn or not “because she’s in the image, too” - just because something has a political element doesn’t make it open for any kind of sociopolitical debate.

so, the image has nothing to do with the 2016 election in the usa? because that’s the only distinctive part of this picture. I guess we could comment on the rest of it, even though we already did on identical screencaps elsewhere.
 
my theory is pinkie never left the rock farm, and it ended up prospering so much, it grew to cover all of equestria.

no thanks, I’d rather just shut my big mouth about politics and not sit there trying to help people who are beyond help. but it’s good you pointed it out, or I might not have shut up.

there are very few rich dudes in the world, fewer and richer every day, and many of them invest in anonymizing corporations that fund both the democratic and the republican parties. maybe trump’s investors didn’t get caught but they’re there. in particular, it looks like your cool story about ukraine is oppressed people has got the russians investing in trump george soros vs. vladimir putin?
 
there were a bunch of people I knew last week who were quoting several news sources saying she conceded the election. I guess the news was lying again.
 
I’m not a big fan of the losing party voluntarily conceding. if they lost, it’s not necessary. they spin it like they’re doing it for hugs and friendship because they are such good sports and the country is totally not at civil war, but the only reason I can see to concede is if you’ve got a contested vote, and you want to rig the election. the best thing to do is just say gg fgts, go off and get a beer or something.
 
hillary going nuts just highlights how instrumental she was in tricking people to vote for trump who didn’t want him.
 
I don’t pay much attention to wikileaks… I don’t really respect them, b/c they’ve held leaks hostage as blackmail before. I’d have to learn more; I don’t trust that “rich dude X was planning to illuminarti confirmed” story just because someone framed it as a leak.

Who exactly was Trump funded by? Certainly not George Soros. In case you weren’t paying attention to WikiLeaks after the election, it was revealed that Soros was planning to turn the US into a puppet state under his control (much like he’s already done with Ukraine), and key in that was getting Hillary elected this year.
 
Also, conceding when it becomes clear that it’s mathematically impossible for you to win is pretty standard. Although she didn’t give a concession speech because she was drunk and yelling and screaming.

okay, let me spell this out a bit more clearly. clinton conceded before the counting was finished, so even with a majority vote in her favor, trump would have won. she made people think she was a subhuman sludge creature, which made many people change their vote for trump, even though they didn’t like him. her entire campaign was to get trump elected, by taking the fall herself, like a rodeo clown. clinton and trump were both working together, funded by the same people, with the same agenda. there is no battle, only a single group pretending to be two rival groups, to trick you into voting for someone you don’t like.
 
now who exactly am I schilling for, again?

Hey’ he’s better than eating glowing radioactive crops and poo out your entrails 10 years later because muh first women president.
 
I’m still not convinced she’s not a subhuman sludge creature spawned from a cursed drain somewhere though.

The Doomsday clock for the last year has been at three minutes to midnight. The last time it was that close was in 1984. It’s only been closer one time in its history.
 
And Hillary Clinton was promising war with Russia.
 
But yeah, we’re all so doomed now that Trump is president.
Background Pony #3A38
Okay, this actually did get a laugh out of me, but in all seriousness, let’s not forget that Hillary did want a No-Fly Zone in Syria, which is probably not the best idea…

You don’t know that. Germany rising up to take revenge was very likely, but not inevitable. Changing any factor in the interwar period could have discredited Nazism or likeminded ideologies. The Spartacists taking over, a more extended prison sentence for Adolf, the Nazi party’s shortage of funding, von Papen not making a deal with the devil, France stomping down the reoccupation of the Rhineland, Chamberlain gambling that the Allies could win if they stood by Chezchoslovakia. All cases of incompetent, corrupt or wavering leaders not taking a stand.

Don’t be too sure. Trump helped a lot of Republicans get back in the saddle who haven’t learned from past experiences. Some of them top picks for Trump’s cabinet. To just take one example would be Trump ripping up the deal made with Iran. With one penstroke that would destroy America’s credibility and leaves two options: Iran once more pursues a nuclear (weapons) program, or the US invades Iran to prevent that. The former choice is certainly making WW3 a more realistic possibility, and in the latter case you cannot even begin to predict how far reaching the consequences would be. The fallout of the last war in the middle east has not even cleared yet, war with Iran would be a nightmare compared to Iraq.
