I'd like to think they're all just Russian trolls but increasingly, I think some people are just selfish or dumb.

I'll take you at your word, which is trying, but even if true I prefaced my statement with original. This means you're part of the plan, and you would have to be. Though you may not identify as accelerationist your existence is spurred on and enunicated by a foreign effort to defeat America by turning it on itself.
Edit: My bad
- Again, I'm not an accelerationist. I'm a "Stop doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result"-ist.
  And don't tell me you'll take me at my word and then immediately do the opposite. It makes me suspect that you are the thing you accuse me of being.
  
  You call yourself what ever you like. I'll refer to you as, useful idiot.
  Edit: If I were a foreign actor I'm either very incompetent or am a genius for egging on you doubling down.
  
  I see you have taken the mask off entirely.
  If you were genuinely invested in the election, you'd be desperately trying to find common ground in the hopes of convincing me to vote for your preferred candidate.
  Instead, you're being both dismissive and disrespectful without even putting in the effort to ensure that the insult hits home, exactly the sort of behavior one would expect from a low-effort troll.
  Lucky for you, I'm autistic enough to enjoy feeding the trolls~.
  
  No mask? What mask? I straight up can't argue against this shit anymore. You want to hump dust go, hump dust.
  
  Are you OK?
  
  You don't care get out of here with your concern troll bullshit.
  
  I'm genuinely asking, you seem like there's some kind of problem..
  
  Brah
  
  What's wrong?
  
  We are not friends. I think you're profoundly in the wrong. Go concern troll somewhere else.
  
  The only way you can look at the world right now and say "we're doing the same thing over and over" is if you choose to ignore unfathomable swaths of nuance in some reductionist attempt to protect your own sense of self-righteousness.
  
  I don't really disagree with this, and in fact it sounds optimistic to me, provided you're asserting that a new party will be born from the broken duopoly that your prediction will cause. Which you may not be. I'm not trying to put words in your mouth.
  Edit: On second thought, I do somewhat disagree, as watching the democratic party flirt with and ultimately push back against a Candidate Sanders in 2016 definitely seems like a deviation from the plot-line you've presented. I can envision a future in which the Dem party is captured by further left factions as young people grow up and become more and more engaged with electoralism.
  
  Sounds like you've got it all figured out.
  Good luck out there, and keep an eye out for that hindsight bias, it'll creep up on ya'.
  
  Alright. Given that you've said when Trump loses, rather than if, I'd love to get some insight into why it is you predict that he's going to lose.
  
  :(
