What happened to Joe Republic?

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

His profile says he was last active here a couple weeks ago, but he hasn't posted since before election night.  Did he just get sick of everything after the Annoying Orange started his reign?

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Isn't he on AAD?

[Mr. Morden]

Xahar and px also haven't posted since election day.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Xahar and px also haven't posted since election day.

I hope Xahar will be back eventually. As of px, good riddance to a smug moron.

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Isn't he on AAD?

No, he has an account, but rarely posts.

Then he's got a real life. He should be our example.

[muon2]

I pm'ed him three weeks ago and got no response.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Joe does his own thing, his way.  I miss him being around as well.  As long as he's well, it's all good.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Joe started to dislike the forum and its cuture pretty vehemently a while back. Had you not noticed?

That's the impression I'd gotten from Joe for a long time, honestly.

[Mr. Morden]

I do wonder if the list of posters who disappeared after election day would be totally different if Clinton had won instead of Trump.  E.g., I'm assuming that px would have stayed, while jfern would not have returned.

Icespear certainly would've stayed.

Polnut would have stayed had things turned out differently. But you can hardly blame him for leaving; it's almost insufferable now. Mainstream politics has embraced factlessness, so the senseless moron brigade is out in force, feeling redeemed, legitimized, and proud. The disgusting and deliberate political incorrectness () is just the rotten icing on the cake.

Tbh I've expected it to be much worse after the election.

[Phony Moderate]

There are certainly worse places to be than here for those of us who are not Trump fans.

And, on the other sides, smug elitist pricks like yourself who don't even pretend to give a crap about anyone outside the Bubble.

[Crumpets]

Turns out he himself was photoshop pedal, and was never real to begin with.

[Virginiá]

I don't really blame him. This election has brought out some of the worst in society with the election of someone so mindbogglingly awful that it hurts my head just trying to comprehend how people could be ok would even a fraction of what Trump is. I tried to tune out too, but I can't force myself to stop being obsessed with politics. At least not in any long-lasting, meaningful way.

It's much uglier on the ground, I assure you. In my head I agree with Antonio, but I can't deny that my heart is with Hagrid. This place is a refuge. Some of the Trump enthusiasts here are irritating and barely tolerable, but even they are uncharacteristic, and on the whole so much better, than the larger group of Americans whom they represent.

At least Seriously? didn't stick around. I expected him to become the most prolific poster if Trump won. Also, who was it that said they'd leave if Trump got anything less than 22% of the black vote?

I think so *shrug*

I really wish we could avoid Trump's election and still get rid off trolls like him.

Agreed, although I'd argue there are more trolls now than before the election.

     The internet has a way of bringing out the worst in people. I imagine that most of the irritating sorts on the forum (of both pro-Trump and anti-Trump persuasions) are more congenial people in real life.
