So I was checking my yahoo email (yeah yeah, I know, but I have others, I swear) and I noticed a news story at the bottom called "How MSNBC is surviving after Olbermann", so I decided to check it out cuz I like both of those things. Been a fan of Keiths for a while. I'm also a big fan of Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews, so I'm a fan of the station as well.
After reading through it, I thought "Well that was interesting" and was scrolling down through and noticed one of the comments:

Msnbc.. Most Stupid No Brain Commentators.
I was a little annoyed. I hate it when people go out of their way and SEEK OUT stuff to hate. Then there was another one:

Wow, MSNBC & CNN combined are still way under FOX!!! I wonder why you don't hear conservatives crying like babies about MSBNBC being lefyist like the way the libs cry about FOX? Oh wait, I know!
...and another and a nother...

I am impressed that MSNBC has any viewers at all. I had no idea that there are that many mentally challenged people in the US!
This isn't just trolling. This is active hate spewing and its sickening. Now, I'm not stupid, I know that if I were to go to a right-winged web page (although I had no idea yahoo was so right-friendly) and read the comments, there would probably be tons of lefties talking trash. It would be the same thing as this but from the other direction (its 'reverse-hatred', herp-a-derp), and ya know, THAT upsets me too.
I don't understand the NEED that most internet trolls feel to go HUNTING for something to spew garbage all over? Like the inevitable "fake" comment on ANY picture on the internet, this kind of negativity is just ridiculous and it's making the internet a much less fun place to be. Its hard to enjoy a video on YouTube of someone who actually is talented when all the comments all scream negative things. It's all the same really. There is always the "I can do better" comment followed by the "where is the video of YOU doing this". It's all the same. Every website, every piece of content, every time.
My girlfriend doesn't even pay attention to the comments online because she's sick of it too and expects nothing less but ignorance, and she's right, as usual.
But this is less about trolls and more about politics.

MSNBC is strictly anti-American.
Really? We're still doing this? Right wingers are still claiming anything leftist to be Un-American? REALLY!? When "Dubya" was in office, many many people said many many things about him: stupid, ignorant, racist, war-monger, embarassing, dim witted, redneck, bible thumper: and yes, these things are true, but one thing he was NEVER called was "Un-American". I voted for Bush... twice (don't hate me) Yet, every time Obama says or does anything, he's a SOCIALIST. He's UN-AMERICAN. He's trying to DESTROY AMERICA. He's the BLACK HITLER. He's.... ah.... there's the problem: he's black. I'm not the first to say this. This has been said over and over and over again, but ya know, SOMETIMES when everyone says something, SOMETIMES its true, unlike that whole Jesus/god thing, but thats another topic for another day.
My point being: Fuck you Republicans. Fuck you in your stupid, irrational, hate-filled, ignorant, childish, self-centered, irresponsible asses. Your supposed to be the party of do-ers and thinkers, not the part of people who plug their ears saying lalalalalalala whenever someone other than you has something to say. Get your shit together, you're not helping anyone, especially yourselves.
