This does seem a bit harsh… but to be fair, Obama was blamed for lot of things he had no hand in. (Thanks OBAMA!) And since Donald Trump started running for president, hate crimes seem to be on the rise. Since the election, it would seem that the numbers are increasing at an even faster rate. It is indeed a case of cause vs correlation. But you cannot deny that: 1. It is now Trump's America, and 2. People are finding more need to defend themselves from physical confrontations. We'll see how the article reads.

Great option for fighting back against trump supporters trying to dismantle legitimate rallies against him through the whole world.

Fire your social media 'experts' This is just embarrassing. I am not Trump supporter at all, but this is so out of touch…

Not a bad idea at all, if you have been awake these last 6 months.

Alvin Tossler says:

fight back? what an elegant solution

Dexter Peters says:

This is great, looking forward reading about it in the magazine

Komkrit Onsrithong says:

devoid of substance

Leroy Jenkins says:

I love the New Yorker. I grew up on it. Saying im politically liberal and progressive would be putting it lightly.

This title and this video are fucking awful.
