What is the end goal of your revolution? I won't suggest Muslim death camps this time - it's an open floor. What do you want and how are Trump, Farage, Le Pen etc going to deliver it?

It wasn't just the old voting for Trump. A lot of young people did too, because the internet acted as a mobilising post for a lot of alienated, cultureless, profoundly bored alt-right types
You forgot, Dumb, racist and angry mate, now that it's clear you can read the minds of 60 odd million Americans, can you tell me the lottery numbers for tonight?

getting those three living together would make for a great sitcom. add a baby and you got yourself a hit.
I have skipped seventy odd pages of this, but the world has shifted a lot. The power of the internet, the placing of traditional evidence based 'truth' below individual desire, the craving for the instant, the disconnect between the old establishment and the new forces of reaction from the right and the left, the X-factor desire for stuff merely because you want it and you're worth it, the change in the world of work, the globalisation of nearly everything has led to a world almost unrecognisable to the post war world in which I grew up. For me the contemplation of democracy and individual sentience is worth considering. If we accept everybody has a vote, then one would hope those voting would pause to consider the seriousness of what they do because of the impact it has. As with everything the answer lies somewhere within education, which needs to be explored whilst we still have an education system that isn't purely utilitarian.
Well isn't this just so f*cking hilarious. Looks like some of you should have studied the evidence about the Clinton Foundation that I posted earlier (and was subsequently proved to be true by Wikileaks), instead you continued to believe the crooked, biased leftist media, the crooked, biased Polls and your Twitter feeds, where the likes of Leuth seems to get all his information lol. The game is now up for you Marxists and leftists. You have infected academia, the media and the Hollywood set. Your social engineering ideals have brought the Western World and western culture to the edge of destruction. Your brand of PC, Identity politics has caused terrible devision, animosity, and left huge numbers of people afraid to even open their mouths for fear of being labelled "racist, xenophobic, homophobic" etc, simply because they want secure borders, safety for their families, jobs, or even because they simply believe in the traditional definition of marriage. Well, the silent majority has now spoken. First with Brexit, now Trump, and next watch for France and Germany to go exactly the same way. Seriously though, how out of is the media these day's? How out of touch is CL?Where are all the conservatives? (Too frightened to speak out probably for fear of being labelled a Jimmy Savile sympathiser or a bigot, as I have been on this thread!) The mainstream media and Charlton Life are certainly not representative of the majority are they ( Trump is winning the popular vote as well BTW). 65 pages here of overwhelmingly anti Trump sentiment, and yet the majority of Americans voted for him, very strange! Suck it up all you Lefties, this is where the kick back begins, you got so far but ultimately you failed, just as socialism always fails, but not before it has caused immeasurable damage. Mwahahhahaaahaah!
I like you.
Imagine the knicker twisting that will go on, on here if Le Pen gets in over in France hahaha.
The revolution has started people, change is a coming
it's alarming how in vogue contrarianism is these days
Events of the past 5 months have confirmed what I have long thought, and that is that many people in Politics and the Media, and almost every person with left wing sympathies are totally out of touch with with the feelings of the common working class person.
America just like Britain have voted with their heart. Clearly the policies of Nigel Farage and Donald Trump appealed to an awful lot of working class people who all feel badly let down by the mainstream politicians.
Charlton Life is dominated by these same people that think they know best and dismiss anyone who dares to question their opinions. I predicted before Brexit that Essex man would vote on mass to Leave and was proved right. I also said on this site last week that if I was American I would have voted Trump.
For both comments and I was ridiculed by some of left wing "luvvies" on this site who once again have been proved wrong.
I will make a third prediction and that is that over the next couple of years the working class people of Germany, France, Holland will all want to follow Britain and get out of the EU.
This is just the start!
2016 Presidential vote split Income under $30,000 Clinton 53%, Trump 41% Income $30,000 - $49,999 Clinton 51%, Trump 42%
Income $250,000 or more Clinton 46%, Trump 48%
Please tell us all again how Trump's victory was all about the "feelings of the common working class person".
Crikey someone did well to go round the whole country asking all those people.

We don't have Marxists in this country. Well we do. Hi, I'm Alex. There's maybe another handful of us.
as someone said on a Radio5 phone-in just now (and was howled down by the presenters for his comment) .. 'the only thing lacking this morning on the BBC was funereal music' .. good to listen to an unbiased panel discussing the issue .. Ummunah, Farron and Nicky Morgan, not a Trump advocate to be heard
AMERICANS have decided who runs THEIR country, and we in Britain have to deal with Trump just as we would have had to deal with The Family CLINTON .. cliché time ... get over it
Still waiting for what the revolution entails. Money where your mouth is, GJ
Hi princess, was busy.
The revolution where the working class people with right leaning views are listened to and not shouted down as racist, bigoted, uneducated etc by people like you. Where we're taken seriously and not just brushed a side and stereotyped because our view is different to yours. The issues we face and struggle with everyday might finally be addressed and understood in which a neutral solution, that works for both sides might just be able to be found.
Is that okay for you strange left wing internet man

I find all of this a bit vague and not spelt out. Which view, which issues? I won't shout you down. Even though those with right-leaning views have been plenty pandered to of late.
The idea that Trump's election represents a revolution and triumph for the working class is utterly bonkers. Yes, he has successfully tapped into their anger and disenfranchisement but this is a man who is not remotely interested in anyone but himself, almost a textbook definition of a sociopath.
His victory should obviously be seen as a rejection of the establishment but the idea that this is a triumph for the working class is insane.

You work in an industry that's booming, you've never been richer. Yet you want revolution. Makes sense.
I'll have my moments. But it won't be when people on message board declare this as revenge on the American Marxists and Socialists. My response to that is like when a panda hears there's another panda "what, there's more of us?!!?!"
I worry about healthcare. I worry that we're going to see a rise in hate crimes. I worry about (but am not surprised about) the influence of Breitbart and the like, and Steve Bannon, on this country. I worry about who he will (try, at least) to put on the Supreme Court. But I also don't know how a Trump presidency governs. If it governs. But he will get to Washington and find out what ever other outsider has: you can't change the system just by being President. He's our fourth "outsider" President in a row and the terms of 2 out of the last 3 have ended in "mandates against them."
I'm probably more worried about Congress where, despite the need for change, we are going to see most incumbents returning.

We don't even have socialists.
The rest of what you've said is very McCarthyist.
