    It’s like he’s compelled to be on the moral wrong side of absolutely everything. Reminder: the Confederacy wanted to secede so they could continue owning and abusing black people for profit. What a garbage person Trump is…

      There has to be some kind of psychological term for this. Conservatives are obsessed with triggering the libs, it’s like they live in a perpetual state of wanting to be an asshole.

        First of all, it’s an “ellipsis”, “ellipses” is plural. If you’re going to contribute nothing to a conversation, at the very least don’t be wrong about your only point.

        Secondly, my writing is valid, according to the University of Oxford Style Guide, so you’re already wrong twice:

        Use an ellipsis to indicate a trailing off in speech or thought. We could do this…or maybe that…

        Lastly, it’s an internet discussion, not a doctoral writing dissertation. And it’s not even close to the worst punctuation on this site, so you can fuck alllll the way off…

          It’s an old law of the internet that any complaint about grammar or spelling will contain at least one spelling or grammatical error.
