I ended up blocking 95% of liberals here the day before the election, because I knew Trump would win and didn't want their spiteful pity larty, so anyone saying something negative got blocked. Over half were foreigners so don't count, and a few were duplicate accounts- because I noticed a few conservatives I used to talk to vanished as I deleted the liberal accounts.

I thought most of non Americans like myself are pro-Trump ! The media didn't get to us yet outside the USA. I didn't expect Trump to win, i thought the brain washing machine (media) sprayed enough poison to swing the vots.
Ps: irrelevant questio, if you block an account of a user that has 2 accounts, how does the other account gets deleted /blocked?

@inaccessible If they have linked accounts, yes.
And many in the American left think it relates to the European Left. Conservatives in the US usually don't think they have anything to do with what is called Conservatives in Europe.
So we here on this site have two different political groups- the Euro Left and the American Left, thinking they are in solidarity because they are told they are and that Europe is just a much more advanced form of the left that works. The American left isn't aware that Europeans stance on Abortion actually lands much, much closer to Conservatives and the US Left. The most socialist countries in europe are very capitalist and even do the draft or recently quit it, and are openly debating bringing it back, and the green parties of europe are addicted to nuclear and fossil fuels on a level the US would find absurd.
But they were always told the Left is equivelent, they only read the good about one another, it's superficial and they think everything is great, just be more like the other. If you mixed the two systems together someone like Trump would emerge. Pretty much what you get.

Thanks for the comprehensive reply, i wanna congratulate you for your new president. I'm a muslim from Egypt and i remember when he banned muslims from going to USA when he got in office 2016, i have a relative who has a wife and kids in there but he was in Egypt for few days and couldn't return to his family. My reaction to that is that the man is doing what he believes to be the best for America and that America comes firs, that decision and others impacted me as non American but made me respect him for his devotion to America, made me envy the American people, but anyways, at the end he sorted out lots of issues in my region and gained our trust.
