Since when has the left ever given a shit about facts?
It's an almost hilarious level of hipocrisy when the left, which has used emotional manipulation and mob rule for decades in their rise to power, now demeans others for using the same tactics.
It isn't that right wing politicians don't use facts, no politician uses facts. Facts undermine narratives. Facts destroy the illusion. Facts don't matter when you're trying to sway the populace, black lives matter and the recent surge in social justice are evidence of this.

the left is already conceding that trump is winning?

Does your friend realize that basically describes the Bernie campaign?
>>79934868
Literally anyone from any political campaign can make this assertion.
>HURR DURR EVERYONE ELSE WITH A DIFFERENT OPINION FROM MINE ARE LYING
>GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT
They're retarded. Leave had facts on their side and remain side was lying through their teeth.

So is that implying that both Trump and Brexit are bad things?

Yep. The populist right reaction happening in the UK and US now is completely driven by muh feelz and not by disinterested empirical analysis of the political situation.
Alt-right is basically tumblr for autistic male permavirgins who just want something to be different so their butts hurt a little bit less. The most prominent argument in almost every /pol/ thread is "this makes me rage so much." It's basically a fact-free zone, which is perfect to support a fact-challenged candidate like Trump.

>the left suddenly cares about facts when the prented a mutilated cock magically makes you a woman, and being a black somalli born in ireland makes you "irish"
ALL ELECTIONS ARE RUN ON EMOTIONS
Ethos, pathos, logos.

Of course it is. Facts are rarely the deciding factor. Of course now they're pissing and moaning because they think they have facts on their side (though it's basically a rehash of the retarded "voting against their own interests" argument - the facts support their case only if you also share their values).

maybe so. But this has been the case most of my life. Only when the libshits start losing do they care.

Just look at the arguments of the left on why more ""refugees"" should be let in. They're not talking economics or about employment figures, it is all about muh feelings, muh dead baby on the beach that really makes me think and muh we can't leave them to their own devices.
