Scott Adams endorses Hillary so that her supporters won't assassinate him

What is this I don’t even…

"…And I would be a top-ten assassination target in that scenario because once you define Trump as Hitler, you also give citizens moral permission to kill him. And obviously it would be okay to kill anyone who actively supports a genocidal dictator, including anyone who wrote about his persuasion skills in positive terms. (I’m called an “apologist” on Twitter, or sometimes just Joseph Goebbels). "

Given his other opinions, I’m not so sure. Even if meant to be tongue-in-cheek, it’s tongue-in-cheek that leans on the same talking points that are currently poisoning our national dialogue.

For instance, this 'graph:

"This past week we saw Clinton pair the idea of President Trump with nuclear disaster, racism, Hitler, the Holocaust, and whatever else makes you tremble in fear. "

The right has consistently tried to turn the left’s arguments against them – if you want equal rights for LGBTQ, you are oppressing religious freedom, if you say that Trump is a racist, you are being politically correct.

Trump supporters don’t have any bad feelings about patriotic Americans such as myself, so I’ll be safe from that crowd.

Remind me: whose supporters have actually been committing violence on the campaign trail?

But Clinton supporters have convinced me – and here I am being 100% serious – that my safety is at risk if I am seen as supportive of Trump.

Of all of the offensive things that he’s said, he thinks a few minor positive comments about Trump will push people over the edge to murder?

That’s decidedly untrue!

A douche bag has a possibility of making intimate contact with a woman.

Does his opinion actually matter? I am not a twitter, so I wouldn’t know how cloutful he is, but does anybody here remember Dilbert? Kind of like Garfield with a tie?

Scott Adams lost his mind a long, long time ago. Being famous for a comic strip about workplace bureaucracy based largely on reader submissions, he decided he was brilliant, which was unfortunate.

I’m not sure, but this might be bordering on some deep paranoia… or a massively overinflated ego. I’m not sure which.

No, no. Scott Adams said Scott Adams was a certified genius. He didn’t specify who certified him, or what credentials you need to be certified, but according to Scott Adams, he’s a certified genius. The rest of us are just not smart enough to understand how anyone other than a certified genius could produce the daily masterwork of Dilbert while simultaneously managing the Adams empire and posting on his blog about men’s rights, his intellect, and how the world is just not smart enough to understand how anyone other than a certified genius could accomplish these monumental achievements of superhuman intellect.

p.s. Ladies, Scott Adams is single! Certified genius ladies only, please.

There’s my problem. I could probably get a get a genius certification, if I knew where.

After all, people keep telling me I’m certifiable.

Maybe he’s playing the long game and at some point in the future it will all come together in some amazing work of heretofore unperceived genius?

Yes! Scott Adams, super genius!

Hence clubs, sparkley top hats, and GHB.

Sadly, justice doesn’t happen by itself.
