Wil Wheaton made a post on his Facebook page, the full text of which is "Today is a good day to remind anyone reading this that if you support Trump, you are a garbage human and you aren't welcome here."
I'll copy/paste my share of it below:
Looks like I'm not the only one fed up with Trumpanzee horseshit today. This is an excellent opportunity to update my block list via all the whingey, cringey comments under Mr. Wheaton's post there.
And the comments are actually worth it, if only just for Mr. Wheaton's succinct replies to said whingey, cringey comments.

And all the people responding with crap like "I didn't vote for/don't support Trump, but..."
Nope, stop right there. If you are even merely indifferent to Trump at this point, then that is, at least to me, almost no different than supporting him. Trump is far too evil and dangerous a person for anyone to have the luxury of merely not caring about him and what he does (or about his followers and what they do, which is almost as bad). Anything less than full blown denunciation is implicit support, in my eyes. I mean, yes, sure, you are not required to shout it to the heavens every other day, like I often do, but when someone else posts something along the lines of "Fuck Trump," a really good thing for you to NOT do is roll up in the comments blathering about "taking the high road" or prattling about how "hate is bad no matter what" or gibbering about "intolerance" (especially in the form of "so much for the tolerant left," because that banal douchebaggery has my wholehearted urging to ingest anal excretions and expire) or whatever other impotent platitudes you may want to spew.
As far as I am concerned, at this point in history, telling Trumpanzees to go fuck themselves pretty much is taking the high road. Why should anyone tolerate dumbshit asininity such as support for the obvious, literal, true life villain that is Donald Trump? The Paradox of Tolerance and all that. If you want to be tolerant, you have to be intolerant of intolerance (at least on your own platforms, e.g. Wil Wheaton telling Trump supporters to get the fuck off of his Facebook page).
To go off on a slight tangent, the only instances where I will support statements that begins with "I don't support Trump, but..." is if that statement is actually NOT in tacit support of Trump but is, instead, simply condemning the spread of (unnecessary) fake news about Trump. As I've said many times before, Trump says and does more than enough legitimately idiotic horseshit all on his own that it is not required to manufacture crap about him, especially since this only feeds into his otherwise inane Lügenpresse narrative. Trump tells plenty of lies as it is, big and small, so there's no need to lie about him. His own shitty words and shitty actions more than speak for themselves already.
