You mention that you didn ' t support Trump , and yet you have at least 176 upvotes on your comment . It really goes to show that we here are much more tolerant than the others . We are a community of good people . <| sep |> They are picking on a douche for being short , not for being a douche . Several make out like he ' s a douche because he ' s short . runitedkingdom is generally quite lefty liberal , and if someone is being bigotedracistsexist like say if in this instance the attacker was black , and someone was insinuating it was his colour that made him violent it gets called out and downvoted heavily , but in this instance it ' s celebrated and upvoted . right now 4 out of 6 of the top voted top level replies are height related . On a story that has height as an incidental detail .
