Your first two sentences are just vague accusations with no real substance. Sure, some trump supporters are violent bullies. Some clinton supporters are violent bullies too. I've seen both occur this election.

There's a difference between "advancing your views" and "demanding someone get fired because they disagree with your views". See? If you want to call Thiel a dickhead for his support, feel free, you even have my agreement. But this is the CLASSIC go-to-move of overzealous social justice creeps, to demand banishment of the person for thought-crimes.



"I've seen both occur this election."

That's obviously a false equivalence. On the one hand, the candidate was encouraging his supporters' violence. On the other... well, not that.
