If memory serves, several commentators were annoyed at Norm for their belief that he was taking potshots at Trump supporters and things came to a head with the “Go back to where you came from” storyline with Val a couple of weeks back.

I get that they were probably annoyed by politics, but maybe don’t act exactly like that dude who shouted racist stuff at Val and vote for someone who does and it never becomes an issue.

So true for so many comments sections.
Ironically, it can also restore one’s faith in humanity, briefly, for those few fleeting moments where it’s all good.
Then someone shows up like an elevator fart and ruins it for everyone.
Prescient, Norm. Wreck-it Ralph learned this lesson a year later in 2018.
