So the reason why they're so against women, gay, drag, trans was that they want to be the only drama queens around?

[–] entwine413@lemm.ee 49 points 3 weeks ago

You hit the nail on the head.

Projection is a requirement to be part of the GOP

They reached the most sensible, logical conclusion: deport musk and impeach trump.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 48 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Fuck it. Impeach Elon, and deport trump as well, while we're at it. Deport them both to Afghanistan, since that wouldn't be cruel or anything, right? Just sending people wherever you feel like it.

Didn't one of Trump's grand or great grandparent come here illegally? Sounds like he needs to visit El Salvador

[–] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 22 points 3 weeks ago

His wife would be illegal by current ICE standards so her and her anchor baby Barron should be deported or sent to El Salvador.

“Imagine how much worse it would have been if it was women?”

(edit:)
— voters who choose GOP

cheers, I abhor the '/s' tag, but it would have clicked here.

[–] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Used to be that satire could be understood or determined from the context but not now. Satire is policy for some people. Always need to use /s to show that you are sane and rational.

Nominate a woman that people actually want to be president and then maybe we can talk.

AOC, for example, is filling football stadiums in red states.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh ya know... It's not her turn. There's like 6 people you've never heard of ahead of her.

And make sure they're not flagrantly carrying water for a genocidal ethnostate during the run up to the election. Preferably they will be sane and won't support that kind of thing at all. But this is America, we're currently being led by a dementia addled gameshow host. Sanity is sadly not a prerequisite for the job.

Right. And to be clear, you can have insincere boring male candidates just the same. Look at old Biden (VP Biden is somewhat different). Or look at Tim Kaine. No authenticity. No charisma. No backbone.

My car has no charisma but its got years of character.

[–] PetteriSkaffari@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I drive a Nissan Charisma, which has no personality whatsoever.

To be fair, AoC wasn't eligible yet until last October.

Anger isn't an emotion - it's alpha male psychology, or something? Honestly I lost track while laughing as two of the worst people on Earth started going at each other like a pair of angry cats.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

How is anger not an emotion?

[–] zqps@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

That was sarcasm.

You know how parts of the manosohere like to claim men are the voice of reason incarnate and women shouldn't be trusted with any responsibility because they're too emotional?

Part of that facade is to act like anger isn't an emotion, because when they suppress "unmanly" emotions like sadness and fear, they tend to channel them into anger instead.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

Well fuck, when you put it that way, I will not only upvote this, but change my previous down vote to an upvote as well, and then jerk off. That last part is unrelated to your explanation, just thought you'd like my schedule for the day, starting now.

I had to look up what TDS is and for others, it's short for "Trump Derangement Syndrome", an epithet MAGA put on people they don't like to insinuate that they fear Trump and his ilk.

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 3 weeks ago

I assumed it was some ketamine side effect.

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

I thought it was tiny dick syndrome

Earlier today my wife sent me a link to an article about the Trump/Elon drama and compared it to our teenager's high school bullshit level feuds.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head.

If Elon said that about epstien that means he knew the entire time and chose not to say anything

[–] natecox@programming.dev 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

To be fair, I feel like almost everyone I’ve ever met would be too emotional to be president.

We failed pretty horrifically at screening the bullshit out though. Like, god damn.

[–] EndRedStateSubsidies@leminal.space 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

The greatest illusion of humanity is that reason is a default state.

We are hormonal meat beasts that require decades to tame to any productive end and even still we are all literally one phone call away from losing our shit completely.

[–] natecox@programming.dev 6 points 3 weeks ago

There’s no way I can handle a phone call of any kind. Honestly even a mildly annoying Teams message would probably be enough to send me off the deep end.
