U.S. Politics

Yeah, the truly damning thing is how many people still either fully support or 'kinda' support Trump. They're so fucking brainwashed that they've become completely unreachable at this point. And all you get from them is equivocating, bullshit about how 'both sides are bad' or 'you can't believe anything so why bother even watching this kind of news' shit. It's deeply depressing.
And I'll point out again, deeply unChristian.
 
I mean not a single Democrat I've seen has batted an eyelash at throwing Clinton in front of the moving train, or Chomsky, or Gates, or anyone else in those pictures. So of course Trump's people are like "let's make it look like Clinton raped Diana Ross's kids." They will do anything to try to avoid looking in the mirror at their own choices. Democrats make mistake after mistake but at least when someone on their side is accused of something like SEXUAL ASSAULT they don't hesitate to burn that person to the ground. I swear to god we could have photos of Trump face-fucking Macauley Culkin on the set of Home Alone 2 and his voters would find some way to absolve him of it.
 
If conservative voters had an ounce of intellect, they would be wondering why we're getting stuff like Clinton with Epstein photos, but most everything else is just redacted or 'we need more time to release this.' When, obviously, that more time is being used to doctor photos, redact things WE want to know, and bury evidence. Every conservative that's been crying for decades about protecting the children and government corruption should be storming the Capital again, and yet they're just nodding along going 'yeah, Clinton WAS a creep.'

Like yeah, he was. So is Trump. Let's put them both in prison. It's not an either/or scenario.
 
I wanna riff on “evil” here real quick.

I agree that there aren’t *that* many actual people who are “Evil” with a capital “E”.

Most folks involved in “evil” are merely weak, cowardly, and easily led.

But that’s the thing: “evil” isn’t a person, it isn’t even an idea: it’s a gestalt amalgamation of a thousand tiny cuts spurred by ignorance, fear, tribalism . . .

We don’t require “Evil Men” to have an “evil” country. “Evil” does not need to be personified nor grandiose.

The United States is absolutely evil and has been for a very long time, in my view since its inception. It isn’t always “EVIL” as we collectively perceive it, nor always controlled by objectively “evil” people, and yet the stew is fundamentally poisoned all the same.

MAGA did not create this: it weaponized it.

Absolutely. Any time anyone says "this isn't who we are!" it's like... man, have you not been paying attention for 300 years?
 
adding fake photos & removing ones that show Trump

“I think I’d wanna do the White House… if there was some kind of inclusion for fans,” Strickland told video streamer Adin Ross and his friends. “So, if there was some kind of inclusion for fans, it’d be more … but like, just to go hang out with the f—ing Epstein list? I’m good, dog. I’m good, dude.”

by the time his term is up I bet he would have named everything after himself
 
I feel like somewhere there's a discussion of renaming the country The United States of Trump. Or Trumplandia. Or Ameralago.

A flesh-eating fly once eradicated is moving back toward the U.S.

California researchers are preparing for the possible return of the New World screwworm, a parasitic fly that feeds on living flesh and once devastated U.S. livestock. By monitoring traps and educating veterinarians and farmers, they hope to stop the pest before it gains a foothold.

Thinking back to when someone thought Tim Kaine was the best choice for VP.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fucking Democrats, man. I have never once regretted walking away from that party, and party affiliation in general.

Fuck your “teams”.
