This post fits so well here:
How many times do you have to be hit with The Stupid Stick before you finally realize they aren’t trying to knock pesky flies off your MAGA hat?
I’m so stealing that.
ETA: Some MAGAt replied to a comment I made on a ‘deport Elon and Melania’ meme. After a couple of exchanges I told him ‘Whatever, dud. I’m not going to waste any more time on a Trump cultist.’ He said, ‘You libiots are the actual cult.’ Like… ‘Nu-uh! I’m not a cultist! You’re a cultist!’ Oy, vey. I could have used your line in reply… but I’m not going to take the bait.
Cassidy posted on Twitter about how we can avoid measles outbreaks like the one in Texas by using the MMR vaccine.
This is the guy who “struggled” with RFK Jr.'s HHS nomination, but ultimately voted for the antivaxer who helped spur the 2019 Samoan measles outbreak that killed 83 (79 of them children) and hospitalized 1,868.
Cassidy’s betrayal of his pro-vaccine views for political expediency won’t be forgotten.
Yes it will. Tomorrow, I predict.
“If only Comrade Stalin knew!”
Political discourse on the right these days basically boils down to “I know you are, but what am I?”
I almost wrote that.
I actually commented ‘dude’, but I missed the ‘e’ when I posted here. But it fits.
They never realize that THEY could be the “wasteful government spending” they hate. If they’re too stupid to see that, maybe they shouldn’t have been hired.
“When you walk in, look around the room. If you don’t see the mark, you are the mark.”
I came here to post that. In all irony.
Not really apt. When they walked in they could see plenty of faces that the face-eating leopard could eat besides themselves.
They were just (a) too stupid and lacking self-awareness to realise they also had a face and/or (b) too stupid or gullible to realise that a face-eating leopard who had a decades long history of lying about not eating its carers’ faces then eating its carers’ faces, would probably eat their face.
The leopards are eating well.
But when other people lose their jobs, that’s cutting the fat.
Sadly, almost all these examples still believe. Some variant of “this is a mistake”, “Trump never intended this”, or similar. They’ll all blame someone (Musk if we’re lucky, Democrats sadly more likely) for making this happen, and they’ll still keep voting for the Leopards.
A recession is when your neighbor loses his job. A depression is when you lose yours.
To Hell with the both of them.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
(Actually sobs for America). Fuck me dead, you guys are in the shit big time now.
Truly. I’ve posted this before and I’ll post it again when these suckers keep whining.
Not just America. The US is heading towards losing the cold war it won 35 or so years ago. There is every prospect that Putin is going to consider he has just been given the green light to annex (at least) former soviet-bloc countries without interference and that NATO is basically dead.
That’s slightly off topic for this particular thread but it is bemusing to consider that so many MAGA’s worship Reagan and his policies, yet what Trump has done over the last couple of weeks has ripped the rug from under the achievements of those very policies.
