    Conflating farting loudly on purpose with voting for Trump is really unfair for those of us who fart loudly on purpose. My farts never took away the right to get an abortion.

      trying to conflate dangerous political stances with harmless social faux-pass is a normalization technique used by the far right pretty often.

      yeah voting for policies that de facto decrease the life quality of a large number of people, needlessly, is the same as farting in public. how cute and quirky.

      Also? If the target audience is… five years old…. It’s actually comedic genius.

      (Edit to clarify… the farting. Not any flirtation. Though, I’m sure single mothers might appreciate someone willing to entertain their kid for a bit. Maybe. 50/50 odds you get maced.)
