Um, Gen X here…{waves}

At one point in time, tattoos were mostly confined to military or gangs or what have you.

I don’t think tattoos have been considered “edgy” in any way since maybe sometime in the 80s? My generation and younger tends to have tons of ink and facial/body piercings…I last remember people clutching their pearls about tattoos/piercings in maybe the early 90s?

Thanks, donnie!

Well, this woman tried to kick the police officer arresting her, so…when people talk about conservative privilege, she is the poster child for it.

This bitch was fucking with our election and then resists arrest, FFS.

Yeah.

Thanks, Jared… 😠

Yes, this. As an actual “tech bro”, I’m annoyed that these assholes tend to have MBAs or at least MBA-brain, and are just basically the same set of people that slide in out of corporate boardroom chairs and VC firms, etc…these guys are not “nerds”. They might have programmed or done something in IT, at one point. That is not their role now.

Curtis Yarvin is a piece of shit and so are the authors of things like Unhumans and The Sovereign Individual.

You’d need some kind of org that does what ICE is allegedly supposed to be doing, but at this point, you probably have to burn it to the ground and start over to achieve that.

For starters, it would have to be something that is absolutely beholden to local interests, whether they are the city, state, county, etc…not some unchained federal agency that can go buck-wild on areas that did not vote in sufficient enough numbers for whoever is currently in office.

Yeah, maybe a softer landing than most of his former insiders get, I suppose. Still, probably orchestrated to get her away and out of the picture w/o her writing some tell-all book…

In addition - it was pretty wild to see the reaction of far-right Karens queening out right after donnie’s first so-called “win” in 2016. They thought they now had a permission structure to be openly racist because of all the dog-whistles from the asshole-in-chief, and they face-planted, often losing their jobs or being utterly dunked on in viral videos of their behavior.

That’s why donnie 2.0 is so much worse. Both he and they wanted zero brakes being pumped on turning this place into a shithole country.

Also, a fuck-ton of them want to impose not only just xtianity on everyone else, but their shitty version of it.

The Seven Mountain Mandate assholes would just love to put the Constitution through the shredder, and declare that it is “freedom” to have a “Christian nation”. But I’m pretty sure that xtians like Universalist Unitarians can fuck right off under that kind of “freedom”.

Yeah, there are probably also a lot of racists among them, but it is not only racism that drives these weird, weird people.

76% of Republicans are lying, then. And the 1% of course are having their balls being gently cradled by the conservatives in power…

They frequently drone on about the ‘woke mind virus’. Yet again it’s just projection. The real ‘mind virus’ is the one fucking up their heads, and by extension fucking up the world.

They are great at projection because they blathered on and on about conservatives being canceled. Canceled, where? And I have yet to see any good example of any of them being actually canceled.

Meanwhile, they actively seek to not only “cancel” everyone they don’t like via the power of the government (see: Colbert for instance), but also fire them, imprison them, deport them, put them in camps, and even murder them on the streets.

This is taken down nearly perfectly in this video, by the way. Everyone should watch this, since David Brooks spreads this kind of stuff all the time.

The punditocracy’s obsession with an imaginary woke “tyranny” is a perfect example of the decadence and moral vacuousness of the commentary class.

I would not be surprised to find that a lot of people with various mental disorders vote conservative, too.

Dark triad traits, etc…not sure what traits tend to track along with being a RWA (right wing authoritarian), but it would not surprise me to find a bias toward being a Republican, since that is essentially their platform.

I’d have to say that an awful lot of Americans saw the truth decades ago.

We just need more of us. And we need a media - both “legacy” and social - that doesn’t do the Murc’s Law bullshit and doesn’t have “The Algorithm” constantly fucking us all.

Well, then…bye, Felicia.

For some reason I’m reminded of that crazy lady that was the GF of Junior screaming to an empty room about how the “best is yet to COME!!!”

Whatever happened to that crazy lady, anyway? 🤔

Oh right, she was used up and cast aside like a used Kleenex…

He’s actually right about vandals, but just not in the way he thinks he is.

Comment above said his net worth is something like 2 billion. Let’s say he had that in cash and just did a HYSA and got 3.25% on it and just tried to live on the interest alone.

That’s be 65 million per year. Sure, taxes would take a bite out of that. Even if it took half (not likely), I’m sure most people could find a way to get by on 32.5 million per year…

Didn’t the money already move to her possession?

What a petty little man donnie is, by the way.

That kind of narrative is perfect for a narcissist, by the way: the “I’m not perfect, I’m forgiven” is a great way to get out of ever apologizing for your behavior, here, in reality - “I worked it out with Jesus” is handing narcissists a perfect cop-out, since narcissists will do nearly anything but ever give a genuine apology to another human being.

Anyone that has ever had to deal with a narcissist has probably noticed they will almost never apologize.
