I think he’s glitched out halfway between 1) trying to figure out something outrageous enough to say that would seem proportional to the electoral blowout, and 2) his simple-ass programming that defaults to “winners are good”

I hope he has a fucking stroke the next time he goes to honk out a dirt snake

And Fark!

You sure do always seem to post the same responses

Americans would rather chuck perfectly good food into a dumpster than entertain the possibility of summoning the collective fucking will to fix a VERY straightforward problem. The idea that they could just legislate some reasonable liability protections and make sure edible food gets to hungry people apparently requires a level of imagination and civic competence beyond anyone’s wildest dream. So much easier to blame “some asshole” for creating what is surely an insurmountable legal paradox. The food rots, needy people go hungry, and the US gets to pretend the problem is some unavoidable fact of life rather than admit they just couldn’t be arsed to try.

The base knows too. They love how upsetting it is for the people they hate to watch them do this. Their willingness to debase themselves is fueled by spite.

This response is so telling. Bluesky is fucking AWASH in comments like, “ha! how can anyone be this dumb?” “Has anyone ever been stupider?” “HEY, they said A when yesterday they said B!” Americans still refuse to look at what the far right is doing right in their faces.

This isn’t stupidity, it’s a intentional tactic. For MAGA, it’s a sycophancy test. The more absurd the claim, the more useful the test. Believing it or agreeing with it is so far from the point. It’s about ensuring the base continues to publicly demonstrate their willingness to abandon reality on command. “The more obvious bullshit we ask you to swallow or horrendous racism we can get you to defend, the more enthusiastically you will have to do it because you’d look SO WEAK choosing THIS spot to draw the line.”

For the rest of you, it’s a demoralization tactic. They’re rubbing your nose in how ridiculous they can be and STILL be an electoral threat. They know their supporters won’t abandon them, and they know that their opponents will do little more than express outrage, call them stupid on social media, and move on. “We can say absolutely anything, no matter how absurd, and you still have no choice but to treat us like legitimate opposition. What the fuck are you going to do about it?”

“The animals jump onto the solar panels and get fried,” Trump says. Not because he’s an idiot (which he IS, but that isn’t what’s on display here), but because the truth doesn’t matter when you’re not actually trying to convince anyone of anything. It isn’t about persuasion, it’s a demonstration of impunity. They’re showing everyone listening that they can make a mockery of reality, demand that their followers applaud, and force everyone else to spend their time arguing about whether the fucking animals are actually getting fried.

🙄

Suicidal people who don’t take at least one fascist with them? World is better off without them anyway.

Fuck, Tay Zonday is even prettier

No, you’re fine. Stay home and do nothing. I’m absolutely fine with your country becoming a cautionary tale for everywhere else the Nazis are trying to make inroads.

You just keep doing fuck all, vote like you were going to do anyway, attend a parade or two and wave a snarky sign. Really. Don’t do a damn thing, and watch what happens. There’s literally no one I’d rather see made an example of than some cowardly white liberal on Lemmy projecting insincerity onto actual antifascists.

Americans are the biggest bunch of fucking cowards.

Oh, look what you’ve done. You’ve created a political morality in which the government’s entitlement to your obedience increases in direct proportion to how willing it is to fucking kill you.

There’s no country where people should be fighting back harder than the one where the government is most willing to murder them for daring to resist its authority. You’re part of the problem.

Did I not say “which is fine”?

Okay, but you’ve just created a sentence fragment, which is fine unless you were trying to use complete sentences.

GUARANfuckingTEED to be the same parents who won’t shut the fuck up about participation trophies, how kids these days are too soft, and how nobody deserves anything they haven’t earned through white-approved work. Always preaching meritocracy, personal responsibility, and how losing builds character. Fucking snowflakes.

This but unironically.

Tacit support by way of inaction is still support.

Let’s be real, it’s not as if America is interested in punching Nazis anymore. You might be surprised what people would cheer if you’d get off your cowardly asses and start taking action.
