„He came in like a wrecking baaaaaaaall“
My face! The leopards! The goggles! They do nothing!
You were only supposed to destroy other people's lives!
"I didn't think the leopards were going to eat MY face" - says the person that voted for the Leopards Eating Faces party
Imagine working with the IRS, voting with the party that has said for years they want to defund the IRS, and then being surprised when that party attacks the IRS. I don’t fucking understand these people at all. They truly live a life devoid of reality. They are incapable of considering real world consequences.
Truly to be a conservative is to lack imagination.
Just like anyone in a union that voted for Trump, or any woman. I don't know what they expected.
In the union we were always taught to vote with your wallet. Every meeting during elections I heard it. Still, every other guy would be on about voting for Trump. Can't fix stupid.
Imagination, empathy, intelligence, a soul, basic communication skills, and any level of emotional maturity.
Don't dehumanize people who disagree with you, this is the wrong path.
Criticizing and even insulting awful people is hardly dehumanizing. Notice how I just called them people?
But, I don't know, maybe calling large swaths of people vermin, or saying they're poisoning the blood of our country, or even just rounding them up and shipping them off to some place they do not know because they're the wrong skin tone? Well that would be pretty shitty.
Speaking ill about people that want you dead and are trying aggressively.to kill you, is that ok?
Absolutely! I mean you're acknowledging that they're people, and people have conflicts all the time, this is normal. Feel free to have all the opinions about that you want.
But saying that as a group, they all lack basic intelligence or a soul, that's not helpful to discourse, and that's really my only point.
Hey, if I had all the power in the world I’d still share it with them in the form of healthcare, equal rights, and all that. That’s the thing, they fucking suck rocks and are the worst examples of a human being but I’ll still consider them human either way.
It’s not a binary, maybe you’ll learn that and maybe you won’t.
I accused you of dehumanizing people and you respond with...
It’s not a binary
What does that even mean in this context? Are you saying they're like part people?
For the record you said earlier that they lacked intelligence and a soul, which is pretty literally dehumanizing, that's what I was responding to. Look, I'm not trying to shame you here, I get where you're coming from. I'm trying to remind you that you're being taken advantage of. That foreign and corporate powers are actively trying to influence public discourse and divisiveness is their most powerful tool, they're pitting us against each other for their own gain.
So don't fall for it! Don't take the bait! As soon as you start treating the other side like they don't even matter, like they're some different species who aren't smart enough to think for themselves, then you're giving up the game, we lose.
And you're right about one part for sure though, conservatives are lacking in communication skills, unfortunately, so are liberals; that's just a human problem. (And on that note, maybe some day I'll learn how to communicate all this in one sentence rather than having to write several paragraphs every time.)
A binary as in you can call someone a piece of absolute fucking trash and still not try to take their rights away. And I specifically said I will always treat them as human because I have principles. Also lacking a soul is a more flowery, poetic way of saying that they seem unable to have kind of compassion or joy and they treat situations as mathematic bullshit instead of ever taking into consideration a human aspext(but boy are they also full of feelings and absolutely terrible at math).
Like, I’m glad you’re looking out but I think you’re missing the nuance here.
McCabe stated DOGE is acting like a “wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
Reading between the lines, ol' Bob here seems to think that only MAGA are people. Destroying the libs' lives is perfectly fine.
That's what they all think. They're violent, hateful, and disgusting people. I'm wondering how long before Nazi hat wearing motherfuckers start getting attacked in public as a matter of self defense.
A few miles away, another prison employee, Crystal Minton, accompanied her fiancé to a friend's house to help clear the remnants of a metal roof mangled by the hurricane. Ms. Minton, a 38-year-old secretary, said she had obtained permission from the warden to put off her Mississippi duty until early February because she is a single mother caring for disabled parents. Her fiancé plans to take vacation days to look after Ms. Minton's 7-year-old twins once she has to go to work.The shutdown on top of the hurricane has caused Ms. Minton to rethink a lot of things."I voted for him, and he's the one who's doing this," she said of Mr. Trump. "I thought he was going to do good things. He's not hurting the people he needs to be hurting."
Crystal Minton, who inadvertently became the ideological core of the MAGA movement. She said the quiet part out loud.
I like what the left wants is universal healthcare, a social safety net, housing for everyone, just stuff where we’d love it if everybody had access to it. The only people who need to be “hurt” are the straight-up actual criminals who seem to otherwise dodge every consequence and those people are extremely rich assholes who have a lot of power and use it all for pure evil and none of them are regular people.
But then the right comes along and it’s always “how can we bring the most cruel, crude punishment to this margainalized group of poor people?” and it’s just, like…fucking really?
I've been wondering the same thing.
him also misunderstanding what the "wrecking ball" does?

I didn’t think the Leopards would terminate my employment!
No kidding you voted for the person that said he wanted to hurt people.
Oh look! It’s your cake and now you can eat it too!
Sorry, no eggs
Die Eier von Satan
You won. Now deal with it.
Realization is not enough. If you voted for Trump you need to actively work to undo the damage you caused. This isn't a forgive and forget situation.
The IRS, particularly, was spoken about as a clear target well before Election Day. The GOP make it clear they want to kill the revenue generating service because they’re actually terrible business people.
This guy is an idiot if he didn’t think he could be impacted, too.
When he said he was coming for everybody but you thought he'd make an exception for you.
In other news, Trump voter finally understands Homer's catchphrase "D'oh!" after 38 years.
Odds are extremely low that he learned anything. He probably thinks he was being informative about them not harming the right people.
It hurt itself in its confusion
So anyways, I think we need to come together on a Leopard's Obesity Awareness program. Nobody seems to be talking about just how fat those poor poor leopards are getting!!
Save the leopards
The world's most microscopic violin is being played
The tardigrade will lend you his.
Enjoy it, dumbass.
The Leopards Eating Faces party is a real thing, guys.
Milei giving his best Borat impression
Haha, that's what you get.
