L.i.am

When even an asshat like Nick Fuentes disavows your party, who the hell is left for you to represent?

If your values change every time the president changes his values then quite frankly you have none. You're just a toady at that point. Post on X by Dan Carlin

Bro… Dan Carlin is based.

Oh I get it, in general I wholeheartedly agree with your criticism, and I share your distaste for name calling and the degradation of our political discourse.

For some reason this post and person (Nic Carter) just made me more angry than usual.

Pfft.

He’s advocating for the wholesale imprisonment of CEOs for standing up to the government and praising an authoritarian state for this practice. He’s also been multiply accused of rape including with minors.

Ad hominem you say?

I’m okay with it.

And apparently he’s not only and authoritarian right wing fruit loop, he also a backstreet boy, and according to a number of lawsuits an alleged pedophile.

It’s depressing how predictable this is.

No wonder we’re getting such quality thinking

Post from right wing lunatic Nic Carter that reads: “If a top AI CEO in China told the CCP to go kick rocks when they asked for help, that CEO would be instantly sent to prison. This is the correct approach Letting AI CEOs play politics and dictate policy for the military and soon the entire country like their own personal fiefdoms is appalling and undemocratic If Trump doesnt bring Dario to heel now, we will simply end up completely subjugated by him and his lunatic EA buddies”

Ok who the fuck is Nic Carter?

Is the wellspring of lunatic idiotic takes from the right truly this limitless?

Please forgive this
Selfish question, but
What am I to say to all these ghouls, tonight?

How long can a democracy last when there are none left who see its incredible value?

This country is under some kind of wizard's curse where every 50 years there's a crisis that reminds everyone why it's bad for a small gang of obscenely rich assholes to control everything, and we go ohhh and then we all immediately forget again

Dude, so weird, I haven’t seen Falling Down in at least 20 years but it lives in my head rent free when thinking about this shit!

I’m grateful for the SCOTUS ruling against Trump’s tariffs.

But I think it’s a bit rich of the justices to speak of upholding the rule of law when they gave Trump effective immunity thus elevating him above it.

In their hatred of the Biden administration they created a legal framework for a dictator, and now they seem to expect him to obey their later rulings against him.

Not how it works I’m afraid.

Me too.

It’s not even clear that the infinite grift of World Liberty Financial is illegal.

If there is be substantive change, all of this must not depend of convention, as we know there are creedless shells of men attempting to ascend to the White House

I heard someone say recently (I forget who, sorry) that most MAGA would be happy to trade much of the economic advantage the US has achieved over the last 40 years for job security

And in that, I can’t blame them.

Still doesn’t justify gambling civilised society on that desire though

When MAGA says “…Great AGAIN” they are primarily criticising globalism, the reforms of the 80s to 00s

Which is, not coincidentally, the eras they are imagining as the golden age (it was).

We agree on 1 thing: that this era is inferior.

So why are you trying to destroy it by going back to the 30s?

A Republican with a spine is to be applauded

Security Council leader of Russia Nikolai Patrusev said 11 November 2024 "To reach success in elections Donald Trump was supported by certain powers to which he has obligations. As a responsible person, he is obliged to meet these obligations".

Trump Supporters:

I understand that you like him owning the libs.
I understand that you like him stopping immigration.

But here’s the thing: you also know that he makes the rest of world feel like the world is headed for hell, and you don’t care

That, I will never understand.

Here’s a rule of thumb

Listen closely to political figures: if they are trying to build trust in important democratic institutions, they are trying to strengthen the nation

If they are undermining trust in important democratic institutions, they are trying to destroy democracy

It’s that simple.

Meta

There’ll always be some. But the Obama video?

Not too many black people who voted Trump for the first time in 2024 are gonna be super cool with that…

And remember, he owes the 2024 win to increases with the black and Hispanic communities

If she ever had it

Message for all sitting Republicans still defending Trump:

Good luck getting the black vote ever again.

The Depth of MAGA’s Moral Collapse How we got to “I love Hitler.”

www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

"Professing love for Hitler is more than anti-Semitic—it’s antihuman. It’s a proud refusal to be bound by the most basic standard of goodness, a deliberate expression of contempt for everything decent.

The texts degrade all of us."
