Trump’s “Christian” bibles are made in communist China.

Checkmate Alex, you fat fucking retard.

[–] Viking_Hippie 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I'm on your side with regards to the insufferable blowhard Alex Jones, but could you maybe insult that Putin-worshipping supplement-hawking grifter with delusions of coherence without resorting to body shaming and an ableist slur?

[–] FlyingSquid 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I agree with you and I would like anyone who argues otherwise to please read this first:

This is fair.

Social media is far too accessible now to just say: "well I wasn't talking about people with actual disabilities" kk chad.

Chad was me, too. Not that I used it all the time or anything but in this comment or another throughout the years.

I'll have to make sure never to do that again.

I saw Trump and Alex get hit by the libs' trans lasers and then their penises turned into vaginas and Alex's vagina looked at me

I wonder what it's like inside his head. The genuinely crazy/purposefully evil ratio, when nobody's looking.

[–] HootinNHollerin 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

In his interview with prosecution videos he’s crying and saying he needs help and doesn’t believe any of it. Then he goes right back to doing more.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Grifter caught in the headlights. Naturally he will play any part that gets him out of it.

It's both funny and sad how unoriginal fascists are. They just claim the opponent does what they do and somehow get away with it.

[–] Xanis 3 points 1 month ago

They get away with it because they're loud and the rest of us largely are not. Moreover, the majority don't take this seriously, and haven't for years, not until recently. It's not just the courts, it's also on us. I like to use COVID as an example: Anti-Vaccine and no-maskers ran rampant. For the most part we did nothing. There's always going to be danger. It's always gonna suck.

This has been slowly changing. I just fear it's too late.

We Will Never Surrender he says, then he scurried away like a coward and hid before things got real.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

As they always do. It's always the lippy little bitches that act all tough until the shit gets real, then they're nowhere to be found.

Trump: “So we are going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue — I love Pennsylvania Avenue — and we are going to the Capitol. And we are going to try and give — the Democrats are hopeless, they are never voting for anything, not even one vote — but we are going to try to give our Republicans — the weak ones because the strong ones don’t need any of our help — going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country. So let’s walk down Pennsylvania Avenue.”

Trump then proceeds to have his fat ass driven back to the White House where he stuffs his face and watches it on TV.

You know, a few months back my wife wanted to show me some stupid shit Trump was crying about on TikTok and I had to tell her to turn it off because I can’t stand that grating voice (edit: nor TikTok generally).

Now I see this direct quote and I can’t even read it all the way through.

It’s always some driveling, nonsensical shit that my programmer brain just can’t fuck with. What kind of mouth breather just takes this on and is just totally down with it?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

People who generally don't read and their ears only pick out whichever words from that salad that hit their 'feels'. They can never repeat what he said, which is telling.

Oh my god these fascists should have been locked up already

We do not recognize Communist Chinese agent Joe Biden

I mean, you'd recognize Communist agents, wouldn't you, Communist Russian agent Jones.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's wild to me that some people are still stuck 40 years in the past.

[–] Viking_Hippie 8 points 1 month ago

Yeah, the fascist theocracy of Putin's Russia isn't any more communist than the US is. Even FURTHER from it, if anything.

I never knew exactly what “globalism” was (or maybe I did know, but forgot), so I looked it up:

globalism /glō′bə-lĭz″əm/

  1. A national geopolitical policy in which the entire world is regarded as the appropriate sphere for a state's influence.
  2. The development of social, cultural, technological, or economic networks that transcend national boundaries; globalization.
  3. An ideology based on the belief that people, goods and information ought to be able to cross national borders unfettered.

So… it’s the opposite of imperialism. You respect and coexist with other cultures rather than trying to dominate them. Nobody builds border walls. Real freedom instead of freedumb as defined by white Christian males. It’s kinda like empathy on a global scale. No wonder selfish, insensitive pricks hate it!

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

"Globalism" in right wing speak means "Jews."

That's it. The belief that a cabal of Jews control the world.

You hit the definition above right, but they aren't using it.

So, a lot of the time with nut jobs like this, globalists is just a code word for Jews.

However, there is a legitimate dark side to globalism as it's conventionally defined outside of neonazi talking points. Globalism is often used as cover for neocolonialism, where poor countries are "better" for resource extraction because the salaries are low and nobody cares about the environmental costs. Meanwhile, rich countries are "better" for design, financial work, technical jobs, etc because the wealth of the populace means people are better educated.

This traps poorer countries in poverty as the only investments are in low-skill manual labour in an environmentally degraded landscape, while the bulk of the profits go into corporations headquartered in wealthier countries. In other words, systemic wealth extraction.

Yeah, it really means Jews.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

jesus fucking christ they're agitating for a bloodbath...
either the military is going to have to massacre a rebellion again,
or they're going to be allowed to run rampant and murder a bunch of civilians.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

This is from 2021. Don't know why we're giving him attention by posting it again now.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

oh! oh shit, thank fuck.

If jones were saying that AFTER getting spanked in court, that seemed a lot more alarming to me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

That's a relief, for a moment I was concerned that Alex Jones is showing his face in public again

Fuck this guy with a crane-lifted pile driver.

[–] P00ptart 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Like, a super cool wrestling move? Or a kinetic gravity experiment to find the tensile strength of an anus?

[–] FuglyDuck 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

though. if you really want to touch the guy, I suppose I wouldn't mind seeing the first... but eww.

(for the record, for the larger ones that are hoisted up by a crane and drive 40'+ piles- er, giant I beams.... the sound of them going can be heard- and felt- for miles. Especially if you happen to be in a basement.)

Biden is so far right of Communism that their ignorance is almost humorous, if it wasn't dangerous. Not to mention their guy called out to his Russian handlers on national TV for help, but at least Russian's are mostly white, I guess?

Promising blood, pain, war, and suffering - so swallow their rhetoric or be ready to be enslaved. Freedom of religion? The fuck does that mean?

Source and important video documenting the events of Jan 5 and 6: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI6as3zkQA8

[–] billiam0202 10 points 1 month ago

Also here's the Knowledge Fight podcast's coverage of the events on Jan 5th and 6th.

Fair warning, this episode is about two hours longer than their usual content. There's a lot to go over.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

As usual we heard pretty much the same thing about Obama being a communist...

Where's the fucking communism asshat!? They've had a collective 12 fucking years to at least try...

It's just the bell to Pavlov's dog... Say communist and right wingers froth at the mouth in a rage, doesn't matter if it's true or not.

[–] FlyingSquid 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All bets are off, Joe. Throw this fucker into a supermax and call it an official presidential act.

China favors Trump for many reasons, namely the destruction of NATO and their close relationship with allied Russia.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Sure Alex. Whatever you say. Only this time, you won't have have Trump and his hand-picked "acting Secretary of Defense" running interference for any rioters. This time, those capitol police will be armed for bear this and every rioter is going to go to bed with a headache.
