"Cant wait for Social Security to be abolished, these useless old people should just die and not waste our resources."

elderly relatives sitting nearby

(/s Lol, luckily I don't know anyone that voted trump, I mean I don't know what distant relatives voted for, but they're in another state so I don't care πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ)

Conservatives unironically agree. If you're not successfully rent seeking by retirement age, you should work until you die on your feet.

Hair transplants and testosterone supplements are gender affirming healthcare

[–] UnderpantsWeevil 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yes, but the enforcement is selective so they won't be targeted.

Isn't it weird how theres a conservative "argument" about morningafter pills, "if it's genuine rape, God has ways of stopping a pregnancy", but the same people wouldn't see anything wrong with taking Viagra despite their god-given sexual impotence.

Viagra and toupes

You know what, I'm convinced.

Deport everyone with immigrant blood from America.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 days ago

Make America native again!

Mormons would just start deporting First Nations people.

[–] Frozengyro 26 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I think we should just deport everyone, no matter what. It'll be a nice little sanctuary after.

Bro's trying to deport the Indians on Thanksgiving πŸ’€

"How do you deal with the fact that Trump will die of old age soon and you basically voted for J.D. Vance instead?"

[–] Intergalactic 84 points 5 days ago (2 children)

They don’t care, they like Vance too.

[–] [email protected] 70 points 5 days ago (3 children)

They relate to his general unlikability and being a piece of shit person.

That's literally why my several members of my family voted for Trump. They really don't like Trump (they voted for Nikki Haley in the primaries), but they really like Vance and hope he'll take over at some point.

I was blown away, because I was under the impression that Vance was fairly universally disliked. I immediately responded with some equivalent of "clearly we watch very different news."

Different media diets create different opinions. You're not shoveling Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, and Joe Rogan down your ear holes every day. That shapes your view of the world just like Stewart and Colbert and Aaron Sorkin did for millennials.

[–] tty5 8 points 4 days ago

Wait, it's physically possible to like Vance? I was sure the dislike is on a genetic level like uncanny valley.

It'll be really funny seeing people die from listeria after drinking listeria milk on purpose

Putting the CEO of a space ship company in charge of the government's space ship funding makes about as much sense as letting Congress vote on giving themselves raises

You know, there's technically nothing stopping them from voting for Putin as Speaker of the House.

[–] BaldManGoomba 17 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Some mysterious falling out of windows later he could be president

[–] papalonian 10 points 5 days ago (3 children)

What's mysterious about a tragic suicide?

[–] BaldManGoomba 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The convenience of it always happening to people who are harsh critics or in the way of putin. Just always to mysterious. That or standards for windows are terrible

[–] papalonian 7 points 4 days ago

Nothing mysterious about that, I too would suicide if I didn't see the glory that is Putin.

You've already received a joke answer, so yes, breast reduction surgery for guys is a thing. And sometimes the doctor can convince some insurance companies to cover it. But ymmv, because USA.

I was thinking about explaining that trump legalized trans weed last time he was president so why not go fully legal?

[–] [email protected] 55 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Here’s the source

It’s truly amazing that orange man legalized weed in 2018.

You know for a goddamn fact that nobody in congress nor the orange man intended to do this.

Yet another example of old white men legislating on stuff they don’t understand but at least in this case it’s a win for us

I've tried to explain what delta 8 vs delta 9 is too many times so I'm trying to simplify it.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (9 children)

Weed isn't a single drug, it's a complex plant that contains many psychoactive compounds called cannabinoids. The best known and (probably) most intoxicating of these is what's commonly called THC, technically delta-9-THC, though over 100 others have been identified so far. Some of these are highly (pun intended) psychoactive while some appear, at least to the user, to be pharmacologically inert. Regardless, a hastily-written 2018 federal farm bill which was partially intended to legalize commercial hemp essentially legalized all of them including even tiny (<0.3%) concentrations of delta-9. That has allowed for a massive market of legal (in states which haven't since passed their own laws saying otherwise) weed. It's not the same weed sold by regulated recreational/medical dispensaries in legal states, though. Rather, these are the products you may have seen in gas stations and head shops, most of which contain at least some delta-8-THC, a compound that is very closely chemically related to delta-9. The key thing to understand, though, is that despite very similar chemical structures, two related drugs can vary substantially in terms of their potency and subjective effects.

I think that's about as simple as I know how to make it but I'll be over here spending my Thanksgiving evening in bed with my dogs and a bottle of wine if anyone has questions.

That's not what it says

the study found that cisgender males accounted for the vast majority of breast reductions, with 80% of surgeries among adults performed on cisgender men and 97% of surgeries among minors performed on cisgender male teens.

Trump is going back to being a Democrat. I feel like I've been lied to, but you obviously saw it coming and was one step ahead of me all along. Well played.

I heard his AG has plans to send in the military to take away your guns! For your safety!

Heard about something about how his AG pick potentially making it so at least people must register their guns. No idea how true or if it's gonna happen, but I imagine that alone would be enough to make a lot of his voters super angry.
