These are the same people who’d say “stop lying, you look too manly to be a trans!!!1!1!!”

AOC put it nicely, the GQP wants to do a genital check on every woman and girl that dares to go into a restroom. Can’t we just make private stalls open to anyone?

People like this deserve to be put in front of a firing squad with a target on their head to see if it explodes too, but I doubt it will because they probably have a thick skull.

We really do live in the shittiest timeline if “normal” news seems so fake now

They would blame Biden, Harris, Obama and Hillary Clinton for these things and more.

Jokes aside, people will only start being outraged when Starbucks and Dunkin’ start selling their favorite drinks for $15+. I only hope that when things get to that point people start taking the streets in protest.

This is similar to how someone will slowly abandon their old friends to be relevant with the “cool” kids who will never see you as part of their group no matter what, and your old friends end up making new friends leaving you alone. If this doesn’t work in real life, I don’t get how this could work in politics.

The Democratic party has to stop treating us like the old friend they visit every so often just to get something out of us while forming closer relationships with others who have no business being their friend.

Exactly. Blaming others before recognizing your own shortcomings is a shitty strategy and it will only serve to alienate people who could otherwise be your champion if you didn’t attack them.

I also think part of the problem is that with the internet, we may just have a lot of data readily available, so much so people are overwhelmed they just tune it all out. We can spend a lot of time wondering why people vote the way they do but if the losing party doesn’t take the time to be retrospective and humble as to why they lost then I can’t blame people for that too much.

He’s giving strong weird relative at a family dinner table vibes by saying offensive things and then trying to ease the situation by saying “it’s just a joke, relax, you can’t take a joke!?” There’s a big difference between being funny and being an attention seeker.

They do it so that they can prove that they “welcome everyone”

At this point I feel bricks are more useful than these people

Someone should warn them that an orange monster has been eating the brains of countless Americans, anyone eating cats has competition!

Ask one of the schmucks advocating for this to be the first to enlist and I bet they’ll have some bullshit excuse as to why they can’t
