It's because JD vance is a fucking weirdo. I didn't like pushing false stories about people, but he's just such a smarmy motherfucker it fits so well. He is a detestable person with detestable views.
No. It's clearly a stupid thing to do. Being detached from the complex truth of things is 90% of the problem with mankind, as far as politics go. I thought there was substance behind these jokes but it's all made up.
I'm sure there's plenty of real things to underscore what a massive duche Trump VP is. Making things up about him, or anybody else, should be illegal (and it is) for good reasons.
And you call others stupid... lol
I didn't mean to generalyze. You are clearly stupid, since you can't imagine a world where, I don't know, Jordan Peterson has hidden in Russia to go on a drug induced coma to fix his drug addiction and there's some tangential validity to one VP potential pansexual urges.
You are clearly stupid since you don't understand what a joke is, and since you don't know how to write the word "generalize".
You are mixing ignorance with stupidity. I'm ignorant.
You know who else gets accused of not getting jokes? Lefties liberal snowflakes. Rings any bell?
This isn't Truth Social.
You just fixed my ignorance, thanks.
It's great to see what tiny issues resonate with their massive self doubt though, tiny hands or fucking couches
So what up with Obama birth cert and the elections Biden stole?
I don't know, you tell me. It looks like we are considering those fair game to gain the upper hand on our opposition...
EDIT: oh you meant the legality? Well, it's America so the law doesn't really apply the way one would expect.
The difference is satire vs disinformation; nobody with any brains actually believes Vance fucked a couch, and every time I've seen it queried anywhere it's always stated as a completely fake dumb joke.
It's just fucking funny because fascists are creepy snowflakes, and it gets under their skin.
Satire is supposed to be thought provoking. This is pathetic.
Cry us a river
"I don't care" is always a legitimate answer. I just think you guys are wrong and engaging in the same shitty behaviours we are trying to grow out of as a society.
