Omg he's literally me

This Charlie Kirk guy seems to be counter productive to the GOP.

So far, I've seen him antagonizing:

  • gamers
  • fathers, with healthy relationships with their daughers
  • possibly, healthy families as well
  • women, as in tradition
  • people of color

Not that I'm complaining...

I'm sure like many, my 'X' feed has felt injected with right wing posts since Elon took over. Just maybe two or three days ago, I noticed a new trend of posts it was serving to me. This whole weird new trough of posts has been super alpha male vibes and 'hot' women shaming men for playing video games. I legit wonder if this story has anything to do with why that's being targeted at me, a very casual gamer, now.

Just want to remind everyone, deleting your account and leaving the platform is a way to harm the platform that has turned into an enabler of bigoted hatred. And in doing so, stop being an enabler of the known enabler.

I hope you didn't feel attacked or criticized. Sometimes people just need to hear that they CAN leave. Regardless of what we are talking about.

Nothing but love to you.

The republicans really, really do hate being called weird, don’t they.

[–] [email protected] 74 points 4 months ago (5 children)

they're trying so hard to turn it around. just listen to anything they say nowadays; it either involves calling democrats or leftists weird, or calling what they do normal.

this is why this word is more potent than anything you could say about them. say they're fascists and draconian, they wear that as a badge of honor. fascists love being feared, fearsomeness is the refuge of the pathetic.

but they can't handle being called weird. the entire conservative mindset is about how a set of nonsense beliefs and traditions are "normal" and everyone who doesn't align with that is degenerate. that's what they're conserving after all, the "normal". once that's turned around and everybody agrees that they're the weird ones they lose their fucking minds.

so now they're trying to call everything the democrats do weird. they're so desperate.

This guy gets it.

They took "deplorable" as a badge of honor because "deplorable" is a term a high school teacher would use to describe the cool kids who smoke and hang out.

"Weird" is a term the cool kids would use to describe Barbie Bible and her farm boy buddies.

Conservatives value conformity; they think they are 'normal', and that being 'normal' is by definition good. Pointing out how fucking weird they are hits them where it hurts

The stuff they say is cringe af. They try SO HARD.

[–] [email protected] 100 points 4 months ago

I despise Republicans so much. Bro your candidate is a rapist insurrectionist who spent all day in the White House watching TV. Now he's using Twitter's AI to make fake images of himself being popular.

Glad being called "weird" is enraging them this bad, though.

But, did she give it back?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago

Maybe if he wins the election, he'll get it back 😜

Bro, if the Dreamcast taught me anything it's that the world would be threatened by giant lizards anally pleasuring themselves via death-laser equipped space colonies far less often if we could get political figures capable of telling Sonic from Shadow.

Tim Walz has my support. Prevent Biolizards from threatening the planet!

Is he the rubber and we, the glue?? 😢

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

The rubber is what his dad should have worn.

[–] [email protected] 242 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Walz likes video games? Like a third of the entire planet does? What a weirdo, so unrelatable.
