If Epstein died during the Biden administration, Biden would have been blamed, and if there were pictures of them together, and creepy video of Biden talking about Epstein's preference for young girls, it would have been the only thing Republicans would discuss for years. But when it's Trump - they are silent.

And there is sworn, corroborated testimony of a woman who had to pleasured Biden when she was a teenager while wearing a white glove there probably would have been riots in front of the white house.

It's mind boggling how quickly the GOP became the Fake Party of Fakeness. Almost any claim they make, you can look up and easily find it's bullshit. It's like Trump said, "I love the uneducated!" The party thrives on ignorance now. The main force driving them is young men without college who are angry that they don't have more power. The party's message is just plant your feet on the ground and insist you're right until the other side throws up its hands and gives in, like the low self esteem gf who sticks with you no matter what because she's too dumb to realize she has options. Problem is, Americans know they have options now - and like the saying goes, We Won't Go Back. I'm really looking forward to this week.

how quickly

Hate to break it to you, but those conservatives spent decades transforming the Republican party into what it is today. It would be unfair to dismiss their years of focus on indoctrinating and cultivating hate and fear.

mfw it was actually about primate dominance hierarchies and not any kind of code of morality all along.

If you recognize it for what it is, why are you on that right-wing cesspool of an app?

Gets worse without dissenting voices, that's why 'safe space' is such a double-edged sword.

It's an entirely captured medium. The best you'll ever be is the Alan Colmes to CatTurd's Sean Hannity.

He’s a pretty popular moderate-left YouTuber/podcaster/talking-head. It’s part of the job.

Because they will attack at every weakness democracy has to destroy it. They are not moralists, they're invaders.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

For them to be invaders they would have to be from somewhere else. These are home grown domestic terrorists spawned from our society and late-stage capitalism.

They are invaders in the sense they've invaded the minds of our friends and families with their fascist ideas.

To suggest Republicans only argue in bad faith is to suggest that water is transparent.

Republicans hearing you mention "trans-parents"

Frantic sounds of stirring up as much muck in water as possible

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Quick, everyone shit in your water bottle to own the libs!

That’s what made the whole idiotic “pizzagate” and “Q” thing especially staggeringly stupid - Trump was cast as a selfless hero working desperately to save society. In real life, obviously, he’s an intensely selfish narcissistic dickbag. Of all the ridiculous claims involved in that, Trump being a noble savior is the least believable.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

It’s like the chuckleheads writing this timeline spent a billion dollars on marketing consultants and focus groups to pick out the worst possible casting for “morally superior savior, plus secret genius subverting tyranny.”
