I used to work for a guy who legit believed this and the pizza shop pedophile ring, and all the other complete nutbar shit. This guy was generally pretty smart and a made probably close to a 7 figure salary. My mind still can't reconcile how that's possible.
My uncle is a magtard and he belived that the wildfires in LA were caused by space lazers and the houses that didnt burn down had blue roofs so the lazer knew who not to target. This is one of the tamer theories he has, I can feel my 2 last brain cells fighting for life when he talks
This time last year I would have said such talk was hysterical scaremongering, but I'm not sure anymore. The impunity with which they're doing whatever they want really makes me think it's possible they'll either shut it all down on some pretense or completely rig it.
You can't actually believe that, when half the country agrees with the government and military there is no hope that the other half can win, this has been a long held delusion by people that gun rights have anything to do with "stopping tyranny." It's just empty politics.
This is the biggest delusion of the leftists nowadays. Everyone is self-soothing by telling themselves "surely THIS will be the line that Trump crosses and finally the MAGA will turn on him" every day since his election and nearly every other week up during his campaign, and every month leading up to the campaign, and every...
They know. They aren't misinformed, they know what he's doing and what it will cost them. They have given themselves to Trump, there is no line he can cross that will turn them back. Trump knows it, they know it, it's only the left that chooses not to see it.
All these little lies we tell, that they'll finally wake up and smell the ashes, are just to make ourselves feel a little better and more secure. We're willfully putting blindfolds on ourselves to avoid seeing the truth because it is incredibly uncomfortable. So we're marching right alongside MAGA, claiming we're going the opposite direction while they drag us forward off a cliff.
It's the usual McConnell non MAGA Republicans voting against them as they've done with other Trump policies before. Don't kid yourself into thinking any actual MAGA politicians went against their dear leader.
They gleefully reject reality and this will not change. Donald Trump could literally shit in their mouth live on air and they'd thank him and blame Biden.
I have 0 hope of any republican doing anything ever other than bending over and taking their punishment from daddy and thanking him for the opportunity.
Most white collar and some blue collar Americans plan for retirement by investing a part of their monthly pay into an account named a 401k which is invested in the stock market and government bonds. When the market tanks hard, it hurts people in their 50-60s because it messes with their retirement planning.
The vast majority of the guns are in the hands of people who never read the constitution beyond the second half of the second amendment and will actively celebrate any unconstitutional act while mumbling "the USA is a republic, not a democracy"
This isnt an antigun statement, I own guns. Its a statement that the vast majority of magas own guns over the opposition and not just a few. Like a shit ton.
And just think. He got a 2nd term because eggs and gas went up as they did all around the world. Voters are idiots and don’t pay attention to actual details of how and why things are the way they are.
Did I like expensive gas and inflation? No. Did I acknowledge that the world just went through a catastrophic shift in the supply chain because of a devastating pandemic.. and that shit takes time to correct?
Republicans: inflation and these prices are all Biden’s fault. His regulations make everything more expensive.. we’re gonna gut those regulations and make everything cheap.
Idiots: yay! That’s exactly how things work! We’ll vote for you because we have the memory of a goldfish and don’t pay attention to world affairs!
He's running for an unconstitutional third term, and recently put out an EO to illegally take over state voter registration and counting processes. The federal legislature is also in the process of passing a law that will severely limit married women from voting (or anyone who has ever changed their name), and require proof of citizenship to register while restricting what counts as proof to more expensive federal docs.
Did we forget how the pandemic happened and he demonized the actual CDC and so it took way longer for us to get out of it which took years for economic recovery?
He’s doing that now. And we’ll tank so hard that it’ll be up to whoever’s next to try and rebuild and all voters are going to think about is “why are things still bad?” Expecting things to magically get back to normal
If it comes it'll last two years because too many voters have zero attention span and are uninformed fools. We literally elected a twice impeached convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and blatant pathological liar 4 years after kicking him out because grocery prices were too high.
I think that is what the other party should focus on then. Stop with the bull identity politics and start focusing on the large majority 's struggles with actual plans. Maybe even start speaking at a 6th grade comprehension to win over the common folk. Before assumptions are made, I vote straight blue because I'm not a fricken retard.
I didn't say shift to the right. I said speak to the common person and focus on the issues they live daily. Why was the focus on Project 2025 when 50% couldn't be bothered to pick up a single book in a given year? I get P2025 was laying out the guardrails for the conservative agenda, but we need a party that'll fight class warfare and not a culture warfare.
That’s literally what they did. Kamala barely mentioned trans people but people are pretending that democrats ran on trans rights because that’s what republicans said they did. Republicans run on culture war, it’s all they have. But they have an immense propaganda outlet so they can deceive people into pretending democrats are running on totally different stuff than they even talk about. And the P2025 stuff was real and right, so I don’t really know how to address that. I mean it was true.
Yeah, you do have a good point. I think they were handed a bad hand and people's complacency did not help. It is almost as if people beg to have economic catastrophes now. I was trying to explain tariffs to people at a table and they all acted like those wouldn't apply to them. At least I can be right while my portfolio gets fucked.
Why do that when democrats can just shift more to the right to try to attract more republican voters? It’s what they did last time and they very obviously didn’t learn their fucking lesson.
Facts, right now I care about housing costs and early parenthood as I’m nearing my mid thirties with our wedding in the rear-view mirror. Identity issues don’t mean anything to my immediate future, and truth be told all the women and minorities saying white men like me are the cause of society’s problems ain’t helping either.
Gotta be honest, half the shit coming out of Democrats mouths these days straight up condones lawlessness or champions censorship, and another quarter is stupid ideas that barely have 30% public support. They gotta pull it together and come up with a winning message on immigration, the economy, and labor/parental rights if they want to win over middle class folks just trying to provide for their family.
all the women and minorities saying white men like me are the cause of society’s problems ain’t helping either
Is this happening in real life? Or is it r/asablackman shit? Because I have never seen anyone speak as disrespectfully to and about men as right wing manosphere guys, and yet I don't see anywhere near the backlash against them for it?
I guarantee you this won't even change the perception that conservatives are good for the economy and markets. Call it amnesia, call it cognitive dissonance, call it dumb as fuck, but I'll be shocked if this creates anything more than a wave to give the house OR senate back to Dems in the midterms who will save Republicans from themselves and alllllll of this will be forgotten just like their attempt to overturn the results of the election.
we just gotta make sure we educate everyone in those 50 years so this doesn’t happen again. once the boomers got into power they spent the next 30-40 years brainwashing the working class into thinking they don’t deserve better
I still don't trust dems getting off their asses to vote even with this mess they'll think it will be all good and dandy from other people but won't put the effort in themselves.

I'm actually starting to enjoy this. The blue wave is going to last 50 years next time.
