This is also how you get Gerry Connolly elected over AOC for leadership of the House Oversight Committee. Nancy Mace uses an anti-trans slur several times in a committee meeting, and Connolly whines “Here on the committee, a level of decorum requires us to try to avoid slurs” while his Republican colleague smirks at him. Fucking embarrassing.

But, hey, at least you didn’t have somebody “young” and “inexperienced” like AOC in there. Who knows? She might’ve said something rude to Ms. Mace, and we couldn’t have that! Think of the decorum!

It hurts and there’s poop.

Only if you do it wrong.

That’s like saying “I don’t understand baking at all. It hurts like hell when you pull that burning hot sheet out of the oven!”

but it feels like old reddit

Yes, and that’s a good thing.

There are lots of Lemmy apps that display posts in different ways. If you want “bells and whistles”, then find an app that gives you that.

Sounds like a Democrat.

Out of all of the shit Trump is doing, this is the least consequential. Trans people are dying because they can’t get medical care, immigrants are being sent to a concentration camp in Guantanamo Bay, Trump is planning to level Gaza… but let’s talk about a name on a map.

This isn’t for Trump supporters, though. It’s for Democrats. If you think that the goal is to win over Trump voters, then you’ve already lost. Mocking and demoralizing your opponents is one of the tools from the Trump tool kit, and it’s one that most Democrats are too nice to use.

Calling the schoolyard bully a dick is a small step, but at least it’s in the right direction.

Newsflash: Social network owned by Nazi turns out to have a lot of Nazi content.

The most iconic thing Kamela said, to me, is when she called the republicans weird.

And that wasn’t Kamala. That was Tim Walz. I mean, yes, she said it, but she got that messaging from Walz.

Did you think the same thing when Tim Walz called Trump “weird”?

Oh, you won’t have to worry about that. With RFK Jr. running things, there won’t be a vaccine.

All 3 of those. Yes.

I can’t see the future, and neither can you.

Unfortunately, it’s true: Linux is woke. And DEI. And gay.

We need to get Elon Musk and the DOGE team on this, stat!

Isn’t it obvious? He’s a black Nazi.

No, because this is on a t-shirt, and Nazis didn’t wear t-shirts. Look at all of the photos from Nazi Germany: you’ll see the swastika on medallions, banners, flags…but never on a t-shirt.

Checkmate!

No, of course not. They put out some predictable, finger-wagging statement about how this is insensitive to Jews.

Of course, Ye doesn’t care, but they had to say something.

Perhaps, but he’s also said antisemitic things many times, too.

It’s all real. Sadly.

If people are surprised by this, they haven’t been paying attention.

I don’t know how you get from there to “we’re never going to be able to vote again”. It’s only been 3 fucking weeks and people are running around like it’s the end of the world.
