By this incredibly dumb logic, a vote for for a third party is a vote for Biden.

Thats what I'm saying. It doesn't matter who we vote for. America is doomed. This election will just determine how hard we get hosed and when.

Biden is objectively worse for the future of America than Trump. Biden will lead to an even worse Trump.

My dad posted that image and when one of his friends called him out for it, he claimed that there were two guys making out in front of him recently. Supposedly, he was minding his own business when they started asking him "What the hell are you looking at????" threateningly.

The course of the Republican party is already set. It's not like four more years of Trump lets racists and fascists blow off their steam and then go back home and say "well we got a good 8 year run. let a bunch of kids die in camps, killed +160k by incompetence and totally borked institutions meant to safeguard rights we're good forever". Four more years of a Trump presidency is a pretty well-known factor, since we have the past four years to gauge what he'll do.

A post and then it follows by a prison guard arguing that they deserve to die regardless of if they are innocent or not. The guy arguing that innocent people get killed supposedly worked for the CIA in the past.

I like the line about mental health and abusive households. Zero doubt in my mind that anybody who genuinely reposts this doesn't give the least amount of a poo poo about mental health or domestic violence in any meaningful way. It's just there for plausible deniability. (Think Nazi Germany).

I stopped spending much time on it a few months ago. It's been an enormous help to my emotional state.

I made the mistake of logging in last night, read a couple of idiotic anti mask screeds, felt stupid, made a quick "I'm alive, you can text or call me if you need poo poo!" post...and will be logging off again unless something big happens.

I'm still amazed by how many people over the age of 40 will believe any damned thing in the world is a verbatim quote, so long as it's pasted over someone's portrait.

One coworker on my first day at a (university!) job showed me some bullshit Pelosi quote about undocumented immigrants having and deserving more rights than US citizens, pasted over her portrait.

Guy honestly just didn't care when I told him it wasn't real, because it's not about the information at all. It's mostly a tribal or partisan icebreaker social test.

If only they would use how memes make them “feel” towards actual empathy. I mean they only give a poo poo about themselves so they should just ignore everything outside of their bubble since 99% of it does not effect them.

I've just stopped being diplomatic about this stuff entirely, since unplugging from Facebook years ago all I see for these things is documentation like Snopes and this thread, with the occasional bleed-through into real life when a gullible social media user spouts off in person.

I had to explain Pizza Gate not being real to someone, about two weeks ago. He thought it was a catch-all term for pedo celebrity scandals. Offered the NYmag Intelligencer breakdown of Epstein's book of names when he was trying to figure out whether (Democrat-supporting) celebrities XYZ were part of all that, but the guy would rather watch twenty minutes of YouTube commentary than spend ten reading an accurate synopsis.


At least he's now aware of the full batshit scope of Q conspiracy world, whose satanic cannibal furniture slave molesters (conveniently being about 80% comprised of mainstream Democrat-supporting celebrities and politicians) have turned him away from that path by dumping it on him all at once, rather than letting someone else feed it to him incrementally.

Edit: it helps that the actual Pizza Gate gunman is from my state, and his imaginary basement rescue mission happened YEARS ago.

It all folds under its weight to even the slightest scrutiny, if you took even a few minutes to think about it you’d realize how dumb it is. They’d rather just accept the stupid poo poo as reality cause it’s easier to blame things on people you don’t like instead of having to deal directly with the beliefs you have held as true for so long. It’s pure intellectual laziness.

You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons.. Hundreds of rabid, m...essy, mean raccoons have overtaken your basement.. You want them gone immediately!.. You call the city and 4 different exterminators, but nobody can handle the job.. But there is this one guy, and he guarantees to get rid of them, so you hire him.. You don't care if the guy swears, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has a plumber's crack, you simply want those raccoons gone!..
You want your problem fixed!.. He's the guy.. He's the best!

Here's why we want Trump: Yes, he's a bit of a jerk; Yes, he's an egomaniac; but we don't care!.

The country is a mess because politicians suck, the Republicans and Democrats can be two-faced and gutless, and illegals are everywhere.. We want it all fixed!.. We don't care that Trump is crude, we don't care that he insults people, we don't care that he's been married 3 times, we don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, we don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist.. This country became weak and bankrupt, our enemies were making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegals, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo, and Hasid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; "AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED”.. And Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want.

We're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, sick of the Republican Party, and sick of illegals!.. We just want this thing fixed.. Trump may not be a Saint, but we didn’t vote for a Pope.. We voted for a man who doesn't have lobbyist money holding him back, a man who doesn't have political correctness restraining him.. We all know that he has been very successful, he’s a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's also NOT a politician, NOT a cowardly politician.!

And he says he'll fix it.. And we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong, or looked at and called a liar.. Also, we don't care if the guy has bad hair.. We just want those raccoons gone, out of our house, NOW!!!

You are welcome to copy/paste/share this.. Thousands of people who haven't voted in 25 years seem to be getting involved.. And the more people get this message, the more that will understand why Trump was elected..The raccoons have got to go!!!YoWhy I will vote for Trump.
