Right wingers are loving dumb. They’re literally less intelligent.

Conservatives don't have a monopoly on bad grammar, but they're industry leaders on people who put spaces before commas or use them as ellipses. It's the pettiest possible thing to care about, but it drives me crazy regardless.

Don't forget about ending every single sentence with ellipses... That's one of the most annoying things for me... Like what do they think they're even trying to convey when they do this...

This combined with using "hum" for "hmm" is like a stiletto straight through my eyeball

Yknow, like, "Gun control... hummm... when did you ever see a gun pull it's own trigger..."

I feel like I need to wash my hands after typing like that tbqh

There was an episode of The FPlus I listened (can't remember if it's a recent one or I just recently listened to it) where they pointed out how it's actually harder to read "schizophrenic text" when it's not written with seemingly random punctuation and capitalization. Just seemed somewhat relevant.

I highly suggest the stuff that Prestor Jane has on her blog on the subject. Seems like the punctuation could have actual meaning in the language they're thinking in the head that we're slightly picking up on without realizing it.


I wonder if I can get a masters in linguistics of schizophrenic english speakers, really round out my useless accreditation. Shoot for a doctorate of holistic medicine.

Where are the NRA/2nd Amendment nuts supporting the rights of a militia to defend themselves against a corrupt government? Seems like a lot of imagery from Honk Kong/Chile/Bolivia could be repurposed as “if they had guns, they’d be winning” marketing material. Obvs that’s not true but that wouldn’t stop the NRA.

At least Hucks is fully aware that doing this will absolutely push for higher profits for the company. It's almost as if more people will by your products if you don't openly support bad groups. Funny that.

Yeah, a lot of people seem content to leave it at 'funding anti LGBT groups' when the true context is 'funding groups who want to make being LGBT punishable by death'.
