Rebookmarked this thread after being unable to read it for 4 years. How I've missed it...

But seeing these same idiots say the exact same poo poo after 8 years of "we are now at war" under Obama is just so pathetic. You have to suspect that almost all of them have no families left.

It seems she had been in a care facility for a long time, apparently neurological damage from a previous stroke.

I know I'm a better person than these ghouls because I actually felt really bad reading this. These are the scum of the earth but I can't help but pity anyone going through the long, agonizing goodbye of losing a spouse like this. That is legit sad and I feel for the guy, even knowing he's my enemy.

In any cult, there are levels of devotion. There are people who will sit and listen, donate time and money, or even go out and preach for the cult. Then there are people who will let the cult leader gently caress their wives.

Freep is the first group. The_Donald is the second.

Generally if someone says they are in the "military" it's because they are in the air force or navy. Soldiers and marines will almost always claim their branch while airmen and sailors like to let people make assumptions.

I'm guessing the number of Freepers who served in combat arms is extremely low. It's always the air force supply people who end up driving the lifted trucks with molon labe stickers.

Freep likes the idea of troops but does not like actual troops themselves.

As has been pointed out, they don't like the idea either. In their fevered fantasies where they rise up and become warrior patriots, the people they'd be killing are American soldiers. They don't give a single gently caress about the idea of troops. The only thing they give a poo poo about is themselves and their desire to see people they hate suffer. That's it. Everything else is secondary. They are fascists in every sense. Everything they do or say makes absolute sense in that context.

Sociopaths can still emulate human feelings for babies and animals. Those attachments are not meaningful in the context of empathy. Hitler for example was a huge dog person and his GSD Blondie was his best friend.

The point being that liking dogs does not mean a person has a moral compass or is capable of being a good person. That Trump notoriously hates animals really brings into focus how big a piece of poo poo he is.

This isn't too weird, people really really loving hate phonies and liars.

On the other hand, Donald Trump is the most popular Republican of all time among Republicans. And he's also the biggest phony and liar.

Also, Ted Cruz is not honest. He went on and on about how Trump was a liar and a danger to the country and then jumped right in line to lick his rear end for 4 years. There are no honest Republicans. They are all lying pieces of poo poo. AOC, Ilhan Omar, Talib, and Bernie are pretty much the only semi-honest people in national politics.

My favorite thing about Freep is the never ending, constant reveal that they are complete loving cowards. They are always just on the verge of doing something, but they never, even decades later, have done poo poo. "All Trump has to do is say the word" hahahaha and what rear end in a top hat? What the gently caress are any of these obese 70 year olds going to do?

C'mon, you know exactly what she thought, every word she speaks and her tone of voice and body language and just the raw fact of her existence make it blindingly obvious. Her entire worldview and all her previous life experiences taughter her that being maced is what happens to Black thugs and the police are her own personal on-call private guard, and she's somewhat shocked to have that mental framework shattered.
What's funny is I couldn't agree more with that sentiment, but for the exact opposite reasons it was meant.

There are stills showing that she had half an onion stuffed in that towel. The whole thing was an attempted grift.

Also, it's endlessly entertaining to see that these fucks still haven't settled on a coherent narrative for the attempted insurrection. It was Soros-backed leftists / true patriots / antifa / gods army / misguided and misled saps

There isn't an "outcry" because the video starts in the middle of an ongoing fight and no one was actually hurt. It's quite possible the white woman did something to provoke or instigate the fight and just because a fight is one sided doesn't mean anything criminal happened. These people concern trolling about it are just racists, that's it. They see a black woman winning a fight against a white woman and their racist brains start pumping dopamine. Context and analysis, as well as questions of ethics, are for non-racists. Racists don't get to engage in discussions like these because they are only using them as cover to spread racism.

I think it's a question of whether or not highlighting the hypocrisy of the Right is a worthwhile expenditure of energy. On the one hand, there are a hundred million chuds out there that are completely lost and nothing will sway them. On the other, there are a few people that don't like the hypocrisy and can be persuaded. Also, it's reasonable to make the point that just completely ceding all rhetorical ground to the Right is a dangerous gambit.

I don't think there's a correct answer.
