I just found a bespoke crazy person post on Facebook from an old white guy I used to work with at Dell. He was one of the nicest people there and survived a lot of bouts with cancer. I knew he was extremely religious, but I guess I learned something new about him today -



I guess this guy was too mad about the Democrats to realize that this cookie was basically a circular protein bar and that's why it's expensive.

Yea I get those all the time because they're low carb (depending on the variety) and great for during or after work. You don't really eat them for the taste.

I haven't eaten that specific cookie, but Quest is known for making protein bars that actually taste pretty good while still being actually high protein/low carb. Which is partially why their stuff is expensive.

That's just... beyond parody.

The_Donald has been beyond parody since inception because it initially started as making fun of Trump fans and was quickly taken over by Trump fans.

Yeah I've seen goons also pushing back on making fun of Ben Shapiro for being a teeny tiny manlet and like... The funny part isn't that Ben is small. I'm the same tiny size as him. The funny part is how hard he tries to hide it because he is a kapo pushing toxic, traditional masculinity that requires he be A Bear Of A Man to have value.

Similarly with freepers the funny part isn't "lol they need help", it's insisting that they are actually strapping specimens of badass rambotude that are merely days from taking up arms and charging into battle, because wearing a mask at Costco is equally as bad as the Holocaust, maybe worse. (also they definitely never attempted to take up arms and charge into battle that was an antifa false flag ofc)

That said the second part isn't something I personally have to deal with so best to defer to the people hurt by it.

Mocking people espousing toxic worldviews by the standards of their own toxic worldviews isn't as big an own as you think it is.

Now after everything I kinda "Get" Trump worship. He's a rich and powerful dude who says things people agree with and that makes those same people feel a fraction of that wealth and power, but how does anyone get a positive impression of Don Jr? He's a hanger-on who has accomplished nothing and failed even in those rare places his dad has succeeded all while dressing like a Patrick Bateman cosplay. It boggles the mind :psyduck:

Does anyone actually like Jr.? I'm under the impression that his job at this point is just to act as a proxy for his dad at events that can't afford Donny Sr.

And even then he probably is the post popular Trump kid. Chuds hate Ivanka for (((reasons))), both Barron and Tiffany stay out of the spotlight, and I had to think for a solid minute before I could remember Eric Trump.

The guy who claims he fired liberals is also the same guy who claims to have been personally responsible for green lighting the first Iron Man movie so he's about as fraudulent as you can get. The most generous way to treat his post about firing liberals is that he worked for a company whose owner did that once and this delusional idiot imagined himself as the boss in his headcanon.

On the other hand Ike Perlmutter, head of Marvel, is a piece of poo poo and huge Trump doner. So this has a 1% chance of being true, rather than 0%.

Firing all the liberals every four years only to...rehire them or hire new liberals...because you're out of workers now...only to fire them again at the next election makes no sense and sounds dumb as hell.

It could be an Overton window thing, like Freep itself. First he fired everyone who voted for Obama, then he fired anyone who did didn't did vote for Romney, then fired anyone who didn't praise Trump daily, and now all he's left with are Alex Jones watching Anti-Vaxxers.

It's not a thing. The IRS may hire as many as 80,000 *employees* consisting of maybe 10 percent agents (the majority being paper-pushers and the like, same as any large organization) and maybe 1 percent agents with guns.

This was spun by Republican lawmakers and conservative media as 80,000 IRS supersoldiers coming to bust down your door and audit you into an unmarked grave, well aware that none of their followers will check whether that's actually true.

Also the vast majority of those 80,000 employees are replacements for IRS employees that are going to retire in the next 5 years, which is something like half of all current stuff. It's really more like 20,000 extra people net.

MTG may have swatted herself, or not, but I don't think that's the real reason why Kiwifarms is getting shut down. The big reason why KF is getting shut down is actually Keffals, a transwoman who has been targeted by them for a long time, running a huge campaign against them.

The actual last straw was when she fled to Ireland to escape doxxing and KF found her again and started making bomb threats to a bunch of places in Belfast.

The thing is that KiwiFarmers are the type of psychopath that falls into reactionary politics precisely because it gives them an excuse to go after people and don't really care about the ideology beyond that. They can absolutely go after someone on their "side", especially if it's a big target, because gathering scalps is the actual point.

E: This is assuming MTG didn't just fake all of this.

What effect would it even have on Pelosi’s re-election? Is there some challenger about to beat her this time or something? They’re just grasping at current events to try to blame the victim.

Pelosi is one of the faces of the national Democratic party. It's less about her re-election or even their usual tendency to deflect blame, and more about not making as a whole Democrats look sympathetic.

And about that first one there...I thought Freepers were all in on the evil Jewish globalists controlling the news and poo poo? So why would that same media report these casualty numbers, which stand at about 36,000? Wouldn't a Zionist Globalist Cabal actually underreport these numbers or ID them all as Hamas terrorists?

Because they hate Muslims more than Jews, it's not much more complicated than that.
