Just imagine if all those bills they talk about helping people with could actually pass! Scary!
He's worried for nothing though, Dems wouldn't help people even if they had the entire Senate. They'd invent opposition their own if it ever ran out.

Leak, Son of Leak:

Scott Morrison pushes to reclassify Covid hospital admissions - with only 51 patients on ventilators despite Australia recording thousands of new cases every day (Daily Mail). Anyone admitted to hospital for any reason such as broken bones who is then found to have Covid is then treated as if they have Covid and added to the numbers, and Scott Morrison, the Daily Mail and Leak are arguing that they should not count.
i.e. :tif:
Wait wait wait. So they're mad that people who come into the hospital and have Covid are being marked down as having Covid?

I always see poo poo like this framed in the sense of "oh well it's okay then". Yes, weight, age, being immunocompromised, etc. can affect your vulnerability to covid and its effects. And yes, a significant percent of covid deaths are in people with these comorbidities.
But... maybe we should still care about people dying even if they're old, or overweight, or had chemotherapy or something? I can't even imagine how many stories or tweets or whatever else I've seen that present comorbidities like they're totally inconsequential, or nobody has them, or if they have them then it's okay if they die. Or that if they die, it's a personal failing because they shouldn't have been old or sick or fat. Even relatively innocuous poo poo like this is feeding into that broader conservative narrative because I know the kind of poo poo Skelley puts out.

It's funny because if the man squad or whatever hadn't broken into the prison to rescue someone who was going to die in an hour anyway then the "mostly peaceful stampede" (gently caress you Ishida) wouldn't have happened. It almost feels intentional but it probably isn't since rescuing 2021 is a Good Thing in Ishida's mind I'm sure, especially since they also ended up rescuing the TERF lady.
The protagonists not only caused that stampede themselves, they were part of it! But ultimately "it's fine when we do it" and all those other people breaking out of prison don't deserve it. The media then falls over itself painting them as victims, even though that same media put them there in the first place.

i racistly assume that every minority with a job didn't actually deserve the job, and it's really unfair to the minorities that the people giving them jobs force me to be racist, i have no choice in the matter
Conservatives loving love this line of thought. They fall back on it all the time. If affirmative action exists anywhere on earth, regardless of whether it's in the form of quotas (which they always assume), or even applicable to the company or institution in question, conservatives will assume that's the reason for any minority getting anything, ever. Hell even if affirmative action didn't exist they'd just say the same thing but blame "white guilt" or "SJW mindsets" or something.
A black person got the promotion instead of me? Obviously it was because they were black. That woman got hired over that man? Must be because she was a woman. Some uppity minority got accepted to the school over our proud straight white Aidynn? That's affirmative action!

They literally always assume it's affirmative action because in their mind a minority can never actually be the better choice. To them, a white person is always the best fit for any job or promotion, they're always the most qualified, because whites are better and to not choose that means that someone put their thumb on the scale. There can be no other reason. It betrays, nakedly, their opinion that whites are always better, and it's hilarious to see Garrison trying to project that as if it were the system's fault.

Not only that, he's trying to speak for minorities in saying "Boy it most really bother them that they can't be sure if they got their job because of affirmative action. It must be terrible for them, if only we got rid of it it would ease their minds for sure." Like they're just straight up implying that even minorities know they're not as good as white people, and so they must feel so guilty about how they've taken a job from a much more deserving white man. Plus the hilarious idea that a black guy would go "I'd rather have not been hired for this job and be homeless and starving than have gotten this job through affirmative action!"
Yeah I'd definitely rather have a slightly uneasy mind than no income. Especially when, according to all actual data on the subject, minorities have a much, much harder time of being hired, not easier, as people like Garrison want to pretend.

Exactly, this is why I wanted to know if the "Biden showered with his daughter" comment was based on something Biden actually said/wrote, because sure they could have just made it up completely, but it would be weird to make up something creepy from out of nowhere when there's plenty of actual things.
Look at how desperately the right clings to literally any scrap they can find. If there was any trace of validity to that it would be headlining Fox News, OANN, etc. for months. If it's something that incriminating and yet it's basically ignored by right wing media, it's probably bullshit.

It's really weird, because the designs are becoming more conservative yet conservatives hate them. If the green M&M was suddenly more sexy, they'd decry it as liberal perversion. But everyone gets toned down a little to be less provocative and suddenly that's liberal, too?

So what, big strong manly genius Trump has literally no power unless he's actively sitting in the most powerful office in the entire loving world? Like he doesn't even have any power or influence from when he was president?* He can't help? And he didn't get anything done while in office, either, and Garrison's whole angle at the time was "you need to re-elect Trump so he can do all those things he promised he would already have done by now. I was disappointed he didn't deliver, but that just means he needs even more time! Failure to make good on one's promise is a sign you should trust them more. THIS time he'll definitely do them."

Maybe he's too busy being "confused" about vaccines to help plucky little America out, but Ben forgave him for that pretty quick.

*This actually feels pretty true though. Trump, in so many ways that matter, feels like he just stopped existing when his term ended. He didn't leverage it into other political roles, his influence is largely "cultural" and most of his political sycophants are chasing his mantra and his goals, without caring at all about the man himself.
