Setting aside their creepy praise for Hitler for a minute, the rest of that message is still pretty telling. They seem to think that any protest by educated people is a protest against the United States. They don't understand that it's possible to love your country and recognize when something is unjust and needs to change.
Police kill a black man and people protest? They must hate America.
Gotta love the party of "small government". Not only is it small enough to fit in your bedroom, apparently it's also small enough to fit in your grocery store's HR department.
“The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve,” according to the memo...
Jesus Christ it's just scary word salad with these people. I guess it always has been, but God damn it's so infuriating.
Look at this nice capitol visitor squatting over Nancy Pelosi's desk and hoovering up a pile of shit straight into his asshole. What a nice and thoughtful hero.
Yeah, tying back to the original post about whether money is real or made up - that ability to come up with abstract concepts out of asses is what allows us to cooperate on such grand levels.
You might only personally know 100 people that you reasonably trust. But you don't need to personally know and trust someone in order to sell something to them. We all sort of magically agree that money has value and it allows us to transact with almost anyone.
Same thing with governments. A government isn't a real thing that you find in nature, but by believing in the concept of it, we're able to (somewhat) unify millions or billions of people to get shit done.
I guess what I'm saying is, don't discount the power of something just because it's not "real". Making up imaginary shit has got our species pretty damn far!
You should check out the book Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind. Humans have this amazing ability to make up all sorts of crazy shit, but it has huge advantages in our ability to organize.
One on one, a chimp would easily beat up a human. Ten on ten, the chimps still have an advantage. But 200 on 200, humans would win no contest. Our ability to make shit up allows us to coordinate with huge numbers people that we don't even know, which is extraordinarily rare.
Kind of true if you just read news headlines as well. Lots of sane washing occurs around Trump where he'll say something absolutely batshit insane and the media picks it apart to make it sound like a cohesive policy.
Yeah all these media sources keep saying things like "a day after Musk used an arm gesture, twice, that resembled the Roman salute adopted by the Nazis."
It's blatantly obvious that they're afraid of getting sued. Kind of like instead of saying someone lied, they'll soften it up to say they made a statement that some fact checkers may disagree with.
Yeah didn't he just pardon 1,500 of them? I realize that not all of them actually got the chance to kill a cop that day, but some did and most seemed to be trying real hard to.
Yeah, from people who have been crying foul about Trump for years now. Unfortunately his supporters just don't give a shit. Why aren't they asking Republican senators and representatives about the president launching his own currency? They're the dumb fucks that should be offering up backlash but aren't.
Yeah Trump is a massive douche - but this wasn't him saying they rigged the election. You can tell he's saying that in his first term he was sad he wouldn't be president in 2026, but then accused his opponents of rigging the 2020 election, then saying he won in 2024 so he'll be president in 2026.
Again, Trump is a massive douche. I hate that I even have to come across as defending him here. I'm just saying this fuckknuckle has done enough real shit that we don't need to focus on shit that isn't real.
Disgusting that this happened, let alone that people are cheering this on. I feel terrible for the police officers that were assaulted that day defending the capitol, only for their assaulters to be celebrated when they were pardoned.
