    Are we actually asking if an utterly vile, demonstrably corrupt, entirely self-serving psychopath who’s overseeing a genocide, a violent incremental land grab and repeated attempts to provoke wars with four different neighbors has “finally lost America?”

    Every time I think this timeline couldn’t possibly be more fucked up, it shocks me yet again.

        Maybe to a psychopath. Any negative quality can be considered a slur by someone possessing it. A selfish person doesn’t like being called selfish, I suspect. I’m still going to call spades spades.

          The word is literally just Greek for mentally ill person. If you hate ps*chopaths, I’m going to assume you hate people for having depression, anxiety, or autism.

            What part of my entirely English sentence gave you the impression I was speaking Greek? Should we go back to PIE roots to find some more hidden bigotry?

              The word doesn’t mean anything in English. I assumed you were speaking Greek because otherwise you’d be babbling like a baby.

              Oh, well, it is a slur against disabled people in some dialects of English, I suppose.
