Florida man.
That show on HBO is fucking wild
“He’s probably just joking” is something I heard so much over the past few years about things the right has been spewing. THEY ARE NOT JOKING, THEY ARE NEVER JOKING! I don’t know how this is a hard thing to understand.
Fuck, my neighbor says the same every time Trump says something awful. “Trump just talks a lot of shit, he’s just joking.”
Fuck you neighbor, you approved leadership from the guy who encouraged putting kids in cages.
For people who apparently joke so much they sure as shit ain’t funny
This is America.
Don’t catch you slippin’ now
I used to have a boss who like to joke about firing people on his team. He was a nice guy and there was no ill intention behind the jokes, but we eventually had to sit him down and tell him that he couldn’t joke about that stuff because it causes a great deal of stress to people given his position.
Another example is bomb jokes in airports. Aside from just being in poor taste, that’s something that will get you arrested and probably put on a no-fly list for life because it’s an extremely serious matter with no exceptions.
So, even if Trump and his people are just joking about these horrible things, it’s completely unacceptable when it’s entirely believable they would do this stuff and would be in a position to make it happen.
TLDR: There are just some things you don’t fucking joke about.
I joke about firing people sometimes, but I am not a manager and never want to be managing anyone. I only say it to people who know that I have no power over them which is the only time this joke is OK.
I remember a story of a young manager joking about firing people. The older manager pulled him to the side and told him you can’t do that because that can hit people.
The difference is that people who joke about bombs in airports typically don’t actually think bombs in airports are a good idea.
Conservatives: I like [insert obnoxious conservative figurehead] because they tell it like it is, they mean what they say
Also conservatives, sometimes in the same breath: Fake! [obnoxious conservative figurehead] didn’t mean that! Taken out of context! 'Tis but a jape!
Jesus fuck the reality distortion field is strong, it’s like doublethink but without being a clever social trick to survive, it’s just they’re that stupid.
I ‘member when the reality distortion field was just a Steve Jobs and Apple thing.
We were such sweet innocent summer children.
They’ve lied so much and gaslit so much that people don’t know what to believe anymore.
And with all the AI and Russian troll farm bullshit being posted on social media, it’s just poisoning the truth. It’s time to ditch Twitter, Facebook and company.
I keep telling my folks that and that they’ll end up being influenced and manipulated but they refuse because of how convenient it is. And I almost have to keep it because that’s the only way they communicate right now.
Have you seen the video of Led By Donkeys, that’s still online on the Shitter? Shows the timeline of how Elmo & Thiel won the US elections in a TikTok format. I think Elmo will not take it down now that all masks have been took of. He wants his peasants to fear him.
RumbaGPT, how will this play out?
He’s probably just joking and if he’s not, it’s not so bad and if it is that bad it won’t affect you and it if will you deserve it
Worried about making white people uncomfortable is how we got here in this first place.
Wow, next you’re going to say Orange lives don’t matter.
Jokes aside, agreed, tolerating intolerance has little difference from supporting intolerance.
My parents contantly regurgitates propaganda from wechat about how democrats in NYC are letting homess people and migrants ruin everything.
We dont even live in NYC.
I told her to vote Harris and she did (she didn’t even know how to fill out a ballot I had to tell her how to) but then later she said “maybe we shouldn’t vote for democrats” because of the homeless shelters built near Chinese populations in NYC (which is a fair grivence, but I dont see how republicans are gonna solve it better). Abosolutely no independent thought and no critical thinking just parroting whatever the last person said.
She doesn’t understand that the “homeless” or “migrants” are just dogwhistles referring to people like us who maga republicans deem inferior.
How delusional. They’re gonna try to pass all of it.
Like the citizens of Weimar (near concentration camp Buchenwald) said in april 1945: wir haben es nicht gewusst
Yeah that scans
Its only prank bro
