  1. I think it was about 8 years ago when debating MAGA types I just cut to the chase of what I suspected and asked straight up "Do you believe in the Golden Rule?" and got answers that ranged from "what is the Golden Rule?" to "the Golden Rule isn't in the Bible!" I've lived neck deep in rural, conservative culture for the last 20 plus years. The problem isn't HOW doing the right thing is implemented by left policies when the right thing isn't even explicitly agreed upon or that it's a left problem they don't relate effectively to people with whom they don't share a hyper self-interested, instant gratification value system with. It's a much larger problem of having to persuade a significant chunk of the voting populace that grew up thinking Gordon Gecko saying "greed is good" (and reiterated countless times over thru conservative media) was the vanguard of a new morality to reconsider and change their value system.
  2. EAT IT is your solution to everything, you fat fuck.
  3. And just to clarify, when someone is killed by cops, kinda important.
  4. My answer to that question would be "I don't know".
  5. No it's not. I'm earnestly asking you a question.
  6. George Floyd protests were everywhere in this country (and world-wide). They violated norms. Sure, not like a Boogaloo Boi murdering 2 LEOs, but at least one cheesecake (and probably more) were stolen from a Cheesecake Factory. What do you think the longterm effects of that were on American public opinion?
  7. Again, no messaging expert, but I think it's critical Dems proactively establish a tenant that runs counter to established GOP orthodoxy that they are forced to react to. Something along the lines of *podium voice* We The People. Those are the first 3 words of our Constitution. What does that mean? That means me, you, your father, your mother, your sister, your brother, your friends, your neighbors, your coworkers, all of us. WE'RE the government. We're not ruled by one or a select few. We're not ruled by an oligarchy. We're not ruled by an aristocracy. Big government? YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT WE'RE A BIG GOVERNMENT. 340 MILLION OF US AND WE WILL FIRE YOUR ASS WHEN YOU START STEALING THE INVESTMENTS WE'VE MADE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!! KILL WHITEY!!!! OK, scratch that last part, just spitballin', but something that along those lines.
  8. *Sigh* I was literally arguing with you that Dems since the Reagan Revolution's reset of the Overton Window have been presenting themselves as "GOP Lite" in reaction to your "can you blame them?" characterization of significant portions of more or less middle and working class electorate voting against their own self-interests and seeing little difference between the 2 parties, right before the election- the most opportune time to save the Republic. Again, I'm no messaging expert and it's not that I definitely disagree with you, but drawing distinctions between your party and the fascist opposition party in as far messaging goes while making room for praise of the Reagan seed that ultimately brought us here has been the 50 year Democrat playbook that everyone is so critical of.
  9. Boom! Porn ban asploded!
  10. Or Hegseth's TikTok account.
  11. You gonna get raped mid-poop by a gang from the furry convention.
  12. Here's where Ron uses his charisma super powers to unfuck himself. Or his I'm A Republican, So What? super powers. Either way.
  13. Trump has watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory in the last 24 hours.
  14. Hey, what do want from me? A miracle? Nobody's perfect."
  15. He ruins everything
  16. This just illustrates how in touch Trump is with America. I fondly remember my sisters on Christmas day opening 12 gift wrapped dolls from Santa. What's in your stocking there? 8 more dolls???!!!! Wow! Time to go over Aunt Norma's. Goddam 17 more fucking dolls!
  17. And do we need to spoil our spawn with a buttery cut of mutton on Christmas day? Would not a stick suffice?
  18. I didn't want to do it. Trump made me do it.
  19. ...and according to Trump, he's just doing what "his lawyers" tell him to do, as alpha males are wont to do.
  20. Getting a reaction out of people is an exclusive talent shared by everyone. Babies do this without even trying. Spiking the football because people reacted is like taking a victory lap over taking a breath.
  21. Evolution has hardwired a negativity bias into our DNA. Use it, because unlike litterboxes in bathrooms, the threat from billionaires turning America into a neo-feudal society of techno scam artists is real.
