Hahaha. I thought that was a Gary Peterson type photoshop until I saw the video just below. The kids are dreading that the groupchats they're part of might leak. Or maybe they're the ones that leaked this latest batch.
On Facebook several years ago, I had a lot of back home type friends who were always going on about "everyone gets a trophy" and how it's making today's kids and our country soft. They didn't seem to remember that in the leagues we played in as youths in the 80s everyone got a fucking trophy, the same god damn trophy whether they were on the championship team or last place. Same whether they were the best player in the league or the worst. Yet somehow in 2018, they were a bunch of old school hard asses who never ever got a participation trophy.
Imagine being an Air Force general and NSA director and getting fired on the say so of fucking Laura Loomer. The left wing equivalent of Laura Loomer doesn't exist as a public figure, much less would that person ever have any influence over staffing of the highest ranks of the fucking US military.
This point about the scale of wealth inequality should be hammered constantly. If a million dollars is a mile, a billion is a 1000 miles, roughly Austin to Chicago. Even back in the Reagan "greed is good" 80s, we despised Randolph & Mortimer Duke and Gordon Gekko who were fictional, more likable, and broke ass motherfuckers compared to Elon and Zuckerberg. I never even hear our oligarchs referred to as greedy. Let no one escape knowing how the wealth of Bezos compares to an Amazon worker or Elon's compared to the park ranger or veteran at the VA whose jobs are being cut. Also, there's only 800 billionaires in the US and these assholes have this much influence?
Saw this on Surly somewhere and it's one of the best demonstrations of wealth inequality I've seen.
Years ago on Surly, I was posting something about the Stormy Daniels case. Before I posted, I checked the spelling of Stormy making sure it wasn't ie or ee at the end. You know, because I'm careful enough to make sure I spell the porn star's name right as I post what was probably a joke under the name of an anthropomorphic, washed up sitcom actor horse from a cartoon on a Longhorn sports focused website. Sometimes, when I look at Venmo, I'll see the stupid shit people leave out in the open such as what are most likely weed purchases and wonder how in the fuck they're not more careful to make those transactions private. Of course, none of us are god damn national security advisors.
My handy guide to right wing humor reminds me that there's no point looking for meaning in the joke beyond it's something sexist, racist, or otherwise deliberately distasteful. I think that's supposed to be Rosie O'Donnell. The joke is he's suggesting Rosie is overweight and unattractive and he thinks the left is triggered by this because he's a moron who thinks (because dumb shit like this is constantly suggested to him) that for us the sun rises and sets out of Rosie's ass every day. Like we're ever mindful of Rosie O'Donnell, but of course most of us aren't even entirely sure who that it. Also, Rosie has nothing to do with St Patrick's Day so don't go searching for a connection there. Inside this dimwit's head: "durr durr Rosie's fat and not hot durr durr they'll be so offended durr durr woke! durr durr gubmint durr durr."
Non Maga needs to hammer these kinds of points. Always context the cuts of popular programs vs. the obscene wealth and excesses of the people making the cuts.
Telling someone else to "touch grass" at 2 in the morning then you're back here at 5am. Way to live it up and take full advantage of your oh so cherished freedom while calling out others about wasting their lives on the internet.
Ah, yes. The brave men of maga calling the Ukrainians crybabies and cowards after 3 years of repelling a full scale invasion by a far larger military that's bent on genocide. Whatever it takes to twist themselves into supporting the soft, moronic, criminal, serial sex abusing, draft dodging conman. And because they care so much about the debt.
This guy has a net worth in the hundreds of millions. For decades, people with far less have given him their money because they feel he's trustworthy and that he's a champion of the teachings of Jesus. Really, what chance do we have?
