Jim Beam, owned by Suntory Global Spirits, is one of Kentucky’s biggest bourbon producers.

Kentucky went for tRump by 64.47%. Guess they’re getting what they voted for.

    i love seeing starving children of evil people. Evil children who deserve it because of their evil parents. I’m sorry, very few winners but the rich here. The people who work these are poor people.

      I never said Darwinism was kind or considerate.

        Most sane people don’t celebrate darwinism either, but here we are. People don’t usually see a gazelle baby being ripped in half by a lion and say “We celebrate this!” No, most normal, well-adjusted people to society see that and understand there’s nothing they can do about it and move on. Celebrating darwinism is weird.

          Nobody likes watching the sausage get made, but they still enjoy it. Darwininism is the same: ugly to watch play out, but beautiful in its product.

            Right, watching children suffer because of their parent’s actions is a beautiful product. Sane, well-adjusted people say this daily. Musk was right: Empathy, even that modicum amount for babies being eaten by the leopards their parents voted for, apparently is out of fashion.

            If the price to pay to watch republicans die is watching the babies of republicans die, then that is a price normal society will gladly pay.

            The working poor are literally slaves. The working poor absolutely vote republican. I choose to personally empathize with the children of slaves who love being slaves. Those kids are set up for a life of misery and have very few options in front of them to get them out. Very few people, as we see in this thread, will root for those kids to succeed in life. No one is trying to help those kids have a good life, not even their parents. Certainly not the strangers around them, who would sooner grab a chair and popcorn when they see the leopard approaching the kid, instead of lending a helping hand.

              If Darwinism had properly and rightfully claimed the apartheid-supporting parents of Musk, we wouldn’t have had to deal with the shitstain that is Elon

                So you just don’t understand Darwinism at all? Cool.

                Keep on blaming the poor instead of blaming the rich. Keep on applauding the poor becoming homeless instead of voting for solutions. Go volunteer for once in your life. Do some good for this world, just once please.

        I agree, lets celebrate the leopards getting their faces eaten off. The leopard is actually just another human being who is really rich and owns the means to do the face eating.

          When they share in the suffering they were inflicting on others, yes. It isn’t like them suffering is going to cause additional suffering of innocent people.

          Maybe their kids will learn and end up making better choices.

            You completey misinterpreted my post. I am saying that it is the leopards who we should celebrate getting their faces eaten off. The leopards are the rich and powerful. You are a human being who celebrates the people in poverty, wage slaves, who work these distilleries, and the children of these wage slaves getting their faces eaten by the rich and powerful. You might even celebrate that proudly. I am saying maybe consider celebrating the rich and powerful getting their faces eaten off.

            I agree, the suffering of the children of wage slaves may create good humans. Or maybe their lives are set up to continue worshipping their paycheck provided by their wage lords and renting the home provided by their land lords.

              We should celebrate the suffering of the people who voted for the leopards too. They chose the leopards who bragged about eating faces.

                As long as you are aware you cant tell of those people who work thise distilleries who voted for it or not, and you celebrate it knowing that you cant.

                Youre just a proud asshole. Fair, as long as youre proud youre barely better than a republican,

                Whats even better is youd rather see them suffer than seeing the ceos or shareholders suffer. You seemingly are no ally of the worker, that is getting clearer and clearer.

                  It’s like you can’t read.

                  you cant tell of those people who work thise distilleries who voted for it or no

                  Yeah, that’s why I said:

                  people who voted for the leopards

                  How you leap to me not being mad at the CEOs who also voted for the leopards is some serious mental gymnastics. Good thing you are there to defend Republican voters though, I’m sure they appreciate it.
