  • Grovel and beg for forgiveness after actively cutting NOAA budget? Personally drive a truck full of food/water/clothing for people displaced? Literally just show up and offer your condolences to your contituents (regardless of how obviously fake it’d be)?

    Like, basic human things you should be doing to show that you care about the people you supposedly represent? Vs: fuck it, I’m on vacation, they’ll still be dead when I get home.

    Guess what: politicians for all their grand standing about lazy entitled welfare recipients work about 130 total days a year, he can go see the parthenon some other time.






  • How about instead of turning this issue into class warfare as well, they just point out that CORPORATIONS are driving 90% of global emissions. Said corporations love studies like this because then they can blame the population by spewing such nonsense as “well if you didn’t buy our product we wouldn’t create the emissions”.

    There you have it folks, if you just stopped eating food, global warming would be solved. It couldn’t POSSIBLY be that governemnts should create things like emissions standards to drive down pollution.

    What’s that 70% of global emissions come from just 100 companies? Nope, it’s the richest 10% of the population that need to fix this, not the corporations (which in turn would punish the .1% who make all their wealth off those companies). Joe Shmoe and his wife making a combined $100k/year need to stop driving their car and ride that bus, that’ll SURELY fix the problem.

  • I know it’ll come across as an unpopular opinion, but some of them just need their ass kicked. Literally went to high school with a kid who was insufferable, a prick to everyone. One day he started bullying one of my buddies who proceeded to beat the shit out of him. He told his football coach he ran into a mailbox on his bike when he had to explain his face looking like it did. After that he was the nicest kid ever - he realized “being tough” wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. I guarantee a few of these kids just need to get punched in the face one time and they’ll start rethinking the “alpha male” ideology.


  • And the propaganda you’re trying to feed is straight from Russia with love through a “Russian filter”.

    Ignoring the fact you’re a troll: one of these countries was invaded, and is taking every measure possible to secure their continued existence. One of these countries invaded a sovereign nation, and is wasting citizen lives for no reason beyond an insane, expansionist dictator’s whims.

    These are not the same, no matter how many times you try to spew the false equivalency.

    Can we not pretend to be as dumb as the flat-earth tumpers?

    Her family came out and stated she suffered from epileptic seizures, and believed that was cause of death. There’s literally nothing worse than the family having closure, and being continually harassed about the death of a loved one because of psychotic internet conspiracy theorists. There is no basement in this pizza parlor.

    If you just took a shower and your balls are still “dirty” your problem isn’t the order in which you dry yourself.

    If you can take a shower like a functional adult, it turns out skin is skin and wiping water off your ballsack is fundamentally identical to wiping water off the back of your hand.


  • Did someone prevent you from voting in the primaries? Or running in the primaries if you didn’t like the people running?

    The candidates don’t just magically appear on the ballot. What you’re complaining about is “the majority of people didn’t want something as progressive as I did so it was duress”.

    “I’m not getting my way so it’s not fair” resonates about as much as “the election was stolen because my guy didn’t win”. Do you have the right to not vote at all? Sure. But then don’t say a fucking thing when the world around you is collapsing becuase the other guy is inifnitely worse than what you were too proud or stubborn to vote for.

    Progressives who refuse to vote for a moderate because “compromise is a four letter word” are as bad or worse than the tea party morons who started the republican party down the path of fascism.
