Do we really want that smarmy insufferable no talent shrew to be press secretary insider for 3.7 hours before being fired by a tangerine incel and his crooked brain V Chip?
I have no idea how Americans can stand being represented like this. It’s one long continuous series of insults heaped upon injury.
Many of us can’t and have been working hard to try and change it. Unfortunately, we didn’t spend our money on enough guns and ammo to nuke a country and aren’t backed by more wealth than the gdp of some nations.
I dare say France has - once again - recently demonstrated that you don’t necessarily need either of those things.
And once again, comparing France to America is a dumb take ignoring major differences in basically everything about the countries.
Yeah, France actually has a sense of self worth among the populace.
Or, you know, the fact that France is smaller, has less people, more social safety nets, and doesn’t have a militarized trigger-happy police force.
Don’t forget the US has the nasty combination of a sizeable demographic of right-wing gun owners who’d love an excuse to use them, alongside news media who’d frame the protesters as an evil force that’s burning down entire cities.
You know what? I agree. There really is no point in comparing the two.
France is not the US. The US frequently kills protestors, even peaceful ones, and has literally bombed entire city blocks in the past. That’s not to mention the vast legal, demographic, and geographic differences.
The US government is depraved. It is not comparable to France.
Imagine growing up raised by idiots. In a region where you’re surrounded by idiots at all times. Then toss in constant propaganda on TVs everywhere you go. Then all the idiots around you telling you to download apps that only idiots use to repost propaganda fed to them by evil people who know they can manipulate you and your friends and family because you’re all idiots.
That’s basically how we are where we are.
Bread and circuses. They’re running out of bread though, so just trying to lean on circuses.
You mean with the best president ever who has done the best things ever and everybody says so? /s
You must be speaking Calvin ‘silent cal’ Coolage who had the capacity to keep his yap shut for more than 30 whole seconds at a stretch.
This is noise. Ignore it and focus on bigger things.
Keys are being jangled that have never been jingled before
I find the biggest indicator of this is the “Daily Mail” logo in the top left.
Idiocracy isn’t supposed to be an instruction manual, but apparently conservatives are already that fucking dumb and we’re stuck in this car with them falling off the cliff.
When someone posts Daily Mail, it’s worth reminding that regardless of the truth of the article, the source is absolute shit. They breathlessly report every little thing like it’s the end of the world, and ignore the real issues. It’s a distraction.
Enjoy it if you want, but i’m going to protest its posting every time I see it.
Not only that, but this is basically just an article laughing about sexual harassment.
‘My closing argument is NICE ASS!’ -Totally definitely not a creepy rapist.
Well his closing argument in 2024 was Haitian immigrants eating pets and concepts of plans and it worked.
Some of these comments are bordering just as mysoginist as trump, just with different politics. Way to go, Lemmy.
Lemmy does have a serious misogynist problem. It’s a male dominated space with a lot of users from other, already misogynistic places, which creates a heavy concentration of it.
A lot of the misogyny isn’t acted upon, either, because mods and admins here sometimes share the same views. It’s no wonder women don’t feel comfortable here. The few that do stay, such as Velma, have to constantly battle misogyny. It’s fucking gross.
The world has a serious misogynist problem.
Absolutely. It’s just interesting how a lot of people here can call themselves leftists and in the same breath say something misogynistic and get away with it.
They’re ignorant. Its hard to wrap your head around without going to college or having an educated person leading. no one grew up with it being an okay thing to talk about, and they’ve fucked the last decades generation of men’s heads hard-core.
Reminder that much of Lemmy is people who failed to fit in elsewhere or got banned for being who they are. For few months now I actually see Lemmy as more toxic community than reddit.
this is what the US president is so horny about on his compaignsHaha, gross.
Trump talks about asses so much now.
I remember when he was talking about well hung golfers.
What a fucking clown show
They’re higher than a motherfucker!
This isn’t even the first time conservatives have elected a dumbfuck celebrity to the presidency. And we’re 0 for 2 on fucking stopping them from doing it. This shithole needs to get its act together.
i wouldn’t really call nicki minaj star power; you have to have talent to be considered a star.
White House Pussy
Surprised he had time considering he spends so much of his appearances glazing the asses of Republican men.
I like how she threw on the blonde hair and blue eyes for the right wingers
