I dont know. On one hand we have cunts wearing red hats and chatting shit about “men in dresses”. And on the other we have blue haired land whales chatting shit about how being “male and pale is stale”. I think everyone is just a cunt at this point. And while we dont have an easily recognisable name for it like “nazi”, the other side of the CULTure wars would be every bit the horror show the red hat wearing pricks would be if left unchecked in power.
Yeah, thats right. Im both sidesing this mother fucker. I dont care what tragic cult script youve got lined up, ready to go. The fact is, anyone who takes part in the culture wars is a cunt. No ifs, no ands, no buts. Red hats and pick up trucks, or blue hair and septum rings. Youre all toxic and cringe.
Bernie Sanders: Total Blue Haired Land Whale. Can hardly hear him talk over the clank of all his facial piercings. Trynna give everyone healthcare and stop the tidal wave of money rushing out of the pockets of working people into the ever expanding hoards of billionaires. So problematic.
Do you think the MAGAs consider Trump, Hegseth, or these chucklefuck MAGAlings as the worst of them or the best of them? Pit the right’s “Best” against the left’s “Best” and you make sir/madam Sparkly Fart’s point.
A lot of them probably do, yes. Doesnt make them correct. And we arent talking about MAGA, we are talking about Republicans. I know thats REAL fucking hard for your cult warped brain to see the distinction, but its there.
The obvious example is John McCain. When his supporters were chatting shit about Obama, he shut that shit down. Told it like it was, that he was a good man that he just happened to disagree with on some issues. Those kinds of republicans are still around. But you dont care about that, because youre the same time of inbred fuck up that he had to shut down when they were chatting shit about Obama. You just dont see it, because youre head is filled with cult nonsense. Just like the MAGA brain rot is filled with their cult nonsense.
Newsflash for you, chief. You are the thing you hate.
I’ll grant you that McCain was probably the highwater mark for the GOP in recent history, but I think its pretty clear how MAGA views him today (I think “loser” and “RINO” were bandied about pretty often)
Take a look out your window at who is running this shitshow, and believe them when they tell you who they are, or keep pretending it’s everyone else who is brainwashed. Your call, “chief”.
It’s pretty telling that your example of a prominent non-MAGA type republican died 7 years ago. What Republicans support is MAGA. Otherwise they could hold MAGA people responsible for their clear crimes and moral failings.
That was my obvious example. So I wouldnt be called a liar, because him doing that is widely known about. Whats telling is that you just did the every thing Im accusing you of, and you think its fucking fine.
I wouldnt know who the worst or best is, I just know that being republican doesnt make you a nazi anymore than being a democrat does. And thats really my point. All too often we see the worst example of something, anything, and one side of the dumb as fuck culture war grabs on to it for dear life like its an example of the whole group.
I mean, people do make the connection just being white makes you a nazi. Do you agree with that? Does being American make you fat and thick? Does being British mean you dont know what toothpaste tastes like? Does being German mean you make gay scat porn? Does being a woman mean you want kids? Does being a man mean you like power drills? Does being gay mean you dont like sports? Doest being straight mean you do like sports?
I want people held to account for their own actions. Thats it. Thats the world I want to live in. Not this bastion of virtue, where everyone is just a cunt based on whatever other cunt they share something with.
And Id also argue that Bernie was a poor example. As that man is not part of the culture wars. Hes left wing in a country that has two right parties. He didnt celebrate the murder of Charlie Kirk, and instead spoke out against it. The culture warriors are nothing like Bernie. They are cult followers, looking to gain up arrows across various platforms to gain the illusion of self worth. Right, left, doesnt matter. Everything one side says about the other, can be said about both. Cancel culture, both sides do that. Rape and death threats on twitter? Both sides do that. It really doesnt matter what side you are on, if you are in the culture wars, youre already part of the problem.
I really don’t see it this way. Sorry. The right wants culture wars to be done by government, the left wants culture to move towards a more fair and free society where people aren’t held back from opportunities because of biases around their identity. These are very different.
And, no one in power on the left talks like those who in power on the right. The President has called half the country terrorists. Its insane and so much more one sided than you are saying.
I know you dont. Thats the problem. “The right” wants straight white males in all their tv shows, and “the left” wants straight white males to never be in any tv show again. Anyone who isnt part of the culture wars, just wants a good tv show/movie to watch.
The issue with American politics is that you think you have a left wing party fighting for you. You dont. You never did. What you have is one party running rings around everyone else because they are going hard into the social media aspect of things. The dems arent. They are still holding the pocket of hollywood, or at least being seen to. This is the same hollywood that keeps on trying to lecture us on being good people, while ignoring sexual assaults because it helps their career. People, arent buying that shit any more.
Then on top of that, you have cunts like Nancy Pelosi who are holding back people like Bernie and AOC who actually are the future and change that Americans have been screaming out for, for over a decade. Just last year that woman fucked AOC out of a committee seat that would have put her in great place to push for a presidential run. Maybe even as soon as 2028 but 100% for 2032. But because AOC wont play the game for the party leaders or their rich donors, she got robbed of a seat that was vacated for her. The plan was that the 60 year old guy would step down so that the seat could be filled by a someone young with new fresh ideas. But once Nancy found out, she made sure that the seat went to a 75 year old dude with fucking cancer. And he fucking died 4 months later! So instead of a 35 year old women in her prime that is, whether they like it or not, the future of the party. They inserted a dying fucking man. And you know what? They STILL wont let her have the fucking seat.
Now go back to 2016. America is screaming out for change. On one side you have Trump, chatting shit about draining the swamp. On the other side you have Hilary… Who is part of the fucking swamp that everyone wants rid of. Bernie, who got fucked over by the DNC, would have beat Trump with ease. Even fucking Republicans were saying they would vote for Bernie. But no, because he wasnt going to bend the knee. If it wasnt for the Dems rigging that shit, the world would NEVER have known what a Trump presidency looks like.
Now fast forward to 2020. Theres something like, 17 fucking dems up for the nom. It was a crazy number. But every single one of them, had a free healthcare plan for Americans. Including Harris, which is something to remember. Pelosi, told them all to take a big step back so that Biden got the nom. The bullshit they spun was that he was the only one who could be Trump. The actual issue? He was the only one that didnt have a free healthcare plan. He was happy to leave things fucked.
Now its 2024, Biden is fucked in the head because hes old as shit. And Harris is just given the nom. But did you notice? No free healthcare plan anymore. It was replaced with some watered down shit about lowering insulin costs. And was she talking change? Nope. She was getting the hollywood fuck wits to rap about all the shit people cant stand about modern hollywood, while she went around business people making herself look like the perfect republican.
If you wanna tell me that MAGA is full cunts, Ill agree with you. If you are trying to tell me that Dems are the heroes of this tale, well, sorry. But that just doesnt pass the sniff test.
And this whole dog shit about a fair society is just that, its dog shit. Its about virtue signalling and hate and for some weird fucking reasons, asking 12/13 year old boys if they are gay or not…
This is not fucking normal. This is fucking weird. And if this shit is the “progress” you are pushing, then Ill stand against until I die of a stroke or something.
No, Im surrounded by morons who think the worst version of a group is reprehensive of that whole group. You do it, they do it, everyone is doing it. Seeing this nest of nazi fuckwits is bad enough. But youre all treating it like its exposing the whole of the other side. Its the same energy that sees people say “the jews control all the money”. What, all of them? Every single Jew? Well, that must be some size of table they all sit round when talking about what to do with it.
Next you’ll be telling me all black guys are paedos because Diddy is…
I am not smarty than everyone else. Only a prick would make such a claim. Theres plenty of intelligent people around lemmy, just because you dont count yourself among them… is a you problem.
What makes you think I dont have friends? Does it make you feel better to think of me as some sad loser? That way you dont have to deal with the fact youre in a cult? Whatever works for you, mate.
Of all the things you could have said to grab some free worthless internet points, that might just be the weakest. You can do better. I believe in you. Come on, dude. You got this.
Most ultra leftists are horrible by themselves and would do the exact same thing, and a lot of the politically correctness bullshit from years ago caused many people to vote trump back then.
When Dani Lalonders said that she didnt hire white people because they “created unsafe working environments”, you all said that was fine. It was like a white woman saying she crosses the street when she see a black guy because she doesnt feel safe. Its racism then, but not when it was Dani. I wonder why that is? Why is it ok for some people to be racist, but not others? Could it be, because you are all in fucking cult? And the only real difference between you is the colour of whatever is on your head?
I dont know how you got that from what I said, but youre half right. Im Scottish. Im as left wing as you can get without sporting a shitty moustache. And thats actual left wing, not that right wing ghoulish shit you Americans pretend is left wing.
I have zero issues with anyone coming here. The more the merrier. So, now what you got? What keen insights of the American fuck wit can I expect next?
bro I just realized you arent even the person i was originally talkkng to, who the fuck are you? I literally don’t care about your opinion but the guy I originally commented on. The guy I was talking to I am betting is a liberal right winger. Dont care about your stances
It’s best to just block Benny, he’s not just a white European who hates immigrants, he’s a white European who hates immigrants, women, and anyone of a different shade than he is. He’s a proper cunt.
It’s a frustrating echo chamber here. I’m trans and there is tons of extremism from specifically other people in my community. I’m left leaning ( left leaning centrist? ) and people are too tribal when it comes to partisan politics to see the extremity on their ‘side’.
The modern political landscape sees people othering their ‘enemy’. Understanding them as ‘dumb’ or ‘terrible people’, with a complete lack of empathy for their humanity.
Republicans are people too, frequently misguided, and that’s a sad thing. I feel sad for them, they deserve my pity, they are lost.
Can you share an example of extremism from left wing politicians or senior party members in the US to illustrate your point? Because it doesn’t sound like you’re comparing apples to apples.
This comic is making reference to real comments made by a real Republican group that’s existed since the 50s and is the national youth wing of the Republican party - many of the people exposed in the leaked chats currently work directly for senators and government bodies.
I dont know. On one hand we have cunts wearing red hats and chatting shit about “men in dresses”. And on the other we have blue haired land whales chatting shit about how being “male and pale is stale”. I think everyone is just a cunt at this point.

Ah, so its the best of us vs the worst of them argument? Never heard that one before…
Do you think the MAGAs consider Trump, Hegseth, or these chucklefuck MAGAlings as the worst of them or the best of them? Pit the right’s “Best” against the left’s “Best” and you make sir/madam Sparkly Fart’s point.

Newsflash for you, chief. You are the thing you hate.
John “I hate the g**ks and I always will” McCain is your champion?
lol
Newsflash for you, MAGA is the republican party.
I’ll grant you that McCain was probably the highwater mark for the GOP in recent history, but I think its pretty clear how MAGA views him today (I think “loser” and “RINO” were bandied about pretty often)

Can you name any Republicans with power that don’t go along with MAGA?
Who would you say is the best of them? Trump?
I wouldnt know who the worst or best is, I just know that being republican doesnt make you a nazi anymore than being a democrat does. And thats really my point. All too often we see the worst example of something, anything, and one side of the dumb as fuck culture war grabs on to it for dear life like its an example of the whole group.

If you dont know shit stfu Moron
Oft. Thats your effort is it? Id be embarrassed by that keyboard warrior retort, mate. I really would.
Nah, your a moron that’ll never learn. You hate information and truth and deserve 0 percent of my effort. Just Google your ideas and learn.
lol I guess that really was your best effort after all. Man, they really did ruin a good bum by putting teeth in your mouth, didnt they?
Dude… Are you okay?
No, Im surrounded by morons who think the worst version of a group is reprehensive of that whole group. You do it, they do it, everyone is doing it. Seeing this nest of nazi fuckwits is bad enough.

You know you’re smarter than everyone else, but you don’t seem to be able to find intelligent friends. Why waste your time here?
I am not smarty than everyone else. Only a prick would make such a claim. Theres plenty of intelligent people around lemmy, just because you dont count yourself among them… is a you problem.
You need to surround yourself with people who aren’t morons.
Im not surrounding myself with you. You are surrounding me. Maybe, youre the problem?
You need to go find a friend that sees you. Shake it off.
What makes you think I dont have friends? Does it make you feel better to think of me as some sad loser? That way you dont have to deal with the fact youre in a cult? Whatever works for you, mate.
oh look, it’s someone’s unearthed post from 2016
Of all the things you could have said to grab some free worthless internet points, that might just be the weakest. You can do better. I believe in you. Come on, dude. You got this.
You sound like an AI
I dont “sound” like anything to you, you dope.
Fully agree with you
Most ultra leftists are horrible by themselves and would do the exact same thing, and a lot of the politically correctness bullshit from years ago caused many people to vote trump back then.
whats your most radical left position? do you even have any left wing positions?
When Dani Lalonders said that she didnt hire white people because they “created unsafe working environments”, you all said that was fine.

Lemme guess, youre a white european who hates illegal immigrants?
I dont know how you got that from what I said, but youre half right. Im Scottish. Im as left wing as you can get without sporting a shitty moustache. And thats actual left wing, not that right wing ghoulish shit you Americans pretend is left wing.
