Y’all are just taking it out of context. Like that Fox News host that said kill the homeless.
Yep, we live in a rape culture. Why else would a rapist president be promoting a rapist holiday?

Remember when Christians called for Clinton to resign because he was unfit to be president because he got a BJ from an intern? Those same Christians voted for Trump.
All of it is about control, it has nothing to do with logic. If you understand this, fighting these idiots becomes much easier. You’re not dealing with reasonable adults, you’re dealing with a bunch of giant upset babies that don’t want to get sent to their room.
Hypocrisy is dead under the republicans.
That’s because they can’t spell it
Or is it the other way around?
Republicans take hypocrisy to a whole new level.
Absolutely true. However, it hardly looks any better for Democrats. Bill Clinton is barely any better than Trump, and yet he is still revered in party circles.
Also, Democratic party elites have yet to back Mamdani in NY which is defacto support for Cuomo who has the same kind of track record.
This isn’t a Republican problem, it’s a wealthy elites problem.
Drugs are bad, but let’s not pretend that weed and meth are the same.
So, getting groped by a Republican is meth and getting groped by a Democrat is weed is this analogy? Please.

friendly reminder that they ended Howard Dean’s presidential campaign because he got a bit impassioned in one of his speeches and said “Hyah!” a bit awkwardly. that was too weird for a presidential candidate.
Honestly, this should’ve been the end of it. No sane country would elect someone that said this as their president
We are fundamentally broken. It doesn’t matter. It’s been a facade the whole time.
He is america. A racist misogynist bully.
I’m going to blame reconstruction failing. We never corrected the hypocrisy at our core and this is the result.
Who is “we”? You had some big part in this? Stop blaming yourself and please stop blaming me. There’s not much need to self-identify with an oppressive system if you’re not actively doing the oppressing. The nationalist “we” is garbage.
Amen. Trump is showing the world what America truly is. The rest of the world sees this. Many Americans do not.
And to throw an olive branch, many countries are a Trump away from the same realization.
It’s something innate in humanity. We’re just speedrunning it.
Being an optimist it’s waves throughout humanity and this is merely the most recent one. We are better as a species though still not perfect. My gut tells me we will make it out of this but like many times before the old thinking will need to die.
We are going to look back at the greed rampant today for the mental disease if truly is and address the underlying issue that makes people like Elon or Bezos not only exist but thrive. We will come to the realization that people like that are not normal and we will no longer idolize or encourage such destructive individualism.
A significant portion of American voters: “Heh, NICE! I wish I was famous.”
That significant portion dont realize they are closer to 0 than they are a 100k-inair
As well as when he made fun of the journalist who was in a wheelchair. I remember seeing that and I thought it was completely over for him, but no.
Sane you say?
The Onion, if they were writing this (instead of it being actual) would have made it better reading, less disgusting.
It really should have been. The “conservatives” are not religious or conservative, they are disgusting. The “conservative” republican party is way WAY too liberal for my tastes. We should start calling republicans the “libs”, because they are.
You sound like someone who still believes a party what doesn’t blab about it’s cruelties, wrongdoing and stupidity is a party that is innocent and good. Haha, good one. Who has been the opponent of trump the first time around in 2016, Hillary Clinton, right? Personally I always welcomed trumps presidency. Thanks to him the whole world can see what a farce our democracies are (and it’s not only the MAGAs I talk about). And as Europeans it enabled us to distance ourselves more easily from the forced western dependency/decadency. I just don’t know what’s better: being a US colony as before or the recent stupidity, having a straight-from-BlackRock-lobbyist as a chancellor… Darn, and that’s one of the reason why people become more and more aggressive while becoming decreasingly tolerant to differing world views…
Here’s the original conversation if anyone is interested. Reading all the “that is just what men do” comments makes me wanna barf.
It’s just locker room talk man. Perfectly acceptable.
/s
just locker room talk
for me that was maybe the most infuriating response to this whole thing. from women too, no less.
i’ve been in many locker rooms, with other dudes, and have never once talked about sexually assaulting women, joking or otherwise
Mostly, we assault each other and that’s what makes us straight
The good thing is that in hindsight we can be pretty sure that it was mostly bots. The sad part is that it worked.
Nope, pretty certain everyone who voted for that fucker do believe that it’s perfectly okay what he did.
Or they were and are still heavily influenced by bots.
Seeing the conservative reaction to this was my first realization that we were truly fucked.
Initially: Thank god we can finally stop pretending Trump is a real candidate
Moments later: Oh, oh no
Ten years later: What what what oh shit oh fuck
Your initial reaction was the only sane path history could have gone down.
I have repeated this story numerous times.
After that tape came out, a conservative woman went on The View TV show to defend Trump.
One of the panelists kept using the phrase ‘pussy.’
The conservative woman asked her to please stop using that offensive term.
Shoulda called her a cunt
As a PoC we kinda just go with the flow. Got a few scattered family members that support him for his regressive values but its very few and far between. For white people, I can only imagine, entire families must have had a schism put through them.
“i’m… offended by him saying that too…”
Since 2016.
What does even “conservative” mean for Americans? For Europeans it means you try to conserve things, or apparently being a moron.
in america, “conservatives” will tell you that they want a return to “traditional values” even though that’s just barely the case in reality.
what maga really wants:
be racist/bigoted with complete impunity
mandatory jesus
own slaves again
failing that, resegregation
tradwifei’m definitely leaving things out, but you get the idea–pretty much the fantasy is to return to the 1950s
edit: i want to add, a LOT of maga voters will say “no i don’t want that i don’t want that” while literally voting for and supporting and wearing t-shirts of the party that’s trying to force people to deify charlie kirk, and punish anyone who doesn’t. it’s absolutely fucking insane, and whatever problems exist in europe, please know that here’s at least one person who envies you
Now I just need to know what “libtard” means, as I get called that by tankies from time to time…
“libtard” = someone with the capacity to feel empathy = enemy of fascism AND communism
I didn’t hear or remember the first part. Was he talking about a specific woman with the breast implants? Wtf
[sniff] That’s so beautiful, it should be embroidered on a pillow.
If I wanted to protest in the US, I would put that quote on tshirts and have everyone buy it. It would make for quite a tv presence…
Why do dumb people think it’s “all of the sudden”?
Supposably
Trying to remember the sound of the recording because I’ll never get over how “I moved on her like a bitch” does not read the way he intended
I mean there could be no good people in society if there were no bad people … the comparison is what makes you stand out, so you could also be glad that assholes exist
Lunatics will have insane ideas, that’s a given. It gets dangerous when lunatics get other people on board however.
Edit: also the amount of billionaire cocksucking many Americans do is genuinely creepy. No cap.
Was this an excerpt from his Nobel Peace Prize award speech?
The U.S.A’s Age of Grace and Class. /s
