So what’s all this about penguin tariffs?

PizzaCake is great

Or if the current R leadership becomes irrelevant, the Dems win for many terms in a row, and the new generation of Rs decide to appeal to the left by doing another party swap

I agree, the people who let Trump win are liberals, and they are desperate to blame someone else.

100%

Yeah, PugJesus is right

Driving a car is a sin, and the gods will punish all of us for your hubris. They’ll send droughts, famines, floods, fires, and hurricanes to smite us all because you drove a car.

Is that why you let Trump win the election, cut aid to Ukraine, and propose to colonise Gaza?

Psychiatrist never diagnosed him with ASD. Psychiatrist never diagnosed him with NPD. It’s all rumours and stereotypes. He wants the sympathetic stereotype, Lemmy users who think they’re leftists want the unsympathetic stereotype. How about we leave stereotypes out of the conversation to talk about the piece of shit he actually is, instead of which neurodivergencies we think we can use as weapons against him?

Don’t forget that Elmo is also an autist. You could just as easily and just as truthfully say an evil autist is destroying the country.

I don’t know why you’d want to politicise a mental disorder like that, but since you’re already doing it, you might as well go all the way.

Imagine how pants-shittingly-scared the oligarchs would be if one got capped and they couldn’t find the killer?

I don’t have to. That’s how scared they are now. Luigi is a cope. He didn’t do that, he’s just there to make the oligarchs feel better like a night light

They’ll call the actual shooter a copycat.

Do you think people should do that alone?

I think all of us know, the electoral college needs to go. We need a national popular vote.

And why are planes falling out the sky after they got rid of DEI?

How dare you say those things about my mother? I’ll have you know the chemical number for carbon is 6. You’re a fool for believing that vaccines cause autism.

Are we playing the accuse people of having political views they don’t have game? Okay okay! My turn!

You’re a posadist. You want to encourage global nuclear war so society will collapse and communist aliens will save us. And I think your ideology is silly and look down on you for following it!

I wanna see a politician campaign on creating a weak economy.

Crash the housing market! Make the billionaires lose money! Collapse the oil industry!

Thank you!

Just for shits and giggles, I’ll try giving an actual argument.

In 2016, Hillary Clinton was right. It was her turn. She won the popular vote. I hate everything about that woman. I hate that she’s part of a dynasty, I hate that she rigged the primaries, I hate that her campaign donated money to Trump because they thought radicalising the right would lead to an easy win.

But she was right. The people did want a woman president, and that’s what they voted for. Walz is a really nice, genial guy. I like him. If he were a woman, I think he’d be a different person, or he’d not be a politician. Because to be a woman in the heart of the patriarchy, you need to be strong. You have to have unbreakable armour with no cracks. If the sexist system is challenged, then maybe the next woman president can be a nice person like Walz. But if we keep on having this system where women have to fight to be taken seriously and then aren’t liked for being fighters, then we’re never gonna have equality.

I don’t really care all that much about how good Harris is with a spreadsheet. Her debate and interview performance is important to me in a primary, not in a presidential election. At that point, I’m thinking about the future. About the girls who are going to become women in government. I want them to have more role models. I care way more about that than if Harris is nice, or if her budget plan is perfect.

I think Harris can be what America needs better than Walz can. Personality is only important in an election, symbolism is important in the white house.
