Jesus Tap dancing Christ

It even predates me.

And NOW I have that song stuck in my head. You people are terrible for my productivity … of reading random Lemmy posts.

Thanks, now I have that freakin’ song stuck in my head.

And fuck I feel old now. Get off my lawn!!!

Also only ever lived in the Bible Belt although at least near more liberal universities. And you’re right, just because they can’t vote, doesn’t mean they aren’t affected.

And boy do I hope you’re right that this causes people to wake up.

Ok I had to do this. This quote is too awesome.

While your point is valid in that a lot of people didn’t vote for Trump, you’re being slightly disingenuous here. Ok maybe that’s the wrong word since I don’t believe it’s malicious. But in my opinion the number of eligible voters, not the total number of US Residents is really what you should be comparing. And that number is more like 244,600,000. So while the number is still very high, it’s more like 68.4% didn’t vote for him.

I never in my lifetime thought this country could turn such a complete 180 in such a short period of time and yet here we are.

He used to play Radar from Mash?

I don’t disagree that this kind of language is unhelpful. The quickest way to turn someone off is to attack them. However, this isn’t a response to conditions. Because if it were the people voting for Trump should realize he is not now nor ever going to help them economically. Just today he said he doesn’t care if car prices go up. He doesn’t buy cars. He has no clue what ordinary financial hardships people face. Hell he thought you had to show ID to buy groceries. What Trumps popularity is is a tribal reaction. Trump has turned it into an us vs. them and the right is eating it up. They want to believe the ills they feel are someone else’s fault. Whether it’s trans, brown, or black people. It’s not a white Cristian’s fault. When in reality it really is someone else’s fault, just not the someone else they are being to lied to about. As soon as the majority of people realize this is all about class, rich vs. poor (well at least not rich), greedy billionaires vs every one else, that’s when the shit is going to hit the fan. Of course since the rich own all of the media, they may never realize.

Why is Columbia University turning into such a fascist little bitch?

I love all the medical degrees they give their flight staff.

He probably had help.

There are a lot of skills he doesn’t have.

I just saw this and had to share. Seems you’re right….

Well they would have more of an opportunity 🤷

I have a theory his kid is a human shield so he doesn’t get luigi’ed.

Only 45 more months to go. Yeehaw….

I’m so stealing this line…😂

How the fuck can Musk “restore” funding he shouldn’t have the power to remove in the first place?!?!
