It’s a breath of fresh air to actually be able to mock Trump with some teeth on it that isn’t brunchy le Drumpf bullshit or acting like Chicken Little in that the sky is coming down in Trump because he was rude to a journalist on twitter. We actually stand to lose a lot more in another 4 years of either Biden or Trump unlike the breakfast crowd of bougie lemmy liberals that think he’s a Marvel Comics villain.
I just got diagnosed by my therapist with Trump Derangement Syndrome. She said the only cure was to post through it.
I keep posting, but it hasn’t worked so far.
just post more and more until you can’t post anymore
I post too hard and like Icarus I get banned by a being that hovers over me and scorns me if I get to close to them.
USA needs a solid independent. We WOULD win against this clusterfuck in the lib/con parties atm.
We need some Jesse Ventura emojis.
The bourgeois already have two parties, and there will only be a third one if they feel they need it. The parties that exist now are essentially lifestyle brands. Politics as a thing in which average people can engage in and effect change, is dead in the United States at the institutional level. The concept of engaging at the institutional level through a third party is essentially dead on arrival.
Electoral politics is largely just spectacle to keep adherents to the 2 lifestyle brand system occupied, and massive money making endeavors, where bourgeois entites pass money back and forth to each other.
The third parties that pop up from time to time are either right wing (libertarians, reform), grifts (forward, people’s party), or unitentional at best sheepdog deadends (greens).
This is all before you get the point of realizing that “independent” in the American political context is really just “massively confused and politically illiterate, but often confidently so.” Which isn’t even their fault because thats by design. That is how the ruling class wants people to be.
So 3rd parties are a dead end. The dream of an independent uniting the country against the “establishment duoploy”, or anything about “common sense consensus” is something grifters will continue to milk for as long as it’s profitable.
Organizing outside of electoral politics is the only truely revolutionary choice; the only choice that commits to the long game that people wanting a better world in the imperial core are in for. Because there is no short cut. I wish there was! But those things are dead ends
The thing we really need is a candidate in the middle. There’s so much political space to explore between our right wing party and our far right party.
It’s so cringe when libs call him Drumpf.
Stand-by to deploy payload:

covfefe
Pack it up boys, we got him.
He’ll never recover
covid killed so many people who didn’t deserve it and spared way too many people who did.
Unit 1337 strikes again.

If we’re being real, this one is kinda funny to me.
What does it even mean?
I could be wrong but I remember people saying it would have been his family’s name before being Americanized so you know, just casual esoteric xenophobia
It is, and John Oliver started using it as an insult, because Trump is racist so in some way it made sense to him?
A talk show host used his pre-Anglicized last name, he must be feeling so owned.
I regret to inform you that TFG (The Former Guy) is the latest flavor of lib cringe.
Me: “What did you think about Trump’s mugshot?”
My neighbor: “We got him!”
Me: “My daughter laughed and said it was funny that “they put him in timeout” because he was only there for like 20 minutes.”
My neighbor: “Wait, he’s out already?”
Mainstream politics is hilarious.
Our big wet boy gets a slap on the wrist and one side is acting like it’s Christmas morning. Then the other side is trying to MAKE A MARTYR OUT OF HIM.
My internal thoughts when someone says no to something I think would be cool
I love how everything was “Trump ARRESTED!” Like he got cuffed and stuffed, processed and thrown in a cell.
I know that “Ayckstually” that being arrested doesn’t mean the rest will happen, but it does to anyone else.
If in their wildest fantasies they think what happened was more than an inconvenience, that makes me sure when he gets pardoned by Biden next election or whatever, the libs will go along with it. What’s that? Can’t pardon state crimes in Georgia? When has the law EVER stopped someone like trump from getting away with everything?
Did they put handcuffs on him?
We stole a balloon!
The level of stupid the average Lib needs in order to kickflip into loving O’Bummer and Brandon but hating Trump is off the charts. Trump also somehow embodies all the things liberals hate and fear, all at once (even if those feelings are contradictory) which is bizarre as fuck once you apply a 3rd grade level of logic to any of it. Like, for example, somehow Trump is the stupidest man on earth (covfefe, blow up hurricanes with nukes, etc.) yet he’s also a super smart deep state facist spy for Russia going back 20, 30, 40 years. Then in order to square that gap they make up shit like he’s so indoctrinated they hypnotized him into carrying out the Kremlin’s will.
Libs, for fucksake, get a hold of yourselves.
They need to see him as a villain, for his ascendancy to power to be a fluke or the result of cheating. The alternative is too much for them. The ultimate truth:
Trump is the quintessential 21st century American president. A catty gameshow host, a silver-spoon socialite, an unrelenting narcissist. The guy who does petty cons and outright thefts to every lawyer, contractor, and business partner he’s ever had. If that isn’t true americana, nothing is. Sure, he belongs in a cell, but so does every other president…
The ol’ fascist line of my enemy is both weak and powerful at the same time. Imagine my shock when libs are trafficking in fash rhetoric.
Sometimes I think this community and instance might have some interesting views I can maybe learn from and about and sometimes, it’s just… I don’t know, like some kind of bougie fucking club for the self described intelligentsia
“The left is just a pampered bougie club full of people with no life experience” is one of the oldest right-wing takes in the book.
like some kind of bougie fucking club
you can call us a lot of things but idk that bougie is one of them
we literally want to destroy the bourgeoise.
like, the debate here is between putting them against the wall immediately like the romanovs versus giving them a chance to surrender their ill-gotten wealth and be rehabilitated like Puyi.
As an enlightened centrist, I want to see individual punishments for the bourgeoisie.
For example, Jeff Bezos will have to work as an Amazon warehouse worker, with all of the horrible monitoring bullshit he’s inflicted onto his workers. People will be able to tune into a live feed of him standing in the corner pissing into a bottle so he doesn’t have to go to the bathroom. When he’s no longer able to keep doing that job, he’ll become one of the only homeless people in the world, and will be kept locked in a park with maximally hostile architecture.
Curious why you think it’s bougie? I understand that we can come across as smug or arrogant but I’m not sure how we ever come across as bougie or decadent or anything like that.
I was a little drunk and I think bougie was probably not the right word choice. The sentiment was more meant to be something along the lines of exclusive or supercilious. Upon reflection I may just not be in on the joke.
it’s just years of in-jokes from talking to each other endlessly

I grew up poor, my friends were having sex and doing harder drugs as young as 11 and Ive lost a friend to H. There isnt anything about me thats bougie
back on the original sub there was a poll and a huge percentage of us slept on a mattress on the floor.
lol go fuck yourself
This is the most correct answer.
This is certainly a take
bougie
Lmao i am literally in a swamp right now
It is us, we are the bourgeoisie now. Finally all of my shitposting has finally paid off :)!
Mr Trump you’re fired
oh my god peak comedyRon Desantis saying you’re fired the other day was a whole new level of cringe
Oh my god did he really lmfao
He’s fired
Virgil’s “your fired” bit was way better.

Trump derangement is the only way to still be a lib and not have their heads explode from the dissonance
He who makes a Chapo of himself gets rid of the shame of being a Dem.
Chapo, like the drug lord?
apperently its a podcast of some Brookly Bougi Boys revieving movies. Libs love it…
Makes a what of himself?
I lost interest so fast in the congressional investigations into Trump and Russia, I’m sorta shocked that people left that event thinking that Russia had deep tentacles into Western institutions.
“Russian Interference” vs “We’re actually a worse country than you thought we were and have been for a long, long time”.
Russiagate was always more a matter of faith than evidence. It was taken as pure gospel among libs that the shoestring budget Facebook psyop out of Russia switched enough voters to Trump to flip the election, despite a complete lack of evidence (most analysis indicated it was preaching to the choir).
the sky is coming down in Trump because he was rude to a journalist on twitter.
“Journalists” deserve far more than that anyway lol.
If msm journalists actually did their job they’d be imprisoned by the international community
For me there is this contradiction that libs say: “Trump bad, he was ableist and a trash human!” and then turn around and use slurs at our instance, then get those comments removed and then say we are worse than 4chan for defending our comrades against ableism and transphobia. I just don’t buy it that most libs are actually allies and aren’t actually conflating the form (Trump not being civil) with the content (him being ableist).
I’ve taken the RFKJ pill. Is he, too, deranged? Probably, but he’s also the only candidate on the ballot in the Democratic New Hampshire primary. Go get em, Kennedy!
Dude he’s a Nazi, right? Like straight antisemitism type?
yea what the fuck, dude is trying to outdo trump from the right on the Dem ticket because he knows he cant win the GOP primary.
He’s the dumbass hipster and antivax crank candidate
Yeah, he’s a crackpot and bound to lose, but I’ll toss him a primary vote over Biden. I’ll probably vote West when it comes time for the general election.
We’re deranged in entirely unique ways
Inventing new ways to be terminally unhinged, just to keep it fresh.
