In Trump-voting Iowa, farmers have started to shout at each other
In our second dispatch from the new president’s America, our writer in this polite corner of the Midwest sees tensions rise over tariffs and tattoos
“What was he convicted of?” someone asked.
“He had tattoos on his body,” she replied triumphantly.
“Hey, smartass!” shouted a woman in her sixties, jumping to her feet. “You want to see my tattoo?”
“Lady,” the Trump supporter said. “You don’t know what a tattoo is.”
“Yes I do, I’ve got one!” the woman shouted, tapping her chest.
The Trump supporter dismissed her with a wave of one hand. “I’ve had enough of you Democrats,” she said.
You're viewing a single thread.
“That man is a criminal,” she declared of Garcia.
“What was he convicted of?” someone asked.
“He had tattoos on his body,” she replied triumphantly.
MAGA morons are the bottom of the barrel
Tattoos are basically body mutilation or improvement, depending on who you ask. beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I wonder what she thinks of body mutilation like hair cut, nail cutting, plastic surgery and circumcision.
She probably approves of any gender affirming care her entertainment media tells her to approve.
Im trying in my head to make that response of "he had tattoos on his body" less stupid than it is, but cannot come up with a scenario where someone would get tattoos anywhere else.
You're focused on the word, "body", when the one that makes the difference is "on".
If he had tattoos in his body, it would be ok.
It's just a bit more difficult to find a tattoo artist who is willing to work on the inside.
Trying to get into magas heads is a bit like entering the Kaiju minds: dangerous with extensive psychological side effects, and to be avoided
Surely he'd be more of a criminal if he had tattoos on someone else's skin
There are no more dangerous gang tattoos than the ankle dolphin or butterfly tramp stamp
This is almost exactly word for word what happened at work today.
Do you live in Iowa? If so, I feel for you - I escaped years ago.
No, the people's republic of Massachusetts. We're not immune.
Ignorant people in Mass are way more annoying too, because they speak of themselves as above ignorant people in the south or midwest even though they believe the exact same dumb shit
Of all the places Ive lived in the US, the worst ignorance was probably in Mass, because its ignorance with an extra dose of superiority complex
It's funny seeing other Massholes in here with all too similar experiences. I was literally just describing in another post an experience I had with a coworker the other week ranting in circles for 2 hours straight about how rational and centrist he is while spewing Fox News nonsense about "basic biology" and talking about how liberals never back their arguments up with facts and logic (unlike the Republican grifters he sees online, because they'd clearly never edit their videos to only make themselves look good).
Just because Mass benefits from being one of the most liberal states and 80% of Boston has a college degree doesn't mean that their shit don't stink.
The spirit of Massachusetts is the spirit of America….
