"Women are too emotional to vote, they should only have firearms instead" is parody material.
If they were able to think, they wouldn't be staunch conservatives.
It's called second-order thinking. Most of them don't have it. They are slowly replacing any of their leaders that can do it.
How do these cartoonishly stupid people live like this?
I think it's brainwashing for some and grifting for others.
Probably the weirdest thing about modern American politics, to me, is the fact that the myth that left-wingers favor government intervention and right-wingers favor individual liberty still holds, when it's so bludgeoningly obvious that the opposite is in fact true.
At this point, it's pretty much just a given if you read an article about some government banning something - denying some right or another - that it's the right that's doing it. That's become their response to everything - whatever it is, we need to ban it. We need to get the government to interfere in everything, all the time.
Yet somehow, dunderheads continue to hold to this brazenly inaccurate myth that the left is the big government side and the right is the individual liberty side.
It's just weird to me, and not weird in a scoffing, cynicsl way - weird in an entirely alien, this doesn't even begin to even make sense way. It's as if right-wingers are running around, alternately billing themselves as the "don't get punched in the mouth" party and punching themselves in the mouth.
"See?! [Punch] If you vote for us [Punch] you won't get punched! [Punch] We're the party [Punch] that takes a stand against [Punch] punching! [Punch]."
Her opinion is as shitty as her political ideology.
Which is just as shitty as her pants.
Good thing she wore the brown ones.
is that the poo lady?
I knew I knew that name for a reason. She shit herself at a party.
