My parents: "Adoption is amoral. Those children come from godless families."
My sister can't have kids, adopts two.
My parents: "Adoption is God's way of making sure every child can grow up in a loving home."
This is EXACTLY THE BULLSHIT they some Reagan aficionados I know tend to see only once and not learn from.
What the fuck. I didn't even know that was a take. That's horrible.
Religion poisons everything.
Hey, swap out adoption with aborting unwanted pregnancies and you have the same R meme.
Only tangentially related, but I recently saw some antiabortion protestors at a clinic (not PP)
They don't even perform abortions at that clinic...
I bet they were also saying abortion is murder at the same time they were saying adoption is amoral.
She, like most republicans, was an absolute fucking cunt and nobody of worth mourned her death.
My dad:
"Student loans shouldn't be forgiven, they should be paid back! Oh, you still owe $10k in student loans? Well I hope yours is forgiven"
America really needs a better schooling system... Here in Switzerland the ETH, (which is rated 10th place of the best schools in the world I think) is only 800.- (about 1-2 week's worth of salary) per semester, which is nothing compared to what private schools in the US demand, whilst still having quality education. So I believe the biggest issue is the quality difference between state-owned schools and private schools, as private school should be allowed to charge whatever they want, but the state has the responsability to provide quality education to everyone for a decent price.
Nah, they are too busy commercializing their football teams by taking advantage of their students(players) to care about that shit.
TBF they still don’t give a shit about you, they’re just fixing things for themselves and the collateral damage is that it helps others in similar situations.
Reagan's all about that golden shower trickle down
He's in Hell right now just waiting for Heaven to trickle down.
Apparently, back in the day, she was considered the queen of BJs in Hollywood.
Not making this up.
I stan all our blowjob queens except Nancy
Of the many, many reasons I have to criticize her, being adept at blowjobs would not be one of them unless she was preaching that they were sinful. I know there's a faction out there of only missionary position within the confines of marriage solely for procreation, but I don't know if she was in that camp.
Nancy Reagan was very much a hypocrite on just about everything once she and Ronnie got the backing of the right wing.
Oh it’s not a criticism. I have no problem with that. Perhaps a bit of hypocrisy might be flagged up for the Reagans however.
There was a website that estimates IQs (emphasis on estimate) based on writing. It estimates that news reporters averaged 100-120, Stephen Hawking's last work was in the 150s, Alexander Hamilton had works in the 160s, and Qanon conspiraters on Facebook averaged 75-89. Obviously they're estimates, but it seems rather accurate within margin.
Edit: found it!! so you guys can try it yourselves!
I entered sections from my papers I wrote during my master's and I guess I range from 128-151 as my lowest and highest during that time. Great ego boost for the day lol.
The throat goat in the flesh.
"I'm a Republican. I didn't support sucking cock until I gargled my first load of ladpoles.."
Rock Hudson called up Nancy and Ronnie after he was diagnosed with AIDs - they had been friends for a long time. He asked them to help him get treatment from a French hospital, to send some sort of message or advocate on his behalf. They refused.
Ronald Reagan’s inaction on HIV/AIDs is what turned it into a pandemic. There was a refusal to fund research or advocate for preventative practices, because it was the “gay disease.” Nancy and Ronald can rot in piss.
when a congressman suggested to his colleagues that we even look into what AIDS is, he was laughed off the floor because "Why do you care? Are you one of those people?"
Fuck you Nancy and the privileged piece of shit horse you and fuckface Ronnie rode in on
You say that, but Nancy Reagan gave a lot of blowjobs and didn't get a lot of returned favors in kind.
The act of giving is its own reward
That's so beautiful 🥺
THROAT GOAT.
the throat goat
Practices astrology - something that gets tagged as "satanic" by the evangelicals and their entertainment industry - to the point that there is
onean astrologer in the White House or Reagan payroll, gets praised by all the evangelicals anyway. Fishy, fishy people that they are. Stinky and slippery.EDIT: added detail for clarity
they would order air force one to delay landing if the astrologer told them landing too early was a bad omen.
they gave the astrologer classified information, which she then sent to "people with computers" to analyze their relevance to star charts.
the astrologer gave ol' throat-goat Nancy the idea to be tough on drugs "in the community," but like, not the white communities.
even when Ronnie was almost assassinated, the astrologer said she totally saw it coming... but didn't say anything.
it's almost like there's a chimp-with-a-machine-gun methodology for the GOP to hire the most inept people, and end up hurting themselves in the process of using the country and citizens as pawns and property.
Shitbag. Ignored aids. Fuck you, asshole.
Being able to understand other people struggles is only called "empathy" if you are capable of doing it without actually being in their situation. Otherwise it's just sparkling hypocrisy.
This is the biggest problem with the GO, iif you forgive the racism, gaslighting, lying, faciast, authoritarians, war mongers, idiots/morons... ect. The issues are too big for everyone one else to wait til an issue actually affects you.
Republicans are basically just knock off Nazis
You can only call them Nazis if they're from the German regions, otherwise you call it sparkling fascism.
Ah. Is that how it works?
Wasnt she the throat goat? I’m sure there were a few actors who mourned the loss of her skillset
She still doesn't give a shit about you, her interests might align better with yours but she still only gives a shit about herself.
Those who don't give a shit about things until it happens to them, make the circle ever tighter in that respect, make every solution arrive too late for all of us, and that's a group that encompasses... all of us.
Normally we wouldn't give the time of day to these idiots. But these idiots have a disproportionate amount of political power, and they blare their propaganda with divide-and-conquer obfuscation and outright lies at the masses, and always seem to snatch a scary amount of mindless ignorant narcissists, either maga or bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe.
But really they still only give a a shit about themselves.
👄🍆🐐
“I don’t mean those kinds of immigrants!”
yeah its like a baby. if it doesn't affect me it doesn't exist. lots of people in power share the exact same mentality. that's why most of them act like babies all the time.
Like cats but able to feed themselves?
I agree, but to no fair, no politician gives a shit about anything but money and power.
That's because our current system rewards politicians with money and power. Capitalism is driven by accumulation, this is a necessary function of the Capitalist mode of production. Once Humanity advances beyond it, representatives can be selected for without allowing them to amass Capital.
The power to do...what? That's the question. You can say that Bernie Sanders is only interested in power, and you'd be superficially correct. What he wants to do with that power would help people like me, and that makes all the difference.
Before "memes" existed, sometimes people would just do this for no reason. Except, you know, the point it contained.
If you're Joe Biden your son does of cancer and you need to borrow money from Obama but you still don't think people need healthcare.
The "left" in America is dead. Let's not pretend Biden is anywhere close to it.
Still voting for him, though. The other guy is going to kill us all.
