Everybody on the right “likes what Trump is doing” or “Likes what DOGE is doing”, but when you ask them to articulate, specifically, what actions or policies they like, they will generalize to something the administration has claimed without evidence to be true but is difficult to prove or disprove (“He’s making the border safer”, “He’s getting rid of taxpayer waste”, etc.) or they will retreat from the question by attacking you personally or just saying that the vibes are generally better (“The tariffs will fix the economy”, “America is respected again”, etc.).

I’ve never once had a debate with a Republican who came prepared with sources to back up their claims. That’s because as soon as they try to dig and find evidence of the insane stuff Trump and Musk are peddling, the lie unravels itself and it just becomes easier to accept things at face value rather than think critically.

It just says arrested so I’m wagering these guys were never given a trial, just deported to who the fuck knows where.

Quick, someone use that same templating and do Trumps 34x felonies. Plaster a bunch of them up in the same area where the ones on the WH lawn can be seen. Bet they’ll get taken down real quick.

Important Note: For perpetuating school shootings, not stopping them. Absolutely not for stopping them. Unless we’re talking about the shooter taking themselves out when they’re done.

I’m still baffled as to how they continue to do this unimpeded.

These people are in court trying to enter the country “the right way” by going through the legal system and are getting ambushed by ICE and Homeland Security during their hearings. Unless the desired outcome is to depress the population of “good ones” trying to stay in the country via legal means by scaring them with the threat of sudden deportation, I don’t see what this accomplishes. This war on immigration is equally as stupid and futile as the war on drugs.

Xenophobia has completely fried the brains of most Americans. This shit isn’t normal and never should be.

Negative stuff does come out from time to time, especially when Russia makes big advances, but the underdog effect means that Ukraine typically gets more attention and media coverage for their successful military operations. Russia has had scant few successes over the past few years so they are spreading propaganda that make them look as if they are winning which is getting picked up and parroted by Trump and other neo-fascists in the West.

IMO, it’s not enough to just have Musk step down from the board, quit as CEO, or divest himself from the company. I didn’t like Tesla as a company or a brand very much before Elon went crazy. My issue with the company is that they were notorious slavedrivers in their factories since the very beginning and forced people to work overtime or risk being laid off to meet production quotas. I tried to interview at the Tesla Fremont factory and the guy doing interviews told me pretty straight-up that if I wasn’t willing to work 2 hours overtime every weekday, work on Saturdays and every other Sunday then I wouldn’t last a month at the company, so I didn’t take the job. As far as the brand goes, their quality control issues should be well known at this point - I see brand new Teslas with panel gaps wider than my finger rolling off of lots, so you know shit on the inside isn’t going to be any more well put together.

If I were to ever buy one, Musk would have to not be in the picture at all, the company would have to issue a public formal apology to the consumers for both the behavior of Musk while acting as CEO and also for the numerous lies told about the features and capabilities of the vehicles, and finally they would have to start gradually repairing their brand reputation by improving the QC process and start making cars built to last.

I don’t see any of that happening any time soon.

My interpretation is that he was implying that there is a way to escape eternal punishment, no matter how grievous the sin, and that given enough time everybody can come to grips with the wrongs they have committed and start over again with a clean slate. Either that, or his idea of a loving and merciful God is so forgiving and magnanimous that He could not bear to send even one soul to eternal damnation.

I used to read a webcomic from ages ago called Jack (Edgy NSFW material so Google it at your own risk) that had a lot of interesting takes on Abrahamic mythology. One of the things that resonated with me at the time was the concept of a personal heaven and hell, in which heaven is a reflection of your own idea of a utopia (even if that utopia for one person might be insanity for another) but hell is a reflection of the evil deeds one has committed in life and you are forced to be subjected to the same evil over and over again every day until the sinner learns the error of their ways, asks God for forgiveness, and is allowed to be born into the world once again with no knowledge of what had transpired in the afterlife.

It’s a meh comic with bad artwork for the majority of it, but some bits were really good. So good that I still remember them all these years later.

I don’t want to be caught dead driving one of those fucking nazimobiles. I would not take one even if it were free.

Pope meets with JD Vance.

Says the Trump admin’s immigration policy is a grave sin.

Refuses to elaborate.

Dies.

Piggies have a weak spot on their noses. Got it.

It’s just speculation, but they’re saying it because nobody has ever been released from CECOT. It’s not unlikely that they are just murdering the inmates and pocketing the money that the United States is giving them, or not sufficiently protecting inmates from violence between other inmates.

Zero evidence for any of that shit you said.

I’d love to be proven wrong, but you won’t deliver.

Did you check under Krasnov?

Time to buy a gun. The left needs to arm themselves fuckin’ yesterday.

Don’t think that they won’t come for you. The law is powerless to protect you from having your rights trampled on under this administration. All it takes is for King Trump to declare you a gang member and they have carte blanche authority to disappear you off the street.

This administration is evil. You should not need to be compelled to return an innocent man that you acknowledge was wrongly sent to your El Salvadorian gulag, you should want to. He committed no crimes and was living here in the United States legally. Any decent person, any sane administrator, would want to correct this mistake.

Any idiot with a pair of pliers can take the flow regulator out of a consumer-grade shower head that you can buy off the shelf at any hardware store in the country and get as much water pressure as your pipes are capable of pumping into it.

Here’s hoping we all still have enough money to buy shower heads in the new Trump economy so we can enjoy the fruits of his labor. Who needs prosperity and economic stability when you have a roaring torrent of water to take a depression shower like a real American patriot?

There won’t be an election for the third term. He doesn’t need any of us now.

Can’t do that. That’d be socialism.
