After 2016 I spent a lot of time on reddit talking to Trump voters to understand why.

Overwhelmingly they believe things that aren’t true. Basic misconceptions of the world cascading in on one another culminating into the stupidest vote of their life.

One guy thought Obama was a vain man because he named his healthcare plan Obamacare. When I told him the healthcare plan was called the Affordable Care Act, and that Republicans and the media called it Obamacare as a way to hurt it, his brain couldn’t process it because why would the media parrot Republican talking points if they were all biased towards Democrats?

You can understand how this individual would make this mistake. He pays just enough attention to be misinformed. Three generations of right-wing propaganda, the world’s most disciplined messaging machine repeating the same lies and half-truths have absolutely run roughshod over this type of person.

I haven’t used my oven at all since I got the air fryer.

There are protected wild horses on federal land.

It’s illegal to hunt them or kill them for meat.

But the Trump administration has found a loophole: if they capture them and sell them to a foreign entity alive, that foreign entity can legally butcher them.

It’s darkly funny because those horses are a invasive species that only have federal protections because conservatives like to pretend to be cowboys.

Something something Roman citizen something something bridge never gets fixed

I’ll never forgive China for inventing gun powder

You know during the campaign my only exposure to the guy were clips of him absolutely devastating Cuomo so I am sort of surprised now when I see clips and he looks so happy and friendly

Donald Trump knows he’ll be remembered as the worst President of all time and the counter to that that he’s come up with is to increase the amount of US territory.

Translation: All we have left is the hammer and if that can’t solve the problem then we’re fucked

Our concept of evil has changed overtime. In Dantes Inferno the people at the bottom of hell aren’t the people who killed the most, it’s the people who are most famous for betraying others. One of them is there because he stabbed the Hitler of his era in the back to protect democracy.

He doesn’t, he likes it stanky

I think you mean the nika nika tree incident

Inauguration is 20 days into the year, so there should be two names in transition years

This isn’t a defense of this piece of shit, but I don’t like people comparing pictures of babies in the bath to CSAM. I completely understand why you wouldn’t want those pictures shared with the wider word on account of all the pedophile christian conservatives out there, but CSAM it is not.

As soon as a feel that slimey texture in my mouth I gag

The difference is every journalist in the world is addicted to twitter and everything spoken or written about in the news is just what they were talking about on twitter yesterday

Well I was leaning GOP but if Bernie is urging me I guess I’ll switch

Felt like it was right on the cusp of greatness. The NX refit would’ve been like Riker growing his beard

I remember when it waa official that he lost in 2020 there was spontaneous dancing the in street. The news kept showing live streams of empty COVID streets and then people starting going outside in their masks and dancing.

This time, it’s going to be a rager.

The future will talk in awe and condemnation about the scale of our beef consumption.

The amount of water it took to grow the feed they ate.

The amount of greenhouse gases it created.

The fact that the land use required was the size of north america.

The suffering that was required to inflict on the animals themselves.

They won’t mention data centers at all.

The fake online reality conservatives have created always falls apart on contact with reality
