Jeffrey Dahmer?

I guess they finally expanded a bit beyond “Mostly harmless.”

But but, doing things that dozens of other countries have been doing successfully for years or decades doesn’t work! Good ideas are hard!

No, no, no, don’t you see? He doesn’t have enough melanin to be radicalized. He’s just mentally ill, and needs our love and support.

Honestly, I wouldn’t count on that. As always, they’ll simply make up some kind of inane conspiracy theories to blame Democrats for everything Trump does. Hell, a significant portion of Republicans have been sticking to that ridiculous “Trump’s really a Democrat! He’s just tricking us!” bullshit all along, and they…

*sigh* I just don’t understand the mentality these people have. I mean, those who don’t have a personal stake in it might simply be ignorant of the way things are. They’re complete assholes of course, but I could at least see how they don’t get it. But if you need assistance programs in order to not die, how the hell…

Oh gosh! How silly of me! Of course it was the public housing that was holding him back. What is it Republicans always say? Something about assistance programs making people dependent on handouts, despite all the evidence showing that to be total bullshit?

That really is just a perfect example of the monumental levels of stupidity that pervade the US. The most ridiculous, blatantly self-contradictory statements can be made, even on national television, and tens of millions of people applaud. Rednecks on disability whine about government handouts. Boomers on Medicare…

Well, then the anti-crime legislation writes itself. Just issue everyone a belt buckle.

he did spend part of his childhood in public housing

People die from doing this. This is terrible, dangerous advice.

It’s been the Republican MO since the Reagan administration. It was at that time that the “liberal media” myth started propagating through right-wing AM radio. Exactly like a cult, they offered absurdly simple answers to complex problems, while ceaselessly bombarding their adherents with the message that everyone else…

Gravity!? You Newtonist heathen, gravity is just a liberal scam to make aborted babies into gay Muslims!

That’s a bit like my grandparents. Vehement ACC deniers who lament that there’s nowhere near as much snow here these days.

Including almost all of my extended family. Even those who’ve had to shuffle their lives around to help me with my condition. When I point out all that the Republicans are already doing to kill millions of Americans, they just get angry, start sputtering, and tell me I “just don’t understand.”

It’s as if an entire segment of the population has lost their ability of discernment.

I’m going to die when Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and the ACA all are gutted in the next few years. I’m happy to make that sacrifice, because I know that a looooooot of Trump-voting Boomers are about to die right along with me, because they’re too stupid to understand how these programs work. It’s about…

To all of my millennial friends who like to say “everything will be better and fine once the old people die,” you’re wrong. There are just as many racist fuck faces in our generation as there are in our parents, it just looks a little more subtle a lot of the time.

Trump: “Packerstan? Is that where those Green Bays are?”

No, Natasha’s the next one.
