A rare funny from them.

[-] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 24 points 1 month ago

ahhh, the "conservative who identifies as a comedian mk8 the same joke 50 times" version of the onion?

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 61 points 1 month ago

why is this community putting babylon bee headlines on my front page

Memes are memes, why are you subscribed to a meme page if you don't like memes

Because they cannot/don't want to read. Or they just don't care

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago

Right-wing version of The Onion.

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 1 month ago

Wait.... So their version of a joke is to.... Make a joke at their own expense because of how shitty Vance is?

[-] Lauchmelder@feddit.org 18 points 1 month ago

a broken clock is right twice a day

They are more traditional right, not MAGA right. They make fun of the Republican party all the time.

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Oh? Glorious glorious juicy infighting.

The pot: No, YOU'RE black!

The other pot: No, you're black.

[-] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

We're all black on this blessed day!

Fuck knows, honestly. I'm not American so I don't even try to claim to understand Republicans.

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'm American, and me neither. It's honestly still such a mystery to me that I do think about quite often.

The best that I can come up with is that it's a mixture of a culture of oppression through a cycle of psychological abuse that they've grown to be proud and belligerent to perpetuate, deeply profound ignorance, and a unique emphasis on faith and its taboo of critical thought; all amounting to a society with a stagnation of free will and progress.

Of course, that is a amalgamation or conglomeration of a wide spectrum of archetypes of people, liberals and non Americans included. It's a survival instinct and a cope in almost all cases.

Finding people even conceptually aware of this earthly prison is rare, and finding a person with both an awareness and a plan to bring us above it AND the power to bring it to fruition AND the drive to do so... hasn't happened yet.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Also with a Christian slant if I recall correctly

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

The Onion but by Christian conservatives.

[-] FrChazzz@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

They were pretty funny when they got started. They would openly roast Joel Osteen and all the Prosperity Gospel crap. Then they decided to wade into politics. And misogyny. So much misogyny.

[-] FrChazzz@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Technically it’s a post of guy putting a Babylon Bee headline on someone else’s page, now screen shot to yours.

[-] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 month ago

It took me 10 seconds to realize this was a joke, and another 10 to get the joke.

I don't like this timeline

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

Smart move, JD would've sucked that old man's tongue right out of his head.

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I still haven't been able to wrap my head around that event. It makes me want to vomit.

[-] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

In light of the Dalai's earlier pronouncement that his successor would be female, the administration has promised him immortality.

[-] lath@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Nirvana does not care for the mortal body limitations. Enlightenment is universal.

[-] superniceperson@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago

Tell that to Buddhists, especially Tibetan Buddhists which explicitly discriminate against women and claim they will never reach enlightenment.

[-] lath@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Exactly why they themselves haven't reached enlightenment. Too concerned with being petty of others instead of untangling the self.

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

But... isn't the gist that his successor is himself?

🏳️‍⚧️

[-] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

The gist is that his successor isn't whoever the Chinese Communist Party says it is (either directly or by trotting our that kid they kidnapped decades ago who hasn't been seen since).

I wonder what brand of fucking big television the dalai lama has. 🤔

[-] index@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Have people forgot already the "suck my tongue" pedo shit this guy pulled out?

[-] alekwithak@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

No, I definitely remember when the mainstream media jumped at the chance to smear one of the most peaceful spiritual figures alive, context be damned. They took a culturally unfamiliar moment and ran it through a Western lens to manufacture outrage. And look, they're still collecting dividends on it!

[-] index@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

He asked a child to suck his tongue, there's no context the guy is a pedo

[-] alekwithak@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

there's no context the guy is a pedo

Wtf do you think context is?

[-] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

That does sound like something the Dalai Lama would say.

[-] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It is a cultural difference slightly taken out of context. Albeit it is incredibly jarring for Americans and other European countries. He did issue an apology for it.

[-] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Go on ...

This is a perfectly normal thing in Tibetan culture?

[-] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Sort of. According to residents who defended him they said it is a normal joke that elderly people to do children in Tibet.

[-] Underwire@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

By the way why the pope even accepted (he or someone of his entourage) to meet with JD Vance?

[-] Wilco@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Dalai is finding himself some Necrotic damage resist gear first.

[-] peteyestee@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

He doesn't want to die yet.

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Flashbacks to Assassin's Creed 2 where you fistfight with the Pope.

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

I dunno, if he keeps missing appointments like this it'll reflect on his performance review
