i knew it would be in the article at some point:

Yet Todd still says: “I voted for Trump. I don’t regret that. We’re God-fearing, conservative people.”

troompa loompas could literally be starving in the street, their whole family dying of polio or some other shit we thought we got rid of, and they'll still sing the praises of the one who directly caused all their problems. because jesus, guns, and get rid of the brown people

Remember the Hermain Cain Award subreddit?

Hundreds of documented cases of people vehemently refusing real treatment for a 'fake' disease, being immensely cocky and belligerent untill very nearly the end, and then, near the end... still somewhere between defiant, in denial, and delusional.

... Those are the private citizens in the US with the vast majority of the guns.

You are completely correct, many areas of the US will collapse into pockets of highly armed, highly religious cults, utterly bereft of anything resembling logic, beyond the sociopathic logic of how to run a cult.

Basically, a couple of David Koresh's for every county. Good luck!

Worst part is a modern US Jesus would be all eat-the-rich anti-establishment, founder of a commune (or several as he travels), and get killed "by accident" in an ICE raid.

[-] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 months ago

This is how you know it's a cult.

And that quote is why I laugh at these fucking idiots. I genuinely do not have the capacity to empathize with people who are so idiotically and uncritically dogmatic.

If you asked them what their dogma is and where it comes from, they wouldn't have any reply. These people are narcissistic, unserious and willfully illiterate.

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 4 points 3 months ago

Well, they don't know what dogma is

Jesus loved Rome and thought empire-building, pillaging and murdering were virtuous activities! 🙄 But this nonsense is exactly what these Burgers believe in. As always, their "religion" is just narcissistic performative nonsense, without submission to God.

Yeah, if you keep saying "no matter how much you hurt me, i am still going to keep voting you into power", then you shouldn't be surprised that they hurt you as much as they can.

Having a limit on something that you see as a deal breaker is necessary and good, yet these people see that as a weakness

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago

Have the day you voted for, morons!

People who voted against this shit (and no, third party doesn't count) have my fullest sympathy, of course

They just announced on the news that the oil companies are already using the Venezuela Invasion as an excuse to raise prices. Expect an expensive 2026, and tell them what you think of it in November.

[-] SupraMario@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

They'll still vote red.... because they'll have been told that all of this is the blue teams fault.

If I was a God believer, I would think God created covid to give americans a chance to get rid of the pedo-dictator before it was too late. Jan 6 was a bonus to make sure he was sent to prison. But then.... it's the USA, where being a selfish under-educated racist is basically a skill.

[-] DrFistington@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Then get your guns and do your job. You fucking got us into this mess

[-] HarkMahlberg@kbin.earth 4 points 3 months ago

I'd prefer they didn't. They'll never admit, even tacitly, that they caused this mess. If they pick up guns, it's gonna be to go back to lynching black people or to annihilate their own families. They will not conceive of any other way out.

I'd prefer they starve.

"This is not what I voted for!" - cue Morgan Freeman: It was, indeed, exactly what they had voted for.

It turns out that tariffs and slashing health insurance don’t actually lower your bills.

I love the tone of this article

[-] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

They were warned.

"But did you see that Biden went on vacation!"

[-] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago

Why is every sentence in this article its own paragraph?

[-] Lexam@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Unfortunately those of us who voted against him can't afford it either.

As always, they don't care even a little about right or wrong, just about their comfort. These people will never be moral, whenever they act right it's just because they lack the resources and opportunity to go all out. 🤷

Upvoted for Lupin.

[-] AlexLost@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

No shit. Prices just went up to pay for an illegal overtaking of another country's assets to satisfy already filthy rich oil barons at taxpayers expense. Wheeeeee!

Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
