A bloodbath is when white cops gets owned by having a flagpole shoved up their ass on Jan 6th and NOT when half a million Muslims die.

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

You're laughing. Those rioters made Nancy Pelosi miss her brunch and you're LAUGHING

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

to be fair she still had a few mimosas but she wasn't able to gab with friends as much so it's still awful and we shouldn't be laughing

[-] Parzivus@hexbear.net 48 points 8 months ago

It's really funny that Republicans dogwhistle all the time but libs have managed to go after a random Trump ramble instead

[-] Stoatmilk@hexbear.net 43 points 8 months ago

These people must have been really scared of Elizabeth Warren when she said that stuff about blood and teeth on the floor

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 34 points 8 months ago

I entirely forgot that. I googled and I learned somebody got that as a tattoo.

That painting behind them really ties this whole thing together with Liz Warren and her Cadre together lol

[-] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 12 points 8 months ago

Imagine getting a tattoo for someone who stood no chance of being president.

Also, is that picture in the background from Warrens personal collection?

[-] tripartitegraph@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

I knew what this was going to be before I unblurred the pic and it still hurt me

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

oh damn how did i completely miss out on this whole thing? i'd be less shocked that i missed it if it wasn't apparently so hard-hitting to some libs that they had to run out and get tattoos

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago

wasn't apparently so hard-hitting to some libs

99.9+% of libs have entirely forgotten it. It surely is a case of a very small number of crazed libs treating Warren like their fave sportsball hero.

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

what was her team name? redsnek skins?

[-] Zrc@hexbear.net 42 points 8 months ago

umm sweaty, it's highly unlikely that trump intends to literally bathe in blood.

Or their version if it was a lib that said it.

"We rate this intentionally false. While it is true he did say those exact words what he ACTUALLY meant was...."

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 37 points 8 months ago

And even if he was being literal, what are the libs going to do?

Nothing

They'll sit there and be like That assault rifle you're holding is illegal! smuglord as they get dragged out of their homes while the cops with 3 percenter flags sit there grinning

[-] combat_brandonism@hexbear.net 24 points 8 months ago

as they get dragged out of their homes while the cops with 3 percenter flags sit there grinning

let's be real, the libs aren't gonna be in camps, which is why they won't and aren't doing shit. hell some of them are already coping the blue team loss in november by imagining the undesirables being put in camps.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 20 points 8 months ago

True, they'll fold faster than Superman on laundry day

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 33 points 8 months ago

God damn this whole bloodbath saga has been incredibly embarrassing for the people and outlets tryingto spin it something other than the tangential misfiring of a deep fried, prion-addled brain.

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago

This is turning into bloodbath-gate or something. MSNBC and the like might squeeze more life out of it so it lasts a few more days.

the tangential misfiring of a deep fried, prion-addled brain

I hope Trump gets confused on stage and when he's in middle of an odd rant about toilets and their "not big enough small flush" he says something like "Ya gotta flush the democrats to make it flush. Ya gotta flush 'em. If you don't flush 'em you got problems. Clog. Clogs. Democracy too. Dying. Bad. Gotta flush 'em." And MSNBC spends three days ranting about how it could be a coded message for right-wing on liberal violence. And even if it's not - it's clearly a attack on norms for an ex-president to compare democrats to feces.

Plus... could - Russia! Russia! Russia! - be involved somehow?

If this is the best the media can do to "fight fascism" then all I can do is laugh

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 21 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

This is genuinely stupid behaviour. Everyone that actually watches it can see it was not.

Libs are actually just straight up lying now and it makes whoever they ally themselves with and pretend to support look like liars too. I genuinely don't want their support for lgbt movements because it makes other people suspect about them when they behave like this on other issues.

[-] happybadger@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

These are the same judas goats pushing for gun control and enabling fascism at the same time. Absolute children who should be protected from themselves.

[-] Parsani@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Didn't he say this about the auto industry? I don't get how they've gotten so much mileage out of that.

[-] 420blazeit69@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

A good lesson here is that talking points/agitprop/criticisms fall on a scale of

Totally unimpeachable <---------------> You're really stretching here

And we want to stay close to the left side of that. Stretch a lot and you're easy to dismiss altogether; stretch a little and you waste all your time arguing that instead of talking about the stuff on the left that can't really be credibly disputed.

Think of the left side as party-parenti supporting something with citations from the NYT, and the right as Grover Furr breaking out "Stalin didn't commit even one single crime."

[-] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago

Stalin didn't commit even one single crime.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

We might take the threat of another term for that fascist more seriously if the sales pitch from the libs wasn't "which is why you have to vote for our fascist, fuck you no we won't do literally anything you want in order to win you just have to vote for us anyway."

I feel like New Yorkers would describe a long queue for the subway as a bloodbath, really anything that inconveniences them
