A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Conservative Pundits, money didn't make them happy so they convince people who do need money that it wouldn't make them happy either (lemy.lol)

Most conservative pundits out there seem to all talk about how they wanted to do something specific with their life but it didn't work out.
They like to blame the current systems and government for not doing enough to make them famous or popular or cool with the youth.

They then convince a bunch of people who are also unhappy but could have a lot of their issues with lack of time and resources fixed with money, that if they are unhappy while having money dumped in their lap than these normal people will be unhappy with it too. Hoping they fix some arbitrary reason they aren't more famous.

I'm having trouble finding it, but there's a clip of a left wing commentator (I believe it was Sam Seder) saying that they were going to dinner with right wing commentators after some sort of news appearance. He was continuing to talk about the subject at hand, when the other person told him something along the lines of, "Hey, just leave that on the field, man."

It's clear that they don't believe the bullshit they're spouting. They'll run propaganda and interference for whatever side gives them money and attention regardless of what they're saying and how it harms people.
