So the reason why they're so against women, gay, drag, trans was that they want to be the only drama queens around?
You hit the nail on the head.
Projection is a requirement to be part of the GOP
They reached the most sensible, logical conclusion: deport musk and impeach trump.
Fuck it. Impeach Elon, and deport trump as well, while we're at it. Deport them both to Afghanistan, since that wouldn't be cruel or anything, right? Just sending people wherever you feel like it.
Didn't one of Trump's grand or great grandparent come here illegally? Sounds like he needs to visit El Salvador
His wife would be illegal by current ICE standards so her and her anchor baby Barron should be deported or sent to El Salvador.
“Imagine how much worse it would have been if it was women?”

~~Why do you choose to be a misogynistic dick when you could just shut your mouth?~~
Alright, Gotcha, and I appreciate your position
The written word is tricky, it loses nuance

Gotcha
To be fair, your response was entirely appropriate for actual misogyny. Sorry for the false alarm.
It's great to see healthy interactions here
It's so much better than the cesspit of neckbeards that is reddit!
I don’t normally upvote shit like…
But this, I upvoted everyone because I saw the whole fallout afterward and I like the interaction.
“Oops no fr I fucked up not indicating I was joking”
“Oh cool that’s all? Nbd.”
I’m here for that shit: if that’s what Lemmy was as a whole, the world would be a better place, legit.
Damned right
I think we forget to reinforce the positive, because we're so used to being negative
It helps, here on Lemmy, that there is no financial incentive to promote users being absolute shitheads; unlike certain other social media outlets (i.e. all of them).
~~I can't imagine.
Can you mansplain?~~

cheers, I abhor the '/s' tag, but it would have clicked here.
Nominate a woman that people actually want to be president and then maybe we can talk.
AOC, for example, is filling football stadiums in red states.
And make sure they're not flagrantly carrying water for a genocidal ethnostate during the run up to the election. Preferably they will be sane and won't support that kind of thing at all. But this is America, we're currently being led by a dementia addled gameshow host. Sanity is sadly not a prerequisite for the job.
Oh ya know... It's not her turn. There's like 6 people you've never heard of ahead of her.
Right. And to be clear, you can have insincere boring male candidates just the same. Look at old Biden (VP Biden is somewhat different). Or look at Tim Kaine. No authenticity. No charisma. No backbone.
My car has no charisma but its got years of character.
Anger isn't an emotion - it's alpha male psychology, or something? Honestly I lost track while laughing as two of the worst people on Earth started going at each other like a pair of angry cats.
How is anger not an emotion?
That was sarcasm.
You know how parts of the manosohere like to claim men are the voice of reason incarnate and women shouldn't be trusted with any responsibility because they're too emotional?
Part of that facade is to act like anger isn't an emotion, because when they suppress "unmanly" emotions like sadness and fear, they tend to channel them into anger instead.
Well fuck, when you put it that way, I will not only upvote this, but change my previous down vote to an upvote as well, and then jerk off. That last part is unrelated to your explanation, just thought you'd like my schedule for the day, starting now.
I had to look up what TDS is and for others, it's short for "Trump Derangement Syndrome", an epithet MAGA put on people they don't like to insinuate that they fear Trump and his ilk.
I assumed it was some ketamine side effect.
Earlier today my wife sent me a link to an article about the Trump/Elon drama and compared it to our teenager's high school bullshit level feuds.
Pretty much hit the nail on the head.
If Elon said that about epstien that means he knew the entire time and chose not to say anything
To be fair, I feel like almost everyone I’ve ever met would be too emotional to be president.
We failed pretty horrifically at screening the bullshit out though. Like, god damn.
The greatest illusion of humanity is that reason is a default state.
We are hormonal meat beasts that require decades to tame to any productive end and even still we are all literally one phone call away from losing our shit completely.
There’s no way I can handle a phone call of any kind. Honestly even a mildly annoying Teams message would probably be enough to send me off the deep end.
