Man, the Idiocracy writers really gave up after the first one

[-] nbsp@programming.dev 113 points 3 weeks ago

the idiots in idiocracy are innocent and a bit endearing.

these idiots are s tier arse holes.

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 52 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

These idiots aren't plain idiots. They're the sociopaths, psychopaths, and pedophiles of society, who naturally gravitate towards the authoritarianism/fascism of white nationalist religious extremism.

They're the domestic enemies the cops and military were supposed to fight against, but didn't because they're also filled with sociopaths and psychopaths who naturally gravitate towards fascism, lol.

People really need to start adding "overt", "unfettered", "rampant" or "criminally insane" before "racism", as qualifiers to this take.

Hilarious that Bud Light is a sponsor after MAGA canceled them. Everyone involved is a degenerate.

How would you even apply satire to this caricature of a man?

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 48 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Have him say something intelligent

I think about this often. The Onion can't hit it anymore, and all they'd need to do would be to write stories about Trump donating to children or reading books to elderly or basically anything make a wish foundation or your local superhero teacher does. Or, just copy anything that he's actually doing, but since it's the onion, people would be shook to anger by reality but laugh at the cleverness and saddened by the pain.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 38 points 3 weeks ago

The trouble is, it isn't symmetric that way. MAGA hypocrites would simply gleefully shout it from the rooftops as fact and it would end up being a propaganda coup in their favor, satire be damned.

See also: the bullshit asymmetry principle, The Card Says "Moops", that quote by Jean-Paul Sartre, etc.

How about this:

Trump jumps into UFC ring, reveals he was faking his old and ugly the whole time

President Trump surprised voters on Sunday by stepping into the Whitehouse UFC ring and challenging Joe Rogan to a kickboxing match. Rogan at first refused to fight, citing concerns about the president's poor health, flabby physique, and deteriorating cognitive ability.

In response, Trump tore off his wrinkled, orange-stained face to reveal it was a mask the whole time. He then released hidden buckles at his shoulders, allowing the fatsuit he had been wearing for the last three electoral cycles to fall to the ground. The POTUS then yelled to the assembled crowds, "The people, they love a heel, eh? But let's set aside the act for today, because I'm feeling ready to rumble."

Trump, now revealed to be an athletic 30-year-old, then backflipped behind Rogan and suplexed him, while singing the Star Spangled Banner at the top of his lungs. He then challenged the crowd, but no members of the electorate were foolish enough to answer him. Sighing, the president put his fatsuit and mask back on, and slowly waddled back inside the white house while audibly shitting his pants.

Remember that the GOP and its base are so incredibly racist, that the fact we ever had a black president is quite literally traumatic to these buffoons.

They quite literally still cry about it and shake in fear every day, especially knowing it could theoretically happen again.

The real question is how are there still so many dipshits in America who aren't MAGA but still can't see its 10000000% a white supremacist movement.

[-] bizarroland@lemmy.world 45 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

They have to add on that obviously Obama was not just black, and not just half black and half white, but he was also a foreigner, he was also Islamic, he was also married to a trans woman, that his kids were manchurian candidates specially trained by some sort of secret three-letter government agency in another country to destroy America and he was also some secret agent....

The stories they have made up about Obama elevate him far beyond the level of mythical. Their brains simply will not accept that he simply won the vote.

They have to wrap so many levels on top of it. It must have been a conspiracy. Otherwise, how could a black man have become president?

When you say, hey, you know, maybe it's a little racist to think this way. They go, oh, I'm not fucking racist. The guy works for the devil, that's all.

That fuse in their brain has been permanently short-circuited.

It's not just Michelle. This is a very common racist meme against black women in general. It's widespread among fascists, etc.

Ever notice that most of MAGA's material was cribbed from the liberal side? There was a running joke 15-20 years ago about Ann Coulter being a trans woman, due to her prominent Adam's apple. They applied the "I'm rubber you're glue" rule, and have been trying to make this a thing since then. As usual, they've missed what made the joke funny, as cringe as it was.

“Melania Trump was a prostitute for Epstein.”

There both sides can do it. Only our side is factual.

Does he just randomly say this out of the blue? Or what kind of contrived prompt is used to steer down this path of dialogue?

Was there a Kalshi bet on him saying it or some shit like that?

[-] ContriteErudite@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

This is probably the right answer, and I can't fully describe the ennui it provokes. It's like the neighbor's kid you watched build a treehouse with his dad grow up to be repeatedly arrested for drunk and disorderly.

Id bet the trump administration/trump himself told him to say that, and he'd get something for it. Be it money or something else.

This is what happened: 100%.

Donald wanted another distraction from the Epstein files and he got one. Another little bit of script for his reality show presidency.

I watched it. This was the post-fight, in-the-octagon interview. He just said it to capture headlines. The cameras then panned out to the huge crowd full of shirtless morons whooping it up.

This is worse than Idiocracy.

Is that a compliment since being a woman is "bad" and everyone knows that being married to a woman makes you gay (per Andrew tate).

So from that perspective they may be complimenting the Obamas. 😅

Trump has no class.

Before anyone says "what does this have to do with Trump?" - This is an event hosted by Trump for his birthday using tax payer money. Admonish the fighter all you wamt but this is an environment fostered by Trump. As stated in a comment above, the fighter was probably paid to say that, with Trump in the audience, on his birthday. Probably paid him in Trump coin or something.

I still can’t fucking believe that’s legal. How is it that he gets to spend $60 million on turning the White House into white-trash trailer-park ghetto cage match on the tax payer dime.
