You keep telling yourself that.

Jill Stein is a Russian asset or at the very least a shill, and you’re the idiot that fell for it and voted for her.

“Cornel West, he’s one of my favorite candidates. Cornel West and I like her also, Jill Stein, I like her very much. You know why? She takes 100% from them.” - DJT

Stein recorded a video from Red Square, in which she talked about “the need to rein in American exceptionalism” and replace “a U.S. policy based on domination.” Which, she’s not wrong, but she wasn’t saying it for the right reasons (hint hint red square).

And then there’s her position on Ukraine which is straight from the mouth of Putin and Lavrov.

“Russia’s invasion was a provoked response to the bigger, more murderous and illegal game plan of US empire… In 2014 the US backed a coup in Ukraine led by far-right insurrectionists. The installation of the new government was a giant step towards the goal of adding Ukraine to NATO - and putting hostile bases and nuclear-capable missiles right on Russia’s border.” – Jill Stein (Feb. 24, 2022)

Then theres, you know, her having dinner with Putin. In Moscow. For… Reasons?

But ya, blame everyone else instead of taking some personal responsibility for being a fucking moron.

I’m not a “vote blue no matter who” person and nobody is advocating that. I am talking about one election in which there was a specific choice and you made a bad one. In the future, I hope we have better choices, and I’ll do whatever I can to advocate for candidates who want to fundamentally restructure our systems.

And yes Jill Stein is a Russian asset or at the very least a shill.

Doesn’t mean it’s not virtue signalling, nor does it mean you didn’t contribute to the problem. You voted for a Russian intelligence asset for president of the United States and call it “good” you’re a lost fucking cause.

Did you not read when I said “Even if your vote didn’t matter, you contributed to the dialogue and publicity they got for their blatant effort to split the vote.”

Jill Stein is a Russian asset and anyone who supported the green party in 2024 is a cuck who got trump elected. Even if your vote didn’t matter, you contributed to the dialogue and publicity they got for their blatant effort to split the vote. We shouldn’t have only 2 parties, but in the current system voting 3rd party is performative at best and genuinely dangerous at worst.

About as useful as your vote?

I voted green

Then you did do this lmao

So if a cop has his body cam on when he comes into your house to help you because you got your hand stuck in a peanut butter jar butt ass naked, that should be made public? Even against the consent of the person the video is of? I agree police should never be able to withhold body cam footage, but people should absolutely be able to request body cam footage of themselves be withheld. He was convicted of the DUI and received legal penalties for it. Why does the shame game need to be played too? That wasn’t part of his sentence. For your own enjoyment? How does releasing this footage benefit society other than us getting to laugh at him all over again?

It’s perfectly fine to joke about JTs DUI when he comes up, I always do, but acting like he was a bad guy for trying to suppress footage of him regarding an incident he’s already been punished for is asinine. This isn’t some freedom of information issue bro get therapy. This is TMZ in lemmy tinsel and it got you to engage.

That was fascinating to read about. History doesn’t repeat but it sure as shit rhymes.

Wiki page if anyone’s interested

Well according to Chief Cheeto, that doesn’t matter because the USA “doesn’t use it” 🤦‍♂️

But then how are you supposed to know when to laugh?!?! ^/s

He’s a sociopath, no two ways about it. I remember a story his nephew told about bringing his developmentally disabled son (can’t remember the exact condition) to the White House and having multiple meetings with Trump about setting up a bill that would benefit Americans, including his own great-nephew. In one of those meetings, after it had all seemed positive, everyone left the room but Trump and his nephew, to whom Trump immediately said “be a lot easier and less expensive if all these disabled kids would just die”.

That’s fair I haven’t been reading the whole comment thread. There’s definitely plenty of meat on the meme bone for jokes about the ugliness of the maga aesthetic without it degrading into misogyny, but it’s too bad people are acting that way.

The whole conservative movement is the butt of the joke. They’re all in shallow marriages, wear hideous fake costumes, and hate each other. The whole thing is ugly and shallow. The men wear the same clown costume and it’s just as ugly. Spray tans and hair gel anyone?

But they’re ugly because of specific choices they made to wear what ends up looking like a fascist clown costume. They chose this look. They’re not being made fun of for things outside their control.

The vitriol and anger that led to those aesthetic choices also led to unhappy marriages. That’s the joke as I saw it.

I asked a genuine question politely, you can drop the snark.

I agree that if the implication that their husbands would sleep around with other men exclusively because their wives are ugly, then it’d be misogynistic. But that’s not the implication of the meme, at least not as I saw it.

These women chose to wear a specific type of outfit, a specific type of makeup, dye their hair a specific way, and get specific cosmetic surgeries to fit into the toxic world they live in. They choose to look like this. It’s a uniform. Nobody is making fun of their bone structure, bodies, etc. They’re making fun of choices they made aesthetically that comedically also reflect the toxic and ugly nature of their politics. The character flaws that led to those choices also led many of them to have shallow marriages of convenience. That is what I saw as the joke of the meme.

So is a woman insulting a man by saying he’s ugly also sexist? I’m struggling to see how it’s misogyny, honestly. Like I’m not trying to fight or anything, I just don’t get how insulting physical appearance can be misogynistic when men can be ugly too. It doesn’t seem to be attacking them because they’re women, but because their appearance seems to reflect their souls. Ugly. What am I missing?
