Imagine growing up in a household that shit talked Republicans hardcore, and then 12 years after leaving home finding out that dad is a Trump supporter 😮‍💨

[-] Waldowal@lemmy.world 39 points 5 months ago

Did he hit his head? The lead kick in?

I'm only half joking. I had a neighbor who I used to describe as slightly conservative-leaning. He suffered a brain injury on the job and is now a full tilt QAnon MAGA goofball.

[-] db2@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago

There are several studies that clearly show political conservatism is legit brain damage. It's insidious too because their afraid of everything including admitting they have a problem so they never get help.

[-] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Are you talking about the one showing conservatives tend to have an underdeveloped sense of empathy, or are there other studies?

[-] db2@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

That's part of it, also their brains have actual scar tissue and they have enlarged amygdalae so they're in a constant state of fear.

Godforbid you're him, amirite?

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 11 points 5 months ago

How does that even happen?

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 14 points 5 months ago

Too much fox news.

It happened to my dad too. He got hurt and was basically sitting in front of the TV all day being brainwashed to hate "the left."

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

My parents were always a bit right but they still could function. Could have a normal conversation or do an activity with them. 2010 thanksgiving was the last time I saw them and fox killed whatever was left in them.

[-] the_grass_trainer@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

My guess is Dad was waiting for the right person to validate some very prejudice beliefs.

I knew a guy who was a philosophy major and his friend group was a bunch of atheist skeptics, so he knew all about logical fallacies and so on. He took a hard right turn into Pizzagate territory once Trump took office and now believes everything short of Flat Earth. (And maybe that, too. We haven't talked in a loooooong time.)

The only way it makes sense to me is to think that if you have no moral compass, you'll go whichever way the wind blows. Humans like to think that we're rational, logical beings (even if nobody else is), but the truth is that we're all driven by emotion. Strong values, such as a love of truth and hatred of bigotry, are what keep people from descending into this nonsense, not mere logic.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago

Oh no. My finding porn sources with greater accuracy has helped fund the war in Ukraine

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

If there's one thing I trust Russians with, it's their ability to identify porn and Anime.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago

Honestly it is really the best. I have this plug in called reveye which lets me just click and search something on all the major image search engines and yandex always kills them all. Tineye rarely finds shit anymore honestly.

One of my old MMO friends came out as a MAGA after a year of raiding together. Tbh, it kind of didn't matter since we were killing shit in a game and it just didn't come up unless I was mentioning watching certain political satire shows. He wasn't an outstanding guy, but I've played with much worse people and would still consider him a friend.

Don't play with him anymore, but that was because of his other terrible life choices, going all in on playing League.

[-] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 34 points 5 months ago

Playing League > MAGA. Not surprising

A guy at my D&D table went that way. Kinda glad the nights he doesn't come tbh. Just feel dirty associating with someone like that outside of work.

Oh hi it's you. My wife is an immigrant, my sister-in-law is trans, I'm an angry atheist and my life work is in the environmental sector. You hate my wife, my religion, my sister-in-law, and my career. Yet here I am spending time with you freely.

I'm sorry that happened to you. It's a mental disease that hopefully gets recognized as such before everyone's dead including them, by their own hands.

[-] HerrVorragend@lemmy.world 27 points 5 months ago

Shouldn’t the hats and slogan say MAGAA this time?

I mean, Trump had 4 years already.

oc

TWO watermarks

Yeah okay

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago

I make fake watermarks for my own OC because i think its funny. Please try to find an earlier posting of this picture

I appreciate this kind of humor, well played

[-] niktemadur@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

I like to put watermarks in the middle of songs in my playlists, like a lion's roar in the back with a Steven Hawking-like voice in the fore, saying some flat 'n' plastic-positive thing like "oh yeah!".

[-] 20hzservers@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Now that's some twice baked OC 😂

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 20 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

An "awful wallful" is when you log back into Facebook for the first time in a decade and your entire friendlist have become QAnon believers.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

This is why I only hang out with people i haven't met yet.

[-] OldWoodFrame@lemm.ee 12 points 5 months ago

If you ever see me in a sincere political hat, feel free to strike me down. It's just so weird.

Wear a cowboy hat if you want people to assume you're conservative.

[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago

I wear a cowboy hat so folks know they mess with me their cattle gon get rustled.

Not in person, but I see on Facebook an old mate who seems to flirt with homophobia/transphobia.
