LOL that fucking fake ear bandage shit....where were the bandages "in solidarity" with murdered school children?

They wore AR-15 pins for that...https://www.thedailybeast.com/andrew-clyde-reveals-himself-as-source-of-ar-15-assault-rifle-pins

LOL

Clyde then explains his decision to hand out the pins and urges those who want one to visit his office.

“I give it out to remind people of the Second Amendment of the Constitution and how important it is in preserving our liberties.

GOP: "we need guns to preserve our liberties"

also GOP: "we're not done taking away your liberties"

They were busy calling the children paid actors and bullying their grieving parents.

Bullying them so bad that at least one of them commit suicide.

Comedian Frank Caliendo had a video doing his Trump and Biden impersonations talking on the phone to each other before Biden dropped out. He would cut back and forth between the two and every time he cut back to his Trump, the bandage would be bigger. By the end he had a pillow on the side of his head.

Ain't it great. All these years of Republicans doing the same thing, but now that Democrats are doing it, all of a sudden, worth news copy.

[-] Riccosuave@lemmy.world 49 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The time for decorum and establishmentarianism has long been over. It's time to treat Republicans like what they are: degenerate fucking fascists who's viewpoints have no place in society.

[-] simplejack@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago

Also, those views are fucking weird.

[-] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 38 points 4 months ago

I think my favourite part of this is that, of all the things Republicans have called people, all the racist terms, all the gay-bashing, anti-trans, misogynist, ablist bullshit terms they've used, they're freaking out over the 'epithet' weird.

Talk about the most thin skinned little bitches on the planet.

Apparently name-calling was also projection. Who knew?!

[-] p5yk0t1km1r4ge@lemmy.world 22 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Awww shucks-are the democrats saying mean things about the conservatives? Well, that sounds awfully familiar. Aren't they the ones defending Trump doing the same shit? Fucking weirdos.

Lame nerds who think sex outside of marriage and weed are bad

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
