The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship.
Heartless shit upset that his vote to cause extreme hardship for others is actually causing hardship in his own life. Imagine throwing rocks at people and expecting sympathy when one bounces back and hits you in the face.
~~May you live in interesting times.~~ May you live in the times you voted for.
Its so hard for these people to understand that when you spew hate at others, whether through your actions, your words, or through your ballot, that people have less empathy for your than other people that might experience similar hardships and haven't been spewing hate.
The whole comparison of "you laughed at Charlie thing, and now we're laughing at ice killing" is so hard for these people to understand why most sane people view these deaths differently.
Person C spent his entire life spewing hate and saying some crazy shit that puts other people down, or in danger with his gun laws thinking, etc.
Person R was just a normal person, not spewing hate as a career.
Cue the shocked Pikachu face when they realize I care more about person R, than person C.
Similarly, if this person voted for Trump and lost his farm, I'm gonna have a lot less sympathy for him, than someone who voted against Trump, and lost his farm.
Honestly I feel that memes can somewhat help break it down to a format even these chuckle fucks could understand if they wanted to.
I don’t think the issue is lack of understanding, they’re operating on faith logic where theyre looking for validation not information.
The whole comparison of “you laughed at Charlie thing, and now we’re laughing at ice killing” is so hard for these people to understand why most sane people view these deaths differently.
The primary difference here is that Charlie was murdered by a citizen who was arrested as soon as his identity was uncovered and is now in custody.
Renee Good was murdered by a federal agent that has the full support of the federal government and will likely never be arrested or face any accountability.
"So much for the tolerant left" they cry, after punching leftists in the face for 30+ years.
All that's left is the consequences of their own actions, anybody who would've been willing to help them gave up long ago.
republicans are so fucking stupid
Actually, that's not the issue. Like, for real, I'm not trying to mock you it anything like that; I submit disagree with the premise.
The problem is fear, not lack of intelligence. They're cowards. Fear can, and will, make fools of the smartest people. But really, what's the common theme in literally all Republican messaging? Fear.
You have to be stupid to be afraid of the things they say you should be afraid of.
One can be both stupid and fearful. In fact, Trump needs his minions to be both of these things, because with intelligence and rationality, comes the notion that one need not fear things like the LGBTQ+, or women.
When people are stupid enough to believe they have something to fear, the solution can be easily sold to them.
He didn't get shot in the head and left to bleed out, so what's his fucking problem?
That's a blunt but accurate counterpoint. Ouch, but thanks.
At this point, it’s not even about economics anymore—it’s a moral failure. You can't claim to love your country while cheering for policies that ruin your fellow citizens, only to cry when the bill finally comes for you too.
My UK family always used to ask what makes Canadians different from USAians, as they saw us all as America. And it was hard to describe.
But talking to US coworkers lately I found a common theme: While Canadians may not seem very patriotic, we do work towards a common goal of making a society better for all.
In the US every comment I hear from coworkers is "I Got Mine, so I ain't worried." And made me realize USA thinks patriotism is living as an individual in a grand country, but not actually caring about their country as a whole.
I confirm. I knew gringos (US persons). They are extremely individualist.
..made me realize USA thinks patriotism is living as an individual in a grand country, but not actually caring about their country as a whole.
that's because none of us have felt represented by our government since before Regan. Why should I care about my country if it is actively hostile towards me? My entirely life it has wanted to make things impossible for me to succeed. Actively destroyed any possibility of succeeding.
the only thing I learned in my life as an American is that I'll lie cheat and steal my way to a better tomorrow, because at the end of the day morals and ethics don't fill your belly and warm your bed at night. it doesn't protect my family. it doesn't create opportunities for my kids.
fuck this country, fuck this government, fuck every single politician and corpofascist that allowed this to happen.
I'm not a bad person, I just have to be bad because they won't let me live any other way.
Well, what will people in Africa say?
It sounds surreal that people in the USA would say something like that.
Typical reaction, get mad when they can't have it both ways in their benefit while watching others suffer. Fuck that guy.
He voted for him twice and says would vote a third time. What a pathetic piece of shit.
That's exactly what you voted for. He literally told he'd do that. He's delivering exactly what he promised.
Not only was Trump open about it, but basically everyone who was not a fanatic warned them about it.
Narcissism: I'm right, me, me me, me me me. Wait, I'm wrong, pity me, me, me me me. How dare you blame me, for being a victim, poor victim me, me, me me me. Lol, someone else, who cares lololol lmao.
Did I know he was going to increase the tariffs? Yes, I did. However, I thought that the infrastructure would be set up prior for small business to come back to America and manufacture in America.
No, you were told what the result would be. You knew the outcome. You decided to follow your cult instead of common sense. You got what you voted for. I only wish everyone else didn’t have to suffer because of your evil.
When Trump first started talking about tariffs this is exactly what everybody said. Unless you also introduce schemes to assist with setting up infrastructure in the US then the tariffs are not going to have the desired effect.
Nobody is going to set up a factory if there's every possibility that the tariffs will go away at some point in the next 4 years. Not unless the cost of setting up that factory is ameliorated somehow. Otherwise companies are just going to accept they're going to get fewer orders from the US for the next few years.
Especially if setting up a factory in another country means that your staff are likely to get abducted by ICE for no reason.
I work in logistics. The whole industry has been saying amongst ourselves the whole time there's barely a chance that suppliers of assembled goods will move the majority of their warehouses of manufactured products to the US. Let alone the manufacturing itself.
Absolutely delulu.
He can get a job as a picker on another farm. Maybe one owned by a big corporation. Maybe his own former farm once it's sold. They are freeing up work conventionally done by imigrant workers, right? Hard work pays off under conservatives, right?
It is interesting to read the coverage. Many of us didn't relish anything. We find it ironic, we find it good for the lulz, and we ask ourselves, "Do you think he learned anything?" followed by the observation, "Meh, probably not. Reality never interested him, so why should things be different now?"
We don't want Trump supporters to get fucked. Rather, we want to live in a world where Trump can't fuck over anyone. But that's not the situation right now, and karma's a motherfucker.
It is very hard to feel pity for people who only feel pity for themselves, and never for others.
I hope that the business owner gets over being dragged online and restarts his political thinking to align with the betterment of him, his family's, and his community's lives.
In my experience expecting magats to actually learn anything is just wishful thinking.
More likely he'll become bitter and blame Biden. If only Trump has gotten in sooner!
He should be mocked and ridiculed until it penetrates his tiny brain that he is part of the problem and he is getting what he deserves.
That can't be accurate. Certainly he is being mocked offline as well.
"How could the Leopards I voted for eat MY face???"
The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship..
They voted GOP to hurt others, then get upset they were caught in the cross fire and when looking for empathy are shunned
There a word for that /s
These are Cipolla's five fundamental laws of stupidity:
Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
Dear Horrendous Cunt. I'm not American, so I don't judge you because you "didn’t vote the same way" I did. I judge you, because you knowingly voted to place tariffs on your own business. Better yet, you dismissed everyone pointing out that this would only ever hurt you (and hurt pretty much everyone else besides, and some worse than you). Now that it is hurting you, I judge you to be terminally stupid, because everything you have done is stupid and you are stupid.
With all sincerity, go fuck yourself like you fucked your own livelihood.
Are they being mocked, or are people just pointing out the reality of the situation?
I’d love to go mock him in person and watch him rage out like the little magat baby he is
to everyone in America who is suffering, I feel you you, unless they were MAGA, in which case eat shit you garbage of a human being
On one hand he voted exactly for this.
On the other hand, he is a worker that was systematically exploited to be less educated about political affairs and then exploited further by having his work taken from him.
It's shitty that people relish in the suffering of another but it only takes a room temp IQ to have realized Trump was a con man in 2016. It took even less intelligence to realize Trump was unfit to lead in 2020. Voting for him post Jan 6th? You're a fucking traitor.
Congrats!! You did it! You got what you voted for! I’m happy for you! Good job!
The stupid cock sucker will be back on his knees for trump in a nanosecond.
These subhuman pieces of pig shit fascists are like mindless drones that sporadically, for mere seconds, randomly develop consciousness before drifting back into total compliance with the brain washing.
Sucks to suck, bud.
I recently watched a video (sorry don’t remember who or what title) interviewing voters in Alaska. Everyone was trying to make the point that they are independent. They voted for Trump but also policies that were more progressive. They could articulate ideas like everyone should earn enough tonest so a higher minimum wage is good. They went through a bunch of such issues where I could not and say yep. And they gave good reasons
But always came back to also voting for Trump. Even when the just had a discussion favoring policies Trump is against. I never heard any justification for it. They’re not independent, they’re brainwashed, they can’t connect the logic
Is there any reason to believe that he wouldn't vote for him a 3rd time?
i had to eat notebook paper as a child, suffer beatings, and survive homelessness. pull yourself up by your bootstraps and get good, i guess?
