Irony is dead with these morons

[-] nocturne213@lemm.ee 49 points 1 year ago

So is ethics.

[-] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

It’s all projection. Repubes are guilty of exactly what they accuse everyone else for.

[-] TheJims@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

And am I the only one amused by the fact her name is Rona?

[-] neoman4426@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

She also got bullied into dropping the "Romney" from her name because Trump didn't like her uncle Mitt

“The Democat Party is so spiteful they named their manufactured virus after me”

Sad this doesn’t seem like such a stretch

[-] paddirn@lemmy.world 63 points 1 year ago

The entire GOP is just one big criminal operation. They’re hardly even a political party anymore, they have no real political philosophy, no coherent platform, their entire strategy relies on obstruction and wrecking the entire process. Their arguments and deals are never in good faith, they’re essentially foreign agents working to paralyze American democracy.

this is just describing the right. it's funny we call them right and left. when in reality 'mostly good' and 'mostly evil' would be far more accurate. however people don't want to be identified as openly voting for the mostly evil party. So it stays left and right.

I think it's flipping from left vs right to reality accepting vs reality denying...

At the recent national debate, the question was asked of the Republican candidates if they would support a convicted felon for president and almost every single one of them raised their hand. This lady's clown make up is applied a little too subtle.

Every conservative accusation is a confession.

If the Republican is calling Democrats 'Pro-Criminal', that makes me think that Republicans are the Pro-Criminal Party as we all know they love to project their sins.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Nah, their criminals are some of the most amateurish I've ever seen.

“Trump voters, Republican voters – we want safety,” McDaniel explained. “We want fentanyl to be removed from the streets.

I mean Republicans did a great job eliminating marijuana, cocaine, meth, heroin, ecstacy, acid, salvia, shrooms, and peyote as well as dismantling the underground drug network. Can't see why they wouldn't be just as effective against a drug manufactured within the US and easily smuggled in through legal ports of entry.

[-] DrPop@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

They believe the only way is to lock up the victims of drug addiction rather than going after the source. As long as they believe in punishment fixes problems we'll have a long tough road ahead.

[-] some_guy 1 points 1 year ago

Shows what you know. I've never been able to attain any of those drugs. Not even once. /s

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

They really do spare no effort manufacturing their own reality.

[-] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

Idiot probably thinks pro-rehabilitation is supporting criminal behavior. There is one type of criminal I think should recieve cruel and unusual punishment and that is corrupt traitor politicians. So basically the GOP.

[-] Nougat@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Nobody should receive cruel and unusual punishment.

[-] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

What are you, pro-criminal?

[-] Nougat@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I'm anti cruel and unusual punishment.

[-] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 23 points 1 year ago

Yes, we are pro-criminal Trump, instead of pro-president Trump.

[-] Binthinkin@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

She probably takes money and gifts like a grifter, troll, fraud.

Oh wait she’s a Romney? She definitely takes money for favors.

[-] TunaCowboy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

The Romney family has a rich history demonstrating a near prodigious ability for exploitation, any grift or side deals are pocket change in comparison.

[-] books@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Well if you want to spew bullshit unchecked, she was on the right program

[-] sndmn@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

If it weren't for double standards they'd have no standards at all.

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.

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.
