It’s gonna be dr oz.

You called it.

Can’t infiltrate the willing.

I’m pointing out y’all don’t give a shit when a Dem does it.

And I’m pointing out (among other things) that you don’t know that to be true.

I’m not excusing shit.

OK.

Deep Cut whataboutism

The same people attacking Trump’s picks had no issue with Obama letting Citibank pick all of his people for him.

Really, you know that? Down to the last person? Pretty impressive.

Also - can you remind me when Obama was last in office?

Because it seems to me the time to complain about Obamas picks was when Obama was in office.

How about folks who weren’t even voting age then? Do they also need to STFU about Trump confirming what everyone already knew by making garbage choices for his cabinet based primarily on their likelihood to support his fascist goals? How does the 8 year old Obama whataboutism come into play in that scenario?

Just so we’re clear, that woman (the Baby Got Back woman) is actually the woman from 2LiveCrew’s “Me So Horny”, who is really an audio sample from the movie Full Metal Jacket.

The “Me So Horny” sample was also featured three years later, when Sir Mix-a-Lot included the sample in “Baby Got Back”.

This is the kind of information that should not be forgotten to the mists of time.

(Just kidding, it’s totally the kind of thing that would be OK to forget, but I wanted to point it out anyway.)

It’s essentially normalized now AFAICT.

with zero actual content.

💯

Remember last time Trump was in power our feeds were full of Republicans behaving poorly in public? (in between the police beating protesters through most of 2020) - looks like we’re going to get that back again now.

TL;DR Trump will face no consequences as expected.

FUUCK. You are almost certainly correct.

Loved Floyd in my youth. Now most of their stuff just depresses me. Their lyrics are too genuine, too accurate.

Ok ok I’ll acknowledge that you are right. It doesn’t feel like much of a check when gestures around but I’ll grant that you are the best kind of correct.

LOL let’s see something actually get blocked before we conclude that. This is merely a delay.

No one in power will give a shit until it looks like it might hurt the bottom line of the billionaire class.

As long as they keep profiting from keeping us all buried in debt, nothing will change.

Interestingly I can no longer see my own comment that you replied to when I click the link for it, though I can see it when I open a private window to it. That’s pretty weird. I checked the modlog and nothing…

Guess how well my votes up to now have worked. Maybe the 2024 election will be what helps Dems decide they are done enabling what is represented in OP, and they will present me with something other than Republican Light in 2026 (and 2028).

I can agree with that, but I’m not sure it will happen. And like most people I’m too busy trying to keep a non-negative balance in the checkbook to do much about it.

Well, since our two countries are identical in every way it only makes sense that we could snap our fingers and do the same here.

Or discouraging everyone from voting by saying someone is “Republican light”

I voted for Kamala. She was still Republican Light. It pissed me off watching her run to the right, it pissed me off having to vote for a Republican Light platform, it pissed me off that it lost her the election, and now we have fucking crazy man in the whitehouse again because they decided she needed to be more like R not less.

I’m not voting Republican Light again. Next time I’ll be one of the ones getting yelled at I guess. If we’re going to keep ratcheting right, I’m at least not going to support it.
