Republicans are scum

"Hey, guys, I figured out how to make our poverty and sickness rates go down with this one weird trick." - Republicans, apparently.

The xenophobia and the eugenics are synergizing in horrific ways I couldn’t even previously comprehend

grinddad.bsky.social•1 day ago

Now the question is, how do each of us step up so children with cancer in our communities aren’t deported?

This shit, all this shit, makes me think of this news barely more than a week into this accursed second term:

mourn-the-weenie.bsky.social•21 hours ago

In the depths of my hatred, madness, cynicism, and sadness years and years ago I had surmised that if Trump ever truly consolidated power his admin would be killing kids with treatable diseases, deporting them for kicks, so they could die there and the fuckwits who did it can glory in their deaths.

kylejonesiv.bsky.social•1 day ago

Save the kids though right? 🤢

They’re gone. Only MAGA remains.

i was raised Republican. What is happening now is what I was raised to believe ought to happen.

longhair.bsky.social•1 day ago

So this was always the eventual goal (so far)?

gengaara.bsky.social•1 day ago

They have always wanted to be fascists. Dems helped make it even more probable by moving so far right fascism wasn't all that far right of them. In a duopoly, it was probably inevitable.

longhair.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah, I understand it in this climate. I'm more curious about 70's/80's Republicans. Maybe even into the 90's. Being Canadian, I wasn't inside the bubble growing up like someone like Robert was.

emeraldkittycat.bsky.social•1 day ago

I was raised in the 70’s/80’s. I don’t think most Republicans I knew had bowing to a dictator on their to do list. However, all the Republicans I knew were white, and white cultural dominance was in no way challenged at that time.

jaz.foxthing.gay•1 day ago

Yes
Leftist been screaming this forever, and liberals called us crazy for listening and reporting what they are saying.

zoobmer.bsky.social•1 day ago

what is the difference between liberals and leftists and which one actually tried to prevent this scurge by supporting Harris?

jaz.foxthing.gay•1 day ago

>click, profile, see pinned tweet
>Both sides the left and right

Not falling for this bait, try again

longhair.bsky.social•1 day ago

You're blaming leftists that didn't vote for Harris for a very sound reason? Really?

Be a shame if some suicidal geese took one for the team on that return flight from Italy.

paulmcseol.bsky.social•1 day ago

At some point, his followers have to break away, right? I know he’s got a core group of awful people, but most of them have to be horrified by this I’d hope.

kestrelthered.bsky.social•20 hours ago

There's plenty of them who will hear about this, and they'll be suitably sad and upset for a few minutes. Then they'll shrug and say, "What can you do? Accidents happen."

vexogen.protogen.club•1 day ago

Some actually are. Some are okay with a "transitional dictatorship" but there's definitely people who think he's gone too far, if even just economically.

Enough people? Not sure yet but there is buyer's remorse

meamdal.bsky.social•1 day ago

Nope. All 77 million of them want all of this

iwriteok.bsky.social•1 day ago

no about 35% of the country is evil beyond what most people can comprehend

longhair.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yup. They don't want to represent, they want to rule.

hexbear.bsky.social•23 hours ago

As things are looking increasingly horrifying, I am somehow shocked how heartless some people can be. You’re shockingly not wrong on this and that is horrifying.

tommyiykyk.bsky.social•1 day ago

I keep telling people this. And I'm only going off my interactions with fellow tradesmen in Chicago of all places.

A lot of them are aggressively racist and ignorant and proud of it.

mysteriousgrayart.bsky.social•1 day ago

They'd have to be aware of it first. Even if they were, their minds are so deep in denial and so filled with hate against other innocent people that they'll just call it "collateral damage".

Scum would be an improvement because scum is a part of the natural ecosystem.

jkot.bsky.social•1 day ago

Ya but we aren't talking about that kind of scum.... you do know words can mean more than one thing right?

bitshammer.bsky.social•1 day ago

I do understand that and do you understand how word association works and how by saying scum is useful I am implying that Republicans are not?

thenotoriousmjb.bsky.social•1 day ago

What does ‘condescending’ mean?

thenotoriousmjb.bsky.social•1 day ago

Between this and the charity he defrauded, seems like Trump hates kids with cancer.

Probably because they provide more value to society.

doncomer.bsky.social•14 hours ago

When I was a boy,
Senator Joseph McCarthy
warned us all about
the dangers of
communist totalitarianism.
The right-wingers still
hate commies,
but they have taken
a second look at
totalitarianism &
find it mighty sweet.

And on trans rights, abortion, it’s “ThInk AbOUt tHe ChIldrENs !” Liars, hypocrites and sadists, all of them.

There is no acceptable outcome to this that does not involve the current administration being in prison and the GOP being a dead organization

wyrdandnerdy.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Oh "If only Trump knew".

No seriously though-- I bet he doesn't know. And I bet no one will ever be able to convince him no matter the evidence. That somehow makes it more fucked up.

asexualpringlescan.bsky.social•1 day ago

This is such a horrifying thing do that if I wrote in fiction it would be called "cartoonishly evil". Words fail to describe how cruel this is

zoobmer.bsky.social•1 day ago

the only difference between unrealistic cartoon villains and cartoonishly evil people who exist IRL is that the former is proud of how evil they are, while the latter rationalizes it as "looking out for their own."

I've heard Republicans say, "If Trump does x, me and a lot of other Republicans are going to stop supporting him." They might believe that, but it's not true. If it were possible for Trump to go too far for them, it would've happened a long time ago.

thelushkitch.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Yup. Undeniably true at this point.

republicans are a scourge yet people refused to vote for Democrats because they didn't live up to their impossibly idealistic views.

bozocomo.bsky.social•1 day ago

"Impossibly idealistic" is doing a lot of work there, especially when most of the demands of the American left basically just describe western Europe. But go off.

davidajax.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Biden award the contract the would facilitate sending undocumented people to Guantanamo.
Democrats ran on gun rights, border security, embraced and paraded Liz Cheney's endorsement.
The bar was on the ground and democrats tripped over it.

zoobmer.bsky.social•16 hours ago

wait, what? then why is the only thing people talked about the fact Harris wasn't going to stop the war in Palestine?

davidajax.bsky.social•15 hours ago

That was the loudest complaint but far from the only issue. I voted for Harris and told everyone I could why they should too but at some point "vote for us because we're not him" just makes people pathetic

davidajax.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Apathetic*
They really do need to let us edit these things.

sapphicradagon.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Impossibly idealistic like “don’t try to match republicans’ desire for mass deportations” and “protect trans rights” and “please stop giving bombs to people to commit genocide with”

So, uh, completely unrelated, I'm taking a firearm safety course next week. My firearm knowledge is woefully outdated, my having joined the professional managerial class 30 years ago and lost touch with my cattle ranching roots. What's the 2025 equivalent of the Winchester 30-30?

bozocomo.bsky.social•1 day ago

Just get an AR and practice.

I'm in Canada, my friend. We are, um, a tad more restrained. I'm thinking something that passes for a hunting rifle.

Savage 110 shooting either .308 or 6.5 creedmoor if bolt action is your thing. If you go for one of the marksman style set ups they can get pricey. Get some good glass for it and it can be accurate out to 1km.
