This is what I was waiting for.
Faced with a black/asian woman, the Republicans just aren’t going to be able to help themselves - their hateful bigotry is going to keep rearing its ugly head.
The key moment is going to be when Candidate Lardbucket himself lets some of his own racism and misogyny fall out of his festering gob. That’s going to be glorious.
They went from zero to fully mask-off in less than 24 hours. I’m amazed at the quickness of it.
If you were in a red state during the Obama campaign/presidency you wouldn’t be surprised.
Yeah, the overly racist shit that popped up all over rural NV was pretty disgusting.
Honestly, I am too.
I fully expected it, but not this soon.
Looking forward to more though. Every one of these is just more votes against Trump.
My hope is not to change them. But it is to change their children. Or those adjacent. If we keep trying to change them, we will never win.
The propaganda machine was full throttle on Biden is old and unfit, that as soon as switch happened Republicans were scrambling to grab onto the first thing they could come up with, of course racism and misogyny are the fallbacks.
I’d almost say they’re the default.
I’ve personally seen the “Genocide Joe” voices smoothly transition into “unhinged prosecutor” in no time flat.
I’d say that they’ve been mask-off for quite a while tbh.
Stayed mask off through the worst of covid, only put masks on to protest like little proud boys.
“they”
Little fish are taking these early bites. Don’t play along.
I hear you and want to believe this too, but I am forever surprised at how much pro Trumpers are willing to ignore and just how many of them there are. His base will cheer him on and the rest will make excuses or turn a blind eye.
I hope I’m wrong
You’re not. There has not been any room left for doubt for nearly a decade that he is anything but an opportunistic racist misogynistic queerphobic ableist christofascist grifter. Those who already support him will continue to cheer him on because he feeds directly in to their need to feel superior to “others”, and no one still on the fence is going to suddenly have an epiphany…
He is also a convicted felon and has a civil judgement of being a rapist.
Adjudicated rapist just doesn’t have the same ring to it
willing to ignore
Ignore? I have it on unfortunately good authority that at least a decent chunk of his base agree with what he is spouting and are loving how he “speaks the truth” or “says what they’re all thinking”. Sadly he’s enabling more and more of them to feel comfortable saying the quiet part out loud and acting on their impulses.
Where I come from, if you speak like the GOP does you’d get shot at.
Do you guys have any vacancies?
He’s losing extremists to his VP pick having a immigrant wife and mixed race kids, and he’s losing moderate with his VP pick who is an extremist.
He’s soon to lose a huge amount of women over bodily autonomy, he’s promised to build concentration camps for Latinos, he’s literally citing ‘operation wetback’ as a mission statement. He’s gonna really eat shit when he’s the old idiot that can’t talk right versus the average mental acuity displayed by an opponent who is too young to retire, and has public speaking skills beyond the average 12 year old.
This is blowing up so severely, he’s already panicking.
operation wetback
Come again?
Also, why did my keyboard let me swipe “wetback”? Racist-ass keyboard.
An Eisenhower-era deportation program that set up the current dynamic of militarized deportation and border control.
Republican Missouri secretary of state candidate Valentina Gomez just went on an unhinged rant attacking Vice President Kamala Harris on X, where she called her a “little wh*re,” as conservatives posted misogynist memes and jokes about Harris.
“Kamala Harris slept her way to the top, and Tulsi Gabbard already destroyed and exposed her in 2020. Kamala is just another DEI hire, and President Trump is going to eat her alive,” she said in a video.
I hate to break it to you but you’re never going to be racist or sexist enough to be fully accepted by them…
lol A token GOP minority female is calling Kamala a DEI hire. FFS
This psycho was just in the news for attaching her Democratic opponent for “raising a groomer” because one of her grandkids is trans. She makes Marjorie Taylor Green look polite by comparison, and the shame of it is that, given how state-level politics have been trending in Missouri, she’s got a decent shot of winning in the general just because of the magic ®.
I’m originally from Missouri. There are a fuckton of racists there that will be cheering this on.
I also grew up in Missouri, though I live in Kansas now, and I know several people who fit that description.
The thing that kills me about Missouri is that it used to be a competitive state for moderate Democrata, but the rural chunks of the state fell victim to right wing populism during the Tea Party wave in 2010 and now there’s a whole generation of Missourians whose defining political characteristic is rancorous hate for “liberal” city people. Kansas’ politics aren’t great, either, but at least the rural voters care about farm issues here… In Missouri, particularly south of I-70 where the only real industry they ever had was lead mining, all that’s left is the hate they’ve been fed from right wing assholes.
Knowing republicans, is she projecting? 🤔
Nah. This lady clearly didn’t sleep her way to the top.
My guy, the GOP is so full of hate that they’d have to ascend to get to misogyny.
This is a female GOP candidate as well. Like, WTF.
Dwarkin isn’t the most well liked feminist on by any side, but she did write a whole book about that sort of thing.
Keep your powder dry. “Little whore” is going to seem mild compared to what’s coming.
Harris has to run a smart campaign. A competence revolution. An adult is there to take the wheel.
Descends into? As if they haven’t been drowning in misogyny for decades
Lmao, i was going to comment, ‘descends? My sibling in satan, they’ve always been there’
(even the Satanists don’t want anything to do with them)
I read that hearing Morgan Freeman…
I’d also challenge “unhinged” - the oppressive systems we all live under are designed to make this shit the norm, they not only breed and encourage racism, misogyny and the rest, but reward those with the privilege and sense of entitlement it gives who do them “best”, it’s why people in such positions can and do say such things, and suffer absolutely zero consequences.
(to be clear, I’m not condoning the behaviour or saying it’s ok in any way, just that these people are not “unhinged”, they are acting exactly in the way white supremacist patriarchal capitalism normalises and encourages them to)
“Further into”
This is the same candidate who filmed an ad where she is running with a bulletproof vest, a pistol and a rifle down the streets and then says “in America you can be anything you want, so don’t be weak and gay” and tagged Andrew Tate on it.
It seems she’s amping up the Marjorie Taylor green strategy of saying the most outrageous offensive shit to trigger the libs and rally her bigoted base.
$5 says she calls Kamala’s VP pick a pedophile.
If you need a fiver you can just ask, buddy
I could use a fiver my dear pal.
Bet you $5 you don’t
Thats very subjective, i could use a fiver friend. So i take that bet
in america…be anything you want
Except urself if you’re gay cuz thats one of muh rulez that you have to live by
That’s basically always the case for these “freedum” lovers or free speech stans. You’re free to do, believe, say and read whatever you want - as long as it’s exactly what we want you to do, believe, say and read.
Pretty sure she’s secretly trans like all projecting gops.
This is excellent. They have absolutely nothing of substance to use as ammunition. They will have only their bigotry and absurd conspiracy theories as we head into election season.
Biden is a national treasure for this.
Yeah, I dont see how this will do anything but put off the moderate republicans the MAGA cultists will go more extreme but those are lost anyway, but I assume there are plenty of registered Republicans who will be put off by the GOP tactics
This shows that the GOP is playing angry white man identity politics. If you aren’t that you aren’t welcome
I went sleuthing last night. Skimming some pertinent imageboards/forums, looking for the spin they’d be going with. I encountered sheer panic and they got nothing, except misogyny/racism and the lame claim she isn’t a mother. That’s it - for now.
E.g. on /pol/ they were trolling themselves with a supposedly deceased Biden because he went AWOL for 5 days or something. LMAO.
That is outstanding! Thank you for getting your hands dirty for the additional insight and comedy!
Don’t know if we do cake days here, but awesome username and happy cake day! I imagine you’re a fellow reddit refugee :P
Thank you! Yes, I am a Reddit refugee. Please have some cake. I couldn’t possibly eat all of this.
Matt Walsh of all people calling someone a “thoroughly unimpressive human being” is so jarringly ironic it’s hard to process
Matt who?
- She’s not a whore
- There’s nothing wrong with being a whore
She also doesn’t not appear to be especially little.
Usually in my experience, the people who call you a whore want to fuck you the most
Take some Obama racism, mix with some leftover Hilary misogyny, bake for 15 minutes, and ta-da! Anti-Harris campaign all set to be consumed by your average cousin fucking maga voter!
lol come on guys that’s so lazy. Like sure, it’s offensive, but I’m sure she’s genuinely more entertained by the fact that she’s living rent-free in the heads of the racist and sexist portion of America.
And I would like to add: fuck you, trumpians. I am fucking enjoying having the shoe on the other foot. We’ll still give you hurricane repair money or whatever, but I am LOVING that you’re getting even a fraction of what the rest of the country and the world experienced for four fucking years.
… eight ish? or idk what youre referring to
I assume the Trump reign.
Sadly, I’ve seen more than one “Joe and the Ho” bumper sticker over the last 4 years.
So normal GOP stuff?
LOL, bound to happen. They will continue to lose their MINDS if she is in the general. Unhinged. I just hope not many normies fall for the bothsiderist bullshit we are bound to see from the “liberal media” - the same shit they did on Hillary - “many people are saying” that she’s shrill, entitled, she cackles, and other such nonsense so they can appear “balanced” when the alternative is a fascist poised to end freedom of speech by the very same media…

Funnily enough Germany was the richest nation in the years running up to WW1. And then after at least Berlin was one of the most tolerant places in the world before the Nazis came to power. Would still be considered extremely progressive. I do wonder sometimes if the extreme wealth led to progressiveness, WW1 never got to Berlin after all. The Nazis used the decent of the populace into poverty because of the sanctions of Versailles as fire for their cause. Boogymen were provided by the Nazis in the form of minorities such as the Jews to justify abhorrent behaviors.
I see many many similarities in the US today. From wealth disparity to the boogyman of the “immigrants” and so on. Instead of Versailles it’s the sanctions of the environment etc etc.
I would say it has nothing to do with environmental regulations, but with lower taxes for the super rich and other stuff like that, which came from increasing influence of rich people in politics.
That lead to increasing poverty, which (combined with lots of propaganda from media owned by rich people) leads to increasingly radical conservative voters, which only lead to more poverty.
Dude stop, republicans suck and they use the same political tactics as the nazis but they’re nowhere near as horrible than them yet.
