Donald Trump #wingnut #pratt #conspiracy #homophobia

Trump said that Renee Good was a paid agitator on the day of the shooting. Before he could have received a detailed report on what happened and likely before he knew anything at all. If there is some secret information that Trump has access to that shows that Good was paid then it should be made public, otherwise Trump should shut up.

Lauren Chen #wingnut

She was never moving towards him.
Ignoring that though there is a more fundamental problem. He walked in front of the car while she wasn’t moving. ICE agents are not supposed to get in front of cars for several reasons, including the risk of people driving at them. An officer can’t put himself in a dangerous situation and then claim the situation justifies shooting somebody.

We have women soccer players demand equal pay despite playing less games as another clear example.

When this was a controversy back in 2015 the women’s national team was bringing in more money then the men’s national team but getting paid less then half the salary.
He does have a little bit of a point about the draft in that female politicians have dodged the issue but not much of one. The reason is that conservative men have acted to keep women from the draft while at the same time complaining that women are not equal as long as they are not drafted. Double standards in that regards are not just limited to women.

Parents With Inconvenient Truths about Trans #transphobia #wingnut

If you think experts on Trans issues are reading the same script your not really listening. They argue and disagree all the time, you just object to the whole topic.

Clif High #crackpot #ufo #dunning-kruger #conspiracy

Creating a model for large scale human interaction that is useful is beyond our capacity. Trying to create a model for non-human intelligence you don’t understand but you think is smarter then you is obviously absurd. Your just mirroring how you think a god would act back to yourself and calling it a sophisticated model.

China may not be happy about it but they also saw what happened to the USSR. If the situation gets that bad they will scale down their military to the point that it’s enough to keep the population under control and no more. They don’t need a lot of expensive ships and planes and missiles to keep the country under control, they can cut military spending way back.

@Lucilius #245971

It’s debatable how well the Chinese economy is doing. Since the housing collapse in China their internal economy has not been doing well, they are trying to grow the economy through exports. To do this they are subsidizing exports to the point it’s cutting into their internal economy. So their economy is showing growth but the people of China are not better off, at least not as much as they should be.

Stephen Miller #wingnut

He is also grossly wrong because he is making a bully argument. The US beat up a weaker country and Miller is now fishing around for a justification for doing it. The best argument he can come up with is “How dare you be friends with somebody other then us, we will beat you until you call us your friend.” It isn’t an argument for building actually allies, it builds a fragile empire that breaks apart and becomes a lot of enemies as soon as the other countries can.

INCOGMAN #conspiracy #racist #homophobia #wingnut

He has a bit of truth in that Trump is doing this over an understanding of oil economics left over from the 80s not because of drug cartels. The rest is a huge spew of conspiracy theories dumped on top.

Anonymous #sexist #homophobia

What she is doing here is attributing all of the problems of patriarchy, status, wealth and power to patriarchy. Labeled that way just fixing gender problems won’t fix the patriarchal system because all of the abuse of status, wealth and power will still exist. Variations of this issue are common among radfems, who often attribute all of the evil in the world to men.

Mora Grace #fundie #conspiracy

First paragraph has some truth to it. Then wanders off into conspiracy theory area that makes no sense. In general the capacity of human water redirection is insignificant compared to what a major storm can drop.

Vladimir Putin and Ramzan Kadyrov #sexist

Putin’s taking this up now because Russia needs children. Population growth was already negative before the war, the war with Ukraine has had a terrible effect hollowing out adult male population. The state has starting encouraging marriage and promoting having children.

Donald J. Trump #crackpot #wingnut

The end result will likely be Afghanistan all over again. The US won’t invest the time or money to actually fix the country, eventually the population will turn against the US forces and companies in the country. 10, 20 years down the road the US will pull out, Venezuela will nationalize the oil industry again. Importantly though, this will all happen long after Trump is out of office so it won’t be his problem.

US Vice-President J.D. Vance #conspiracy #racist #wingnut

Vance doesn’t believe a word of this. He is just playing up to the far right because he thinks he needs their support next election. Vance’s defining feature is his lack of any convictions, he is a political chameleon that will take any position that he thinks will help him. He was anti-extremist right up until he was offered the VP slot behind Trump, then he quietly switched to far right himself.

Tatsuya Ishida #racist #conspiracy #crackpot #dunning-kruger

I notice also he changed Hitler’s mustache to something more stylish by modern standards. Hitler’s little nub of mustache was intentional. That little bit was a mark of WWI soldiers because it was all that they could have under a gas mask.

@Malingspann #245051

Plus the Asian side of WWII had been running for some time before Germany started the conflict in the west. The US, UK and France would have gotten involved in Asia at some point.

Fritz Berggren #fundie #racist

It’s particularly funny trying to pull this absurdity on Moses. Moses had a wife who was not from an Israeli tribe and likely black. Clearly he was not obsessed with nationalism and ethnic purity in the way modern Christian nationalists are.

@Peacemonger373 #244622

In truth they are mostly pissed that Trump is too much of a coward to use the full range of force and violence at his fingertips. Trump has used force only on a small scale against opponents who couldn’t defend themselves, both internally and externally. Internationally, after some dancing around even the Mexican drug cartels was too scary of a target, he decided to pick on Venezuela instead. Internally he is only using force against illegal aliens, who have trouble even defending themselves in court. Against his political opponents it’s only lawsuits that use government money to drain their private finances.

Donald Trump #wingnut #god-complex #dunning-kruger

Most likely somebody at the Navy realized they could get Trump to agree to anything if they called it the “Trump” class ship and told him it will be a flagship. It’s a lot of novel technology so it will be reworked multiple times, probably even before the first two get finished. And notice that the planned date is after Trump leaves office, the Navy probably already has a plan to rename the project once Trump is out of office.

There are sensible arguments to be made for tightening restrictions on Chinese scientists but this isn’t one of them. It’s an emotional appeal based on one case.

He confuses same sex households and households where parents transitioned. Then he complains that studies of same sex households are too small and not independent (which is no longer true) and then does far worse by using stories from children who rejected their parents situation as evidence.

Various Conservatives #wingnut #racist #psycho

I feel like one of the biggest problems Trump is running into right now is all these little courts, they want to throw up little blockages against everything he’s trying to do, whether it be his tariffs or deporting people. So I’m very pro-strong executive, strong leader, strong man.

The US has a very strong president. Both by global standards and in an absolute sense of what he can do. Trump is running into problems with courts because he is trying to break the law. He is trying to run the government the same way he ran his business, do what I order and we will sort it out in court if anybody objects. This is a terrible way to run a national government, causes lots of court cases and does long term damage.

Sounds like a bunch of people trying to one up each other on how tragic their lives are. Very high school behavior. Hopefully they do grow out of it.

Jesse Waters #wingnut #sexist #psycho

This is the most popular foreign policy action of Trump's second term:

Nice phrasing. Every action of Trump’s foreign policy is unpopular but it isn’t surprising that war crimes against contemptible targets is the least unpopular.

various commenters #wingnut #racist

There is something amusing in the fascists preparing themselves for a shift to the left in the US by redefining fascism to include socialism. It’s also dangerous because it shows just how little fascism is grounded in reality. They just make things up to fit into popular movements because fascism is ultimately about being in power. The rest of the principles and history are just lies they tell to get power.

Anon #sexist #racist

Typical zero sum game thinking. Either you are on my side 100% or you are my enemy. The reality is that society is a complex mess of overlapping issues that don’t interact in any neat organization.

Benny Johnson #crackpot #homophobia #wingnut

JOHNSON: But then aren't you [...] implying intent as though like the law somehow like understands how someone is using a word and the laws ... like aren't you playing God, then, in this situation?

Most law involves some judgement of intent even if unspoken.
Yes this can lead to some tricky situations but in reality it’s rarely an issue. If your verbally dancing around the edge of it being a hate crime or not then your probably committing a hate crime. It is usually only when a bit is taken without context that it becomes ambiguous.

Malcolm and Simone Collins #conspiracy #wingnut

Practically speaking, just mentioning Hitler in a Youtube video is risky. Even if you have a history channel it’s likely to get a warning more or less at random. If your channel is at all questionable, and this one is, this is just asking for moderation trouble. Youtube uses heavy handed AI automoderation and it does weird things at times. When presented with a potentially problematic video that is difficult to categorize and bad, like this one, it favors getting rid of them.

Trump said onstage. “Why can’t we have some people from Norway, Sweden, just a few?”

The people in those countries are happier then Americans, why would they come here?

Blood and soil are not realities. They are ideals of those so short sighted they can’t see beyond the plot of land they are tilling today.

everything that appears to be "reasoning" in a moid is a mere post hoc rationalization of base short term instincts

That is annoyingly common for people of both sexes.

Darth Sidious and Trump do line up in the way their bodies decayed in office. For Sidious it was only physical decay while Trump has both mental and physical decay.

VannesteLand #homophobia #fundie #wingnut

You wouldn’t be the first to try. Failure is almost inevitable because the right wing can’t keep up being funny about these things for any length of time. It quickly ends up being mean for the sake of being mean and that isn’t funny.

Declan Finn #homophobia #sexist #ableist #pratt

Every story is a message of some sort. It’s like politics, choosing not to play is itself a political choice. In ways John Wick is just as unrealistic as a whatever gay character has this guys anxiety up. Real assassins tend to be weird loners, not smooth operators. No Country For Old Men is more realistic in that regards but nobody wants to be Anton Chigurh.

Venom S / @PunishedRalsei #psycho

People grooming 15 year olds are not saying there is candy in the van if they climb in. They spend months stalking likely targets online, chatting with them and getting to be their “friends”. It’s the sort of thing adults fall for all the time.

Daniel McAdams #wingnut #racist #transphobia #conspiracy

He is pointing out a real change in the dynamic but totally misunderstand the cause. Younger far right types are less religious then the old school. The old school fundies are often antisemitic but feel that Israel has to exist for Jesus to return and thus they need to support Israel and play nice with Jews. As the old school retires and a new wave of far right rises on social media it’s far more blatantly antisemitic.

Anon #sexist #psycho

Anybody can be groomed, it’s a matter of gaining the targets trust and cutting them off from other people. Children are primed to trust adults and often easy targets. The rest is such garbage and sexism it qualifies as not even wrong.

David F.X. Army and Richard Y. Rodgers #racist #wingnut

As soon as they start talking about blood and soil you know it’s bogus history and bad populism. Blood does not tie you to a particular place or people, people have always moved across those borders. Country borders are arbitrary lines drawn for political organization. Blood and soil is an attempt to build blind nationalism.

Geoffrey Grider #fundie #wingnut #racist #conspiracy

The US is a country sitting on darkness but it’s sitting in the White House. A president who lies at every turn, thinks making fun of him is illegal, builds elaborate legal theories for breaking the law and still people think of him as a great president.

Josh Wittenberg #wingnut #racist

The ultimate version of the backstabbing infiltrator belief. He is such a subtle back stabber that he is just playing at being a good mayor for years to setup his later betrayal. It’s one of those irrefutable ones because even if he never does anything wrong he could just be setting up for betrayal by later Muslims.

Paul Bury #wingnut #conspiracy #dunning-kruger

Why are they allowed to spend more money than we have?

The Republicans like to play this game where they claim tax cuts will pay for themselves through economic growth. Then, when the tax cuts turn out to lower the government revenue, they claim they are forced to reduce government services to get the budget under control.
The Republicans could solve the problems by raising taxes, closing tax dodges used by the rich/corporations, or cutting the military budget but for some reason those options are always off the table.
Plus, Trump is claiming that his tariffs are bringing in a huge amount of money but that isn’t available for paying anything.

Vox Day and Steve Bannon #wingnut #psycho #conspiracy

@Peacemonger373 #240852

The problem with hoping Trump fails medically is that arguably he already has and a group around Stephen Miller, some of the cabinet and some of the Project 2025 guys are really running things. Trump’s father had dementia and thought he was running the company for years but really they put him in a big fancy office, gave him the NY Times every day and had his secretary put meaningless forms for him to sign on his desk.

The 22nd amendment doesn’t work like that. It prevents you from being elected, even if somebody else held power during your term. The awkward wording of the second sentence has nothing to do with what this guy is talking about, it has to do with VPs who take over the presidency.
There are some ways to game the system by getting Trump in office without him being elected but that would depending on somebody else winning the election and stepping aside for Trump. Trump would be back stabbed by anybody around him if he tries that.
