Dude I really want to say thank you for getting this group really running, and more importantly, letting it be really crazy people and not just ' My uncle said something pro Trump' like the last one devolved into

[–] thantik@lemmy.world 111 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I mean, people saying things pro trump are crazy, we've all just kind of acclimated to it, sadly.

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

Yeah I want ADVANCED crazy

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

IDK man, did you watch any of Jordan Klepper's coverage of Trump events over the last several years? Most of the highlights for me land somewhere between unbelievably batshit crazy and herniatingly hilarious.

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Sovcit crazy is mooring.

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago (1 children)

True but it got old. And more importantly half the posts that ended up as the top post of the day there were just... Yay Trump. Not any kind of fun crazy like rambling on about that worm medicine or whatever the fuck it was.

I want fun to read crazy like this. Not crazy that reminds me of reality lol

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Exactly this.

The other night I burst out laughing when I remembered Giuliani’s 2020 press conference at the Four Seasons Philadelphia. Doofuses saw “Four Seasons” in probably an ancient paper phonebook and thought it was going to be the upmarket hotel or the upmarket restaurant.

Cut to America’s Mayor in front of a green warehouse run by Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

They could not have tried something this audacious on Veep let alone House of Cards. It would not have been believable.

On the other hand, then, everything wild, unlikely, overwrought, and ethically appalling in Veep and House of Cards is now within plausibility and reminds me too much of reality.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

We've gone past 'plausibility.' The lead character in House of Cards clandestinely commits murder in the first season. We have a former president and possible future president who brags that he could murder someone and get away with it.

You're most welcome! I'm glad people are enjoying.

Facebook to me is terrible as a social media site but is also like a wonderful diary full of gossip and trash and crazy that I read like a novel. The things people will post about themselves publicly under their real name will never cease to amaze me.

Awww also I love that you think I'm a dude.

[–] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

You have to be, there are no dudettes on the internet.

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 10 months ago

You’re not a princess. You’re a damned queen. Thank you for this garbage you source and keep showing us. I hate myself for enjoying it so much. 🍿

This is what has led me to hate most of humanity. Not just those people, but the people who enjoy watching it happen. How is that so entertaining? It's like the people who watch honey boo boo, or nikki minaj or whatever...why do you find that trash entertaining instead of just hopelessly worrying?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I spend a lot of time on Facebook dog whistling white supremacists to convince them that a vote for Joe Biden will kick off race war (and it works they vote for him!), as well as getting their accounts blown up for posting Nazi shit, as well as telling law enforcement on them. THAT'S depressing as fuck, so reading about sovereign citizens is my amusement.

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 10 months ago

Holy shit. I love beating a shitty system using its own shitty methods.

My blue state has closed primaries and I have less fear of a Haley presidency than The Trumpire Strikes Back. Do I change my party registration to Republican in order to finally make my vote count for once even though Haley’d shellack Biden?

[–] thantik@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean...yeah that's great and all, but aren't you realizing that...you know...you're sitting there reading Nazi shit and following a bunch of skinheads?

Why keep that kind of company just for laughs?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Not for laughs. So I can fuck up their shit. I've really done a lot of good doing this.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It provides an almost tangible measure of how not-insane and relatively normal I am.

[–] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

This place is essentially just the SovCit zoo right now.

Not that I’m complaining.
