[Alt-Text] Spongebob reminds us the tried and true way to get Fascists' goats, is to call them weird. Their fragile egos simply can't take it.

I don't know who needs to see this. Trump has explicitly identified himself as a fascist at this point. Upsetting fascists' fragile egos is the best rhetorical way to get at them. In short, call them weird.

The DNC consultants are trying their hardest to sink Kamala's and Walz's campaign. Get this message in an email or a fax or a billboard to as many people as we can. We need to hit Trump where it hurts in these last few days to get him off balance. edit: typo

Call him weird, point out how people keep leaving his rallies early, point out his supporters don't even like him and are just using him. Stuff that can only bother a malignant narcissist like Trump.

Originally I didn't like wielding 'weird' as a weapon against MAGAs because I generally consider it okay to be weird and I am not insulted if someone calls me weird.

But then I saw how much in infuriates the right despite being a pretty light and toothless label. They HAVE to believe that they are the normal ones, once you point out how strange and out of touch they are they lose their minds. I think it helps normal people understand who they really are.

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with being weird. I'm weird. It's the fact that it shatters their egos is what makes it so effective. They have to think of themselves as normal or else they'll have a melt down.

Being weird is Trump's only redeeming quality, so Imma call him that as a compliment.

It will be devastating to him even as a compliment so please do.
