Hol up. Telling me that the right wing doesn't read, can't tell history from fiction, and judges things based on feelings? Hmm 🤔
If I could have just one superpower it would be to make these clowns feel the acute embarrassment that they should be feeling.
I'm not sure that'd be my pick, but it's a good one.
It's a good thing @IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.wtf chose it then so the rest of us can stick with teleportation or flight or whatever
Those things are pretty neat but imagine giving Trump a dose of self-awareness mid-rant followed by his immediate resignation and surrender to the authorities.
Pretty sure if he felt the shame and embarrassment he deserves for his actions he wouldn't even make it two steps before his heart gave out.
There must be a downside?
The actually semi-intelligent demons that are pulling his strings slide the next puppet into place, and the show goes on.
Vance is up next if Trump kicks the bucket mid stride, and he's as much a piece of shit as Trump, just less of a paper trail.
Oh, can you imagine if suddenly they all, including Trump, and McConnell, woke up filled with all the SHAME of everything they've shamelessly done in their life, all at once? Alito and Thomas.... And the billionaires too....
Like when the inmates of Arkham were temporarily given empathy?
Except permanently. Because if it wore off they'd be worse than ever out of rage
I actually wouldn't be surprised if there was a historical Achilles; the city of Troy did exist, and seems to have been razed, so some form of the Trojan War seems to have happened. I'd expect them to be like King Arthur, though, where the stories we have about them are almost completely divorced from reality.
he is a newsmax host for a reason.
