"Come on! I know I joined the immigrant-hating party but I didn't think they were going to hurt my form of immigrant exploitation! Indentured servants and slaves, people! Not deportation!"

Democrats: "Pay transparency laws increase pay for workers across the board!"

Republicans: "YES! Exactly! Finally we agree on something! This is why we fought so hard to block them!"

So let me get this straight: Stephen Miller is so universally hated that if he doesn't house himself on a protected military base, he fears for his life and family. His response to this is to double down on his continuous campaign of human rights violations‽

Dude! You can only live "safe" like that for three more years. Not even that long if Trump dies of a stroke/heart attack (which seems increasingly likely). Vance isn't going to protect you like this!

Now's the time to start making friends in Nazi sympathizing countries.

I guess it's just too late for all those children that viewed porn. The piles of their dead bodies must be enormous!

When he says, "They'd have much better health coverage" he's talking about the rich people. Not normal people!

He doesn't consider normal people, people.

Excellent defense: "You sent me the packets revealing where all the other players were. If you didn't want me to know they were behind walls why did you tell me precisely where they were?"

Yeah, doing such checks on the server side of things is more computationally intensive but it would solve that problem entirely and you wouldn't need client-side anti-cheat bullshit anymore.

The first rule of network programming is never trust the client. How does anti-cheat software work? By trusting the client.

Surely they can't all be this dumb.

After a few decades following American politics you'll realize that yes, yes they can all be that dumb.

Just have a general conversation with your most conservative neighbors about basically anything and you'll quickly learn that there's nothing they don't have an opinion on and their level of ignorance is... Impressive.

Like, dude, you're 60+ years old and you think hurricanes are a conspiracy‽ The point where they lost their mind was long ago.

Sooner or later you can't help but wonder if they ever had sanity or they just faked it long enough to have a career/survive until retirement.

We are merely at the beginning of this revolution! Soon AI artists will be generating whole gifs of Sonic giving birth to Borat and eventually, feature-length movies!

What a wonderful future awaits us!

No, actually. The current GOP stance on compulsory schooling is, "no". They really don't believe every child should be educated.

I'm not even talking about kids with special needs or "just minorities". They really don't believe in compulsory education. It's considered government overreach.

The ideal GOP educational system is 100% private and only those who can afford it get to go. They couldn't care less about literacy rates.

They want the Bible taught in schools but they don't want kids to actually read it. That would reveal what's in it (liberal stuff everywhere!), after all.

No no you don't get it. The point is to hoard the movies. Not to watch them!

They're like Steam games: You collect more than you play.

That's not a problem. Anyone can campaign at any time. That's totally legal and fine.

What's absolutely absurd is the level of support he still gets from Republicans! He owns them.

If some former Democrat president did this stuff the support from Democrats for that person would be near zero. No one would consider such a candidacy even remotely within the realm of possibility.

Republicans just don't give a shit about corruption. Some will see this statement and say, "no, they care about it when it's not one of their people" but that's 100% the same thing. Corruption is all about picking winners and losers based on what your side thinks of them.
