Alright, we did it guys. We waited out social media until it all flopped, surely message boards will be back en vogue!

I'm struck by how fundamentally stupid people like this are.  They literally can't execute even a shadow of critical thinking.  They do not read, like, at all.  Not even romance novels or other pop-lit.  They don't read the Wall Street Journal.  They don't even read the Washington Times.  Everything they get as far as information comes from Fox News and YouTube/Facebook.  There's no intellectual curiosity, or for that matter, ability.  They're scared and stupid and that's just how the fascists like them to be. 

Yeah it's not just the qanon nut jobs anymore, anyone who still calls themselves a republican believes at least 50% of the nonsense.

that chick Lara logan who just a few years ago seemed to be a fairly respectable journalist at CBS, was on the pillow guys show recently talking about how hundreds of thousands of kids are being trafficked by Biden specifically so they can drink their blood. 

I'll chalk some of her fall from grace to what happened to her in the Arab spring and she needs major mental help now but literally millions of people legit believe this.

Pretty sure she was a mental case before that but what I'm seeing and hearing from the GOP, at least down here, is it's 99% who believe the bullshtein.   Every idiotic conspiracy theory, every lie, everything the GOP utters is truth and everything else is a lie. 

It's amazing how quickly this county devolved into this, but maybe not so surprising after all.

red pilling has happened to everyone...its more likely to happen to someone stupid with no college degree but plenty of educated, cultured people like laura logan are deep deep down the conspiratorial hole

thats how you get an assassination attempt on nancy pelosi

This guy has a punchable face. Maybe someone will hit HIM with a hammer.

My school got a new student from Mariupol Ukraine. She apparently just started today. Gotta be so farging hard to have your life blown up and flee to a foreign country and be put in a new school full of 1000 American kids at 14 years old, all within the span of less than a year

i cannot wait until some dumb white funhole from the suburbs loses her mind because she needs a permission slip from her priest to get birth control while her secretary state of choice refuses to certify a democratic election victory...you get what you deserve

[Rome]

If DeSantis wins on Tuesday my daughter is leaving this state for good.  As bad as his first term was, the next one will be infinitely worse.  My sister in Philly offered her a place to stay while she gets her feet on the ground up there.  The strange thing is PA might not be any better than Florida if the GOP seizes power up there. 

I feel so bad for her right now.

i was at the fetterman biden shapiro obama rally

braindead frankenstein was just kind of slurring some random thoughts out. not good.

it wasnt even close obama got the most cheers, he was the last one to speak too. good sign for the party that a guy who hasnt been in office in 6 years is your most popular person.

i had a nice little chat with gisele fetterman, met tom wolf and malcom kenyatta. wolf gives a good handshake.

tuesday is going to suck but i think shapiro will win at least

One great thing about the Phillies run is it softened the blow leading up to today. Fully expecting a house/senate MAGA takeover. The local elections are even scarier. Running across the street on my lunch break to vote. It's been a good run fellas. RIP America 🇺🇸

Are you telling me that GF and my Anabaptist cousins in Pennsyltucky are going to actually elect that charlatan snake oil peddler to the Senate?

Fetterman shouldn't have done that debate. He should have lied and said he had covid. Democracy as we know it is essentially over starting today.
