The same stupid motherfuckers that can't emotionally control themselves in the short term,

want de-regulation and remove oversight, so they aren't hindered when they make said stupid knee-jerk decisions.

And these are the idiots you put in charge and follow on decisions that put people's lives in jeopardy?

[-] NotAGamer@lemmy.org 45 points 1 month ago

It's almost like it was a fake fight to distract from all the other shit going on. If only someone would have pointed that out to begin with.

[-] GiveOver@feddit.uk 64 points 1 month ago

Conspiracy bullshit. Sometimes narcissists fall out when their feelings get hurt and they're likely to lash out. Not everything's a "distraction".

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I've been reading comments about how every single thing Trump does is a "distraction" for over 8 years now. No, he's just a chaotic fascist moron.

[-] Bosht@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Yeah, people tend to give him way too much credit. Listen to the dude. He's a fucking narcissistic idiot. There's not enough going on between his ears to figure out where he's going tomorrow.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Not to mention, WE KNOW. We know he and his fascist enablers are destroying the country. Anyone who doesn't know that now is willfully ignorant and no amount of "distracting" would make a difference.

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Oh yeah? While you were distracted writing that response I tied your shoelaces together.

[-] GiveOver@feddit.uk 12 points 1 month ago

Shoelaces are where they hide the tracking chips I wouldn't be caught dead with them think about it have you ever bought shoelaces or do they just magically come with all your shoes for free yeah right nothing is free follow the money sheep

[-] not_IO 27 points 1 month ago

I've seen people say that about every crazy shit that happens lately

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 13 points 1 month ago

At this point the thought of everything being a machiavellian scheme is just less embarrassing than the thought of what's actually going on.

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Why be embarrassed? Those idiots aren’t you. The fact that we have a messed up system isn’t your fault. You’re doing your best out here, just like the rest of us!

[-] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Getting really sick of people saying everything is a distraction. They don’t give a shit, why would they? Would it have mattered if they didn’t do this? Everything they’re doing is insane and fascist. What does it matter if one insane fascist thing distracts from the other?

[-] NotAGamer@lemmy.org 1 points 1 month ago

Keep burying your head in the sand.

[-] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah okay, it’s always a distraction until it affects you. You guys said it was a distraction when Trump threatened to invade Canada/Greenland/Panama/etc but it doesn’t feel like a distraction when you live in one of those countries

Also I’m not saying any of this shit isn’t fucked up. I’m just taking it seriously as should you

[-] NotAGamer@lemmy.org 2 points 1 month ago

I'm Canadian. That wasn't a distraction. That was a act of war. A tryst between Trump and Musk doesn't effect people, which makes it a perfect distraction. You've been conned.

[-] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

That isn't what "tryst" means.

[-] NotAGamer@lemmy.org 1 points 1 month ago

You are correct. I used the wrong word. Doesn't mean I'm wrong about it being a fake fight.

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

I'm still waiting for the big event where they fight at Hell in a Cell.

If you think of Trump politics in terms of pro wrestling, more things than you expect start to make a lot more sense.

[-] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Why do you think Linda McMahon has a cabinet role? The real education she is managing is how to bring pain in the ring. This Sunday, at The Coliseum!!

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

That's wrong in this case, they absolutely do flood the zone as Bannon would say, but this isn't that, Trump is known to burn bridges (look at his entire first administration with many in jail or just had a falling out) because Trump is Trump. I'm surprised Musk lasted 5 months

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 36 points 1 month ago

He's such a sniveling coward.

[-] skip0110@lemmy.zip 31 points 1 month ago

Haha calling these people “men” is generous. They are subhuman scum

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 40 points 1 month ago

Dehumanizing ones enemies is what Nazis do. Be better than Nazis.

[-] skip0110@lemmy.zip 25 points 1 month ago

Fair, I’m angry and just expressing it, I could probably do it more productively

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Yeah get real. Set a squad car on fire like an adult.

[-] besmtt@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

They're men. They just lack empathy and are evil.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago

That's actually scarier and more difficult to accept than them being subhuman creatures.

[-] BrokenGlepnir@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

All the worst monsters in history are human. It's scary to think that it could be in any of us

[-] not_IO 8 points 1 month ago

making people insecure by putting criteria onto to being "a man" (or "a woman") is exactly where this bs starts

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Generous, or stolen valor? Neither one of them has received the requisite ass kicking to claim the rank. If you've never stopped being coddled, you're still a boy.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

"Oh shit, my shares"

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

"Apparently I am not the shogun behind the emperor."

[-] tehWrapper@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I agree with this tweet, but not the generalization of men being too emotional for politics.

[-] Gold_E_Lox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 1 month ago

im not sure if this is an understanding of the joke in the title and maintaining a satirical view of it, or just a complete misunderstanding..

[-] not_IO 15 points 1 month ago

this is why i put the tone indicator, but it got ignored anyway (ノдヽ)

[-] Auth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

whats a tone indicator?

[-] HakunaHafada@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

I think OP is referring to the '/s' in the description/alt text area.

[-] elevenbones@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Papa?
