More people need to start acting petulant and childish with Trump. It's the only language he understands.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 47 points 2 weeks ago (9 children)

Trump is a narcissist. There is no language he "understands" other than ass-kissing and getting his way.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 31 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah but openly mocking him gets under his skin, and while he's rage posting about getting his feefees hurt that's less time for him to be doing anything else. It's like those guys who waste the time of scam callers.

Narcissists very much understand mocking. They're deeply insecure and it's basically the worst thing you can do to them.

"Trump: Newsome has gone radical left"

Hahahahahahahahaha okay buddy

Anything left of Hitler is "radical left."

[–] III@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Give conservatives some time - I am sure Hitler will be a woke leftist to them if you waited long enough.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

True, the Overton window is moving past him as we speak!

As much as I don’t like Newsom, the Shitposting is fun

The cankles are low hanging fruit, but, we need to normalize more slap back.

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Man, with cankles that size they’ll be slapping against one another with each pedo-step he takes.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 1 points 1 week ago

Cankles like that aren’t flabby. They’re tight and spongy with serous fluid, like what you find in a blister. In extreme cases that fluid does form blisters and can weep puddles onto the floor.

This is not a healthy man.

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago

He forgot the "thank you for your attention in this matter"

[–] turdcollector69@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

At this point I get way more "good cop/bad cop" than I perceived any actual resistance

[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yea, its just "banter". Newsome could say he will run for president and have ICE (and those that enabled ICE) arrested as an executive order day one. He could say as president he would do a capital levy of 50% on every billionaire as an executive order.

Instead we get stupid insults.

[–] turdcollector69@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'll never vote for Newsome. That rat fuck is trying to dress up the same old neolib bullshit in demsoc language and I refuse to fall for it.

Everyone who talks positively about him sounds exactly like trump supporters circa 2015. They don't realize left wing populist is still a populist. The only difference is that he'll whisper sweet nothings into your ear while he fucks you instead of blasting truth social rants while he fucks you.

"Blue no matter who" only helps the populist, I just won't vote if they push another bad candidate. I voted for Hillary and Kamala and now I'm fucking done with holding my nose.

I'm so sick of being told I'm the one who has to compromise on values just to fucking lose anyway.

[–] sfgifz@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

I don't understand how Democrat leaning Americans don't get it. This is the ONLY way you're going to be able to beat Republicans now, if you're going to with tax the billionaires and whatever the fuck you will lose again and again. The fight is no longer an honourable one, you'll either get dirty for whatever principles you can salvage or you'll die.

[–] thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 weeks ago

Perfect. Trump gonna need some ketchup for these harsh browns (he'll only throw it at the walls, I know)

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

California should secede.

It would immediately bankrupt the US. All those mags loving red states are barely able to survive without money flowing in from blue states, and California is not only its largest economy, it's one of the largest economies in the world. California moves away and good luck for those red states getting money to feed their rich.

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I saw something where Kentucky takes a lot of federal money, yet they vote red all the time

[–] GuyLivingHere@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

"I love the poorly educated"

[–] Hufschmid@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

California can't secede without some kind of violent escalation, or a constitutional amendment to allow secession which won't happen. The high GDP is dependent on trade with the rest of the US, it's not isolated and sustainable on its own. California imports more of it's power than any other state, over 20% now (though this is going down).

California is the key to US western ports and access to the Pacific. The federal government and US military will absolutely never allow that to go away, which means secession is not possible without all out war. California loses a war with the rest of the US no question. California isn't exactly unified, and has more registered conservatives than the entire population of Kentucky. They have a strong liberal majority just about everywhere, but no shortage of conservative who aren't going to quietly allow a secession.

They doesn't exactly have a bright future when it comes to climate change and access to clean water, and they'll need support from the rest of the US as droughts, wildfires and unsustainable depletion of groundwater continues. You want to be on the team that has control of the great lakes region as climate change worsens.

I don't think you meant it that seriously, but it's fun to think through these things for me.

Let's all be friends and not spread civil war rhetoric (:

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

Thanks for a more in-depth view!

I get the point but my argument is mostly about how all these red states can barely make enough money to feed their own people and depend on money coming in from blue states, but always bitch and moan about how California should be more like them.

They fully support the US government blocking money to California but they're happy to take it's money. The hypocrisy is just eye rolling.

They could join Canada. Year round fruit. Yay.

[–] GuyLivingHere@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

I am here for this. So many Canadians in the entertainment industry relocate to Cali. Hell, it was even what drew the NHL into southern expansion. If Gretzky had never been traded to Los Angeles, I am betting that the NHL would be confined to Canada and the northern US (places that actually get snow, goddammit!) to this day.

Edit: I know that mountainous regions in even tropical countries get snow, but the culture of hockey/winter sports in general doesn't exist in warm-weather locales for a pretty obvious reason - people don't experience cold winter weather there.

lol pedo Antoinette is going to be really mad if someone reads this to him

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

You mean prints it out and gives it to him.

If his cankles are only 4th in size, who have the 3 fatter cankles? 🤔

[–] dellish@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Gina Rinehart is definitely top three.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He's right. Still would be a terrible choice for president. Stop falling for literally the same schtick we name fun of Republicans for.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What, you want stats and policy papers? You know they have them, right - as opposed to the GQP. Check out their 2020 party platform for some serious political vision.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm not sure why saying newsom, who's an autocratic dirtbag himself is bad means Republicans aren't also very fucking bad. As if somehow people have already decided that that piece of shit has already been crowned the Dem nominee before he's even declared his run, and that the only choices are between him and a Republican...

This binary thinking is another thing we make fun of Republicans for.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

If no lefty-backed politician is making waves like this - if it continues to be silence and sneering, then yeah. Probably.

So where are they? We got three years, but that’s like - two hours in political time. I hope someone’s making plans but everytime I ask, I get one of these answers:

  • *crickets*
  • oh, so now we have to have a plan?!
  • we have a plan, but we’re not going to tell you about it.

Ok then.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago
