it’s like hbo’s chernobyl if that was about keeping a giant dickhead alive

“Biden has sus­pend­ed all at­tack ads against Trump while he’s in treat­ment. This is what’s called be­ing a de­cent hu­man be­ing. If their po­si­tions were re­versed, Trump would spend all his wak­ing hours crow­ing on Twit­ter and mak­ing fun of him.”
—Greg David

 

Fuck the fic­ti­tious high road. Trump’s team is still run­ning at­tack ads even tho Biden pulled his.

Hell, some of y’all would send a “Get Well Soon” card to the guard with snif­fles that forced you and your fam­i­ly into the gas chamber.

It’s been four years of re­pub­li­cans show­ing you every minute of every day what they are.

And I get that “Fuck your feel­ings” is low-hang­ing fruit but it de­serves slight­ly deep­er exploration …

I had the sniper pinned down. At this point he’d tak­en out a dozen peo­ple. I had the kill shot ready. But then I thought, ‘what about *his* feel­ings.’ I mean, this guy has a family.

When the right al­most mono­lith­i­cal­ly (and for all in­tents and pur­pos­es, *ab­solute­ly* mono­lith­i­cal­ly) makes car­ing a weak­ness, makes em­pa­thy a weak­ness, makes a cen­tral pil­lar of their brand trolling those with em­pa­thy but then ex­pects end­less amounts of em­pa­thy when the dan­ger they them­selves pro­voke gets too close to them and things they care about? 

Well that’s clas­sic text­book abu­sive bul­ly behavior.

And you can sug­gest that em­pa­thy is an im­mutable and that it should ex­ist uni­ver­sal­ly but do­ing that only re­al­ly makes it a use­ful tool for weaponiza­tion by those with an elas­tic moral com­pass (read: the Amer­i­can right wing) and it is­n’t in­cum­bent on the em­pa­thet­ic or tol­er­ant to of­fer that weapon up when you know for a fact that it’s just go­ing to get used against you, prob­a­bly immediately.

Bad faith ac­tors know what you will al­low and that which you will al­low then be­comes the play­ing field. To not cov­er that field out of some one-sided nod at a sports­man­ship that you’re the only side abid­ing by is not only false but stupid.

In sum: They know you’ll be the big­ger per­son and they will use it against you as they stoop ever low­er. And if by some chance you do beat them they will use that to pre­tend they were al­ways on your side after.

“I’ve got­ten a lot of joy to­day from ac­cus­ing Trump sup­port­ers of virtue sig­nal­ing when they post their mes­sages of support.”
—Rob Mont­gomery

Do you hon­est­ly be­lieve these shit­heads ac­tu­al­ly have the courage of their sup­posed convictions?

Mean­ing they cry “muh rights” about pro­tect­ing them­selves and oth­ers from a virus but only so far as they be­lieve that virus is harmful.

They think it’s a hoax and that al­lows them to pose like they are choos­ing Lib­er­ty over Death.

But they don’t ac­tu­al­ly be­lieve in the Death which makes them cowards.

 

NOW MORE THAN EVER
Trump’s in­ner cir­cle needs to vis­it his peo­ple in Plac­erville and give them the COVID Hoax Free­dom Hugs they all deserve.

 

Here’s how wrecked Trump’s cred­i­bil­i­ty is at this point: I’ve got a cell­phone full of texts from peo­ple who aren’t sure whether to be­lieve Trump ac­tu­al­ly has covid. “He lies so much,” one friend just texted. “Is he just do­ing this to get out of the de­bates?” oth­ers are texting.

Don’t miss how in­sane the sit­u­a­tion is.

Miss me with that “buh all politi­cians lie” shit cuz thats like com­par­ing a light driz­zle to a hurricane.

This is the president.

This is the cost of ly­ing *con­stant­ly*

I have em­pa­thy for the peo­ple whose lives were ru­ined by this mon­ster. That’s proof that I have em­pa­thy. I don’t need to have it for the mon­ster as well.

“They did­n’t even con­tact the Biden cam­paign about pos­si­ble ex­po­sure. They’re still de­spi­ca­ble peo­ple do­ing de­spi­ca­ble things. They de­serve no em­pa­thy or sympathy.”
—Julie Lynn

“Was­n’t it just a few nights ago turnip was mock­ing VP Joe Biden for wear­ing a huge mask?”
—Tom Bishel

A L S O

We must find the man that punched Rick Moranis.

And we must make him suffer.
