Here's a cheat card to understanding rightwing politics: different religion? BAD. Different skin color? VERY BAD. Different skin color and religion? TERRORISM AGAINST WHITE BOIS!!!!

[–] breecher@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

That is the lower level. Unsurprisingly right wing politics is hierarchical. The upper level is rich people using the rhetorics of that hate to convince poor people to vote for them, so they can grift to their hearts content.

upper level = grift lower level = bigotry

Of course the upper levellers can still adhere to the bigotry, but the grift always comes first.

The blond white man will never do anything wrong! He can't! He's a Germanic man just like me and my understanding of people is solely binary and extremely superficial!

I judge people only by what they tell me and not by what they actually do!

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's what drives me up the wall the most! They're so lost in words, they forgo reality entirely.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Me too, it's so infuriating. Like, you only have to SAY you're Christian for these people to think you're 'a very good person'. Once that label is connected to you you can do whatever the fuck you want and nothing changes in their eyes.

A lesson I learned a long time ago is "never trust a person with a 'Jesus fish' on their business card. "

I say that as a regular church attender. People who feel the need advertise their religion as a means to make money are almost never sincere about their "beliefs."

Sad reality.

I saved this to my phone to ensure I wont be granted access to the US anytime soon xD

[–] dQw4w9WgXcQ@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago

I feel like having a lemmy app on my phone is more than enough to block me from entering the US.

History books in the future are going to be weird.

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thanks, now you've permanently ruined Return of the Jedi.

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ruined or improved with analogous context?

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ruined. I used to be able to fantasize over Jabba The Hut, now I can't un-see Trump's face on him.

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

I think that's Trump's fault for cultivating an image of a slovenly, gluttonous blob of malice and stupidity. He was Jabba embodied long before now. The biggest differences between them is that Jabba was a smart and successful businessman, illegal as most of it may have been.

Racism is what americans crave

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

That's a dumb take.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 11 points 1 week ago

Vance looks more like Salacious B. Crumb

[–] BubblyRomeo@kbin.earth 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What the fuck is JD Vance wearing!

Standard issue slave-girl uniform.

I guess we have to be in the cult to make any sense of it

It's 5D chess, just because he says it is

Any objectively defined failure is a win because he says it is

I wouldn't wish that fate even on JD Vance. I'd laugh like a crazy person if it happened though.

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

Yesterday I saw a meme with Vance depicted like on the bottom left here. It was 2 vances and the text was something like people will not remember how he really looked like. I am now trying to find it again. Can someone please help?
