He saw it on TV instead of through his porn accountability app. It was terrifying for him to not share his viewing with his son.

You mean that fake Jan 6 Antifa woke FBI mob that were unarmed and just peaceful tourists?

Unlike that nothing burger, where five people died...

The U.S. is such a strange place, where a sizable part of the population is more terrified of tits than guns.

Open carrying tits is way less common.

Isn't that the most American statement ever. Belligerent assholes walking around with automatic rifles and tacticool pseudo military gear from Ebay? What a patriotic display! A bunch of people without clothes just biking around? The most threatening thing I've seen yet!

Lmao, Christians are too funny to me. Violence and murder, a-ok; little bit of nudity, "they're very threatening!"

Next time someone says lefties are too soft, remember that Mike Johnson feels deeply threatened by naked people on bikes in a city on the other side of the country from him.

[–] selkiesidhe@sh.itjust.works 95 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Portland does this sort of thing every year. Clutch your pearls harder, you mushroom-fluffing fascist.

The only thing it threatened was your fragile sense of heterosexuality upon seeing all those chilly willies.

[–] MightBeAlpharius@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

all those chilly willies

Yeah, I heard the weather was pretty bad this year. Ngl, though, I feel feel like my fragile sense of masculinity would be much more threatened by a bunch of massive flopping songs on a hot day, than it would be by a bunch of tiny chilly willies on a cold day.

...Hold up. Poor/middle class guys with small schlongs drive huge trucks and loud cars. Does this mean that rich guys with tiny tallywhackers go into politics?

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 17 points 1 month ago

Flopping songs. I can hear their sound now.

So, he considers unarmed, naked people "threatening"? What a weak, cowardly snowflake.

“Most recently,” Johnson went on, “the most threatening thing I’ve seen yet was the naked bicyclers in Portland who were protesting ICE down there. I mean, it’s getting really ugly.”

Though the people behind him appeared to stifle a smile, it does not seem that he was joking, because he went on to say that protesters have attacked officers and people have been arrested.

The phrase "the most threatening thing I’ve seen yet was the naked bicyclers in Portland who were protesting ICE down there," cannot logically be anything except a defense of Portland. There is no other logical interpretation. It logically means that Portland has nothing more threatening than peaceful naked bicyclers. They can't even carry a concealed weapon.

But since Johnson is apparently disconnected from reality and basic logic, he can say something that defends Portland and pretend like it is a criticism of Portland. Is it even possible that he's so delusional that he believes what he's saying? No, I think it's very unlikely.

Even though the article says "it does not seem that he was joking," I still have trouble believing it. I have to convince myself that Mike Johnson wouldn't publicly defend Portland as being safe in order to believe that he wasn't joking.

But then, what am I left with? No human being over, say, 15, with reasonable intelligence, could think about that statement that Johnson said and believe he was telling the truth.

So, the explanation is that Mike Johnson is so used to getting away with lying that he'll just say anything. And meanwhile, his audience are so used to not thinking that they don't even call him on it.

I forgot nudity is like the ultimate taboo in the USA. Janet Jackson was sent to Guantanamo for her nip-nip popping out a little, while meanwhile over the pond there are nude Germans on every beach and children are raised by Eurotrash on late night TV.

He's really thinking "All those cocks and not enough time to suck them all."

Seems like he is totally cool with the stuff Donald Trump did with underage girls, but he can’t handle seeing adults naked?

Weird.

Doesn't he have a secret Grindr account? Somehow, I think he's seen worse.

Perhaps what Speaker Johnson is saying is true (who am I kidding?). The political violence from "the Left" has been such a nothingburger that the most henious thing that he had seen thus far is a cycling group with a few naked people. Write that down as public testimony for the state attorneys' cases.

To be serious for a moment, he doesn't believe that for a second.

He's just bullshiting to further the false narrative that his fascist regime is pushing as they continue deploying the military against the american public and other opponents of fascism.

Trust the sexuality repressed American to see a naked person and get scared.

They're not all like that of course but their culture is kind weird, like they don't even seem to teach proper sex education in all their schools? They teach abstinence and such even sometimes? Wild.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This Mike Johnson is the slimiest piece of glue holding a lot of this bad shit together. Fuck Mike Johnson and his glorious worship (or fear) of his dear leader. He's the wormtongue for our times.
