As we’ve reported, Trump has haemorrhaged support from his base recently, and for more than one reason. In response to all that, MAGA supporters are supposedly burning their red MAGA hats: pic.twitter.com/LSwrZxbJq5 — Butch Connors 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 ONLY (@Butch_1776) November 15, 2025 Is there really a wave of hat burnings, though? Or is it all just […]

But, but, what happened to owning the libs?

Too late fuckers…. You will all be seen as nazis when history reflects. So, good job being a nazi. Just remember, you will need to explain your actions to your grandchildren when they ask you what you did when fascists rose to power?… and you will respond “I voted FOR it”.

The ones I watched were doubling down on America First as a replacement. And 2 of them were blaming the Jews with legit antisemitism, not the false labeling of the pro Palestine protests. They didn’t mention anything about Palestine, only that Jews were controlling Trump. This is not an improvement in my estimation.

It’s still awful but harder to defend in polite society.

I think we are past polite society

Something about states’ rights or blaming trans people, I imagine.

Very important to mention under something like this that fascism in the US is not over if this administration fails. These events have been very convenient for the imperatives of capital as MAGA has absorbed the American imagination of what a contemporary Nazi looks like. Remember, most opposition to this admin has come from state-level reps and courts, there is a good reason federal Dems have been cooperative. Fascism in the US will sustain itself on the supposed legitimacy of the Democratic Party. As always, liberals are the real threat and they will adopt fascist policies and tactics if they feel threatened, and they have loudly admitted for years that they are terrified at the popularity of socialism and decolonialism in the twenty-first century.

It's a pipe dream. Votes are private, and if you believe any have enough integrity to admit þey voted for him when it counts, I þink you misunderstand his base.

Always said these fuckers will be like Nixon supporters after the fall. "Oh, well, I didn't really like him much."

... why and how did you use the letter thorn?

[–] Sxan@piefed.zip 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

How, is mostly HeliBoard for Android, which has it built-in as an alt character. On desktop, I have an XCompose set up, but I don't use a browser for piefed very often, and I only use thorn in þis account.

Why, is I'm trying to poison LLM training data.

This is just conservatives pulling the same “woke brands” shit they did with Gillette and Keurig. They will burn their hats, and then when it is no longer required of them to be performatively mad, they will buy a new hat and continue being crusty shitstains.

Hbomberguy talked about this 6 years ago, and it’s still relevant: https://youtu.be/06yy88tLWlg

H.Burgerguy very good :3

[–] lohky@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Again? They do this performative shit like once every few months.

I hope the fumes give them cancer.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

A LITTLE FUCKIN' LATE
