The leopards are morbidly obese already.
The leopards are coming so fast they’re red shifting.
“He’s hurting the wrong people!!1!”
For anyone unfamiliar with the source of this quote:
A few miles away, another prison employee, Crystal Minton, accompanied her fiancé to a friend's house to help clear the remnants of a metal roof mangled by the hurricane. Ms. Minton, a 38-year-old secretary, said she had obtained permission from the warden to put off her Mississippi duty until early February because she is a single mother caring for disabled parents. Her fiancé plans to take vacation days to look after Ms. Minton's 7-year-old twins once she has to go to work.The shutdown on top of the hurricane has caused Ms. Minton to rethink a lot of things."I voted for him, and he's the one who's doing this," she said of Mr. Trump. "I thought he was going to do good things. He's not hurting the people he needs to be hurting."
They want others to suffer, but they don't understand that this is a class war and they're on the losing (suffering) side.
(I know it's technically a misquote, who cares, OP got the idea across)
Thank you for doing the legwork I was too lazy to do. People like you make Lemmy great!
too bad the voters continued to cheer for the leopards...
awwww. you're getting exactly what you signed-up for.
lay in the shit you helped spread... or hang the traitors.
your choice. only one of them is the correct one, but you won't pick that one, will you. because some black single mother and their lgbtq neighbor kid are getting hit, too--that makes it all 'ok' and worth it, right?
As the old saying goes, a conservative would gladly eat a pile of shit if they knew a liberal had to smell their breath.
It's the only power they have: upsetting other people. So they spend their lives clinging to that power and doing anything and everything to hurt others to be able to get a perverse joy of "controlling" someone else's emotions. Like everything with conservatives, everything, everything, everything is through the lens of power. They speak no other language.
This is an old saying?
I've heard it for 15 years , at least. In internet-time, that's deadly old.
I've never heard it. We must travel in different internet circles.
At least a decade old at this point
it at least dates back to the dark days of newt, if not nixon and goldwater.
"They're not hurting the right people!"
Oh, cutting government programs that are in place to help the less fortunate so you can give the rich another tax cut is hurting the less fortunate?
He's not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.
“An awkward position”??? They are elected officials, and should do what their constituents want, not what will keep them in good graces with the Orange god king and his bumbling idiot vizier.
The Venn diagram circle of constituents who are complaining now is about 99% inside the one of constituents who will vote MAGA no matter what.
“You said you were going to bite our heads off, we didn’t think you were going to bite our heads off!”
