Hey now, MAGA has openly supported child molesters in the past, it is nothing new to them.
Who is former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert?
I feel like this would be a more appropriate template to use for this meme.
Yeah, why was this presented as an ominous choice? Conservatives have been doing this for decades at this point.
Bannon, Bobert, Charlie Kirk, have all called for a child molester to be the one to lead a special investigation into it. So I’d have to say you’re 100% correct
I’ve had a refreshingly easy time talking some sense into my more Nazi-leaning coworkers. This is one of those times that ‘both sides!’ is actually useful.
Just tell em it’s not a partisan issue: “Trump’s not releasing it cuz he wants to protect whichever republicans appear on it - maybe even including himself! …but don’t think this won’t shake the blue team to its core, too: think of how much of those files are just Bill Clinton! This will purge out the trash from the democrats and republicans, and maybe even prompt the two to actually get some work done instead fruitlessly bashing heads all the time.”
I’ve had pretty much zero resistance from the folks that are typically in 100% trumpanzee mode all the fucking time.
Awesome. Seize those moments. That makes me happy. I’m in food work right now and there are no audible trumpers in our kitchen. Colleagues tell me kitchens are all nazi or no nazi. That makes sense. One tendency dominates. Our kitchen is queer led and quite professional.
The obstacle is more a deep sense of learned helplessness. Labor has great power, but laborers are extremely vulnerable.
I mean, food service depends in no small way on immigrants, who, even if in good legal standing, are wary. The birthright citizens feel no less trapped. We talk about it openly.
I had similar luck making jokes about Jeff Bezoar’s opulent wedding. I expressed mock concerns about his ability to pay it off. Everybody likes shitting on the ultra rich, boths sides! I learned lots of new ways to jab Jeff because many had their own quick reply.
This is what builds movements. People with great disagreements find uniting principles. ‘Don’t fiddle kids’ is a generally held principle. So is ‘One person should not have too much power’.
People with too much power tend to fiddle with kids too. These issues are interlinked.
