How do the likes of JD Vance and Drumpf rationalise no more DEI when they have wives who are DEI? It makes no sense. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This is typical fascism. Was Hitler a member of the Aryan race? Blue eyed, blond hair? Nope. Dude wasn't even German. Were any of his cadre? Nope.

Kim Jong Un reportedly doesn't need to use the bathroom because he is so perfect.

Trump is cracking down on illegal immigrants. Married an illegal immigrant. He's against chain migration. Melania chain migrated her family. Calls Biden sleepy Joe, then falls asleep during his trial. Says voting by mail is rampant with fraud. Votes by mail. None of this makes any sense!

To be clear, nobody actually thinks Kim Jong Un doesn't need to use the restroom. You can say anything you want about the DPRK and people will believe you, which ends up being a clickbait race for tabloid media (which is where stories like the no peeing thing come from).

So this was just bullshit? I thought this was the party line.

Most of what's reported about the DPRK is bullshit. It's closer to Cuba than it is to, say, the mythical religious state that worships the party and eats rats that is often reported as.
