I’m so over JD Vance

It's always "just a joke" when people get offended.

Oh, really? You’re sick of everyone being offended?

"I'm so over people complaining about racism," says wealthy white politician from the racist party. More news at 11.

So, the couch fucker invited him. Got it.

I'd like someone to explain what the joke is in calling one of our colonies a "trash island"

Please, some big brained masculine conservative explain it to me.

The party of fuck your feelings has a lot to say about people's feelings.

The jokes were the least-offensive thing about that fucking rally.

Well, looks like many people are not "so over it".
Also, should we really "get over" pushing back at racist shit?
Your argument is weak, you get an F. Go sit down and think about what you did.

This is why you can’t use The Independent for shit especially during election season.

“I haven’t seen the joke. Maybe it’s a stupid racist joke, maybe it’s not,” Vance said.

“I’m not going to comment on the specifics of the joke, but I think that we have to stop getting so offended at every little thing in the United States of America. I’m just I’m so over it.”

If you send this article to someone who wants to vote for Trump, they are going to correctly excoriate you. I know this because the last time I used The Independent this was was 2016 when Trump first and The Independent couldn’t back up its headlines then. In the last eight years it still can’t. If we take Vance at face value, which we know we can’t but we have to since that’s the quote The Independent chose to use to create their headline, it’s fake news.

In general, The Independent generates clickbait headlines that pull in a specific group of people that want to agree with the article and won’t verify who then send it to another group of people who will engage with the content to try and verify. This increases their engagement while spreading a mix of blatant lies and loose misinformation. Your life will be better if you filter out The Independent (something I haven’t yet bothered to do on Lemmy but did immediately on a new Reddit account; election season might finally change this) especially if you’re the audience for the headlines.

Monosodium glutamate held a rally?

I'm so over people who visit and don't pay for THEIR Stanley Steamer bill. Also he jizzed on my couch.

So .... he's OK with being openly racist?

That's one of the shitty quality I dislike about conservatives, especially far right and ultra conservatives. They know that the things they believe are wrong, immoral, unethical and inequitable so they have to say how they feel in secret or in coded language or to obfuscate everything they say and deny everything if they are called on it.

I dislike them because they are cowardly for being racist ... I also dislike them for being cowardly in their denial that they are racist.

By all means, defend the "joke". I suggest doing it especially in Pennsylvania.

I’m so over people saying horrific things and getting upset at being held accountable for it

God damn this fucking guy hates his mom. Should try cid.

You can do racist jokes, no subject is off limits to a good comedians. They still exsist. The problem is when you are not joking and supporting people that openly support nazi or klan believes.

Example: Bill Burr makes a black joke, I laugh.

Michael Richards or Roseanne Barr makes the same joke, I believe we see into there actual believes.

Vaguely racial put-down jokes can be funny, but they require a great deal of context and subtext to work. Being republican narrows the options to taking the role of the heel already, but during a rally where voters are meant to be fed information that makes them excited, I can’t see it.

Somebody should tell JD Vance that watermelon jokes are older than political correctness, by about a hundred years.

(they date back to reconstruction when watermelon was one of the first cash crops the former enslaved people were farming)

Tee hee, I'm just a silly little JD Vance, all this yelling is so boring, can't we just do our little racism amongst ourselves without the woke scolds getting upset for once?

If people don’t laugh at your offending joke it’s not a joke. It’s just offending.

JD Vance: "Bad things are a fact of life. Vote for the party that doesn't believe things can or should get better."

Yeah, why should people be upset when the president of the country is promoting the idea that they're worthless because of some unchangeable innate traits? Silly.

Couch fucker says what?

Besides the defeat of nazism, the next best thing about Trump losing is never having to see asshole JD again (except for Ohioans)

Insert James Acaster here: “What’s the matter, guys? Too challenging for you?“

"I'm not offended by it, why should anybody else be offended by it?"

Let me guess - he wouldn’t shut the fuck up about the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics.
