Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

She must be so pissed, gonna make him sleep on the bed

[–] miraclerandy@lemmy.world 41 points 1 week ago

This took me a second but got a good chuckle. Thank you

[–] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 24 points 1 week ago

Good joke. Everybody laugh.

Seriously gave me a good chuckle after days.

This woman chose to marry this sad excuse for a human being. She deserves no pity.

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 58 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I wonder how she can sleep. Like if the order was given to kill any non Christian non white, does she really think Vance wouldn't?

[–] nondescripthandle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Money makes a comfy pillow.

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

Also, we know she has the bed to herself a majority of the time, what with him sleeping ~~with~~ on the couch so much...

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

She is a beard and is probably being paid very handsomely.

[–] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 58 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I would prefer to be led by adults

Than by children with an Invisible Friend in the Sky

Hey leave the children out of this, plenty of them are smart enough that they figure it out on their own.

I think some people are forgetting something.

She's a woman. She's not white. Her religion is basically meaningless to these creatures.

This is part of the show. She is less than Vance to MAGA. Because she is a woman, and not white, the ultimate proof of her subservience to Vance is if she ALSO converts officially to (whatever faith he calls himself 🤮).

This is to show MAGAts that they can claim non-white women as their own property and make them do what they want. From what I understand from my Hispanic friends is that this is already underway with ICE kidnappings. Women, in particular, are separated. I can't speak Spanish, so I can't actually verify the translation.

The suspicion is that the "white replacement fear" is being fought by sterilizing the kidnapped women, or forcing them to bear white children (the traditional Nazi way too! Rape.) . The men are incarcerated, deported, or otherwise removed.

I can verify that publicly posting ICE locations on Facebook or mentioning antifacism will get your account banned and related accounts flagged as "suspected to have links to a known terrorist organization."

It should be fairly obvious that while it might be non-white women today, tomorrow it will be white women.

Of course any white man like me that speaks of the horrors and continues to dissent will undoubtedly be targeted. There is ONE single weapon that is effective in the war on fascism. Knowledge.

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The weapons to fight fascism are weapons.

[–] edible_funk@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

This machine kills fascists.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And how do you expect people to fight back if they don't know how to.

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

With guns. I literally just said it wtf.

Maybe if James converted to Hindu he'd be less of a dickhead.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

He'd have to face karma, though.

Hang on, another Charlie kirk event??

[–] Zedstrian@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 week ago

A rotting corpse would be fitting for a MAGA event.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 7 points 1 week ago

Of course. Got to beat that horse to death.

Well if she does she'd probably be better at any religion than her husband who converted to catholicism then insisted on picking fights with a dying pope, killing him.

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 21 points 1 week ago

Don't worry bro, there's plenty of Hindu fascists too

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

This guy sure knows how to keep a family happy

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Jesus christ, how much therapy are these kids gonna need? They've already had to watch their father apologize to fucking white supremacists for his wife not being white during the campaign, if they haven't already I'm sure they're destined to hear incessantly about him fucking couches, this shit now, and I'm sure somewhere around 500k other things I've already forgotten about by now

Someone's sleeping on the couch tonight! Oh wait, that's not punishment to him

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Couch abuse is not joke. Every day thousands of couches are neglected, unloved, abused, and misunderstood.

You can make a difference though! Consider joining the People Against Vance Fucking Everyone's Couch Society (PAVFECS).

For the cost of a cup of coffee once a day you can ensure that couches have the help and protection they need to avoid Vance fucking them. We here at PAVFECS know that every couch, even ones fucked by Vance, deserve a better life. Join today!

Fucken wild, I say some shit like that my nuts would be in a vice in 0.4 seconds flat. These dudes all need nose punches and partners who are willing to really grip those nuts.

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

I saw a meme once that put it better than I ever could:

Some people just need a high five. In the face. With a chair.

[–] etherphon@midwest.social 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What a performative asshole, he's about as Christian as Charlie Manson.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

you mean MK ULTRA subject charile manson

[–] Overconfidentiality@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think this really shows how shallow their marriage really is, that's the sort of topic you discuss Privately with your spouse, not publicly shame them. Yikes

She supports him. She is with him. I get tired of the tropes. She is nothing more than one of them. A traitor.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

God, what an asshole.

[–] tornavish@lemmy.cafe 8 points 1 week ago
[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How'd this freak score a looker like Usha anyway?

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 11 points 1 week ago

Because she's a terrible person.

[–] fittedsyllabi@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Ah, so he referred to it like it’s some kind of gang, right? White power?

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

He is so getting a divorce and getting with Kirk’s widow. Maybe this turd was behind Charlie getting an extra hole in is neck.

[–] aidan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This I kinda don't get, in that this is probably the most vanilla thing you'd expect to hear from basically anyone of any religion about their spouse not following it.
