"Idk man that guy is kinda weird"

Publication: Liberals are finally stooping to the conservative playbook!

Meanwhile former president has mocked a disabled journalist and been openly racist and misogynistic.

Buttigieg said about Vance "He is... odd" and it was enough. It was perfect it felt like a scorch

Orange Julius, the extremely bizarre racist rapist and his culty base of weird pedophiles who support Dershowitz, Musk, Trump, Matt Gaetz, etc.

Finally? What about "fascist"?

They don't seem to squirm in the same way when people call them that.

Yeah, fascist is so ridiculous and over the top you can just dismiss it.

Weird, you can actually make memes about weird. I've seen a lot of stuff involving the drag last supper. There's more to be done with weird.

You can't really just dismiss it — it's accurate. But it doesn't seem to resonate in the same way.

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com 1 points 5 months ago

Yeah, we breathe air and drink water, just like fascists do!

It was never anything more than fear mongering to keep the voters in line.

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com 1 points 5 months ago

Also, you can meme weird. Harder to do fascist

Republicans have been name calling and employing underhanded tactics against their opposition for decades. It is about damn time that they get a taste of their own medicine. They don't know how to react because this is the first time it actually happened (as opposed to their delusions that they were always on the defensive).
