Perfect! This is perfection, nobody will ever make a better use of this meme format!

Is there any one quality that more of the people surrounding Trump share than being serial sex abusers?

I can't think of one.

Watch the tate brothers become members of Trump's cabinet

I thought that's why he got them out/they came over here

Did something change with the babylon bee? Sudden surge of actually decent content all of a sudden

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Right wingers are starting to act non/anti-christian more prominently from power, it seems. So Babylon bee has material from the right to make fun of. Or maybe not, it kind of always existed, now thinking.

Idk, I always felt that there was a conservative slant to the bee. It's never there 100% of the time, but it's kinda like if the Onion was written by a bunch of bootlickers.

I'm not sure if it's widely known, but Tate started a political party in the UK called "BRUV" ("Britain Restoring Underlying Values"). The manifesto is all AI generated garbage. I'm unsure how that'll turn out as a refugee fleeing European justice.

I mean look at all the fake-ass christians infecting the world, is it so hard to believe that there are plenty of fake-ass muslims too? I was friends with a Palestinian/Jordanian guy and he told me it was commonplace in Jordan to have a group of men drinking tea at a cafe, except the tea pot was full of liquor. I don't know if it was meant to hide it from other people, hide it from god, or both.

I mean. The only place to get alcohol past midnight in the Canadian town I grew up in was an all night tea house. But we were just trying to hide it from the cops.

He converted I believe before the arrest if I recall properly. But yeah, it's quite ironic.

Maybe Christianity wasn't misogynistic enough?

Perhaps Trump needs someone new to replace Epstein.
