Jokes aside, she has the money to start over fresh in whatever country she pleases and live a comfortable stress free life. Us, on the other hand, do not have that luxury. So it's going to be super fun when the DOJ can just decide because you posted "Free Palestine" on facebook that your citizenship gets revoked and you're shipped off to some concentration camp in latin america.

so when i was wearing my "Free Palestine" shirt at trader joe's and one guy told me I was "brave" for wearing it, i was super confused by that statement.. but with shit like this it makes a little more sense

In north korea, citizens get punished by having their citizenship revoked if they speak badly of the regime. yeonmi-park

Rosie O'Donnel said one shitty thing conservatives didn't like 25 years ago.

Rosie hasn't been relevant since 1998, she wasn't relevant in 2001 when she said the shit thing that conservatives are still mad about.

Trump is probably in the stage of dementia where he probably getting mad each night because he is learning all over again that the O'Reilly Factor isn't on the air anymore.

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 18 points 10 hours ago

Chuds are still mad at Jane Fonda even though it's been over 50 years

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 18 points 11 hours ago

My dead grandfather is still fuming over this from his grave.

I remember her appearing in Bush era memes about how liberal women are ugly and conservative women like Ann Coulter are beautiful.

[–] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 12 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (3 children)

I remember those.

(CW: old chud meme; thinly veiled misogyny; liberals falsely labeled as leftists)

I like how the conservatives' pictures are official portraits and glamour shots, while the liberals' pictures are candid, Photoshopped or otherwise out of context.

[–] enkifish@hexbear.net 8 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Seems mostly old vs young with a dash of racism. Also, is that Rosie O'Donnel's face photoshopped on Saddam Hussein?

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 4 points 7 hours ago

Yeah there's a lot of ageism. Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi, for example, would both be missing from this chart if they were still in their 20s or 30s.

Saddam Hussein?

No, its Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged number three in al-Qaida.

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 5 points 7 hours ago

These are always so stupid because you can just point to Hollywood, which chuds are constantly seething over as being too liberal. Taylor Swift was their darling until she vaguely hinted at not liking Trump. Hell, a lot of Fox News staff are there because they couldn't make it in any other kind of showbiz (like Ben Shapiro).

You can fill up both sides of that chart pretty easily because surprise surprise, attractive people exist all over the political spectrum and we shouldn't use that as a litmus for intelligence.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 4 points 8 hours ago

That Clinton one should be an emoji though it's great hillary-apartment

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 27 points 12 hours ago

Ann Coulter are beautiful.

I'm not going to wade in and dictate beauty standards which are subjective. I will say however though the chuds have a "type" they elevate, Pam Bondi, Karoline Leavitt, Ann Coulter, Tomi Lahren, you get the picture.

[–] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 19 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

I was gonna say, the only time I ever come across anything about Rosie O'Donnell anymore is via boomer memes. They're literally the one and only demographic who still cares about her.

[–] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 33 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Trump is going to resign tomorrow. Everything he's done over the past 15 years has been done with one goal in mind: evening a score with Rosie O'donnel.

[–] gueybana@hexbear.net 19 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

There is no doubt about it, Rosie is his arch nemesis.

I remember being 13 watching him go on literal rants about Rosie O’Donnell just because she was fat. Insane shit

[–] ryepunk@hexbear.net 9 points 8 hours ago

Imagine being a woman, a fat woman, and having the indecency to go into a career where others will have to see you talking and moving and such. The nerve of some women.

Now if you'll excuse me I gotta go play tennis.

thicc-trump

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 20 points 11 hours ago

Pretty sure she already moved to Ireland after he won the election, so Donny T is once again slow on the draw

[–] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 3 points 7 hours ago

With enough of your prayers I'll be able to normalize relations with Cuba and use the absolute shit out of Guantanamo.

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 32 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I was really hoping Trump just said Ireland because of her last name and his inherent racism, but sadly it's because she is in the process of obtaining Irish citizenship.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 14 points 12 hours ago

Trump probably thinks people from Ireland are still Shamus O'Paddy immigrants from the 1860s lol

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 34 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I forgot she even existed until it was brought up this morning. Super fucking dangerous, Mr. President take her away.

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 4 points 11 hours ago

She's still alive? Wow. I didn't know that, you're telling me now for the first time. She's still leading an amazing life.

Ooo he called us a wonderful country, we still hate the fashy orange fuck

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 19 points 12 hours ago

Threat to humanity hahaha

[–] Lavender@hexbear.net 20 points 12 hours ago

Lmao keep the threat to humanity in wonderful Ireland.

[–] Jenniferrr@hexbear.net 28 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

If he successfully does this idk what to do, seems like a bad precedent

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 25 points 12 hours ago

bad president kelly

[–] Euergetes@hexbear.net 26 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

the sending her to ireland bit is probably untrue but i wonder how european countries would take white american deportees/emigrees like that. on the one hand they're migrants, but on the other they're white. 2 biggest european contradictions in a single problem

[–] TrashGoblin@hexbear.net 9 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

She already moved to Ireland and is in the process of obtaining citizenship; her father was an Irish citizen. Not a situation that generalizes.

[–] Euergetes@hexbear.net 4 points 8 hours ago

feel like Trump would form that idea based entirely on her name, but idk he's apparently a long-time hater so he might know personal details

[–] OhNoMoreLemmy@lemmy.ml 23 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

You can already see how they were handled with Ukrainian refuges.

In the UK, the standard channels were completely bypassed. No need to go through the normal refuge system, and the government would directly pay families to host refuges.

Very different to the standard approach where you're indefinitely detained the cheapest accommodation possible and banned from working.

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 11 hours ago

I like how Palestinians were using the same channels Ukkkrainians were and then the government blocked it

[–] take_five_moments@hexbear.net 7 points 9 hours ago

hahjahahahahah do it

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 24 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

lmao no fuckin' way michael-laugh

dumbest timeline

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 19 points 13 hours ago

Hey don't knock our big ol' queen president who holds a grudge for decades.

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 13 points 11 hours ago

Lol he really isn’t over his grudge towards her

[–] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

Donald Trump is a dictator dressed up as a president, that is clear. However, Rosie O'Donnell supported Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders, so she is neo-liberal, shit-lib herself. Must be nice to have all that money you can hide in another country, and return when it is safe. She is part of the bigger problem. Eat the rich!

[–] XxFemboy_Stalin_420_69xX@hexbear.net 24 points 13 hours ago (5 children)

he won the popular vote. he's not a dictator, he's exactly what the american people want

[–] Euergetes@hexbear.net 36 points 12 hours ago

the US is not a democratic country, this is a silly statement.

[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 31 points 12 hours ago

“Did not vote” won the presidency, as it has nearly every election since like 1908.

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 28 points 13 hours ago

A country held captive under duress cannot be said to be a democracy. When you control the choices you control the outcome.

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 3 points 9 hours ago

Can we call him a dictator when future elections are brazenly stolen or cancelled?

[–] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Not arguing right vs left...it is a uni-party system. We need a proper 'working class' party that fights for workers, a third party.

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 7 points 11 hours ago

...a vanguard party? weird-bolshevik

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 27 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Donald Trump is a dictator dressed up as a president, that is clear.

Eh, I'd argue all us president have done dictator shit in one way or another, usually it's just aimed at the global south. Trump is unique in that he's using the gun of empire and training it on citizens instead which is new. Agree though that she is a shitlib, she sucks.

[–] john_brown@hexbear.net 9 points 11 hours ago

everybody forgets that barack obama drone murdered US citizens and not a single consequence was had

[–] Nay@feddit.nl 13 points 12 hours ago

You're not wrong, but I don't think anyone cares who it's happening to. The issue is that it's happening to -someone- and setting up precedence.
