The DNC killed #metoo to prop up the guy who victimized Anita Hill and Tara Reade

[-] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 19 points 3 months ago

I really hope Biden eats shit and dies soon. That'd make my week.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago

He has all of the opportunities for comfort but is turning it down to be the president nobody wanted. He is eating shit every day and his best case scenario is dying in office.

Imagine your legacy coming down as one of the most justifiably hated person who could go down in history as destroying the status quo you have fought for. He is destroying his legacy and it's going down in history.

Doing this to defend someone with pretty serious rape allegations, too.

[-] Posadas@hexbear.net 62 points 3 months ago
[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 44 points 3 months ago

FFS people get that serious about defending Biden? He's a fucking elected official. He's supposed to be there by the will of the people.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 51 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

If they cared about consent in any capacity, we wouldn't have had nothing but sex criminal politicians since the founding of the US. Jefferson, Clinton, Trump, Biden, it's literally a systemic problem.

Hamilton was made by a person of color, and the original cast said 'shame on you' to trump officials during one of the original shows. A hip hop musical made in the name of giving good pr to a fucking slaver who helped found a slaving colony.

How fucked is that?

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 41 points 3 months ago

Wow cool a brown person singing a song to make a slaver look sympathetic. wow-cool-robot

It's beyond parody and jokerfying.

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 31 points 3 months ago

I'm guessing that marginalised people making media calling white men OK is a pretty successful grift industry.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 33 points 3 months ago

Hence in the other thread, I said I wish it was safer to date as a leftist. I'm Black and sometimes the best I can get for a long time is "enjoyed Hamilton"

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 22 points 3 months ago

Dammit, if people used Hamilton on me because of my race, I'd adventure-time

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 26 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I have a very crazy story about a liberal coworker who was obsessed with Hamilton. I have never seen the show and at this point I refuse to. I'd rather read X-Men comics about queer polycules on Mars.

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 21 points 3 months ago

I had a lib younger friend who was super into it. This was at the very beginning and I had no preconceived ideas about the show. We did a road trip once, and she played it on the car stereo. I heard a few of the songs and I was totally turned off by the style and by what it was saying.

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 21 points 3 months ago

LMM's musical style is so corny it hurts. It's always really obvious when his work comes up in the newer Disney movies.

[-] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 3 months ago

Literally the only place I can say I tolerate his music is Encanto; and even then I still want him kicked down a stick pit

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

I had a white woman play Beyoncé's new album on a road trip a few months ago. You have my sympathy.

[-] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 28 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Genuinely why I want Lin Manuel dropped down a stick pit. There is no coming back from Sunken-Placery like fucking Hamilton.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 21 points 3 months ago

Lin Manuel Miranda, for your crimes against humanity, ten years in the Sunken Place Gulag.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 17 points 3 months ago

I need to rewatch Get Out.

Supposed to being the key thing here.

As you know, Western "democracy" is nothing but a farce.

[-] FnordPrefect@hexbear.net 65 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

If one were to make this argument, (and no one should), I would say that Biden's persistent disregard for the consent of the governed is a much better fit than the shit they're shoveling

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 44 points 3 months ago

At no point did a sane person look at covid, climate change, and trump and think "Joe Biden could fix this. "

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago

And here we are being told that he will be made leader and that you're recreating personal trauma for having a problem with that.

Biden is a president who has no concern for anyone's consent.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

Joe was never chosen to beat Trump or solve anything. He was chosen to stop Bernie

[-] Chronicon@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

ayup. Buttigieg was too much of a stretch and burned by the scandal in iowa so they gave it to Joe, simple as. To the real power brokers and ghouls even "roll over and do whatever the DNC wants" warren was too radical.

The Bionic Man series, but it's dnc ghouls using the technology at their disposal to drag Biden's carcass through every election for the last forty years.

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 30 points 3 months ago

Not to mention his disregard for the consent of children whose hair he sniffs

pepe-silvia maybe-later-kiddo yeah but she moved to RuZZia!

[-] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 27 points 3 months ago

[A condemnation of|An indictment against] the so-called progressives that chased her there. Some crusaders against rape culture, to chase an assault survivor into the arms of their existential enemy. White liberals are really fucking good at that, historically speaking.

[-] NapoleonBlownApart@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago

Yup, then they can turn around and point to the thing they caused to happen as evidence of the others nefarious plans

[-] TomBombadil@hexbear.net 57 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Don't immediately respect literally any no? You're a rapist!

Can I have some food I'm starving to death?

No!

Please??

Yup that's a rapist

My medicine please?

No I don't like that your trans

I'll die without

Fuckin rapists

Liberals are vile creatures

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 54 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I'm glad these people are going to lose. Invoking sexual assault to defend a rapist carrying out a genocide (where sexual assault is happening) is fucking something else. Real "everything is rape except actual rape, which is fine when we do it" vibes.

They deserve the all relentless mockery their myopic, wretched-taste condescension earns them. I want them to gain some fucking perspective.

[-] Red_sun_in_the_sky@hexbear.net 40 points 3 months ago

American empire subjugates people, does genocide, conducts decades of pogroms with incalculable amount of devastation.

Average liberal genius defends empire : Ummmm if you don't support my chosen genocide overseer, then its akin to rape culture.

[-] niph@hexbear.net 40 points 3 months ago

To libs, words have no actual meaning. The only use for them is to help them sound like they’re good/smart/winning an argument.

[-] Storm@hexbear.net 25 points 3 months ago

It's aesthetics. That's why they hate trump. It's not that he does horrible things. It's because he doesn't know the difference to, two, and too.

[-] M68040@hexbear.net 36 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I feel like there’s a fundamental difference between the exertion of pressure as part of the political process, and the exertion of pressure in a fundamental violation of one’s personal space and autonomy.

A reach on par with claiming a connection between “farms” and “farts” because they’re spelled mostly the same. Or perhaps because they’re both words within the same language

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 17 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)
[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 32 points 3 months ago

There’s a lot of similarities between the people telling me to stop taking shits on park benches and rape culture

From the political ideology that brought us "Jeremy Corbyn reminds me of my abusive ex boyfriend"

[-] Chronicon@hexbear.net 15 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Voters: isn't there someone you forgot to ask?

(I don't know a single person excited to vote Biden even among lifelong committed dems. Most wish for a less repugnant option from the dem roster)

[-] Pentacat@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

Biden is a rapist. He’s too senile to rape.

Biden is a genocider. If people get him drop out of the race, he can’t genocide anymore, either.

Just what can Biden do? The world is being very cruel to him.

[-] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Me: Please stop orchestrating a genocide.

Hitler: No means no, untermensch!

[-] HexBeara@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

Asking Genocide Joseph to step down and let someone more cognitively sound is just like the Holocaust. I am smart, all the people I surround myself say so.

[-] machiabelly@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

Holy shit I read this wrong and it took me forever to figure it out. I thought she was saying that Biden was ____ing us by staying in the race. Which, tbf, makes way more sense.
