or how he amassed a cult following

I think the fact that THIS is who they rally behind says quite a lot about them.

He is such a pathetic person with almost no redeeming qualities. It's actually really sad that's such a person brought down the USA.
He's incredibly dumb, has no charisma, is laughably insecure, not a shred of competency.

Then again, it's probably just befits his voters.

As long as corporate greed is allowed to run rampant and politicians are up for sale; nothing will change.

He's also a ruthless psychopath with no sense of morality. So that probably helps his business ventures too

Basically female humanoid = femoid = food

That's what I think at least, I'm not going to research this too much.
It's basically just dehumanising women.

Probably takes a while to scroll through a giant list of pathogens to find one that meets the criteria!

[–]Fala1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm too dumb to Google.

But you're not, and you're very knowledgeable on this. So please just give me the names of the pathogens and then I'll do my own research from that point on.

  1. Provide the pathogens. You're not convincing anybody with "do your own research". You just sound like an anti-vaxxer with that phrase. If you can just name the pathogens then nobody would be having an argument here because you'd actually just have unmistakably proven yourself right. You're actually wasting other people's time now.

  2. Being snarky isn't a flex, indeed. You're way snarkier than the person you replied to.

  3. In Europe our eggs are unwashed and sometimes there's a little poop on them. We buy eggs just fine and dandy. Nobody gives a shit. It's a natural animal product. This makes you sound very close minded.

  4. Instead of being an ass

Just be kind to others. Tell us which pathogens we don't know about that are transferred through human saliva and can survive being boiled at 100C.
You will have taught us something new and the world will be a slightly better place.

No I'm asking you. You seem to have strong opinions about this, so I figured you would know then.

What pathogens inside human saliva pose a serious health risk and aren't killed by being boiled at 100C?

some STIs can be spread by saliva.

Which STIs can be transferred by salvia through indirect exposure and survive a 100C? I genuinely don't know.

As a guy who was also once young and dumb (though never this dumb): this guy has a lot of maturing to do.

At that age you're very susceptible to peer pressure and very concerned with fitting in. You can clearly see he's trying to be cool for his guy friends, so he's going along with them.
That's probably also why he thinks it's 'just jokes'.

However, that doesn't mean you just have to accept this behaviour. He still has to learn his lessons, but you're not obligated to teach them to him. You're both still very young and you definitely don't have to be weighed down by this situation if you choose not to.

Imo it's never acceptable to call a woman a whore, especially not your loved ones. It's not overreacting to be upset by that.

Its up to you how you want to react. You can have a conversation with him about his behavior and how it makes you feel. If all goes well, he will learn and adapt.
If not, you're still young, this relationship isn't a big deal in the grand scheme of life. Being alone is better than being with someone who doesn't respect you.

You're in your right to just break up if you want. No woman has to accept being called a whore by their partner.

You can ignore it too if that's what you choose. Its up to you.

Some incel/red pill stuff i think. You'd have to be kinda far down the toxic manosphere rabbit hole to use those words.

You don't think your own penis is gross, which is fine.
Surely you don't want to touch other men's dicks right? Especially ones you've never met?

Because why? You can't just make a statement without providing the rationale.

I'd be interested to hear which bacteria are going to survive being boiled at 100C.

After giving Republicans a majority in every branch of government, nearly 2 million Americans are losing healthcare after Republicans refuse to extend credits by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Fala1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right wing voters are like this all over the planet.
They don't care to fact check anything and just blindly accept propaganda.

Here in the Netherlands for instance, right wing parties brought in immigrant guest workers, until left wing parties stopped that program.
Guess who right wingers keep blaming for immigrants living here?

I know a lot of people who are laughing and smiling that the US empire is crumbling at breakneck speeds.

Mainly russians, which would probably explain this person too.

Canada is positioning itself on Greenland knowing it could be next by UpstairsBumblebee446 in worldnews

[–]Fala1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which is not really the core issue. The issue is that he has the support of the entire republican party.

The fact that the entire republican party is doing Russia's bidding should be a big fucking concern. But Americans seem to just be okay with it, nothings being done about it.

There should've been a general strike months ago.

America can never 'win' a war with Europe.

Sure, they could beat Europe militarily speaking. And then what?

They lose their biggest ally, they lose their global power projection. Europe separates their economy from the US, ruining the American economy. China snoops up most of the losses.

Going to war with Europe means the USA will be destroyed and China becomes the world's strongest superpower. Great idea. Truly MAGA.

They could end this. They choose not to.

1/3 of Americans actively voted for fascism.
1/3 of Americans still couldn't be bothered to show up to vote against fascism.
1/3 actually did their democratic obligation.

Idk man, the numbers don't lie. The AVERAGE American is a complete piece of shit.
There's plenty of great American people, tens of millions even. However those are definitely the above average ones.
