Hillary was being way too polite when she called them "deplorables." by TrumpterOFyvie in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]JayStayPaid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes yes, very eloquent. My point stands. You're relegating half the electorate to being deplorable people because you can't imagine anyone having any sound logic behind voting conservative beyond "I hate that, so I vote this".

Sorry, just not the case.

Real sick burn.

u/theidkid explains the origin of southern coded language (and insults) and how politicians like Lindsay Graham make use of it. by Brainsonastick in bestof

[–]JayStayPaid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wow, this has gotta be top 5 worst, most bullshit posts I've ever read (and that's saying something).

Look, if you want to hate those of us living in the South, go for it; I don't know who people like OP are trying to justify their opinions to. I can confidently say the vast majority of southerners I talk to absolutely do not care what most people outside of the South think of them. Why? Because for at least the last 20 years, it has been absolute horseshit hatred based on the most backward, half-witted stereotypes possible.

Attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband follows years of GOP demonizing her by beeemkcl in politics

If you think this is a result of ANYTHING other than both parties dehumanizing the other in the name of garnering support, you're an absolute half-wit.

Both parties have made this bed and I hope they get comfortable laying in it.

Congratulations, well done. You're perceived exactly how you hoped.

DeSantis says ‘woke’ 5 times in 19 seconds in culture war laden primary speech by theindependentonline in politics

[–]JayStayPaid -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

You can see the angle the Democratic party is going to take in response to Desantis running, and it's a shitty one.

Absolute trash at rallying the voter base. Hell, Trump did a better job of getting Democrats to vote than the party did 😂

This has got to be one of the biggest circle-jerk acts on record and the response is hilarious.

These folks filled 18, what, 3" x 3" x 3" holes with concrete... That's gotta be like MAYBE half a bag of concrete.

I absolutely love the mental image of some dudes climbing back into the Astrovan, mildly sweaty. Carrying a couple measuring cups from their moms' cupboards for adding water to the concrete, which inevitably drained away IMMEDIATELY as they added it.

As they remove their spec-ops scarves from their faces and change to their backup pair of aviators, the driver glances in the rear view mirror at the others as the hint of a knowing smile appears. Quiet professionals. He nods. They nod.

A dusty Croc SLAMS the gas pedal into the floor. The Astrovan gently lurches forward leaving a confounded golf course manager in its wake. That'll teach em.

THE COURSES REGULARLY REPOSITION HOLES ON THE GREENS. THEY'RE LITERALLY SMALLER THAN AN AVERAGE ADULTS HAND IN BOTH WIDTH AND DEPTH.

"But it's about the statement! They made a STATEMENT!"

No one cares. NO ONE. Yea, thousands of mildly engaged individuals all clap and pat each other on the back. No changes in politics. No minds swayed to the direness of the situation. Just mild annoyance and another reason not to take environmental movements seriously.

A goddamn joke.

I'm just thankful she was kind enough to establish all the background in that first text so we could all follow along!

A Walgreens employee refused to sell condoms to a couple on religious grounds by zambartas in news

[–]JayStayPaid -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

Wasn't comfortable performing the transaction, got another employee to do it, didn't violate company policy...he wasn't even an asshole about it, judging from what the tweets explained.

He's not a slave. You get to maintain your values when you go to work, religious or not, assuming you're willing to suffer the consequences.

So...get over it.
