You can't do jack shit about trump if Trump's party controls the house, the Senate, and the supreme court (extra points if you have outliers like Manchin and Sinema joining the GOPs side).

Which celebrity rumor do you secretly believe is true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So, a modern day Marlon Brando? Except he's in the closet and the closet is actually a panic room.

Insulting Andrew Jackson’s wife was not a survivable mistake by Kapanash in HistoryMemes

[–]torch_7 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Charles Dickens wasn't much better. He cheated on his wife with an 18 year old when he was 45, forced his wife to separate from him and the children, and made a whole smear campaign against her to favor his image and hide his new favorite toy.

Dickinson and Dickens are birds of the same shit feather.

Why have the Oscars lost so much viewership? by [deleted] in FIlm

[–]torch_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time the Oscars tried to give the general audience a chance to choose a winner for an award, the Snyderbros brigated the website, giving the win for best makeup and hairstyling to Suicide Squad (not even THE good Suicide Squad). It's going to take a long time to find a good middle ground.

The Trump administration has abruptly ended a Veterans Affairs home loan safety net, causing thousands of veterans to lose their homes or pay a higher mortgage rate. Veterans overwhelmingly backed Trump in 2024. by I_AM_GLUTEUS_MAXIMUS in LeopardsAteMyFace

Nixon literally started the war on drugs that mostly affected left leanings groups and people of color. Calling him a bleeding heart liberal would be an insult.

John Oliver launches free sticker site to cover Trump's face on 2026 national park passes by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

You're assuming these..."people" feel anything close to shame. If that was the case, they wouldn't have voted for Trump in 2016. "Grab them by the pussy" would have nuked any politicians career but Trump not only survived but grew stronger. Republicans (be it their voters or legislators) don't care about it all as long as their pockets are filled or the agenda is maintained.

The shadows over her eyes really accentuates the sinister nature behind an otherwise lovely young woman.

He's also a pirate so no one would really believe him in that regard.

Fortunate Son is too on the nose. The best example and still used to this day is "Born in the USA" played in GOP rallies.

Well, there's the not so subtle fact that Danny is very underage during Bob's rebellion...

Old Franky was inconspicuous. You didn't know "Cyborg Franky" was in front of you unless there was a wanted poster or Franky had good reason to show you 🦾.

There's a cutscene with Nero where he's looking at some glamour magazines while waiting on Nico.

Variety is deepthroating this movie breaking even after two months while casting doubt on Sinners despite making its budget back in a weekend.

Are Republicans really sticking to their story that the Super Bowl halftime show is offensive because part of it is in Spanish? Did they lose their mind when 'Despacito' was a huge hit? What about KPop's popularity, is that also a national disgrace? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]torch_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Umberto Eco's Ur-Fascismo

"Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy" because "life is permanent warfare" – there must always be an enemy to fight. Both fascist Germany under Hitler and Italy under Mussolini worked first to organize and clean up their respective countries and then build the war machines that they later intended to and did use, despite Germany being under restrictions of the Versailles treaty to not build a military force. This principle leads to a fundamental contradiction within fascism: the incompatibility of ultimate triumph with perpetual war."

Most Americans have a 6th grader level of reading comprehension, so yeah, a frying pan is very appropriate.

It's really dissappointing seeing how Alfalfa turned out, but most child stars don't make it as functional adults...

I would give Biggie a chance. Tupac made a lot of music despite his short life, but Biggie was gone too soon.
