Whaaaaaat? The rapist also approves of rapists? The close to 80 year old man who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy also prefers the company of men who see women as objects to be grabbed? Why are we pretending to be shocked? He’s shit and he’ll be shit until he dies, hopefully McDonalds does its job sooner or later

I read that as “Trump defiles”

Wait wait -

Trump thinks it’s “I was credibly accused of sexual assault! #MeToo”

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

Remember: a plurality of voters reinstated him, knowing fully that he has been found guilty of sexual assault in a civil case and that he openly wishes to fuck his own daughter. This is the guy who grabs women by the pussy. Why would he give a shit about women?

This abomination is brought to you by your compatriots.

So it took this guy 7 years to figure out that Trump is just as bad as all the other Hollywood rapists, and he has the audacity to present this to us as though that knowledge is breaking news in the year 2024?

And these people wonder why their industry is being replaced by podcasts.

? This is about his cabinet picks.

That venn diagram is quickly becoming a circle.

Oh my god now way…

Everyone should defy the metoo movement, what a hoax.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (3 children)

#MeToo is why the Democratic Party lost.

Or at least it makes more sense than a lot of the other reasons I've heard that don't involve the economy and low information voters.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, I'm sure that was what did it and not the whole expecting people to vote for a black woman in an extremely racist patriarchy of a country thing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Holy shit, how hard is it to tell that was sarcasm.

What is wrong with people?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

At least don't use super giant letters and make it a little more obvious you're trying to mock the weirdos, not rally them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Giant letters?

How does saying people who are against the #MeToo movement are all Trump supporters, not calling them weirdos? I don't think weird goes far enough.

Sexual assault is illegal inspite of Republicans not because of them. In nany states a rape victim is legally obligated to birth their rapists child and they think that's wonderful; Godly.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It's not calling them weirdos in their eyes, because they really do just see "#metoo" and (without understanding what it implies) they immediately register it as "godless liberal nonsense". It may look like unmistakable exaggerated sarcasm to you, but if you visit any of the places where they talk, the way you wrote is exactly what they sound like, except without any sarcasm.

Also, the hash symbol marks text as a header and it looks like this on my app:

No, the Trump party does.

How anyone would think I agree with the statement is silly.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well it seems multiple people interpreted it that way so you might want to work on your wording

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

"other reasons I’ve heard that don’t involve the economy and low information voters."

Seems pretty obvious, lemmy is just a weird toxic place where everyone jumps at the chance to argue with any comment even though we all agree about 90% of this stuff.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

/me looks at downvotes from trying to convince people to talk to Trump voters to see if they can be persuaded to, and everyone thinking I mean talk to the people who’s mind cannot be changed

Yep

I think he asked, 'Who do we have with a rape investigation? Let's go with them!" to demonstrate his misogyny to the cult.
