    I thought we were unhappy women who only had cats as friends.

    Now we are wolves.

    I cannot keep up with this so can we compromise and be cheetahs or something?

      It’s the same, “enemy is simultaneously weak and strong” rhetoric characteristic of fascism.

        Yeah libs are also “sheep”.

        Right wing domestic terrorists are always “lone wolfs”, and incels think they’re really “alpha males”.

        In reality the right wingers are just a bunch of insecure assholes.

      Perhaps there are two Democrats inside of you.

      Wait, do those two internal Democrats have internal Democrats themselves? Does that make every Democrat a fractal?

      The “enemy,” to people like him, are always both pathetic jokes and a horrific threat that needs to be eliminated.

      I thought they said the revolution would be “bloodless” if the left just let them have their way.

    He was having so much fun the past couple years doing these little essays on how Dems should be murdered, but it’s catching up to him now on the actual campaign trail. This isn’t your right wing bubble, couch fucker, voters are going to hold you accountable. We should just die? Not going to happen, “JD”.

      Couch fucker voters will most certainly not hold him accountable. That’s one demographic J.D. has in the bag.

    Wonder how the republicans would act if we went around saying they are vermin who should be slaughtered.

    Gosh, nothing weird at all about talking about millions of Americans in the same way the Nazis talked about Jews, gypsies, communists, leftists, unions, POC, LGBTQ, etc…

    Just a reminder that there is a pretty high chance that this guy becomes president given Trump’s age.

      This is his plan, if not that claim trump is unfit to hold office and take his spot. He doesn’t interview like he’s in it for VP he interviews like he is going to be president and it’s weird.

    Is it only the men who are wolves? He established the women as cat ladies, but are they also wolves?

    I’m starting to think the JD Vance extended universe has no internal logic.

    This will not hurt him, if anything it will ingratiate him with the magoos. They eat this shit up.

    Imagine the fucking hypocrisy… Hillary says essentially “half the magas are a basket of deplorables” they cry foul and self select into that group, but then they go on about killing Demonrats and that’s totes ok.

    There was an asshat in Texas (I think) a few years back that said “the only good Democrat is a dead one” and the crowd went nutty cheering. Then he realized what he said and backtracked “I mean… Politically dead. You know the media will just twist my words.” Too late fucker, the audience went nutty over the thought of killing Democrats.

    “The old conservative movement argued if you just got government out of the way, natural forces would resolve problems—we are no longer in this situation and must take a different approach,” Vance continues. “As Kevin Roberts writes, ‘It’s fine to take a laissez-faire approach when you are in the safety of the sunshine. But when the twilight descends and you hear the wolves, you’ve got to circle the wagons and load the muskets.'”

    Roberts himself has recently called for a “Second American Revolution” — a modern-day repeat of the eight-year conflict that killed between 25,000 and 70,000 Americans. Roberts himself said that the second revolution will be “bloodless” but only “if the Left allows it to be.”

      “Don’t turn this rape into a murder” is apparently mainstream conservative philosophy now.

          But what are they wanting to “conserve”? Has the US ever even been what they want it to become in project 2025? Maybe in reconstruction South…

            While debatable, I believe they want to conserve a systemic hierarchy of social privilege or sense of superiority. Regardless, human cultures (at least since the renaissance) appear to have an observable gradient of ideologies that span from progressive/egalitarian to regressive/discriminatory. In western cultures, we usually refer to the latter as conservative, despite the debatability of what, exactly, they are “trying to preserve”. As polarized as we are in modern U.S. politics, “conservative” is practically a team name.
