    You can tell calling them weird is getting under their skin with them attempting to label everything as weird, their hope is to dilute it.

      That’s how they deal with everything. After Jan 6, everything was an insurrection. After the GOP pedos are labeled as groomers, everyone’s a groomer. After they get called weird, everything is weird.

      It’s rule #1 in the conservative playbook.

      That’s why I think using a word that isn’t as strong like “weird” is so good, it’s more effective against this tactic.

      Democrats have slowed the flow of dishing out “weird”, at the DNC they basically reserved that word just for Tim Walz and maybe one or two other speakers. However, Republicans keep calling themselves out as weird when trying to label totally normal things as that. They effectively are keeping that representation alive to their own detriment.

      Which is perfect, because they are weird and don’t actually understand what normal people think is weird.

      So now they are weird and desperate, desperately claiming everything is weird - except it’s only weird to them, which confirms that they are weird, which makes them even more desperate to not be perceived as weird, and continues to push them into even weirder territory.

      A normal response to being called weird when doing something relatively normal is generally indifference/acceptance - but aggressively pushing back (their only play) simply confirms the accusation has merits.

      Drown these weirdos in their weird behaviour, weird understanding of relationships, and their weird perception of the world.

      The party of “Us VS Them” is slipping into “them” territory because the “Us” group will never own that label, and there is nothing they can do about it, because it’s objectively true.

      Labeling this weird is the weirdest fucking thing I can think of right now.

      I kind of feel bad for them… They likely have zero idea what a healthy relationship looks like. They see innocent expressions of love, and they think “that’s not right”.

      Coulter probably watched “The Green Mile” and cheered when John Coffey was executed.

      I think it’s clear that since conservatives don’t have children that love them because they treat them like garbage,they are completely unfamiliar with a positive emotion towards a parent and thus think it’s a communist plot.

          My mom said the same thing. Now, in my adult life, I still have all my original Pokemon cards and game cartridges, but I don’t talk to that cunt any more.

            What’s your favourite Pokémon? I like Blaziken because Pokémon Ruby was the first pokemon game I got to have a save for myself. I called her Ember and it was the only Pokémon I had named at that point (because I’m uncreative)

              I remember going to a friends house, and he had Pokémon red/blue on his gameboy (I don’t remember exactly which) I played for hours straight, like I don’t remember if we even hung out lol. I love Charizard, a fire breathing, flying dragon sign me the fuck up please! I never named my Pokémon, I’m also uncreative.

      For “conservatives” it definitely is. They only know hate and resentment.

    I honestly had no idea he had a disability until he started being bullied for it. When I first saw the photo, I thought it was a natural human reaction. If my dad was accepting the VP nomination, I probably wouldn’t be able to stop crying either.

    These weirdos don’t understand what being human is.

      My dad won a local town council seat and I got a little choked up with pride. It’s a totally normal reaction for people who love their parents.

      I agree. They’re so weird, conservatives. Like that’s what you have to complain about, a kid getting emotional?

        Getting emotional about literally his own father? Meanwhile you can take photos like this at any Trump event, except it’s some random Trump cultist who’s just happy to bathe in the orange aura.

      I had no idea who Tim Walz was before this. I’m over in the UK, so that’s no wonder, but it seems like many Americans didn’t know of him either. He seems like a pretty cool dude who was beloved locally, but not well known on the wider stage. Now people all across the US and the rest of the world are learning of him and are genuinely feeling a bit more hopeful about the US. You’re God damn right I’d be crying.

        It’s such a natural reaction that I legitimately worry about these people’s family lives.

    Anne Coulter publically cyber-bullies neurodivergent minors among her many other instances of blatant racism, homophobia and other bigotries and yet still has a job and a national platform. Can we cancel this bitch already?

    One criticism I have of Tim is that he needs to stop cutting his son’s hair like that

      It’s sometimes really hard to get our neurodivergent youngin to sit down and let us cut his hair. Maybe they have similar struggles

      This seems like a very conservative comment. Perhaps you care too strongly about other people’s haircuts.

        Yeah sure, a bad haircut joke that implies that I have nothing actually bad to say about him means I’m with the people against women rights, queer people, immigrants and democracy.

        Are the people making fun of Trump’s orange face, wig and ill fitting suits also conservatives?

    It’s funny because the only thing I know about this lady is from her appearance on one of the comedy central roasts and pretty much everyone just ripped her apart mercilessly.

    It might as well have been her roast with how much you could tell no one else was really joking.

    I would be so proud to see this if he was my son. I think most normal dad’s would. I can really relate to his emotional response, so to see this wicked cunt say such a thing is crossing thresholds in me.

    What is it going to take to get rid of these evil, mean, talking heads that have risen up in the whirls of their leaders’ stench? A switch has flipped in me, and my anger is leaking.
