In what kind of a country does the president intervene to changing the logo of a roadside fast food spot?

squaresinger@lemmy.world · 88 pts · 353d (9 replies)

In a dictatorship.

Three downvotes on your comment and there is one commenter is either a troll or a fascist. I wasn't expecting some fascists to rear their ugly head in Lemmy lol.

I fear there is no completely nazi-free zone on the internet.

Trump derangement is strong with this one. 🤣 Where did he touch you?

Whoa... are you a MAGA?

This is fascinating. Like spotting a rare bird. I haven't seen one of you in weeks, is what I mean. I've been taking a break from mainstream social media, you see...

Anyway, what's it like having to ask strangers on the bus to read you the newspaper?

UnculturedSwine@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 12 pts · 352d

That or possibly a bot looking at the comment history.

we've been in the dumbest timeline for a good, long while now -- you're just now figuring this out?

I feel like God quicksaved about 20 years ago and is just fucking around

Early 2001, so closer to 25

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 352d (1 reply)

he really liked having a country named yugoslavia and forgot to quicksave before that ended so now he's just fucking around

outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 4 pts · 352d

So many tjings make sense now.

outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 19 pts · 353d

You know what kind.

Cracker Barrel is ass anyway

aeronmelon@lemmy.world · 40 pts · 353d (1 reply)

My one and only experience with Cracker Barrel is, “Wow, this gift shop has a restaurant attached to it.”

Madison420@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 352d

How much is that jiggly ladybug? It's the only consistently cool thing in there, I had an ex that worked there forever so I spent a bit of time there waiting.

Hatsune_Miku@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 352d (2 replies)

it was always just one big ad campaign

Dorkyd68@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 352d

Exactly. I didn't even know cracker barrel was still around until all this jazz

pyre@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 352d

doesn't matter what you call it, collaborating with fascists must bring you to a fitting end

BabyVi@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 353d (13 replies)

They're gonna force them to rename it to "White Barrel" soon.

defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 352d

Then "Aryan Barrel" when they go full mask-off.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 352d

with the byline "saltines are too spicy here"

tehmics@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 352d

Because cracker wasn't overt enough?

qarbone@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 352d

"The Superior Barrel"

LadyMeow@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 353d

I…. Kinda thought that’s basically what it was named. Lmao

Doomsider@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 353d (2 replies)

I think you meant White Cracker Barrel.

RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 353d (1 reply)

That’s redundant in this sense.

Doomsider@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 353d

If redundancy is code for hilarious, then you are correct!

Pirate420@lemmy.today · -27 pts · 353d (4 replies)

Liberals like yourself are terrible at comedy. Just stop nothing you say is funny. Cringe.

BabyVi@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 352d (1 reply)

I didn't intend to hurt your feelings. But I'm not gonna lie, it's pretty funny that I did. Thank you, it's been a long tough day and I needed that.

DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social · 5 pts · 352d

UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 353d

Idk, they've got my laughing.

We're not liberals, dipshit

Korne127@lemmy.world · 26 pts · 353d

Well, the new logo was shit. But this is awful.

tehmics@lemmy.world · 25 pts · 353d (1 reply)

If only there was some way to have nostalgia, but without the hate that comes along with it

Kowowow@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 353d

I've never seen a cracker barrel but I hate to see the "improvements" they made to the interior

nathanjent@programming.dev · 21 pts · 353d

Cracker barrel has been on the decline well before this recent news.

Trying to figure out what passes for DEI at a place explicitly associated with white nationalism.

BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 352d

The same as it does at any other company, just lip service, but now they won't even do that

sness@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 352d

Assuming we're going backwards in history, I'm guessing Irish and Italians.

Hi, this is the dumbest thing I read today.

switcheroo@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 352d

That's why you don't cave to bullies. They'll just ask for more and more. You will never win.

gens@programming.dev · 4 pts · 353d

Just because the situation is shit does not mean this is SPARTAshitposting

Pirate420@lemmy.today · -66 pts · 353d (10 replies)

Lot of crybabies on this app. The removal of DEI flags and saving Uncle Herschel on the original logo is a win for consumers. Stop trying to appease the minority when they're not even your customer base. I'd imagine half the users here have blue hair, piercings, white guilt, and pride flag bumper stickers. Touch grass.

bluelander@lemmy.ml · 45 pts · 353d (5 replies)

Boring straight white cisgendered man with regular hair and no facial piercings here: stop trying to normalize your shitty opinions by pretending like everyone thinks them. We don't.

Zink@programming.dev · 22 pts · 353d (3 replies)

Same demographic here. Suuuuper traditional looking. Single earner for my family, wife is a stay at home mom and very involved with the elementary school, and my husky bearded self was outside all day building shit with power tools and tending to my animals.

And fuck all that judgey hateful angry negative bullshit.

Touch grass, he says? So tolerating the existence of blue-haired libruls is an internet recluse thing and getting out there in the real world will set you straight?

When is the last time you touched corn stalks? Pet a dog? Pet a dog-sized fish or turtle? Sprayed yourself with a hose to cool off? Stared at the clouds? Gazed at the stars? Played with a child or an animal? Cared for others?

It's funny, you know. I remember a time when I would have answered like you. But the more stuff I learn, the more people I meet, and the more I listen to voices on the left & right while observing their actions, the more the blue-haired trans lesbians seem like me and the more voices like yours (including decades of experience with the trumpy parts of my extended family) are not just off-putting but kinda disappointing and sad.

Boring straight white cis man here, except with a piercing. I agree with other straight white man that your opinion is shitty. And I was just thinking this week that I should get some pride bumper stickers to support my friends.

surewhynotlem@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 353d

Eh... You won't catch many people with this. You spelled all your words correctly. You used the Oxford comma. 5/10.

If you want to come off as a properly ignorant bigot, lose the punctuation and capitalize random shit. You also need to say woke at least twice.

Evkob@lemmy.ca · 16 pts · 352d

I am definitely the type of person you're trying to describe here and I'm honestly just insulted you think I'd own a car. I cycle everywhere, thank you.

I do have a bunch of Pride stickers on my bike though, ya got me there!

Revan343@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 353d

Fuck off

UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 353d

a win for consumers

Price inflation at restaurants continues apace, bro. But sure, they're back to the Paper Bag Test for assistant manager promotion, so I guess the consumer is winning.

Enjoy your prize.
