Remember how the other party was gonna fire the death ray. They never did, but the guy firing it now said that they would. I'm glad I didn't vote for them. Who knows how bad it would have been if they fired the death ray.
I just had a "Christian" defend doing that with a string of Bible verses. Not even kidding. According to them, "charity shouldn't be mandatory" and it's in the Bible and this means killing millions of people and creating suffering in millions of others.
To be fair the values are ambiguous and not at all coherent or consistent page to page, and interpretations have managed to somehow adapt to the mindset of the ruling class for over 1500 years.
Not the US, but I have an acquaintance who is a "Christian". She's an immigrant. She goes to church with mostly nonwhite immigrants. She's extremely racist, among other things. You can't make that shit up 🤷🏻
No, I was replying to the comment about being American is all about hurting the right people... someone asked if they wanted to hurt fascists and I said no because they apparently love fascism now (referring to all the MAGAtards)
Yea I was trying to make a joke, the other commentator said "Did you mean to say" and I was thinking instead of loving fascists, they follow fascists or are fascists
"I don't really mind pedophiles in the oval office because they haven't rape my children" is partially true. My take on maga is that they tolerate whatever rich people do because deep down, they know they would do the same things if they had the opportunity. That's the point they reached.
My only grip is that it should be a private company death ray. The government just decides who the death ray is allowed to zap
"In a 531-4 historic vote the government is limiting the death ray to not target citizens on their own private property. This does not extend to illegals or private property that isn't owned by the citizen. For more on this we found a guy worth 4 million and asked his opinion on the matter"
An incomprehensible idiot: "I HATE YOOOOOOUUUUU! I HAAAAAATE YOOOOOUU"
My only grip is that it should be a private company death ray.
Nothing particularly private about ICE. Nevermind the bloated municipal police forces or the $1.5T military. The current Trump government has been more interested in nationalizing companies or integrating them into government administrations than any government in living memory. Intel is a state owned enterprise. Palantir might as well be a department of the NSA. SpaceX is a subsidiary of NASA and the Pentagon. Amazon's out there producing movies for the First Lady just to stay in Donald's good graces.
We've privatized the profits, but the chief executive's minions are firmly in control of the policies.
I support the death ray. It's needed to keep us safe from the bad people. I am disappointed that it killed my wife and kids, but I'd definitely vote for the death ray again.

Then when it hits someone they know, they get upset that the government in using the death ray on the wrong people.
Never crosses their mind that maybe the government shouldn't be using a death ray at all.
