A special "go fuck yourself" to Virginia Foxx and Mike Johnson.
And they are probably aware of that. The suffering is the point.
That’s what happens when you put people in leadership positions who earnestly believe that empathy is a ‘fundamental weakness’. Ya know, ignoring that empathy is precisely what’s made us successful as a species in the first place.
More suffering -> more crime and more unrest.
More crime and more unrest -> more they can justify future power grabs, increased surveillance, and use of military power on domestic soil.
I can't think of a place more deserving of a mass-shooting than this room.
Ya know....it's not often you root for the public shooter.
The times we live in.
I want off this ride.
We can exit the ride at any time. Few are willing to climb out of the top car of the stranded Ferris wheel and scale down, though, and in this case, it's enough or nothing. So far it's nothing.
I mean if you had no idea who Rambo was and you just like saw that shit on your lunch break or something... That's wild. You don't know who the fuck this short muscle-bound speech deficient asshole is. He's screaming and popping off rounds like end of days shit. Wild.
There are approximately 146,000 people named Mario in the US alone. Any one of them could do the FUNNIEST THING.
Invite them all for dinner, and take care of the entire problem at once.
Exactly what I thought. Nobody has made it more possible than the people in this room.
We won't know for sure unless we try.
I'd rather a dead useless martyr, than an active live Nazi.
So was the Nazi leadership more dangerous as dead martyrs or were they more dangerous when they were living?
There is an awful lot of white in this picture.
See if you can spot the one black guy. Like where's waldo but uncle tom version.
I think it's pronounced "hwite"
It's a bunch of murderous ghouls celebrating the death of poor people.
They should post this picture at every rural hospital they close.
And send it to everyone diagnosed with a life-threatening illness that won't be able to pay for treatment.
I'm sure they already know who they are. Republicans have tried to kill those that depend on social safety nets for decades.
The majority of these people should be in retirement homes. Bad ones.
The majority of these people should be a few meters under IMO.
After being turned into a fine paste of course.
and their remains sent to the furthest reaches of the universe, so their Stardust doesn’t get used in anything anymore.
Johnson is wearing a condom just in case he needs to report is cumming to his son
I wonder what the combined financial net worth of this photo is because the calculation for the combined human value shown in this photo is easy
That is zero
Human value is worthless, when you rolling like these biG DoGs.
what a beautiful place to throw around my weirdly heavily bouncy ball 💣

We need a government willing to hold them accountable.
You need a public who is willing to hold them accountable first.
I hope someday to see a hero get caught with this photo but there are red x's over the ones he's already taken out.
They aren't unstoppable. There are a lot of them for sure, but there are at least as many bullets in the US.
I wish I could find something that made me as happy as Republicans killing poor people.
step one. dress one to two dozen terminal patients who are about to die from lack of health coverage as ice agents. masked up.
step two. arm them.
step three. wait for next congressional hearing. when they are all gathered together.
step four. uphold the second amendment.
the diabetics can save the US from the 1 percent.
Killing some old white dudes with other old people is not the tactic to rely on.
You need the young and radicalized who are terminal.
I wish, wish, wish I had faith in the system, checks and balances, and all that bullshit.
Violence should only be used in self defense when violence is going to be used on you, or to protect other who can not protect themselves.
Fascism, sadly, only seems to understand pain and suffering. I suppose a clean kill is more merciful than that, though I can't say I condone it outright.
Violence should only be used in self defense when violence is going to be used on you, or to protect other who can not protect themselves.
my friend, this is self defense.
they are about to kill millions of americans. through neglect, and theft of their hard earned tax dollars.
again.
you should feel no guilt when a small group of mass murdering psychopaths feel the wrath of universal karma. your conscience is clean.
How come literally everyone misses the part where they're getting rid of renewable energy and completely obliterating nature and the climate? It's not just going to be millions of Americans. It's going to be million and millions everywhere.
every step helps
Green mario has something to say
Migrants will die disproportionately. MAGAS will be happy when they die painfully because immigrants will have it worse
didn't the migrant population vote for trump too though
some did.
what are you implying? that all immigrants deserve it because some immigrants voted for trump?
some Jews voted for Hitler, does that mean the holocaust was deserved?
not at all? the comment thread started with saying magats will get the brunt of it. then someone said no, migrants would. so i said the migrants voted for Trump anyways. nowhere is there any implication anyone deserves it, unless that's just what you're looking to see
As an Australian I am constantly amazed that no matter how racist, homophobic, greedy, stupid, selfish and blatantly self-serving America’s government representatives are, you continue to vote for them.
We arent so committed to the red vs blue ideology. If I vote for blue one term and they don’t perform I’ll vote red or green or independent next term.
Unfortunately, the way things are going, your vote might not make a difference for much longer.
Yyyyeah. Unfortunately we're not actually a democratic nation- land and especially money count for more than actual people when it comes to voting. Gerrymandering just reinforces it, and ensures an undemocratic result.
the original version of USA was more explicit about land mattering, because you couldn't vote without it.
America is like the beta version of liberal democracy that launched far too soon with a constitution full of bugs and the developers decided to make it nearly impossible to patch.
Doesn't the coal industry control your government? And remind me where Rupert Murdoch came from.
If I vote for blue one term and they don’t perform I’ll vote red or green or independent next term.
uh, I'm pretty sure that's a factor to how America got to the way it is.
To be clear, Australia is not perfect by a long stretch, but our politicians are much more discrete in their desire for enrichment, we also have a lot more guard rails in place to prevent it, while they are in office.
While there is obviously big business trying to influence government decisions, that will always happen regardless of who we vote in. My point is, if the person you vote for isn’t clearly concerned with improving the lives of their constituents you should absolutely fuck them off and not continually vote for them for decades.
One of the parties is blatantly racist, homophobic, greedy, stupid, and selfish, and they celebrate it, they are proud of it. The other party is not. The other party has issues, but they are worlds apart. There is no excuse not to aggressively vote blue at every opportunity.
Sad part is.? I can't even make a dark job more depressing than that statement.
Cowards bending the knee to the idiot king.
You have to bend the knee to lick the boot.
Yeah, that worked out great for the world last time.
They did try to fuck up congress if I remember correctly. That plane was brought down in a field.
Can anyone see the token person of color or did they not even bother this time?
nope, no aa guy in the back this time, they arnt hiding it anymore. thier current token is a racist old granny in the front.
True story.
I was given a chance to talk to a bunch of high schoolers about volunteering at volunteer healthcare clinic.
Most highschoolers ignored me. They had no idea what healthcare is. They think it is free.
They feel invincible, as expected.
I stressed the importance of volunteering because there are many people are uninsured and underinsured.
One highschooler made a snide comment, "Everyone has insurance. Our family have Medicaid. It is free."
I hope life will treat her kindly.
If work provided insurance was so great, we would teach about it in school.
They teach them one fox news. Those will are too sick to work are screwe6
I don't think it's AI. Its too coherent to be. Every place on the picture where AI would usually half ass it and make some sloppy solution that looks okayish from afar, is very distinct and coherent when you zoom in.
When I’m dictator, every last one of these traitors will be in prison or worse.
why wait? I was hoping you americans would have acted by now but...psh I'm not holding my breathe anymore. almost any other country would be rioting, violently, right now but you guys have zero leaders to rally anything. and any thing close to an opposition leader you have is saying "just wait for the midterms!" yeah...ok buddy either you'll be lucky if your dear leader allows midterms to happen OR they do, dems win across the board, but most of this shit goes into effect AFTER said midterms thus the nazi's blame the dems for everything and ensure glorious leader wins a 3rd term.
shit I'll be surprised if most of you guys are still working, eating, not in a camp, or hell even alive by that point.
If you are white....rich....connected.......? Maybe not.
Sooner or later, the U.S. is going to have to face the reality that the only thing they should be seeing in a photo like that is a really good spot to have planted an improvised explosive device.
Ghouls, all of them.
Yankistanis will never reflect on their history and think their country was built for the rich, by the rich, from the very beginning. They still think it's built on some humane "values", lol.
The values like genocide, racism, sexism, slavery, oppression, segregation, xenophobia, and neocolonialism.
Useful fools.
BILL ACT 🤦♂️
is she the old ass lady in pink? the same necromancer that turned mcconnel into a lich, also is keeping her alive.
This, like so many other cruel unnecessary things, could have been easily avoided.
"But... but... muh puriteh! bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe"
vOtE fOr A wOmAn? mE?!! wHeN PIGS FLY!!!
The mental gymnastics so many non-voters use to convince themselves that their lazy mediocrity is not a HUGE part of the problem. They exert a hundred times the energy to stab themselves in the chest with a rusty knife, and as gangrene sets in, they fancy themselves as hero martyrs, because they so bravely did nothing of value to stop this. Useless deadweight flakes that they are.
we have to stop blaming voters for their apathy and instead try to understand why a campaign fails to mobilize them. scolding a voter for rejecting persistent mediocrity implies that we must accept it, simply by virtue of being less bad. pragmatically, this makes sense but not everybody has the privilege of accepting the least bad option when doing so appears to have little impact on their present untenable situation.
i exercise what little power i have to try to keep fascists from power but if others weren't motivated to do the same, we have to actually speak to their grievances. Kamala campaign had every opportunity to reach these people and instead chose to basically say, "fuck what you want, we don't need your votes." so when she gets BTFO across the country, she has nobody to blame but herself for running a campaign that failed to stand for anything her constituents cared enough to vote for (i know there is also always voter suppression that favors Republicans too but she also failed to pursue effective legal remedy for that).
yeah it sucks hard that this happened, especially so for those of us first on the chopping block for fascism. but to break the cycle, the impetus is on our politicians to be better, not on the voters to settle for worse.
bill act
4 plane's into the white house please.
No, that cunt is not in the House picture. Maybe she is feasting in the shadows.

get names and start to hold them to account; find ways to get them voted out
And held accountable. We keep voting them out and no one is charged for their crimes.
that’d be splendid - too much appointed judges and judge shopping as well
It will be funny if someone paint all the thumbs brown and then we make sure it's the brown thumbs version that goes around the web and not the original version.
12 million dead. Worse than COVID. Two thumbs up, MAGA, you Nazi fucks.
they're not dead yet
That reminds me, I need to sharpen my guillotine.
given how many idiots are in that photo AND how many Republicans are in the line of succession (99% + 1 RFK Jr), we might as well beg for a Red Wedding a la GoT style.
They are already talking about "allowing immigrants to stay on the farm". I feel like I heard of these before in history class?
SLAVE LABOUR.
Joe Wilson from South Carolina can kiss my butt, too.
Can anyone specifically point out which pieces on the bill will remove healthcare from Medicaid. I was reading through and haven’t found those parts yet. I was focusing on the rescinding for green energy tax credits.
80 hours a month!?
Work requirements. Other states have done this before. They all canned it because they found out, work requirements don't increase work. It decrease the use of those that qualify. It increases paperwork which can be rejected by errors.
You also have the SSDI part. Most people that are disabled don't qualify for SSDI.
I personally know someone that had double kidney failure. This is from a direct issue the U.S. government caused acknowledged. However, they don't what to make it easy and hope the people just die. Which is a very strong possibility. They DO NOT qualify for SSDI.
Next time they get sick, they will die. Point Blank.
If you want to read it yourself, there’s an entire section. Table of contents ….

Some did, but they won by cheating, and we ALL know it.
Miss me with that " you guys."
Fucking excuse me? I what?
Congrats on making more than $1.1 mil a year.
our last president supported segregation, Trump, Obama who had one who supported segregation as vp, bush, clinton, bush, reagan, carter, ford, nixon, johnson
been here for long time

Don't mind him, he's a little slow on a count of being a dumbass.
There's a big difference between getting a paper cut and being stabbed with a rusty sword. Neither one may be what you want, but telling people with a sword sticking out of their chest some platitude about "Yeah, but papercuts suck too" makes you sound like an absolute idiot.
Clinton explicitly didn't support segregation. One of the biggest influences in his life was his mom's parents, who he spent a significant portion of his childhood living with. They owned a grocery store and faced frequent harassment and threats because they refused to segregate their business. There's plenty to go after Big Willy for but this particular point is incorrect. You can't even shoehorn in his VP like with Obama because Gore was an avid civil rights supporter as well.
clinton? biden was last president
You listed all the back to Johnson.
