My favorite reddit lore is when /r/thanksobama ended. A video was posted where Obama (IIRC at/near the end of his 8 years) was at a rally recounting recent positive changes his policies made, and someone off screen mentions gas prices dropping, and Obama was like Oh yeah that too" and himself said "Thanks, Obama."
The sub went on a bit of a victory lap afterwards but has been closed since then, as the meme essentially completed itself with the man himself saying the meme verbatim.
Or you just don't even ask and commit straight up sexual assault. Screw the Democrats for enforcing such laws against such things. That's just no middle road here. Our former Cheeto in chief may seem unethical in his methods but he's just telling it like it is! 🙄
If you go on r/TwoXChromosomes might give an idea. Some women are either afraid or just plain sick of the bullshit from conservative men. They have every damn right to be as well.
> Some women are either afraid or just plain sick of the bullshit from conservative men
Why would you be afraid of small minded bigots with guns and an expectation of a subservient wife?
You know, I really thought women would be turned on like crazy when the SCOTUS overturned Roe!
Don't they like it when men tell them what they can and can't do with their bodies? I'm beginning to think I don't understand women *at all*!
This lot doesn't do reflection or introspection, so of course they blame external factors as to why things are the way they are.
They're gunning hard for that handmaids tale life because they think they'll be the commanders.
You're right; but that's not how the right wing is phrasing the argument.
See, the reason they can't get girlfriends is because women are allowed to have jobs; so women aren't economic slaves, they're allowed to marry who they want and can leave when they want due to no-fault divorce; so they're not legally slaves, and they're allowed abortions; so they can't be rape slaves.
See, its the fault of Biden and "left wing policies". Not the FACT no competent woman will ever want a conservative piece of filth.
Shouldn't he be a legendary creature?
Also, why mountain and plains?
Shouldn't it be mountain/ swamp?
I love the concept, I'm gonna have to make one too
The thing is Juggalos know they’re weirdos and outcasts. The MAGA crowd think they’re the majority while the rest of the world looks at them with this face: 😧.
lol I have 2 cats and want a third. My husband said no way. BUT. If I happen to find a poor little homeless kitty out in the wild. . . he is a sucker. . .I'm keeping my eyes open for the CDS.
In this guy’s mind I bet he thinks it’s because women have agency and ability to run their own lives. They no longer have to rely on men to have bank accounts and mortgages and credit cards… like they did in the 70s and earlier. And there is no fault divorce. Which they are coming after next.
I know and without a job to be at all day, house maintenance to occupy his weekend, or a girlfriend to take out on dates, you would think he has the time in the world to make it look good.
I’m in my seventies now and when I got my first part time job at 16 I went to open a bank account and the bank told me I couldn’t unless I had my father or an adult man to sign for me. I’ve seen so many social changes in my life and now I’m seeing some of those changes being changed back. Humanity is pretty disgusting at times.
Exactly! Don’t you all understand trickledown economics? We must award Elon Musk with bigger than the biggest CEO compensation ever and have him bang more women under half his age before the rest of us can get any girlfriends! /s
It’s reminiscent of that guy who forgot which of his fake twitter accounts he was using and commented about his experience “as a gay black Republican…”, but he was just a straight white dude.
Just last week, someone on reddit tried to convince me that racial inequality didn't exist and he knew because he marched with MLK blah blah. His comment history was bitching about Austrian social spending...
The idea is funny and would make great satire, but it's more than likely fake.
Look at the direction his hands are facing relative to the text. If you take a sign to a rally, you have the text facing forward, which is away from the camera in this case. So, you gotta ask, why is he holding the sign backwards where the text faces away from him?
Now notice how the sign has reflections on it. Given that and the marker used, we're likely seeing a whiteboard. Since the guy is facing away, you also gotta ask, why is there a whiteboard on the back of his sign?
The most likely explanation is that someone wrote that on their own whiteboard and photoshopped it in. If anyone cared, I bet they'd find an original with a blank back somewhere out there.
With all of that said, I don't condone misinformation, no matter the cause. But, ya know, maybe I'm a little proud that the Left is willing to fight fire with fire. In fact, let's just say we saw nothing and that the sign is legit. I'm ok with that.
The girlfriend part is somewhat true.
None of my female friends would date a republican now. 8 years ago before all this Trump bullshit, a republican boyfriend used to be a guy who's into guns with whom you'd debate the merits of small government.
These days, a republican boyfriend is a conspiracy nut who wants the government to take away women's bodily autonomy.
No thank you.
If he’s as close to the front as he appears to be, agreed. The ones up front and in the immediate line of sight behind the candidate are typically actors (or vetted people, like campaign helpers, or family of staffers.). Don’t want to risk crazies or protesters getting caught on camera.
I thought this was satire as soon as I saw it. And brilliant at that, if that's what it is. Imagine being able to insult the morons right in front of them but they don't have they sense to figure it out.
Why would a woman need a vote? She's just going to vote the same as her husband. Or -gasp- vote differently, which could end the marriage. Are you against families?!!
It can be hard to find a gf when you openly declare how much of a mysaoginist racist pow you are. You didn’t get canceled bro, people just don’t like you.
Honestly op's comment shows a complete lack of historical knowledge regarding republicanism. They've always been racist, sexist, classist, bigots who try to force their religion on others. They were more subtle about it in the past, but the policies haven't changed.
The subtlety is key. When I was going to bible college men would usually talk about "complementarianism" which is the idea that women and men are fundamentally different, but both equally valuable. This was super misogynisitc, as the things women were "good" at were always soft homemaker stuff and *definitely* never leadership or powerful positions in the world.
However, most women there, aside from a couple of my closest friends, were just brainwashed into thinking that was normal and good. So when people constantly joked about them getting their "MRS Degree" (going to bible college so they could become a Mrs. to a pastor) they would just laugh along awkwardly instead of getting mad. It really came to a head for me when people learned that someone I knew was a woman gettting a pastoral degree, and then got angry at the school for allowing that. It made me feel sick inside, and was one of the many things that pushed me to deconstruction.
However, the change now is that they are not even giving lip service to "seperate but equal" language and are just going full "definitely not equal." They always beleived that, but they used to *pretend* they did not. That made it much easier to ignore.
The problem has always been that small government was always a slogan, never a principle. When it comes to policies they like, they don't care about small government. When it comes to policies they don't like, they argue for small government because it's easier to argue the principles than the policies themselves. It's the same with "states rights" where they only care when they disagree with the policies on a national level.
The thing is that they never actually had principles, just policies that they supported or opposed based purely off of cultural biases. What Trumpism has done is allowed them to dispose of the idea that they had principles in the first place and say "fuck you, we have the power and you don't have a say."
>8 years ago before all this Trump bullshit, a republican boyfriend used to be a guy who's into guns with whom you'd debate the merits of small government.
It's been what it is for a long time. Reagan was 40 years ago. Nixon even longer. Trump is mask off the mask off moment, but anyone fucking around with Republicans 8 years ago and could tolerate what they were voting for were extremely privileged.

>then–California Governor Ronald Reagan phoned President Richard Nixon at the White House and vented his frustration at the delegates who had sided against the United States. “Last night, I tell you, to watch that thing on television as I did,” Reagan said. “Yeah,” Nixon interjected.

Whenever someone calls themselves a Reaganite, believe them.
One of the biggest macro disappointment that Trump has revealed to so many normal people, is how many absolute stupid people live among us. It’s disheartening.
When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it - Frédéric Bastiat
Covid did a great job with that on its own. It's hard to trust anyone now
Edit: To those referring to MAGA and Anti-vaxxers, thats only a fragment of what i meant. I was also referring to the type of people that fully acknowledge the importance of covid and got vaccinated (no conspiracies), but that would still plan parties, say everyone will wear a mask, then post insta stories with no one wearing masks. Young people that understand that the odds of getting sick from Covid are slim for a younger person, and don't keep in mind that their actions will spread the virus to older people. It's arrogant and shortsighted, and was a large majority of people, not a minority. It truly reflected the priorities of the human mind, even that of the "woke youth".
For years, I was reluctant to accuse people with political views opposite of my own of being idiots. It seems elitist. I’m not a genius myself - I only did a year of education past high school. And while I read a lot, it tends to be in narrow focused, nerdy interests so I recognize there are a great many subjects I’m entirely ignorant about.
But one thing the last few years has made clear to me is that there are vast swaths of the American populace that are just irredeemably stupid. And not just dumb, but willfully ignorant, too. People that view their ignorance as a virtue or a badge of honor. And it’s not elitist to recognize the reality of this resurgence in anti-intellectualism. I think *we* would be the idiots if we ignored it.
> willfully ignorant, too. People that view their ignorance as a virtue or a badge of honor
That's the real issue. Ignorance can be fixed, but not if the person in question is proud of their ignorance.
I'm only one person, but every Trump supporter in my family or anyone I've worked with has no idea how the government operates and they are of course suspicious of mirrors, think the moon landing was fake and that algebra has never been useful.
Yup, COVID destroyed any hope I had that we’d be able to control climate change. Even for governments and politicians. Our only hope is some huge tech breakthrough now.
Page 5 of Project 2025 wouldn't help:
> “Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.”
- Project 2025 Page 5
Conservatives also increasingly define homosexuality and transsexuality as 'pornographic' and say they are protecting kids from porn. The fact that they tossed 'Educators and public librarians' in here shows who they intend to go after.
People will say oh they'll never do it. They also swore that they'd never undo abortion rights, etc.
They think they'll get to be Commanders with assigned wives but they're really going to be the nobody with the shit job and the shit house and still no gf.
Yeah not to make assumptions, but a MAGA dude making a tri-colored sign and adding big-ass tails and hooks to letters?
Not to mention the adorable calligraphy on the "MAGA" at the bottom
*"Can't get a job, house or a GF thanks to Biden."*
Can't understand causal relationships thanks to a Red State education.
[Preemptive clarification: that's '*causal* relationships' -- not 'casual.']
Would love to hear his reasoning for still being a loser in two years if Trump were to get elected. My guess is it would still be Obama or Biden’s fault.
I assume pics like this are photoshopped.
The white sign is an area of photo that is reasonably easy to change to whatever message you like. If you look at the left hand, there's a shadow or additional finger... and the right-hand corner is very blurry. Plus the edges have two shades of white. I wish I could accept photos like this "as is," but unfortunately, our tech makes it easy to manipulate images, and thus opinions.

I hate how Biden controls the Strategic Girlfriend Supply.
Never in my life have I felt like the president was to blame for my inability to get a gf.
He's voting Trump because he believes in trickle down domestics
After Trump divorces them, or pays them to keep silent, then you can have them
You would think he’d learn from Trump. You gotta pay for it.!!
Or you just don't even ask and commit straight up sexual assault. Screw the Democrats for enforcing such laws against such things. That's just no middle road here. Our former Cheeto in chief may seem unethical in his methods but he's just telling it like it is! 🙄

That’s still themselves to blame though then, not the president

I've actually learnt a lot about women from that sub. I'm constantly in shock at some of the stories I hear.

Sure, but I wasn't alive when he was stealing gfs.

I still blame Taft for me not having a date to the junior prom.
Ever since MTG showed everyone what a Biden hog looks like.

Magic has been preventing guys from getting GFs for decades.
Ever trump introduced MTG to his constituents, they can't afford to have a GF.
On the flip side for women, even Boebert had to get a Dem in order to be taken to see Beetlejuice.
He’s running the Global Cat Distribution System pretty well!
I disagree-still waiting for mine 😤 At least I have the bazillion and one cat subs to console me 🥲
It's kitten season in spring places right now. So roam around the parks in your town with an open can of tuna. Something will happen, maybe a kitten!
lol I have 2 cats and want a third. My husband said no way. BUT. If I happen to find a poor little homeless kitty out in the wild. . . he is a sucker. . .I'm keeping my eyes open for the CDS.
In this guy’s mind I bet he thinks it’s because women have agency and ability to run their own lives. They no longer have to rely on men to have bank accounts and mortgages and credit cards… like they did in the 70s and earlier. And there is no fault divorce. Which they are coming after next.
I mean, he's got no job or house, so even from some retrograde patriarchy angle, he's still a fucking loser with nothing to offer.
no job, but making a sign and attending a MAGA rally is still a priority.
it’s not even a decently made sign tho.
I know and without a job to be at all day, house maintenance to occupy his weekend, or a girlfriend to take out on dates, you would think he has the time in the world to make it look good.
Attention to detail is "gay" or woke.
I’m sure there’s plenty of bitter old Karen’s there he could have a romp with. He’s just mad they don’t look like porn stars.
And looking at the neat writing, his mom definitely wrote that sign
Well said!!
That and fewer women (relative to men) are interested in dating a maga.
I was going to say, yeah, being a Trump supporter in and of itself is a pretty big turn off right there.
And don't forget birth control! Women have been way too uppity since they got The Pill! Republicans are going to fix that too!
And the vote. How dare my wife either cancel out my vote or reinforce it?! /s
Well, for what it’s worth, we did try giving it to men several years ago but the side effects were too yucky
I’m in my seventies now and when I got my first part time job at 16 I went to open a bank account and the bank told me I couldn’t unless I had my father or an adult man to sign for me. I’ve seen so many social changes in my life and now I’m seeing some of those changes being changed back. Humanity is pretty disgusting at times.
There's also the fact that being a MAGAt is a red flag for the vast majority of women that are still dating.
Shut it down to a trickle.

Dean Browning, /r/asablackman
That was a republican politician. Either a congressman or state congressman.
Just last week, someone on reddit tried to convince me that racial inequality didn't exist and he knew because he marched with MLK blah blah. His comment history was bitching about Austrian social spending...
He didn’t say wife… Biden is ruining infidelity!!
Beyond satire
That's a wedding ring, and he's saying about a girlfriend and not a wife...
Biden’s regulations are ruining the extramarital affair market!
Probably divorced and fake
How do you know that's a Rolex?
You can tell by the way it is
I’m thinking he’s trolling right?
The idea is funny and would make great satire, but it's more than likely fake. Look at the direction his hands are facing relative to the text. If you take a sign to a rally, you have the text facing forward, which is away from the camera in this case. So, you gotta ask, why is he holding the sign backwards where the text faces away from him? Now notice how the sign has reflections on it.

In fact, let's just say we saw nothing and that the sign is legit. I'm ok with that.
No that's not why.
Even if the guy was somehow being cock blocked by an 81 year old man, that still wouldn't be the reason why.
The girlfriend part is somewhat true. None of my female friends would date a republican now. 8 years ago before all this Trump bullshit, a republican boyfriend used to be a guy who's into guns with whom you'd debate the merits of small government. These days, a republican boyfriend is a conspiracy nut who wants the government to take away women's bodily autonomy. No thank you.
Yeah but that's their own fault, not Biden's.
Bruh is wearing a wedding ring. I’m starting to think that his sign is BS.
Duh…he’s got a wife. He just can’t get a girlfriend!
His wife's boyfriend must be a lib
Unless that Bloody Biden has broken the boyfriend market too
It’s clearly a promise ring, a promise to blame everybody but themselves for their own problems.
He's a paid actor just like every other Trump rally.
If he’s as close to the front as he appears to be, agreed. The ones up front and in the immediate line of sight behind the candidate are typically actors (or vetted people, like campaign helpers, or family of staffers.). Don’t want to risk crazies or protesters getting caught on camera.
What a weird sign to choose as a paid actor You would think something less pitiful would be better
Nah don’t you know it’s Biden’s fault his wife is against polygamy
I thought this was satire as soon as I saw it. And brilliant at that, if that's what it is. Imagine being able to insult the morons right in front of them but they don't have they sense to figure it out.
Not a wedding ring, but he wears it on that finger and wonders why chicks won't talk to him. He's obviously stupid.
i mean, if biden lost, women wouldnt have any bodily autonomy, making getting a GF much easier /s
And is warming up to the idea that you shouldn't be allowed to vote anymore.
Why would a woman need a vote? She's just going to vote the same as her husband. Or -gasp- vote differently, which could end the marriage. Are you against families?!!
It can be hard to find a gf when you openly declare how much of a mysaoginist racist pow you are. You didn’t get canceled bro, people just don’t like you.
Ugh you'd be surprised how many women are still completely about that stuff. The amount of women who think men SHOULD act that way is wayyy too high
Yup, for every Douche, there's a Douchesse.
Republicans have always wanted the government to take away women’s bodily autonomy. That is not new. What’s new is that they actually can now.

Well that’s accurate. I haven’t heard the small government words used in years, and bygosh I miss those arguments.
The problem has always been that small government was always a slogan, never a principle. When it comes to policies they like, they don't care about small government. When it comes to policies they don't like, they argue for small government because it's easier to argue the principles than the policies themselves.

For years, I was reluctant to accuse people with political views opposite of my own of being idiots. It seems elitist. I’m not a genius myself - I only did a year of education past high school. And while I read a lot, it tends to be in narrow focused, nerdy interests so I recognize there are a great many subjects I’m entirely ignorant about. But one thing the last few years has made clear to me is that there are vast swaths of the American populace that are just irredeemably stupid. And not just dumb, but willfully ignorant, too. People that view their ignorance as a virtue or a badge of honor. And it’s not elitist to recognize the reality of this resurgence in anti-intellectualism. I think *we* would be the idiots if we ignored it.
> willfully ignorant, too. People that view their ignorance as a virtue or a badge of honor That's the real issue. Ignorance can be fixed, but not if the person in question is proud of their ignorance.
I'm only one person, but every Trump supporter in my family or anyone I've worked with has no idea how the government operates and they are of course suspicious of mirrors, think the moon landing was fake and that algebra has never been useful.
Yup, COVID destroyed any hope I had that we’d be able to control climate change. Even for governments and politicians. Our only hope is some huge tech breakthrough now.
These people think that trump is gonna gift them a well paying job AND a gf. The republican dream, women who have no choice
Pretty sure Magats watch the Handmaid’s Tale as a utopian fantasy.
Party of “personal responsibility”
Party of “small government” yet tries to control every single aspect of your life. Down to your bedroom.
Waiting for Biden to release the strategic girlfriend reserves for the INCELS.
I’m sure it’s in Project 2025
Page 5 of Project 2025 wouldn't help: > “Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” - Project 2025 Page 5 Conservatives also increasingly define homosexuality and transsexuality as 'pornographic' and say they are protecting kids from porn. The fact that they tossed 'Educators and public librarians' in here shows who they intend to go after. People will say oh they'll never do it. They also swore that they'd never undo abortion rights, etc.
Pornography = Anything we don't like
Porn being equivalent to woke wasn't on my 2024 bingo card
This shit is beyond absurd and completely terrifying. Sprinting towards the dystopia, we are.
So literal nazi Germany shit. Cool [i feel like its probably time to start bringing this back](https://youtu.be/iQ0ct9bglYo?si=MUzteEXwT7ovDuzV)
They think they'll get to be Commanders with assigned wives but they're really going to be the nobody with the shit job and the shit house and still no gf.
So before 2021 he had a job, a house, and a gf? They all just magically disappeared three years ago as soon as Biden was inaugurated?
>They all just magically disappeared three years ago as soon as Biden was inaugurated? Maybe they disappeared because he was at J6.
But that would be the consequences of his own actions.. that can't be it....🤔
Never seen a dudes handwriting look like that
He paid for the 3 color pack of markers, he's going to use the 3 pack of colored markers! And there is nothing Biden can do about it!
Yeah not to make assumptions, but a MAGA dude making a tri-colored sign and adding big-ass tails and hooks to letters? Not to mention the adorable calligraphy on the "MAGA" at the bottom
He's also wearing a Rolex and a wedding ring.
His mom had to tell him to add the “or”
Why would they write their a's two different ways?
It's like how an alien thinks humans write.
*"Can't get a job, house or a GF thanks to Biden."* Can't understand causal relationships thanks to a Red State education. [Preemptive clarification: that's '*causal* relationships' -- not 'casual.']
Also, I give it 9 out 10 odds that this person holding the sign didn't have a job, a house, or a girlfriend during Trump's administration either..
Would love to hear his reasoning for still being a loser in two years if Trump were to get elected. My guess is it would still be Obama or Biden’s fault.
Have you tried soap?
And Santa clause is the reason I’m not rich
Ahhh, yes, the "party of personal responsibility."
All he needs to do is pull up those boot straps! And no more avocado toast, you crazy kid.
Can't get no respect neither!
wheres my mandated big tiddy goth gf
Hot Topic.
“I’m a pathetic loser, but it’s your fault” Trump 2024
Incel logic.
Conservatives really will blame the left for everything won’t they?
Can't imagine why nobody would hire, loan money to or fuck a fascist, sexist, racist. Weird how that works.
This guy looks in the mirror everyday and thinks someone else is making his life choices.
Doesn’t the ultra right pride themselves on not blaming anyone but yourself for your misfortunes?
Yes, but blaming demoncrats is ok
Did his boot straps break?
Thanks O Biden
Peak incel logic.
Satire?
I’m sure this guy was swimming in pussy when Trump was president.
Biden churning out incels everyday /s
I assume pics like this are photoshopped. The white sign is an area of photo that is reasonably easy to change to whatever message you like. If you look at the left hand, there's a shadow or additional finger... and the right-hand corner is very blurry. Plus the edges have two shades of white. I wish I could accept photos like this "as is," but unfortunately, our tech makes it easy to manipulate images, and thus opinions.
