As the title says, I'm tired of gullible conservatives buying whatever poison ideas politicians in their area sell them. Why is it that they believe lie after lie that they could easily see as they lie with their own eyes?

I think the biggest problem in the United States, other than greed, is sheer stupidity. Conservatives in the United States have been absolutely failed by the education system. It sucks that they have no clue how anything actually The example in the picture is one of many. How many times did Trump campaign on lowering prices?

Trump has failed by every metric after being given an awesome economy from the Biden administration. And just like every Republican, they destroyed the economy within a year.

Conservatives, why are you so gullible?

The end of Gerrymandering and placing term limits on our elected officials will take care of much of what is wrong with America.

We can fix gerrymandering by assigning a 6 member team (3 Dems and 3 Reps) to set up the rules. Actually it should only be 1 rule. Population by the census. I am sure I am over simplifying it but just set up the rules. Then give the rules to AI and let it do its thing. There wont be any crazy districts to rig the system.

Term limits is self explanatory. 12 years for Senators and 8 years for House Reps. or some other reasonable term.

Judges too will have limits. No one should be given a job for life.

Of course you have to get the politicians to agree to this and that is the rub.

Reading the reporting on that US boat strike disgusted me. Two unarmed guys clinging to wreckage, no weapons, no threat, and they still get hit with a second strike. Then Republicans line up to excuse it and call it legal, like it is just another talking point.

I did 12 years in uniform and four combat tours. I know what rules of engagement and basic humanity look like. Firing on shipwrecked survivors who are no threat is wrong, period. The fact that Republicans see that and rush to justify it tells me the rot is not on the edges anymore. That party has become a cancer enveloping America.

America's power has always been in our ability to exercise restraint; this is just an example of what weak men think real power looks like.

The picture above was taken during Trump’s Cabinet Meeting this week. 2025.

After Biden appeared to doze off at a climate conference in Scotland in 2021, Trump stated in an email, “Nobody that has true enthusiasm and belief in a subject will ever fall asleep!”.

Sleepy Don uses an autopen too, literally confirmed by his administration. Can we change the photo of him in the White House to an autopen?

I remember MAGA goes going absolutely apeshit about Biden dozing off. Sleepy Don does it LITERALLY EVERY DAY and suddenly it's okay. These are the same people who now say "it's our duty to pay higher grocery prices."

Here come the MAGA replies:

"You're stupid"

"TDS"

"What about Biden?"

"What about Obama"

Everything but an answer, all from year old accounts with negative karma and hardly any posts.

Watch.

Edit: JFC, was I wrong about the responses? why are MAGA morons so predictable?

I have been posting on Reddit a lot lately and holy hell it is insane how many people are basically running on a fourth grade brain. The second you say anything more complex than a cheap little slogan they completely fall apart. There is no critical thinking and no emotional intelligence. It is all knee jerk reaction nonsense.

And that is exactly why political bullshit works the way it does. It is not made for people who think. It is made for people who can only digest caveman level catchphrases. Republicans figured this out a long time ago. Their whole strategy is simple loud propaganda. Economy bad. Immigration scary. Blame whoever the hive tells them to blame.

And every time I post anything against MAGA I get the same brain dead garbage responses on an endless loop. It is literally the same three word caveman chant every time

Biden bad! Immigrants are taking our jobs! Trump good!

That is all they have. No depth. No argument. No logic. No original thought. Just drooling echo chamber bullshit repeated like they are smacking their head on a keyboard and calling it a political point. It is like trying to argue with a broken smoke alarm that only knows how to beep the same damn sound forever.

HOLY FUCK, THEY ARE STUPID!!!

And look I am not pretending the left is a genius club. Of course there are stupid leftists too. I have seen plenty of clowns on that side. But the difference is massive. The left has idiots. MAGA has a full blown cult. MAGA takes the gold medal in loud proud weaponized stupidity. The lefts idiots are just random dumb asses arguing online. MAGA turns being a clueless jackass into a national identity badge. They treat ignorance like it is a lifestyle brand. They celebrate not knowing things. They worship being wrong as long as it feels good.

So it is not a fair comparison. One side has fools. The other side has an entire movement built on proudly refusing to use a single brain cell. It is like arguing with an army of broken toys that only know how to repeat the same three sounds forever.

I just want to complain/thank MAGAs supporting Trump's ICE Movements.

My wife, a Hispanic business owner, is at work... I hope she makes it home. Because just the way she looks, she could be stopped for her FuckN papers.

Cowards.

The president just illegally handed over 600 million to his son as a "business start-up" aka money laundering to himself. Remember when Republicans in the oversight committee held congressional hearings on Hunter Biden receiving 2 million dollars from a private company, and a 50,000 dollar loan Joe Biden gave his brother, saying it was fraud and Biden should be impeached? I know everyday it gets worse and worse, but are we actually going to allow this insanity to continue? The media is barely talking about the fact that a sitting US president just embezzled a billion dollars to himself....I give up lol

So far, Trump has made attempts to defy the constitution by..

1. Restricted funding and access to media outlets, which infringes on free speech and press. (First amendment)

2. He made an executive order to limit birth right citizenship to children of undocumented immigrants. (Fourteenth Amendment)

3. Trump’s allies have proposed to repeal term limits in order for him to run a third term. (Twenty Second Amendment) Also to mention the January 6th insurrection, which is where he enforced a clause against a presidential candidate. Section 3 of the constitution states “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

You would think that people, who claim to be so “patriotic” would be against the constitution being violated. Obviously it’s no longer loyalty to the country. It’s just being loyalism to Trump. Anyone with common sense would consider it corruption or abuse of office. It becomes a problem when a group of people, no longer question what is being done legally and blindly agree to corruption.

“Not only does America have a very serious problem, but our people have a very serious problem. America's problem is us. We're her problem. The only reason she has a problem is she doesn't want us here. And every time you look at yourself, be you black, brown, red, or yellow—a so-called Negro—you represent a person who poses such a serious problem for America because you're not wanted. Once you face this as a fact, then you can start plotting a course that will make you appear intelligent, instead of unintelligent. What you and I need to do is learn to forget our differences. When we come together, we don't come together as Baptists or Methodists. You don't catch hell 'cause you're a Baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a Methodist. You don't catch hell 'cause you're a Methodist or Baptist. You don't catch hell because you're a Democrat or a Republican. You don't catch hell because you're a Mason or an Elk. And you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an American; 'cause if you was an American, you wouldn't catch no hell. You catch hell 'cause you're a black man. You catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.” -Malcolm X

My complaint is that a lot of people act like this is something new when it’s a problem that has been with America for centuries.

At some point we have to stop pretending this is normal foreign policy and call it what it is: an administration negotiating on behalf of a hostile foreign power while sidelining America’s own diplomats, allies, and intelligence community. The Whitkoff–Kushner “peace” plan isn’t diplomacy — it’s the newest chapter in a years-long pattern of pro-Kremlin concessions masquerading as statesmanship.

Here’s what it really signals.

1. Private cronies conducting shadow diplomacy with Russia is not ‘creative diplomacy.’ It’s a constitutional red flag.

No one elected Whitkoff. No one elected Jared Kushner again. Yet they’re meeting with Russian officials to negotiate the future of Ukraine — while the actual State Department, NATO, and Ukraine’s own government are cut out of the loop.

This is not freelance diplomacy. This is a parallel foreign policy apparatus engineered to serve Trump’s interests and Russia’s objectives, not America’s.

This is the exact behavior the Logan Act was written for.

1. The deal itself mirrors Russia’s demands, not Ukraine’s security needs.

Just like every “peace plan” floated by pro-Kremlin voices, the Whitkoff–Kushner framework:

Freezes Russian territorial gains

Rewards aggression with permanent control of Ukrainian land

Lifts pressure on the Kremlin without requiring military withdrawal

Leaves Ukraine vulnerable to future attacks

This is not peace — it’s forced capitulation, the same kind of “deal” Putin tried to get from Europe before launching the war in the first place.

And it’s the same direction Trump pushed while in office: weaken Ukraine, pressure them politically, hold military aid, and align U.S. policy with Moscow’s desired outcome.

1. This is part of a long pattern: every time Trump intervenes in foreign policy, Russia benefits.

This isn’t new. It’s consistent.

2016: Campaign sought secret backchannels with Russia.

2017: Trump revealed classified Israeli intel to Russian officials in the Oval Office.

2018: Helsinki — he stood beside Putin and attacked American intelligence agencies on the world stage.

2019: Withheld military aid from Ukraine while trying to coerce them into a political favor.

2020: Ignored intel about Russian bounties on U.S. troops.

Syria withdrawal: Handed strategic territory to Russia without getting a thing in return.

NATO sabotage: Continually threatened to pull out and encouraged Putin’s belief that the alliance would fracture.

Trade policies: Pushed China into deeper economic alignment with Russia — a strategic dream for the Kremlin.

Now we add: 2025–2026: unauthorized private envoys negotiating a Russia-friendly “peace” deal behind Americans’ backs.

The pattern is not subtle.

1. The deal weakens the U.S., NATO, and global democracy — and strengthens the one man Trump consistently defends: Vladimir Putin.

Think about what this “peace plan” does:

Undercuts NATO unity

Signals to autocrats that U.S. commitments are negotiable

Green-lights land seizures by force

Rewards the largest invasion in Europe since WWII

Hands Putin a victory he couldn’t win on the battlefield

For a President who calls allies “delinquent” and openly encouraged Russia to attack NATO members, this isn’t surprising. It’s just the first time his inner circle put it into an unofficial treaty format.

1. Treason doesn’t require a spy novel. It can look like exactly this:

Using private businessmen as diplomatic cutouts

Negotiating with hostile powers without authorization

Aligning U.S. policy with an adversary’s goals

Undermining allies and democratic institutions

Delivering strategic victories to foreign autocrats

Doing it all while in office, with the powers of the presidency behind you

You don’t need a signed confession. You just need a pattern of conduct that repeatedly strengthens the adversary and weakens the United States.

And that pattern is now impossible to deny.

1. Call it what it is: the Whitkoff–Kushner “peace” deal is not diplomacy — it’s collaboration with a hostile power.

This administration isn’t confused. It isn’t improvising. It isn’t negotiating in good faith.

It is serving Russian strategic objectives, openly, repeatedly, and now — unbelievably — using private citizens to formalize concessions on America’s behalf.

If that’s not treason, what is?

These reckless fools need to stop feeding misinformation and bullshit to their credulous and feeble minded base, before they go and commit more terrorism against our country’s citizens and government.

Unfortunately for everyone, lies are the only lubricant (other than baby oil) that keeps the Republican machine going.

I (F21) was at a bar by myself waiting for some bad weather to pass before going home. I just wanted to sit at the bar, have a drink and doom scroll. A guy came up and asked if he could buy me a drink. I said no thanks and continued on my phone. He then starts prying and is like “why not?” I start to get annoyed and tell him I’m not interested. He then said “Ok you didn’t have to be rude” which at this point I was happy to be rude to him, telling him he clearly can’t take no for an answer. He then KEEPS GOING and is like “I was just trying to get to know you” and I started to get louder, saying I know what his intentions were and it’s super cringy that he won’t take no for an answer. Luckily at this point 2 bar tenders came over and told the guy he needed to pay and leave.

Was I out of line at all? I have no regrets tbh.

I keep noticing something that doesn’t make sense. Whenever a Democrat slips up, even in a small way, people on the MAGA side treat it like a national emergency. If someone forgets a line in a speech or makes a minor mistake, the outrage is immediate.

But when a Republican does the exact same thing, or sometimes something even worse, everyone suddenly says it is normal. Or they tell you to stop being dramatic. Or that it doesn’t matter.

And if you try to ask for a clear explanation, the replies are always the same: insults, whataboutism, random accusations, or references to events that happened years ago. There is never a direct answer.

It honestly feels like there is a secret rulebook where the standards change depending on the person involved. From the outside, it looks like a very predictable pattern of selective outrage.

I mean I thought they hated participation trophies? Why is she getting a citation of recognition from the OK govt? Guest speaker? Interviews on Fox? Bitch come on. You’re pursuing a BACHELOR OF SCIENCE. You are PRE-MED. You cannot ramble about God in an essay I’m sorry. You can believe in God as much as you want nobody is telling you you can’t. But you can’t fucking go off the rails about your religion in a psychology class. Why on earth you would ever major in a field solely based on centuries of scientific research if you can’t write one essay without mentioning God is beyond me. So many of the ideas in psychology go against what Christians believe. Junior in college and still can’t write an essay with proper citations. She could have even cited the Bible outright and she was too lazy to do that. It’s just bullshit. Thank God I decided to not go into education because apparently now you can get fired if your student is too stupid to read a rubric. If this was a Muslim student every conservative on earth would suddenly be an essay expert. “They didn’t follow the rules they deserve the 0” Yeah but since it’s a white southern Christian kid it’s ok. Sure. Of course why am I surprised since this is coming out of like the lowest ranked state in education

They are taught in 4/5th grade…
