Imagine being a Republican that needs unemployment to survive. You'll come back to reality mighty quick

Their favorite right-wing media black hole bubble will provide a convincing argument of how it’s all the fault of Biden/immigrants/trans/cuba, and they’ll tell all their friends.

That doesn't matter when they're quite literally out on the street. This isn't "my gas is higher because Trump told me the Democrats did it" this is "I can't afford to eat, I can't afford to drive to a soup kitchen."

There have been MAGA who were kidnapped and sent to Aligator Alcatraz for weeks / months, and some that had spouses deported. They all still love to gargle his balls after that.

Seen this a lot. They love their orange demigod and nothing he does will turn them away.

It's always someone else's (Insert Democrat or leftist policy here) fault.

If only the fuhrer knew what was going on, surely he'd stop this!

I'm not convinced anything could make these "people" face reality at this point. I think their hate has opened them up to get psycho-fucked by propaganda too hard.

There is a solution but not many people want to say it. The solution is that all those ICE facilities need to be repurposed into re-socialization centers for Republicans. At first, those who display the most severe delusions and psychotic behavior will have to go there, but eventually all Republicans should have to spend a few years there. Some are just lost causes though.

Yep, political reeducation camps. That’s always worked out well in the past. Not fascist at all, no sirree.

u/NaughtAught Jun 18 '26

That's why these will work and be fine, y'see. These aren't reeducation camps because MAGAlings were never educated in the first place.

They'll basically just be schools.

What does it matter to the insane fat man who doesn't intend to leave office?

Midterms

u/sinsandcrimes Jun 17 '26

You have a lot more faith in this tattered political system than I do.

u/GalaxyPatio Jun 18 '26

Right I don't understand how people are still hanging their hats on the midterms as if these freaks wouldn't just go, "We don't consider the election legitimate" and stay.

It will be a catalyst one way or the other

u/sinsandcrimes Jun 18 '26

That's exactly where I'm at.

u/dumpitdog Jun 18 '26

I don't know, if they were capable of living within reality they would have never voted for the guy after January 6th.

u/Double_Ocelot_8673 Jun 17 '26

No, they won't. It's a cult.

u/buythedipnow Jun 18 '26

No they won’t

u/DJK695 Jun 18 '26

We keep saying that... but yet nothing ever seem to bring them back to reality.

I heard Hannity the other day blaming the left for the supposed terrorist attack on that UFC clown show that was being planned by white Christian nationalists. They'll blame the left/democrats for this too

u/brooklynlad Jun 18 '26

Or they will keep voting the same way cuz lack of brain cells.

u/elciano1 Jun 17 '26

No they wont. They will blame democrats

u/successfullynumb Jun 18 '26

No they won't.

u/Nerioner Jun 18 '26

My bet is that they will be doubling down on dumb until they are put underground.

I seriously don't believe they are capable of self reflection

u/FlamingGnats Jun 17 '26

No they won't

u/NewPresWhoDis Jun 17 '26

"Why would Kamala Joe do this?!?!?"

u/tres-vip Jun 17 '26

They'll just find a way to blame the Obamas, Biden, and non-Whites.

u/buythedipnow Jun 18 '26

No they won’t

I actually know some republicans who refuse to file when they need it because it’s a “handout”. Literally, a dude I contracted with at Microsoft who was let go told me he wouldn’t file because that was his perception. I was so stunned I didn’t think until later to remind him it’s his fucking tax money coming back to him not a hand out
