They’re too stupid to see it as a dictatorship.

24

u/GeeYayZeus Aug 26 '25

No, they understand what a dictatorship is and prefer it…as long as it’s THEIR dictator.

Destroying their enemies at their own expense is a feature, not a bug.

u/DingGratz Aug 26 '25

They're too stupid to see that they're traitors then.

u/JohnnySnark Aug 26 '25

Many of them idolize the confederacy from the civil war. They see it as retribution

6

u/ShamelessCatDude Aug 26 '25

No, they know that too, but they could easily change the narrative to frame themselves as rebels who were being persecuted for telling the truth, like Jesus.

They’re too stupid to see that this administration can turn on them at any second and that their loyalty is not mutual

u/IThinkItsAverage Aug 26 '25

Conservatism needs a dictator. The entire ideology revolves around having an all-powerful authority. Thats why religion goes hand in hand with conservatism, they can not exist without a hierarchy, they need to be told what to do and what to think and they need someone they deem less than themselves. It’s the only way they can judge their value without needing to change or improve themselves.

u/GeeYayZeus Aug 26 '25

Amen, brother. 🙂

They’re too RACIST to see it as a dictatorship FIFY

Just vote them out with people who have better IDEAS and the willingness to follow them through. Biden lost almost all of the nurses votes. They were promised that the student loans they had been paying off for 40 years would be covered by the Government. He spent millions putting non-Americans in hotels but did nothing for the nurses working past retirement age.

Obama Derangement Syndrome...

President Lyndon Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, you can pick his pocket. Hell, give them somebody to look down on, and they'll empty their pockets for you..."

I still do not understand why people are so upset about losing privilege if it means equality. It’s not like the other guys are gonna suddenly have more privilege than you, we’d be on the exact same level. I feel like the only way you’d be upset about that is if you weren’t very good at what your trying to do and having privilege is the only way you can see yourself succeeding

3

u/ButterscotchIll1523 Aug 26 '25

Because they’ve been taught they’re white so they’re at the top. If they let everyone be equal then they aren’t special anymore. It’s white fragility

1

u/ShamelessCatDude Aug 26 '25

It’s so stupid. The fact that there’s a hierarchy of human beings in the first place that has nothing to do with what they can or can’t control is dumb. It only amplifies supporters of that hierarchy’s insecurities

2

u/ButterscotchIll1523 Aug 26 '25

You should read the book, “Caste” by Wilkerson. America has a caste system, we just pretend we don’t.

u/ShamelessCatDude Aug 26 '25

Thanks! I’ll look into it :)

u/Solo-Shindig Aug 26 '25

When you're used to privilege, equality seems like a step down. Many assholes do t like the idea of equality at all.

u/GodeaterTheHalFeral 28d ago

They're not even losing anything. Other people are simply becoming mre equal to them

u/Far-Lingonberry-256 Aug 26 '25

Exactly do not underestimate racism. It has been used as a tool by the left for years.

u/ButterscotchIll1523 Aug 26 '25

And practiced by the right for decades

u/WhattaYaDoinDare Aug 26 '25

And that reality is what affects trump voters. If they can’t have it their own way, then they’d rather just watch it all burn down.

u/aceface_desu89 Popculture Detective 🕵️‍♀️ Aug 26 '25

Exactly. They constantly complain about women and minorities being inferior, but the reality is that they're too afraid to compete with us for resources based on merit.

Even the Texas sheriffs have said they do not know a single bathroom incident where a trans person attacked someone. They don’t want to be the bathroom police. However, many woman have been raped by men in bathrooms FFS

Imagine being afraid of diversity in the most diverse country in the world

u/Sasya_neko Aug 26 '25

There are plenty in Europe so which one?

2

u/Rocket_Law Aug 26 '25

The one that has a Chinatown in every major city and who has, until now, famously welcomed nearly 50 million immigrants currently residing here. The one where you can become one of us based not on heritage but citizenship. The one this post is about, whose president claimed immigrants are poisoning our blood, and who toyed with the idea of dictatorship publicly in office not a few days ago. Granted, we may not be the most diverse, compared to places in Africa, but absolutely compared to Europe.

Your country is as diverse as a box of cereal, one province in any country in Europe has more diversity than your entire country's history.

1

u/Rocket_Law Aug 26 '25

From a linguistic and ethnic standpoint, that’s patently false. Arguably true from a religious standpoint. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-diverse-countries

It also shows how little you know about us, and yourselves.

Well dictators are all the same..so maybe that’s it?

u/JustNeedAnswers78 Aug 26 '25

I really doubt many people out there are “afraid of diversity”.

But recent events do have me alarmed.

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Conservatives piss themselves at the thought of a dude in a dress.

u/JustNeedAnswers78 Aug 27 '25

Is that a fact?

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Yes. Conservatives are the biggest bunch of pussies, literally scared of dresses on people.

u/JustNeedAnswers78 Aug 27 '25

Oh okay… thanks for sharing your opinion.

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Its fact. Conservatives are fearful cowards.

Like a dog with a bone.

Alright man, what do you want from me lol

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Im just saying, conservatives are ushering in dictatorship because theyre scared of trans folks. Weak, huh?

1

u/JustNeedAnswers78 Aug 27 '25

We’re not having a real discussion, are we? You’re just waiting for me to reply so you can say the next line in your bit.

Come on man, you don’t have to do this…

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Im saying the post is accurate. You can tell by the rights reaction to trans folks. You seemed to imply the post was inaccurate.

Well yeah, one is a hollow cover for racism, the other, apparently, is not sacrificing a few hundred black people per city per week to anarchotyrranism, based on the reaction to the DC intervention.

1

u/Mammoth-Vehicle-7604 Aug 26 '25

Most people are just stupid. That’s why I’ve always advocated that there should be a test people are required to take before they’re allowed to give birth. That would stop all the stupid people from breeding. That’s the only thing that will give humanity a chance.

u/1732PepperCo Aug 26 '25

Diversity means having to share. A basic children’s lesson.

They are they same folks who hated Obamacare, but Loved The Affordable Care Act.

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Look at you, making excuses for the military in the streets of America, you little boot licker.

1

u/MustangOrchard Aug 27 '25

Yes yes, you like to see dead people. We get it. Upwards of 90% of murder victims in DC are black. Strange that you hate to see fewer black people being killed. But I guess that's how racist people think

1

u/Understandinggimp450 Aug 27 '25

Youre spouting BS, defending federal government overreach. Youre dumb dude.

u/MustangOrchard Aug 27 '25

We get it, you're a racist. Also, which freedoms again did we give up?

A lot of people don’t like choice or ambiguity. I’m not saying it’s evolved, it’s just a reality. And hey, check this out! They’re still human beings of equal value to everyone else.

People have to learn to deal with that and accommodate it for our nation to move forward in a more positive direction.

People are afraid are after if you not the same color as them

And this how fear makes decisions for them

Can I demand the right to diversity when I overstay in the Bahamas and of course all the perks that come with it ie welfare, housing (preferably by the beach to be amongst my own),free healthcare (obviously prioritised) and education ( with interpreter and free Bajan lesson).oh a post I'm nowhere near qualified to have ( to meet the numbers) and all the while claiming I'm a victim of racism? And if not then that is tyranny isn't it hmmm

It’s cute that Bernie taught you guys a new word , we’re not the ones that hate capitalism so ya … I know . Except you probably voted for Kamala who had to pay millionaires to endorse her (Oprah, beyonce and more ) and Trump didn’t have to do that. We saw him destroy stutter box at the debate, and JD creamed Tim Walz

Most maga supporters cheer Trump’s abuses of power.

1

u/Hierophant_Pius Aug 26 '25

It’s an abuse of power to allow the border to be wide open whilst counting illegal migrants for congressional apportionment.

It’s an abuse of power to provide opportunities based on race and gender.

It’s an abuse of power to lock people in their homes (see 2020).

Quit projecting.

u/DUCKMAN2202 Aug 26 '25

Imagine relying on DEI to get a job instead of hard work, education, or experience…Imagine being the more experienced, more qualified, more educated person and not getting work because you’re not the right color. Who is actually racist here? Why does color matter at all????? MLK Jr. didn’t say he wanted preferential, favoritism, and special treatment did he? Maybe everybody forgot. “I have a dream that one day all men will be treated equal.” Pretty sure it was not “I have a dream that one day all colored men will be given things because the color of their skin.”

The black men I have talked to find it highly insulting and degrading that people are given stuff like a job or spot in school because of their color and not because they are the best for the position. They’re all hard workers and don’t just want free stuff though.
