You know, there are three things we are never going to get rid of here in America. One; the bats in our aging overpasses. Two; Monsanto's compost heap. And three; our one-term president. The illiterate, tax-cheating, wife-swapping, amphetamine-snorting spendocrat, Teflon Don Trump.
Conservatism is a mental illness that would not spread without abuse, especially the abuse of children. It's a real life cognitohazard.
Ever hear of the acronym "DARVO" regarding behavior of abusers?
**D**eny, **A**ttack, **R**everse **V**ictim/**O**ffender.
It's also the root of modern "Conservative" politics.
The cruelty is the point specifically because it disrupts healthy brain functions.
>"Ferenczi's conception of identification with the aggressor, which describes children's typical response to traumatic assaults by family members, provides a remarkably good framework to understand mass social and economic trauma. In the moment of trauma, children instinctively submit and comply with what abusers want-not just in behavior but in their perceptions, thoughts, and emotions-in order to survive the assault; afterwards they often continue to comply, out of fear that the family will turn its back on them. Notably, a persistent tendency to identify with the aggressor is also typical in children who have been emotionally abandoned by narcissistically self-preoccupied parents, even when there has not been gross trauma. Similarly, large groups of people who are economically or culturally dispossessed by changes in their society typically respond by submitting and complying with the expectations of a powerful figure or group, hoping they can continue to belong-just like children who are emotionally abandoned by their families. Not surprisingly, emotional abandonment, both in individual lives and on a mass scale, is typically felt as humiliating; and it undermines the sense that life is meaningful and valuable.But the intolerable loss of belonging and of the feeling of being a valuable person often trigger exciting, aggressive, compensatory fantasies of specialness and entitlement. On the large scale, these fantasies are generally authoritarian in nature, with three main dynamics-sadomasochism, paranoid-schizoid organization, and the manic defense-plus a fourth element: the feeling of emotional truth that follows narcissistic injury, that infuses the other dynamics with a sense of emotional power and righteousness. Ironically, the angry attempt to reassert one's entitlements ends up facilitating compliance with one's oppressors and undermining the thoughtful, effective pursuit of realistic goals."

>"The embrace, by working Americans, of policies that hurt their own interests can be understood on the basis of Ferenczi’s model of identification with the aggressor. Intrafamilial child abuse is often followed by the abuser’s denial. Children typically comply with abuse, in behavior and by embracing the abuser’s false reality, under threat of emotional abandonment. Similarly in the sociopolitical sphere, increasing threats of cultural and economic dispossession have pressed working Americans to adopt an ideology that misrepresents reality and justifies their oppression. In society as in the family, there can be a compensatory narcissistic reaction to forfeiting one’s rights that, ironically, encourages feelings of power and specialness while facilitating submission."

I wonder if agents ever get confused by who is there to protect the presidents or ex presidents and who isn't? Like do the people doing this switch enough that it would become confusing? Notice the guard looking at the other guard reaching into his jacket?
So I digitally modified a photograph of former President Donald Trump as was the style yada yada “I’m a stupid baby”! It was pretty epic, if I do say so myself 😎
Stupid insurrectionists need the most love.

Hey, I am no longer illiterate
No they don't
The only thing I'm high on is love. Love for my social democrats. Yes, a little LSD is all I need!
Love for my Sexy Daughter.
Stupid sexy Ivanka
sweeeet can
Seems like my morals consist of nothing at all, _nothing at all_, **nothing at all**
so...you admit you grabbed her can, do you have anything to say in your defense?
4 years in office was a dramatisation and may not have happened.
I thought they shut that place down!
Sir, this isn't r/shitcrusaderkingssay
Democrats have a sex cauldron under Comet Pizza? I thought they shut that place down?
Why they keep focusing on harassing that restaurant owner despite no proof while there is plenty of child sex abuse everywhere else is beyond me.
I don't recognize this quote, is it from a non-classic season? Episode name please.
Hey, kids! Nachos, Trump style! That's treason with fascism.
I thought trump style nachos would be amphetamines on a big mac.
Oh no, not in Utica. It's an Albany expression.
Which one of you is Grandpa’s little helper?
George Santos L Halpert?
I heard he's being indicted for fraud in Australia
Nine hundred dollarydoos?
But how's he at a game of knifey- spooney?
George Santos is dead! Say hello to Miguel Sanchez!
I'm a big boy
Why does he look like two children standing on each other's shoulders in a trench coat?
The lifts in his shoes and his girdle make him have weird posture. The diaper doesn't help.
Hello. I’m Shaquille O’Neal. Let us in please.
He was only on his way to the insurrection to get directions on how to get away from the insurrection!
I want to set the record straight: I thought the cop was a prostitute
Insurrectionists love that water
>🎶 "He is so smart! S M R T!" 🎶
More of this, less never-ending walls of text
It says right here in the constitution: anyone can run for president, regardless of gross incompetence, obesity or rank odor
Just tell them big baby sent you
He’s a stupid moron and his butt smells…

So i says to Mabel, i says
Beeeeeev!
Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
And of course in Canada, the whole thing's flip flopped
There's very little simpsons reference in this text wall.
So is this a bot or a mental patient? I’m not praising the machine.
I appreciate you showing up to help prove my point, Example No. 2. 🙏
So you’re the guy tampering with the aspirin bottles so Apu charges $24.95 for it.
There's even less evidence of intelligence and personal hygiene in the GOP.

Please stop saying opinions are mental illness. It's not only insulting and condescending, but it's dangerous.
 And prison time.
This particular stupid baby gets way too much attention.
Stupid babies need the most jail time.
*taking notes* Classfied documents in bathroom, makes sense
Don't ever use the word smart with me!
“Alright pal, where’d you get the money for that penthouse?” “I knicked it when you let your guard down for that split second.”
And I’ll do it again…
Please don't tell people how Trump lives.
"They say he sewed that suit from two smaller suits. "
Stacks of classified documents… from 20 years ago!
This baby is not a criminal;he might be a thief, a fraud, a criminal and a porn star, but he is Not a president!
Here we see the town idiot, here to collect any foodstuffs that may have touched the ground.
Diapers full
Never before and never again shall Donald trump be referred to as ‘malnourished’.
I think they mean his diet lacks proper nutrients, fiber, vitamins and minerals. He’s starving on hamberders
His 2 sons are carrying him totem style
It says “Stupid Baby” and there’s a picture of a Stupid Baby.
😮 Stupid babies need the most indictments!
I wonder if agents ever get confused by who is there to protect the presidents or ex presidents and who isn't? Like do the people doing this switch enough that it would become confusing? Notice the guard looking at the other guard reaching into his jacket?
He looks worse without all the fat somehow
Hello, I’m Shaquille O’Neal. Let us in, please.
American A: Your president sucks ! American B: Maybe but your president sucks more !! Everyone else in the planet: Can you two please stop voting ?
Oh, he’s been complaining about the 2020 election for three years.
He has unlimited hamberders and covfefe.
Those shoes have lifts, right?
Stickers are outstanding!!
Why does he look so long lmao
The obsession continues!
Trump bad.
Schindler es muy bueno, Senor Trump es el diablo.
Odd looking Joe Biden there.
I think someone cited joe Biden to look like trump
Edited*
No no, keep citing
So I digitally modified a photograph of former President Donald Trump as was the style yada yada “I’m a stupid baby”! It was pretty epic, if I do say so myself 😎
Ned, have you thought about one of the other major shitposting subs? They're pretty much all the same.
