"america" really has no self-awareness.

Imagine if the usa did invest on american people instead of imperialism and illegal wars. All countries are supposed to invest a bit on the army

I feel like the entire conservative movement has been failure after failure and the people trying to implement it know its a failure but need to keep throwing money at it in hopes it fixes its self rather than taking a good hard look at what it is actually doing.

I realize this explains Fred Trump and how we the current fucking idiot

Cognitive dissonance just murdered irony in cold blood

He's almost there! Just needs a little self reflection... Shit.

Republicans might be vampires with how little they reflect.

US politicians really do seem the type to have dropped out of kindergarten

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 hours ago

Looking around in company/institutions leaderships, it seems to be a common issue, that people with ego problems and being emotionally stuck in kindergarten level have been pushed to the top

As always, if you're really good at your job, you won't get promoted to management, because it would be a bad decision
So all those idiots, that kinda flunk it, are then thinking they are your boss, although they should be nothing more then a specialized secretary
But as their ego can't handle that, they're stuck in their boss role - and get pissed with every criticism

Yeah, I'm kinda pissed at the moment, because of such issues...maybe I'm a bit biased
But I'm still very sure this is true

Irony truly is dead

I wish he had something funny about him to make fun of, instead of something sad like his alcoholism or profound incompetence. Kirk had a tiny face, trump has a laundry list, fetterman lost his sense of right and wrong after stroking it. Generic evil is so boring. Suck weirder, Rubio.

He has the deadest eyes out of all of them.

He struggles drinking water.

His height. He is no short king, and frequently sinks into couches. No, not like Couchfucker Vance.

Yah... Imagine!

Hot rickety, sweet Jesus!
