    Why do republicans insist on waking up from sleep every morning?

    Waking up is super woke.

    Real TRUE PATRIOTS go to sleep once, and stay that way forever, to own the libz.

      That’s how Pete’s 2016 campaign presented it phonetically when people were still unsure how to pronounce his name. Not much of an insult but nobody has ever accused this administration of being clever.

    Every time you see the term “DEI” or “woke” or whatever, just imagine it’s some loser fucking dude from the mid 2000s in a sweat stained Tapout t-shirt and substitute the terms with “gay and removeded” and it’ll make just as much sense, if not more. That’s ultimately the essence of those terms anyways. The only difference is that with the term “DEI” they get to posture as a serious person with an actual point that deserves to be taken seriously. Bike lanes are gay. Caring about the environment is gay. Anti-hazing policy in the military is removeded. Etc. Etc.

      Its like all the stupid “Lets Go Brandon” nonsense because they are all too much of a bunch of pussies to just say “Fuck Joe Biden.”

      Guess what, Fuck Trump.

      See, its easy, I don’t need some clever bull shit because I am not some softy ass coward.

      If you happen to run into anyone in your social circles who choose to use those term. Ask them to actually define them, yet to meet a single one who can.

      Outrage tourist grifter “Ranting for Vengeance” is trying his best to bring back “gay and removeded”.

      It has been unseasonably cool where I live. We’re talking low 80’s, 26-ish celcius.

      Weather is very hard to conceptualize for us monkeys. It’s very easy for someone who never needs to stay in one place to have a completely incorrect perception of what weather or climate actually is. People who do stay in one place seem to struggle with it, that should tell you what you need to know.

        Ok, but I’m assuming you’re not a total idiot who extrapolates from local weather?

          No, but my Trump voting office trog sure does. Never misses a chance to point out oddly cool weather, as if it somehow means climate change is not real.

        Is it also very hard for monkeys to look at graphs? They don’t seem to have trouble with it when it’s in service of screwing us out of money

          When you’re asking them to look at graphs or the obscene wealth they can gain from screwing others over — yes, yes it is very hard.

          I’m not justifying or excusing their behavior. I’m just explaining it.

            the obscene wealth they can gain from screwing others over

            People are not becoming obscenely wealthy from hating on bike lanes. They’re just brainwashed morons.

              People are absolutely becoming wealthy off of climate change denial, driving hate towards bike lanes is absolutely a part of that.

    When words like “woke” “DEI” or any of the other ones adjacent to them are use to express displeasure of any kind I immediately lose interest in what they have to say.

    Muchlike i do with people that blame [insert thing they don’t like] on [insert political ideology they don’t agree with] instead of coming up with, you know, facts and reasoning or something.
