Ode to Sean Hannity

Aping urbanity

Oozing with vanity

Plump as a manatee

Faking humanity

Journalistic calamity

Intellectual inanity

Fox Noise insanity

You’re a profanity

Anybody that has to cheat to win is a sucker....KICKED DOGS HOLLER!!!

Interesting how every time Black political influence grows, suddenly we’re talking about:

“redistricting” “gerrymandering” limiting districts weakening voting protections

But yeah… totally no fear there, right?

The irony is almost impressive: “If your votes don’t matter, we need to redraw the map to stop them from mattering.” If you can win fairly with ideas and policies, why does the map always need to be redesigned when certain communities gain political power?

That’s the part people keep noticing.

And when people bring up the history — from Jim Crow laws to the weakening of parts of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 — somehow the response is always: “Stop talking about it.”

Funny how history only becomes “irrelevant” when it starts connecting to the present. People aren’t imagining patterns. They’re watching them happen in real time.

The Trump administration has abruptly ended a Veterans Affairs home loan safety net, causing thousands of veterans to lose their homes or pay a higher mortgage rate: "It hurts paying $3,200 a month."

One of these days, maybe MAGA Republicans will start voting on what their candidates do and quit basing their votes on culture wars and wedge issues. Or is having Brown and Black people hunted down in the streets while their White allies are shot dead for defending their neighbors, friends, coworkers and the Constitution, worth you losing your insurance, your home, your work? Some of you have evenn lost your spouse, your family members and friendships because of the person you've become since you became a hate-filled, lying, cruel

Unfortunately, it appears the majority of veterans are a bunch of f*cking Fox-watchers. They live in a fact-free bubble. Even after the way Republicans treated veterans in his first term. I hope they're satisfied now.

All that hyped up macho bullshit. In reality trump is about as "manly" as a babyAll his performative KKK rallies, where you saw his style as a reaction against political correctness, you embraced his "militant masculinity" that resonated with other men. Now you see what a weakling he's always been, but the trick worked. What this country has lost due to trump is overwhelming at times.

It's the why for me. A con-man who used your fears and racist views to get your vote and like taking candy from a baby, you gave him your vote. So now you can only sit in your regret and watch the dumpster fire that is now America. America is now a bonified shit-hole country.

A felon with multiple baby mommies who are all immigrants. Takes us down further and further every day. MAGAs should start to recognize that trump's reactivity and harsh words are projections of his own internal issues. MAGA you owe your children, grandchildren and the world an apology. You F'd up big time. Trying to put and hold down others in ditches and forgot you'd get mud on you too.

Quit pretending you voted for this obvious fool, thinking he'd fix the economy, no more wars and that BS.

trump has an aura that makes people project their own feelings onto him. Isolationists saw in him a kindred spirit. So did the warmongers. The free-traders, and the protectionists, the Silicon Valley elite and the rural MAGA farmer. And in a schizophrenic way, they were both right and wrong. Because he had no ideology, and in his capricious mood he could do anything.

Now that trump is doing a lot of what he said he'd do, people are apparently upset about that. No, but seriously, everybody was like, "he didn't really mean it" about the crazy stuff they didn't like, and secretly hoping he'd do the crazy stuff they did like.

 The low information swing voters who did not want this only have themselves to blame because trump was talking about retribution, tariffs, and deporting millions during his entire campaign. Project 2025 was published online for anyone to read and had been discussed in the media for at least a year leading up to the election. There are no excuses for the majority of you MAGA voters. Ignorance is not an excuse.

This started as a question about the US but when you brought in Islam, it became a question about the world, which are very different.  Just in the United states, the decline of traditional Christian sects is likely going to lead to an american which is going to be a lot more left wing on social issues in particular.  Since conservatives are consistently willing to vote against their own best issues in order to support certain social policies (these are the so called wedge issues) which are usually based on religious doctrine like Abortion, Gay Rights, marriage ect).  So less religion will likely lead to those issues becoming less and less wedge issues.  Which will then weaken conservatism as a whole.
