    I’ve gotten death threats for posting Kirk’s own words about acceptable gun deaths and dismissing empathy, sometimes in the same breath as calling out the “violent left”, while not knowing the ideology of the shooter. They’re fucking insane.

      Lol I’ve just calmly expressed how easily the red hat would make it to dome them at a distance, not one has considered continuing the conversation past that, like yes those are my ideas actually.

    Given the skin tone and sunglasses, one could put that picture of the suspect they’re looking for in there and see if anyone notices

    Why do they always have terrible profile photos. Sunglasses and the same dumb expression.

      Because they’re in the same cult.

      Not only is conformity encouraged, but deviating from their group norms even slightly is met with suspicion if not outright fear and hostility.

      Plus that’s what people who are emotionally stuck in adolescence and/or the 80s think looks cool.

        They’re talking about a collection of animals, not the plural form of the word (which chunguses is). Like a group of crows is called a murder.

      I think the plural should be chungi, and the collective noun either a clowder, or a murder.

        Why would you besmirch cats and crows that way? The collective noun should be something vaguely derogatory, like “heap” or “clump.”

          Not so much to do with the current designation of clowder, but rather I was inspired by the origin of the word.

          A variation, recorded since 1801, of clutter, itself from clot, from Old English clott (“round mass, lump”), from Proto-Germanic *klūtaz (hence cognate with Dutch kloot (“ball, testicle”), Danish klods (“a block, lump”) and German Klotz (“lump, block”)).

          As for murder, I think labelling them with their intent is simply a good idea.

          I’ve nothing against crows or cats, but the person who coined their respective collective nouns probably did.

    Why do so many conservatives do sunglasses? Like, isn’t their whole schtick that they’re individuals and mavericks? Fucking copy paste.

    I’m a middle-aged white guy, salt-and-pepper-goatee. Let them think I am MAGA. When I speak out on them in public, they have been surprised. And now I have to go armed, non-stop, and it sucks.
