I mean there could be no good people in society if there were no bad people ... the comparison is what makes you stand out, so you could also be glad that assholes exist

That image of text that breaks accessibility, searchability, & fault tolerance for no compelling reason while making the web less usable would have been far better as proper text.
To be fair something can be said about allowing formatting. For this the added value is little though, and it would've been better if an alt text was provided
Totally agree with you. The web was literally designed to share text easily and here we are sharing images of text in 2025. What’s the fault tolerance aspect though?
Yep, we live in a rape culture. Why else would a rapist president be promoting a rapist holiday?

Y’all are just taking it out of context. Like that Fox News host that said kill the homeless.
I didn’t hear or remember the first part. Was he talking about a specific woman with the breast implants? Wtf
friendly reminder that they ended Howard Dean's presidential campaign because he got a bit impassioned in one of his speeches and said "Hyah!" a bit awkwardly. that was too weird for a presidential candidate.
Remember when Christians called for Clinton to resign because he was unfit to be president because he got a BJ from an intern? Those same Christians voted for Trump.
All of it is about control, it has nothing to do with logic. If you understand this, fighting these idiots becomes much easier. You're not dealing with reasonable adults, you're dealing with a bunch of giant upset babies that don't want to get sent to their room.
Hypocrisy is dead under the republicans.
That's because they can't spell it
Absolutely true. However, it hardly looks any better for Democrats. Bill Clinton is barely any better than Trump, and yet he is still revered in party circles.
Also, Democratic party elites have yet to back Mamdani in NY which is defacto support for Cuomo who has the same kind of track record.
This isn't a Republican problem, it's a wealthy elites problem.
Drugs are bad, but let's not pretend that weed and meth are the same.
So, getting groped by a Republican is meth and getting groped by a Democrat is weed is this analogy? Please.
Or is it the other way around?
Republicans take hypocrisy to a whole new level.
[sniff] That's so beautiful, it should be embroidered on a pillow.
If I wanted to protest in the US, I would put that quote on tshirts and have everyone buy it. It would make for quite a tv presence...
Here's the original conversation if anyone is interested. Reading all the "that is just what men do" comments makes me wanna barf.
It's just locker room talk man. Perfectly acceptable.
/s
just locker room talk
for me that was maybe the most infuriating response to this whole thing. from women too, no less.
i've been in many locker rooms, with other dudes, and have never once talked about sexually assaulting women, joking or otherwise

Lunatics will have insane ideas, that's a given. It gets dangerous when lunatics get other people on board however.
Edit: also the amount of billionaire cocksucking many Americans do is genuinely creepy. No cap.
Why do dumb people think it's "all of the sudden"?
Supposably
Honestly, this should've been the end of it. No sane country would elect someone that said this as their president
A significant portion of American voters: "Heh, NICE! I wish I was famous."
That significant portion dont realize they are closer to 0 than they are a 100k-inair
Wow i just need to be famouse and i can sexually assult people? Man this really is the land of the free. You got my vote.
I hate to be the one to tell you, but the moral timber of the a lot of American voters is infested with selfishness and a lust for hurting others with impunity. And while good people stay home, the selfish always vote.
We are fundamentally broken. It doesn't matter. It's been a facade the whole time.
He is america. A racist misogynist bully.
I'm going to blame reconstruction failing. We never corrected the hypocrisy at our core and this is the result.
Who is "we"? You had some big part in this? Stop blaming yourself and please stop blaming me. There's not much need to self-identify with an oppressive system if you're not actively doing the oppressing. The nationalist "we" is garbage.

As well as when he made fun of the journalist who was in a wheelchair. I remember seeing that and I thought it was completely over for him, but no.
The amount of times it should be over for him, you could fill a library
Interesting website idea.

Seeing the conservative reaction to this was my first realization that we were truly fucked.
Initially: Thank god we can finally stop pretending Trump is a real candidate
Moments later: Oh, oh no
Ten years later: What what what oh shit oh fuck

I have repeated this story numerous times.
After that tape came out, a conservative woman went on The View TV show to defend Trump.
One of the panelists kept using the phrase 'pussy.'
The conservative woman asked her to please stop using that offensive term.

Yeah, when you guys chose to elect that guy, I knew it was over. I knew stuff was only gonna get worse and worse.
The U.S.A's Age of Grace and Class. /s
Trying to remember the sound of the recording because I'll never get over how "I moved on her like a bitch" does not read the way he intended
