    What is insane to me is that I had to look at who wrote it to determine if it was a joke or if it could have been serious. It’s amazing how many batshit crazy things people say AND BELIEVE IN THEIR HEART. This could be a new game show:

    Serious or Satire!

    10 years ago no one would have ever thought this was anything but a joke but today… They would never run out of material! Think “Jewish Space Lasers” for example.

      They set the bar so high for dumb and insane shit to say that i feel like people stopped hearing it. Like fuck, the jewish space laser thing… Just how? In a real world someone would’ve escorted her out and be like: okay, we get it, pack your shit. But nothing. And years later, that lady is still doing it, and she still has her job.

        The laser thing, it’s just so out of this world! I actually dug deeper and and it’s somehow connected to volcanoes. They don’t actually exist, but those giant hills are actually from excavating caves for building Deep Underground Military Bases (D.U.M.B.S, you can’t make that shit up). The lasers then shoot into the hills so then you have magma and shit.

          This reads like somewhere out there, some random teenager got baked as fuck playing Missile Command and decided to troll that one asshole MAGA uncle nobody wanted to invite to Thanksgiving and things just spiraled completely out of hand.

        He probably broke a few laws right there. Maybe another president would have been held accountable for faking a wewther report and causing panic, but it was just Wednesday.

        How do I find him on mastadon? And why in the mastadon app, when I enter the search box, my keyboard autocomplete doesn’t work, like it’s a password field?

              That’s weird. Are you using the official app? If I search for a fake name, the message I get is “Could not find anything for these search terms”

      Sorry… you don’t know who George Takei is? Really?

      As for why he’s super political, being put in a concentration camp will do that to you.

              Because of the dismissive way they posted about it and because they are complaining about someone being political in a political memes community.
