Republicans and the Art of Getting Butthurt
Read Time:3 Minute, 50 Second
I got kicked off of Facebook this morning. It stemmed from a friend of mine who posted a question in regard to how white supremacists can use the bible to justify their hate when there are no white people in the bible, and I responded by saying:
“Wait a minute—you mean Jesus wasn’t white?”
My comment was liked by a Trump supporter, who, of course, thought I was being serious. When I pointed out how sarcasm was lost on brain-dead republicans, the Trump supporter started in on me, saying how I was nothing and that my opinion didn’t matter.
At which point I wrote, “Well, if my comment was so worthless, then why did you like it, you bloody idiot?” He didn’t respond to me, he just went crying home to Mommy and reported me to Facebook, who banned me for the next three days. I don’t know about you, but I am getting sick and tired of getting reported by these Republican pussies who can’t take a joke or can’t handle someone who calls them out on their bullshit.
It doesn’t help matters that Facebook and Twitter aren’t willing to do shit about it. Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg seem only too willing to bend over and let these fools flourish and say whatever they want with impunity. I’m not saying we should take away their first amendment rights, I’m just saying we should be on an equal playing field.
I know I’m not the only liberal who’s been threatened online. So far, I’ve been told I’m going to Hell, threatened to be shot, and told I better stop otherwise my wife would be raped. But did I go running to the ‘adults’ in the room and cry foul? No, I handled it myself. That’s just the way I roll.
But Republicans are always going around playing the victim as if they are regularly persecuted. God knows Trump does it every minute of every Goddamned day. Really? White people are the victims? Tell that to the 10 million Jews who were slaughtered in World War II, the blacks who were jacked away from their villiages in Africa and sold into slavery, the Japanese who were interred for no reason other than that they were Japanese, the demonizing of Muslims after 9/11, or the Mexicans that are currently being penned up like animals. Just TRY to compare your so-called oppression with all that. You can’t.
Just the other day, some mouth-breathing dipshit representative from Texas named Briscoe Cain threatened presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke just because he didn’t like O’Rourke saying that he wanted a mandatory buyback of all AR-15 and AK-47 assault rifles. When he was reported to Twitter and the FBI for making a death threat, Cain was the one who got all offended. He said Beto was acting like a child. Why? Just because he reported a violent psychopath?
I know that nine times out of ten, most of these idiots are just puffing out their chests and looking to piss on what they perceive as their territory, but they shouldn’t be allowed to get away with stuff we can’t, not even if they’re the president. Trump likes to think that he projects ‘strength’, but the reality is he’s more sensitive than a sore tooth.
Unfortunately, most Republicans are like that which is why it’s pointless to argue with them—they all talk loudly to intimidate, and the moment you say anything to refute them, they start acting as though you raped their puppy. It’s ridiculous.
But it just goes to prove how dumb they are. Anyone who listens to their line of garbage for more than five minutes can tell when they’re full of shit. If you’re one of the independents who sits there and thinks, “Hmm… maybe they have a point,” then I pity you, because all you’re doing is listening to the blackness in your own soul.
Defending the indefensible is easy when all you do is attack. People aren’t listening to your words, they’re just watching your actions. It’s not a projection of strength; it’s just an illusion. The Democrats need to start learning to press their advantage at moments like that, because when the Republicans act like they’ve been personally attacked, it usually means they have no leg to stand on in the first place.

Most of my fears are actually beginning to fruition. We are heading down a path that can lead to the same results that was found in Germany when the Nazi Party slowly, but surely rose to power. Like Hitler, Donald Trump rose to his current power position through lies and deception and having a few well placed people that is willing to destroy the status quo of pre 2016. Trump who has always wanted to dominate the world if all possible. Before Trump got into power Republicans simply did not believe it was possible, but Trump has shown them that all they had to do was simply ignore the laws of the land and The Constitution. Once he began to achieve things as president it was then that he found people people to side with to take over the government and move forward with conquering America. A quick check of history in the growth shows that the Schutzstaffel, was begun with only 8 people, (according to Wikipedia), and eventually grew to a million in less than 25 years. These came to by the Nazi Party, and the rest is history. Like Hitler, Trump has always been a loud mouth jerk. Like Hitler, Trump surrounds himself with only zealot supporters. One surprising detail though is that Hitler served his country in the military.
Perhaps I may be naive but I see a lot of parallels between then and now but I never thought I would see our government as corrupt as it is now and leadership so weak that no one who would actually challenge this slow take over of our country.
Most facebook ‘content moderators’ are not even facebook employees. They are working for a contractor who has been hired by the Zuckman to do the dirty job. God only knows how those people are selected, vetted and trained if at all. It is quite possible or even feasible that its fairly easy to get employment with one of those contractors.

I always suspected this. Thanks for sharing Britta.
The more I hear of people getting kicked off of FB for insulting Trump or the Republicans, the more convinced I am that the Trumpers are infiltrating social media platforms. Complaints are reviewed by FB staff, and only a Trumper would consider what you said in any way offensive.
Being without a spine makes it hard to stand even if you have legs.
I’m not entirely certain what ‘white’ means any more either. The history of who is and who isn’t white is a very amusing story that I won’t go into, but as you know, nobody has a clue as to what Jesus of Nazareth looked like, dressed like, thought or did and we have less information in that regard than we do with most fictional characters. I might even say “Other” fictional characters. But there’s a bit more than humor involved in this “Jews aren’t white” movement (I’ve seen Jesus portrayed with dreadlocks looking like a Zulu) and I suspect some Russian creativity here. Certainly the Greeks and Romans are “in the Bible” among others like the Aryan Persians. And there’s the question of what “color” angels, holy spirits and the other “sons of God” mentioned in Genesis.
It’s just another attempt to use Western culture to destroy western Society. Qui bono?
