  • Oh god dammit. I don’t even know what story this satire is referencing at this point.

    Hey assholes who don’t think we need gun reform! Listen up! You need a reason why we need gun reform? How about the fact that gun shootings are so common now, that I didn’t even hear about this one. Now public shootings need a twist. Why? Because some nutjob shoots someone at a movie theater in 2014? It’s news. The stations can make money off people paying attention.

    But in 2025? Nobody cares. Public shooting? Which one? OH! The one with the trans nazi? Ok, NOW it has a unique hook that differenciates it from all the OTHER public shootings.

    See? Thats where we are. Thats why we need gun legislation. Seems to me that everybody across all political spectrums can agree that pedophiles being around children is bad. And I agree. Any tools they might have to abuse kids should be taken away. Everyone can agree.

    So why can’t we agree to take the tools away needed to make school shootings a common reality. I was alive when columbine happened. For younger people here, this may come as a surprise, but the nation was glued to the news for weeks over that. 9/11 obviously overshadowed it 3 years later, and it’s since lost it’s impact due to school shootings being so common. But in 1998? It would have been story of the year had it not been for a Bill Clinton sex scandal.

    Thats how absurd and crazy it was that a mindless public shooting happened. At all. And at a school no less. We’d had gun violence before in this country at that point, but mostly it was person A hates person B, and shoots them. Columbine was just shoot anything that moves. And at that point in time, that concept was wild and almost unheard of.

    Now? Now it’s so common that it would be like reporting on a cat chasing a mouse. Happens all the time.

    So, pro gun nuts, if you want a reason why we need to start regulating guns in this country… That. All of that. Just for a start.






  • Quick question, honest question…

    At what point are the right happy?

    Because the left will be happy when everybody has equal rights, and a high standard of living for everyone.

    So, if that’s the lefts benchmark of a great society, what’s the right fighting towards? Money? Power? Control?

    Then what?

    When is America “great again”?

    Because they’ve been pushing that slogan since the 80s. What’s the endgame here?

    Because from where I’m sitting, there is no endgame. Nothing will ever make them happy. Nothing will ever be good enough. So what the fuck is the point?




  • Look man. I don’t know what to tell you. I was the president of the USA from 2032-2040. I’m also a time traveler here to warn you about this crazy pandemic that happens in 2020. Look, it won’t make sense until it happens. Everybody is going to wear masks, there’s murder hornets that turn out to be no big deal, there’s a shortage of toilet paper. It’s a whole thing that shuts down the whole planet. Point is, people thought after 3 years it was over. Turns out, it makes people go batshit insane. They elect a guy who before campaign season even starts is already convicted 34 times, but never sent to prison. He turns out to be a legit fascist and a throwback to nazism in the 1930s. And people just accept this because their brains are rotted.

    Point is, I’m here from the future. Sooooooo, can I have like $500,000?

    What?

    Oh, shit. Thats right. The second great depression hasn’t happened yet.

    Can I have $5.00?
