Hey all, sincerely hope you're well.

Many of our American posters are gathering together with family and friends today. They're likely to hear plenty of awful takes from their liberals. Unscratched, freshly scratched, or pre-scratched chuds alike, there are sure to be brainworms all around the table and openly airing their unhinged grievances. Please feel free to share their awful takes here. This thread is open for supporting one another, venting, laughing at bad family takes (both stale and bespoke).

This thread is intended to be a supportive space to bring the community together. Please be kind to one another. As always, discussion of struggle sessions or attempts to relitigate them will not be permitted.

Have fun and keep cozy! comfy

    probably gonna post this in the general too because I think it's funny/awful/not-strictly-Thanksgiving enough to be of general interest, but wanted to specifically share with those of you also suffering with truly maddening family, please enjoy these photographic highlights:

    flag pic details

    I tried so hard to get a better picture of the _absolutely horrifying _ flag, but the wind was not cooperating and I was attracting attention, so I had to give up. I thought I would easily find an image of it myself, but I can't. here's a collage to help you imagine: half USA, half "Israel," and there was some weird flaming-starry lion thing in the center, partially super-imposed over the Star of David

    vaguely looked like amerikkka at first glance and for a moment I was very excited they were accidentally cool

    it honestly reads as "Evangelical Americans for Genocide" and makes me deeply ashamed of my family 😞

    anyway, fuck Thanksgiving, be grateful every day and TAKE PILLS[1]

    1. vitamins – that message was genuinely about vitamins 🤦😂 that place is a trip ↩︎

      Having a flag pole in your yard is already a fucking weird ass thing chuds do, but that lion flag is something else.

      Woah your relatives are like next level chuds lol. I thought I had some bad ones, but there's enough liberals in the family that the chud ones usually don't speak up about politics. We'll see what happens when they're a couple beers in, but still... the flag pole and shit? That's a whole other level. I'm so sorry lol.

          probably! idk, he's an adult (mid-20s) who had as much access to the Internet as I did growing up, he could have made different decisions 🤷 my extended family will be sad if he gets blown up for killing people in the name of Amerikkka, but I won't
