    People who interact with normal people don't talk like that.

    Long ago, these people would have been hermits, isolated for their antisocial behavior.

    Maybe we need to start punishing people by taking away their smartphones.

      the internet has allowed the village whacko from every village to organize into large groups and take over lmao.

      This is a bad take. Without smartphones we had KKK and other reactionary groups. People were always able to organize around reactionary causes.

        People were always able to organize around reactionary causes.

        Yours is a bad take because it ignores the speed, efficiency, and ease of organizing, sometimes world-wide, that modern technology grants to such groups.

        Claiming it was always absolutely 100% the same ever and ever, regardless of material conditions, is a thought terminating cliche.

          The point is that those people would not be hermits isolated from the society. They'd be organizing in their local chapters of KKK or NSDAP. Laura Loomer is not your average frothing chud who got radicalized.

            My point is they would still have significantly limited and localized reach and would have to operate and function as semi-autonomous cells instead of a larger networked whole.

              Also true of communists, however. You'd effectively be abandoning comrades in rural America or anywhere in the South.

                The internet has accelerated organizing among every political group. I'm ok with Loomer types getting exposed in return for having places like Hexbear stalin-heart

                My point, again, is that conditions do change.

    Behold the master race: Laura Loomer handcuffing herself to one half of a double door and being laughed at by everyone walking through the other.

      lol, wild. I had heard the name a bunch but never looked her up before. Jesus Christ:

      In April 2023 it was reported that Donald Trump wanted to hire Loomer for a campaign role.[16][17] However the idea was said to have been met with heavy resistance from Trump's team,[18] as well as warnings from Marjorie Taylor Greene over hiring a "documented liar"

      what level of loser fuck up do you have to be on for MTG to call you full of shit.

      I was ready for it to be bad, I read the title and peppered myself for the worst, but WOW, how do you have a moment like that caught on camera and not retire from public life forever?

      This inability to get laid would destroy the credibility of any woman worth her salt but the right really just breed the best.

    She's practically confirming the statement from Trump's own secret service that his ear wasn't grazed by a bullet but rather cut by some sort of debris.

    If you keep bringing that point up, "no no I was totally grazed!", when 1) no one has discussed it since the day of and 2) no one gives a fuck about any of it now, I'm just going to reflexively assume they're being overly defensive over the whole thing... the way liars are. The false indignation of "how dare you, sir!" shit.

    Also in a democracy politicians' jobs are to "pander." Or by a more correct name... "promise the electorate things they need."

    Unfortunately for everyone, Kamala is actually not pandering to the masses. Only to small business shitclowns and DoD contractors.

      If half the things Republicans said about Harris were true, she would be well on the way to becoming the most based president we've ever had.

      But sadly, no, she's just like every other generic shitlib.

    Didn't Loomer handcuff herself to the Twitter office building to protest her ban? Turns out the ban was them trying to save her from herself.
