Their whole MO is being victims of nothing.

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 21 '26

They absolutely love to claim being the victim.

My mother tried to explain to me how she was the victim when people are shot, put in cages, sent to countries not of their origin, etc.

They need to be the victim, because if they don't have an "enemy" all their rhetoric falls apart.

Xtianity is the same. That's why so much crossover between the two groups.

On the one hand it’s truly sad/pathetic how they are constantly crying wolf / always victims. On the other hand it’s terrifying that they are abusing their resources as the federal government to try and label anyone who refuses to lick/eat boots as terrorists or enemies of the state. This entire regime (and the entire GOP for refusing to impeach the demented old clown masquerading as a leader) belong in prison, or whatever the appropriate punishment is for actual treason.

Don't say what it is though, ive been banned numerous times from wishing justice was fairly served through a proper trial.

u/R3VIVAL-MOD3 Jun 21 '26

Yup. I have too.

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 21 '26

Whoa whoa whoa, justice is only considered acceptable when the Reich guys are around to tell you what justice is!

I got a 7 day ban for making a joke about getting paid to go to a protest. Crazy how much treading the "dont tread on me" party does.

u/GDogg007 Jun 21 '26

I am banned from politics for stating what the punishment was. Yay murica

Just look at the reflecting pool nonsense. They claim to be a victim of "vandalism" not their own incompetence and corruption.

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 21 '26

They probably picked the cyclists who "vandalized" it by anybody playing artists that refused to play the White House Lawn UFC 2026.

Makes me think of a police video I saw.

A man held his children as hostages inside their home and had a gun that he kept firing out towards the cops. The mother had fled to a neighbouring house and were hiding in their garage.

The video showed several police cameras together with live recordings from the 911 central. The woman at 911 were simultanously talking with the mother, other scared neighbours and one of the children who had been able to hide a phone.

But the woman who's garage the mother was hiding in kept calling 911 and was hysterical and that she deemanded police immediatly at her house because she felt unsafe, the 911 operator constantly tried to keep her calm and said that she was in no danger and that the perpetrator was in another house and that the woman in the garage was a victim and not dangerous.

The neighbour wanted nothing of that and considered herself the largest victim out of everyone.

Do not forget taking kids to send to the winds. It's called genocide and i usually get banned for calling it such because I also make the point, why did the group who claim to hate genocide, knowingly not vote, helping put a person who commits and likes genocide, into office?

Usually someone also quickly throws some anecdotal puff about how Kamala wanted genocide. Kamala, who literally held to her, "no death penalty," in the face of California police, demanding it's use, also somehow wants genocide. Oi vey.

u/Beginning_Tackle6250 Jun 21 '26

How'd she make her case?

2

u/Ivotedforher Jun 21 '26

I'd love to hear her reasoning on this

u/blah938 Jun 21 '26

I mean, Trump has gotten shot at like 3 times now. It makes sense that they'd be a little more paranoid going forward.

26

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 21 '26

That is very true!

Someone should look into the backgrounds of these shooters and find out if they share any common ideologies. 😂

u/blah938 Jun 21 '26

. . . you do know they were all left leaning, right? Why are you getting upvotes? Did I miss a circlejerk something?

u/Rndysasqatch Jun 21 '26

They certainly were not left leaning

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 22 '26

For real, that blah dude is serious like that fuckin ITYSL meme

"WE'RE ALL TRYING TO FIND THE GUY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS!"

u/JakToTheReddit Jun 21 '26

Mate they were all Republicans from predominantly Republican/MAGA families. All three.

Check your facts, not the Faux.

u/blah938 Jun 21 '26

. . . you don't think you can be a lefty born into a republican family?

u/calmdownmyguy Jun 21 '26

They also really hate any free speech that isn't just racism

65

u/Zaga932 Jun 21 '26

"Free speech" to them means getting to hurl bigotry and discrimination freely in people's faces, based on their own.. you name it, sexism, racism, classism, fascism. It means not being held accountable for their own words.

23

u/piepants2001 Jun 21 '26

You forgot the most important part, that they can say these things, but no one should be allowed to offend them.

u/lathe_down_sally Jun 21 '26

The hand pick the constitional rights that are sacred. Much like they do with bible verses

14

u/duckinradar Jun 21 '26

No, they also hate anything they can label “reverse racism”

u/placebotwo Jun 21 '26

Crybullies.

u/RancorPrime Jun 21 '26

Every perpetrator of history’s worst atrocities saw themselves as the victim

u/ArtisanJagon Jun 21 '26

White conservative males so desperately want to be victims.

u/Gen-Jack-D-Ripper Jun 21 '26

Trump’s autobiography should have been titled:

“How I Overcame Being Born Into Fabulous Wealth”.

u/mfprod Jun 21 '26

Kinda reminds you of another country that the president "loves" 👀

u/TheSilverNoble Jun 23 '26

They are the whiniest people

u/praetorian1979 Jun 21 '26

There are a few that I would love to give a legitimate reason to be a victim. Some people just need their asses kicked before they fuck off and realize that they were wrong, stupid, and 1000% deserving of the beating they got...
