I feel like the contrast of these posts really exemplify it. I don't fucking care about the white house ufc arena I just don't fucking care. No one is going to make me care about such a frivilous fucking spectacle. I'm so tired
Washington DC should have every building removed and the land should be returned to the Nacotchtank
The amusing part to me is that the aspects of Trump that drive liberals absolutely insane are like the only things that I actually kind of appreciate about the guy (in a limited way, let me explain).
He represents The Burgerland Empire™ absolutely perfectly. The fact that he is such a boorish, craven idiot, openly corrupt, borderline illiterate, short-tempered, self centred, and so on, he finally rips the mask off of imperialism. To much of the rest of the world this is who America has always been. But liberals hate it because they feel a little too exposed without that mask. They can't pretend anymore and can only hope they can go "back to brunch" and put their heads back in the sand when he's gone. Always just one election away from salvation!
Compare him to Anthony Blinkin, who wore an expensive suit and talked in smooth, diplomatic language all while openly supporting a live-streamed fucking genocide. Trump just up and says it. "It's the department of war now." or "We're just gonna steal venezuela's oil". There's no bullshit pretend game in the Trump admin.
And it's not even so much that liberals dislike his foreign policy; in fact I think secretly a lot of them support a lot of what he has done, they just wish he filled out the proper paperwork first and gave it the proper decorum and pretense. The liberals that I talk to who complain about Trump on a daily basis have never once criticised the bombing of Caracas and kidnapping of Maduro, nor the war in Iran. Come to think of it, I can't even remember them complaining about the immigrant concentration camps, or the increased surveillance and repression of activists and Palestine protesters. I think they just kinda wish the Trump admin was more low key about it.
You know what? Keep the UFC ring on the white house lawn. Make it a permanent fixture. I find it extremely fitting for The Burger Reich
And just so I am being perfectly clear to any of you in other instances who might not get what most Hexbears likely already presume, of course I think that Trump is a massive piece of shit and I hope that he
Libs: "USA is doing democracy and freedom, and yes sometimes it goes wron.."
Trump: "We're pirates! We're gonna take their oil! We're gonna destroy their society!"
Literally "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again"
trump is the most american president ever and i mean that as an insult
Every day Trump is in office, for libs is like one of those dreams where you are exposed in public completely nude and can do nothing about it. We are the lucid dreamers but we can do nothing about this knowing it is all a dream, the only way to break it is for all of us to collectively recognize this nightmare for what it is and kill our sleep paralysis demon.
Motherfucker, you gotta recognize where you are, and then you gotta get passed that. You gotta be unemotional. You can't sink into this hole. You live in the oubliette. Your job is to crawl up the ladder, motherfucker. You live in the HOLE. You're in the HOLE. You are a RAT. And the rat, when he's in the hole gets fucked. People only throw trash in the hole.
You need to eat a body. And you need to carry the plague. And you need to carry a plague around this whole world, that will change this whole fuckin world. And all your enemies will vomit black bile and will choke on blood and will grow boils and die. But only if you get together with your other RATS. And you come up with some kind of super plague, to fuckin end your enemies and...
End. This. Nightmare.
lol shit did I unintentionally channel Brace?
" I can excuse the genocide , wars, and ICE detention camps, but draw the line at UFC fights and ballrooms."
They're just as amoral and disgusting as the republicans, but they smugly declare that they are morally superior not just to the CHUDs, but also to leftists, all while not giving a shit about the morality of the US empire and only caring about "decorum". And they don't even care about the things they pretend are bad. If a Democrat wanted to build this victory arch, they'd declare it the greatest architectural project of the century. They're just so slimy and hypocritical, just pure blue MAGA tribalist team sport thinking in everything.
Like obviously the wars are worse. And the pearl-clutching distracts from the wars/senseless murder of civilians. And the child rape. And everything else.
But this is more blantant corruption on top of everything else. He bought like $50k worth shares (that we know about) of the parent company behind UFC in late March before announcing this massive spectacle starring the UFC, which has already increased its stock price ~20%. So this is yet another corrupt grift - that's the real story, not "hEs MaKiNg A mOcKeRy Of OuR sAcReD iNsTiTuTiOnS" or just drawing him as a fat orange baby (which will definitely hurt his feelings). Despite it being relatively minor, before trump 1 this is insider trading and would have been a moderate to large scandal that may have led to impeachment, as it should.

Nancy Pelosi has been doing insider trading for DECADES and I don't remember liberals making a single peep about it.
there's broad public support for bills banning that not-legally-insider trading. maybe that would mean something if the US was a democracy
I just don't care about his corruption either. It isn't that big of a deal, they all steal from us
"I was fine with the guy mugging me and stealing my wallet, and stabbing me in the process, but he didn't need to make rude comments about me while he was doing so."
Chickenshit moddery
Yeah sorry, that is a bad take. Multiple things can be bad at once. There are good reasons to be mad about this scenario (corruption) and bad reasons (pearl clutching). Neither takes away from the murdering children, one is much stupider than the other, though.
Just because he is also murdering children doesn't mean he should get away with theft and corruption, too. He should not get away with either thing. To achieve that requires both things being known.
The huffpo link has accurate info. I wanted to post something without a paywall. Like, here's fucking sports illustrated if you prefer https://www.si.com/fannation/wrestling/president-donald-trump-is-reportedly-now-a-tko-shareholder
Or new york times, which is hardly any better than huff https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7319008/2026/05/29/trump-white-house-ufc-fight-stock/
Yeah nice one. That was said sarcastically, as a very obvious joke about a literal gay trans communist dog. A dog that was communist, trans, and gay and what a reactionary would say about such a dog. It was dumb, but when it was reported I sincerely apologized.
I think you are not being productive and I will not engage with you further. But I hope you have a nice night.
Satire demands clarity of purpose. You were rightfully chastised for your unfunny "joke" and all my other critiques still stand.
Sarcastic racism is still racism, sarcastic queerphobia is still that, if you don't make it clear then you are at fault.
$50k worth shares of the parent company behind UFC in late March before announcing this massive spectacle starring the UFC, which has already increased its stock price ~16%
Did you leave out a zero or something or was it actually that little? 50k is... I mean with his portfolio that's basically a rounding error. Are you sure his brokers didn't just pick that up in some kind of index type thing?
He picked up $7000 on that deal, then. I have a feeling that's /probably/ not related.
And I wouldn't be so sure about that if we didn't just have him publicly talking about invading Iran for oil profit yesterday, and that's a conversation that's taking place in the billions of dollars range not the thousands.
I think even numerically it's barely something to talk about if it's really a $50k affair.
Was gonna ask that too, but at the same time I absolute believe he's that small minded and greedy.
Could shake either way yeah tbh.
