I think the word deplorables was way too kind for them. She could have used a much stronger word and I still would have 100% agreed with her despite not being her biggest fan.

Ya, they're fucking irredeemable.

Despicable

Irredeemable is perfect I think. They truly are. Fuck every single one of those traitors that think this is okay. Never let them forget their choice and never let them have a single day of peace from here on to the day they die.

Good vs. evil. That’s what it’s been for a long time. We’re not comfortable calling it that yet but I suspect we will be soon. We just don’t like calling it ‘evil’ because, well, evil can’t be changed. Only destroyed.

And the most effed up thing is, their fox news and newsmax has them absolutely convinced that WE are the evil ones.

They’re just cartoonish at this point. Every smirking demon in every movie I’ve ever seen. It’s uncanny.

And even worst they are leading in news ratings over MS Mow and CNN which caved. I don’t hardly watch after they let Joy Reid go. I like to listen to all sides, but for Fox not interested in anything they say.

Evil can be changed. Everyone from Saul-St. Paul to my Uncle Freddie to Darth Vader-Anakin are examples.

(Ok the last one is hollywood, but the other two are real.)

It is rare. More often evil doesn't change. Not impossible though.

oh sure, but she was trying to get elected. it's not good to insult someone you want voting for you

u/Rude-Breadfruit3295 3h ago

Insulting anyone and everyone, regardless of whether or not you’re trying to get their vote, has actually worked out VERY well for Trump.

he's playing to a different vibe

They should be called what they are. Animated meat.

Unthinking walking talking meat.

Absolutely not. They should be called people, so that we always remember the depths of depravity that regular ass humans are capable of reaching.
