Oh man, don’t insult Mohammad either. These people. Jokes.
Like with Obama’s joke about Trump this week saying that the White House renovations made the building look like “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory”.
The GOP flipped out about the cheesecake factory part, but not about the comparison to Saddam.
For those not in the know, Trump’s style of decorating has a name that existed long before 2016, it’s called “dictator chic” and it is the same decorating style Saddam, Qaddafi, other dictators and drug lords embrace.
The GOP flipped out about the cheesecake factory part, but not about the comparison to Saddam.
A strategic decision to make this about insulting white people, rather than comparing Trump to a historic National Enemy.
It flopped, in large part because Republicans have fully forgotten how to meme. But it’s the standard conservative racism jujitsu.
how dare you call my house a McMansion!
What are you talking about? They don’t make it a criminal offense to broadcast anyone insulting America. In fact they have people whose job is to go on TV and make jokes about how stupid America is. They have entire networks dedicated to talking about how much they hate the current administration. Insulting America is like an American national pasttime.
Compare that to China where every news network messaging is enforced by the state, and saying anything else is illegal.
As an American who also insults America this thread doesn’t make me mad at anything more than how people stupidly hold another ape up as a paragon and then argue whether they were shitty or not.
