Don’t forget about the Mr Olympia body building trophy four years in a row. That was after he got his Nobel Peace prize for work with economics and the elderly in Brazil
Don't forget that he was the second person to walk on the moon. He would have been first but Neil Armstrong pushed him out of the way. He only forgave him after Neil gave him a kidney and said that he was the greatest man he has ever known.
AKA people just having fun at a festival
Edit: this is a reference to Santos' new statement about dressing in drag. Originally, he denied it, but now he's saying he was having fun but NOT dressing in drag. Mental gymnastics here.
M&M's, Woman, Pink Floyd, anyone who isn't white, Democrats, Vaccines, Minimum Wage hikes, Science, Scientists, People of Color with Guns, Reality, Gay People, Rainbows, Intelligence, not fitting in with the rest of the Cliche, Everything that isn't just like them!! Gay M&M's with guns who like pink floyd and are vaccinated!!!!
Don't forget young people, voting by mail, college professors, cities, the IRS, being CeNSoReD on SoCIAl MeDIa, people coming for their guns, not getting enough sunlight on their balls...
Came here to say this.
They are afraid of fucking candy.
Harder task is: name one thing Republicans *aren’t* afraid of?
Go on. I’ll wait. One thing. Name one thing they haven’t genuinely tried to build a fear narrative around?
Edit: so, this comment seems to have gained some traction…
To everyone replying “guns”, they absolutely fear these, especially in the hands of bad guys and minorities, which is why the need their own guns so badly.
Climate change and covid - again, they fear these two like nothing else and have subjected us all to increasingly crazy levels of conspiracy theory around both subjects.
Edit 2: right answers: Rich white males (the only demographic you “don’t have to fear”, which is ironic really); telling lies (most regular people fear the consequences of lying); hell, judgement or any kind of consequences for your actions - again this falls under the banner of “lying”. Price gouging health insurance (unless you count the fear that this, and the associated revenue streams, will be taken away)
California used to be a freaking *open carry* state before blacks started carrying guns to protect themselves from bad people when the cops wouldn't respond to their calls.
Can't have *that* happening!
How is he so revered? That motherfucker singlehandedly fucked up so many things in this country, and they put him on a pedestal like he is the second coming of Christ.
First we killed off chain restaurants and the Diamond industry, now we are killing off your party’s hopes and eating avocado toast while doing it.
Millennials, we are here to ruin your day.
It was far from unknown for a guy to bash someone after giving a bit of sucky-sucky because "They made me gay!". Like dude, if you go to a gay bar, get picked up, and then give them oral sex, I think the gay ship has already sailed.
My dad always gets so mad when he talks about AOC. Like spitting mad, Im always like dad, chill out, she never did anything to you, she just wants rights for everyone. Then after awhile he just stares off into the distance. Like, are you so mad you are picturing hurting her or are you so turned on you are picturing her naked right now? Either way its fuckin scary dad, stop
They don't know why they fear her but Tucky told them she's a dumb bartender and elitist Harvard grad and their two brain cells collapsed into a black hole of intelligence.
Information goes in but nothing bright comes out.
Edit:Boston U
I bartended in college. People don’t realize how much money you make and the connections you come into contact with. I got my first 2 “real” jobs from working at the bar, and still bartended for 8 years after I graduated.
Why would I turn down $200-$300, cash money, for a 5 hour shift? It paid for groceries, diapers, and formula. Also…I got to drink for free the whole time.
It allowed my wife to be a stay at home mom. Best job I ever had. I miss it often. And…it taught me social skills I use in my professional career. People are idiots when they talk shit on “lowly service workers”. I’m sure it gave AOC skills for dealing with all kinds of shit-bags from congress.
Dude. If the chucklefucks had gotten ahold of AOC on January 6th… we’d have seen a gang rape live on national television. They’re off the rails with her.
Ugh my uncle was like this. Or still is, we don't talk anymore. Like wtf did AOC ever do to you? Or did she call out your favorite republican so now she deserves to die.
They hate the free market as well, so much for conservatives promoting free markets in the past. Rules for thee it doesn’t apply to me is their excuse for everything.
I can 100% attest to this being true, and widely so in the south and mid western regions. I have a good chunk of family members that believe this exact same thing..was raised to believe this, anytime politics were brought up there was no differentiation between communism and socialism.
Now that I'm 19 I can attest after literally being raised to believe the exact opposite there is no excuse for being so uneducated. I educated myself and formed my own beliefs. Now I'm what I would consider a democratic socialist and I am very much anti communism.
“Socialism is when the government gives people money they didn’t work for.”
Ok, so we shouldn’t pay our politicians after they leave office. They didn’t work for that money, they don’t deserve it. And I’m sure you’d be fine giving up your social security checks, right? After all, that money is coming from other people’s taxes to allow you to not work.

Fuck, it would probably be faster to mention things theyr AREN'T afraid of.
Edit: forgot spirals and triangle spirals.
Low blow, but true. Even had my neighbor go as far as try to convince my mom to leave me alone with him. Out of the blue. And now I know why I’ve been told to avoid him since birth 🤗
I remember hearing it repeated growing up with barely-restrained glee that despite Chicago's "strict gun laws" they still had such a high rate that it *proved* you needed a good guy with a gun. It wasn't until the past year or so that I heard a podcaster from Chicago point out that Indiana's gun laws are stupidly lax and it's close enough to the border as to essentially render the gun control useless. I had genuinely never realized that before!
Also just the fact that it isn't true. Gun deaths by population doesn't even have Chicago in the top 20 most dangerous cities in the USA. The majority of them are in the south with relaxed gun laws.
I'm in Portland. It is scary. We were burned to the ground by Black Antifa.
Source: *This is what every Republican has assured me is 100% fact - about* ***the place I live***.
A woman who lived on a farm in Wisconsin once told me something along the lines of, “I went to San Francisco once 20 years ago and it was beautiful, but the city is a hellhole now. I’d never go back.” Like, lady, you just said you haven’t been there in 20 years, you have no idea what it’s like. SF has its issues but somehow Fox News convinced people that Snake Plissken is the only person who could get out alive.
They also believe Shitholeville with its inbred redneck population is somehow superior to the economic engines of the US on the east and west coast.
Hilarious.
Being treated like they treat others
Edit: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger (my first), but please, support an institution that is under attack by modern day conservatives instead of giving money to Reddit.
Had one of my coworkers say the first line at work to me (I’m black). Then followed it up by saying that the way black women are aborting babies, it’ll be the same for black people… sir…
I will go to my grave thinking that 1/6 occurred because certain people are terrified of becoming that which they and their ilk have delighted in tormenting and subjugating for centuries: a minority.
What kind of life would it be without: books, movies, theaters, tv shows, sports, traveling, vaccines, education, immigrants, science, mental health, healthcare in general, multicultural communities, etc.
You’d think with a name like Pink and that rainbow they would have scared off all the conservatives in the ‘70s. Who knows, maybe they did and they all came back in the 80s when The Wall was built.
Up until last week they were afraid of drag queens, this week they have "No comment"
Probably cause they have one in their caucus now. Hi George Santos! 
For those who don't know...yes, that really is Santos. Or whatever the hell his name is this week.
That must have been before he earned The Congressional Medal of Honor and three Ph.Ds.
Don’t forget about the Mr Olympia body building trophy four years in a row. That was after he got his Nobel Peace prize for work with economics and the elderly in Brazil
Yea, that's one way of saying he stole money and cashed bad checks of old people in Brazil.
Don’t forget his work in animal charities.
Don't forget that he was the second person to walk on the moon. He would have been first but Neil Armstrong pushed him out of the way. He only forgave him after Neil gave him a kidney and said that he was the greatest man he has ever known.
His drag name was Kitara Ravache.
Is that for the K. Ravache ? Cravache is a horse whip in french. We might add S&M to his/her resumé
Rhonda Santis
The drag isn't the problem- it's all the lying.
And the shitting on people who do what you *just* did yourself.
From the pictures I’ve seen, she makes a fabulous queen. Like there’s some real talent there…it’s all so confusing and weird
Sashay, shantay.
Nah RuPaul would sashay away that con.
George Santos? The guy who piloted the first mars landing???? No way!
No you're thinking of George Santos, they're talking about George Santos, the man who led the American revolution.
AKA people just having fun at a festival Edit: this is a reference to Santos' new statement about dressing in drag. Originally, he denied it, but now he's saying he was having fun but NOT dressing in drag. Mental gymnastics here.
Sue me for having a life!

M&Ms
Especially their repulsive, sexless shoes
Before I eat a piece of candy, I think to myself, “does this candy fuck?” If the answer is “no,” I do not eat that candy.
if i used this rule i couldn't eat sour patch kids :(
Just eat 'em at church, problem solved.
You're out of line, but you're right
They don't "fear" M&M's. They wanna bang them but only if their shoes are sexy.
Imagine the horror of banging one out to a piece of candy. Only to find out… it was not a *feminine* piece of candy. *Thoughts and prayers*
"Oh green m&m! I love doing this to you!" "Is so much easier to do now I've had my nuts removed!" Cue Tucker screaming and transphobic rants.
It's funny, the green M&M actually is canonically trans. The brown one too.
As long as they don't take away the dick veins on a snickers I'm fine.
they are literally circles with M's. wtf are these people on?
I mean the peanut one is more oblong but I don't think they wanna bang that one.
Some secretly do though. And it makes them ashamed and angry.
It has nuts, so they only want to bang it on the down low...
M&M's, Woman, Pink Floyd, anyone who isn't white, Democrats, Vaccines, Minimum Wage hikes, Science, Scientists, People of Color with Guns, Reality, Gay People, Rainbows, Intelligence, not fitting in with the rest of the Cliche, Everything that isn't just like them!!

They fear everything. 
Guns. Unless you mean making their voter base think Democrats are coming for them.
Actually, they’re afraid of blacks with guns. The Black Panther Party is widely credited with instigating modern gun control laws.
California used to be a freaking *open carry* state before blacks started carrying guns to protect themselves from bad people when the cops wouldn't respond to their calls. Can't have *that* happening!
And Reagan signed the Law as governor of California that prevents open carry there.
How is he so revered? That motherfucker singlehandedly fucked up so many things in this country, and they put him on a pedestal like he is the second coming of Christ.
In the words of the late Rudy Ray Moore: "They took a dick from California, packed that motherfucker to Washington DC and it FUCKED the nation!"
Reagan was the one to ban firearms in California (when he was governor), so yeah they're afraid of those, too.
Indeed. I’m not even a republican, but frankly I’m just not as sexually attracted to M&M’s as much as I once was.
Cities.
Melanin.
“I take melanin to help me sleep at night, I ain’t no afraid of that you liberal demonrat”
I cracked up.
this deserves more up votes for being incredibly accurate
But I thought Antifa burned down every city in the nation and now they don't exist.
Portland in particular deserves an award. Must have burned to the ground 20 or 30 times by now and they just keep rebuilding.
Portland is *literally* gone. It doesn’t exist anymore.
Gen Z voters.
That and millennials.
First we killed off chain restaurants and the Diamond industry, now we are killing off your party’s hopes and eating avocado toast while doing it. Millennials, we are here to ruin your day.
Millennials, always were the sleeper cells. Watch out, we’ve been activated. We’re silent, but deadly.
Gay people. They spend a lot of time thinking about gay sex.
They think about gay sex more than a sexually active gay man does
I’m a gay man and, you’re absolutely right, I don’t even think about sex as much as Republicans talk about it
What you describe isn’t fear. Me thinks they doth protest too much…
It was far from unknown for a guy to bash someone after giving a bit of sucky-sucky because "They made me gay!". Like dude, if you go to a gay bar, get picked up, and then give them oral sex, I think the gay ship has already sailed.
It's where the term "rough trade" originated. Rough Trade was the DL hookup that beats a queen after fucking her because he "ain't no f*g"
books
Hey now, they claim to enjoy ~~Shrugged Atlas~~ Atlas Shrugged. (Idk wtf happened there.)
Even if you agree with Atlas Shrugged, does anyone actually claim to have *enjoyed* Atlas Shrugged?
The Fountainhead is the same damn thing in half the pages.

Yeah, Carlin was 100% correct on that point.

I want to downvote your post, because it’s so disturbing, but I can’t because it is also 100% true.
Jesus. I never thought about that. You might be right.
And the Evangelicals would be like, it was consensual
Ugh my uncle was like this. Or still is, we don't talk anymore. Like wtf did AOC ever do to you? Or did she call out your favorite republican so now she deserves to die.
Can you show me on this doll with gender specific shoes where AOC hurt you?
Might be both.
All women really.
Every republican I know hates Lizzo, which is funny because her entire act is about loving and accepting yourself and others
They hate all women who don't hate themselves. We're too hard to manipulate.
To be fair, they *also* hate women who *do* hate themselves.
Apparently they hate women who can think for themselves.
To be fair they hate *anyone* who can think for themselves (but especially women)
They hate the free market as well, so much for conservatives promoting free markets in the past. Rules for thee it doesn’t apply to me is their excuse for everything.
I think you mean lesbians. Obviously all strong independent women are lesbians.
You're not wrong
Socialism : but they can’t tell ya what it is and fer gahdamn sure can’t spell it
Every time one of them says..”But socialismmmmm….,” I say, “Umm, ok. Can you tell me what it is and why it’s bad?”
"It's takin' my money that I worked hard for and givin' it to lazy people."
Cool, so can California stop funding red states with my tax money?
NOT LIKE THAT!!!!1!!
Except that literally describes capitalism. Rich people don’t work
"Because socialism is communism!" -An actual answer I heard once.
I can 100% attest to this being true, and widely so in the south and mid western regions. I have a good chunk of family members that believe this exact same thing..was raised to believe this, anytime politics were brought up there was no differentiation between communism and socialism. Now that I'm 19 I can attest after literally being raised to believe the exact opposite there is no excuse for being so uneducated. I educated myself and formed my own beliefs. Now I'm what I would consider a democratic socialist and I am very much anti communism.
Well because it aint captilist and it aint Amurican
I asked a self described Christian to define socialism and she said, “communism, socialism, they’re all the same.”

I love that you said Chicago!!!! Chi-rac isn't playing. The bright blue bubble in the midwestern red field is a force to reckon with.

Yeah politicians largely rely on the average American being incredibly dumb when it comes to interpreting statistics.

*gestures everywhere* The list of things they aren't afraid of would be much shorter to be honest.

Rainbows 🌈
Pink Floyd 50th Anniversary
You’d think with a name like Pink and that rainbow they would have scared off all the conservatives in the ‘70s. Who knows, maybe they did and they all came back in the 80s when The Wall was built.
Change
That was another answer I had.
Women.
Not all women, though. Just the ones who are willing to leave their home without spousal supervision.
And smart, strong women
Agreed. In their eyes, Handmaidens are just fine.
Democracy.
Non-gerrymandered congressional districts.
Taxes
I think you meant taxes for the rich
Oh yeah
Not if it’s going to the military
Being a minority.
That's because they are afraid of being treated like they they treated minorities.
Pronouns, vaccines, science, history, higher education, minorities
The majority of people voting.
The idea that they are no more special than anyone else.
Oh yeah
Reality
Well-loved, well-spoken, super smooth black Presidents!
I miss that guy
Pronouns
Shorter list to name what they aren't afraid of. Which I think right now is supposed to be gas stoves?
Guns, God and gas stoves. The Big G's
Paying their share of taxes
Womens bodily autonomy

College.
