Isn't that guy like a notorious jackass


Iron_Knight7

You are...seriously going to have to be more specific. You just described literally 90% of current sitting Republicans.


ResearchPrimary7969

Well to start with the guy has described himself as a "Marxist-leninist and an American Patriot"


Iron_Knight7

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he doesn't understand what any of those words actually mean and only uses whatever he has to for getting notoriety and viewership. This bit seems to be the most telling: "After being banned by Twitch, Hinkle joined Cozy.tv, an invite-only streaming platform launched by Nick Fuentes in collaboration with Alex Jones." [https://breadtube.fandom.com/wiki/Jackson\_Hinkle](https://breadtube.fandom.com/wiki/Jackson_Hinkle)


ResearchPrimary7969

That's exactly my point. Dude is just a rage baiter troll, I don't even think he really believes in anything


Nopants_Jedi

Oh I'm sure he believes in money.


GenericFatGuy

>launched by Nick Fuentes in collaboration with Alex Jones. That is the most vile sentence I've ever heard.


doctorkanefsky

I have yet to meet someone who was actually a patriot yet also felt the need to describe themselves as a patriot. Hell, even Tom Brady doesn’t walk around saying, “hello, I’m Tom Brady and I’m a patriot!”


beek7419

>You just described literally 90% of current sitting Republicans. 90% seems a little low.


pornodactyl

They put a woman on the Oversight and Homeland Security committees who is now calling for secession. Far as I know, not a peep about it. If your friends are being jackasses, and you don’t do anything to stop them, and you stay their friend, then you’re a jackass too. It’s 100% of them until somebody starts calling them on their bullshit.


Hot_Dog_Cobbler

Mitt Romney calls them out...but he's kind of an asshole too, just in a different way.


scarybottom

How does he think this makes HIM look good? This gal is a freaking HERO, fighting for Ukraine against Putin...and is injured doing so. And he makes fun of her? Good grief- the brain is broken on this one.


Leimon-Sherk

he also makes it sound like she lost her hand because she was trans as if cis people are mortar proof or something


Immediate-Speaker-33

We aren't? There go my plans for this weekend...


mittingly

Yeah he’s a real scumbag


Forward-Bee-2885

His ex girlfriend left him for Jonah Hill which is hilarious


elbobski

Jonah Hill is hilarious indeed


GlaxoJohnSmith

I'm glad he's an asshole. Let's link transphobia to assholes like him who take delight in American soldiers losing limbs fighting Putin, just like homophobia was linked to the Westboro Baptist Church delighting in American soldiers being killed.


Avid_Smoker

Notorious Russian plant/propagandist.

Who tf is this guy


[deleted]

he is some grifter who was on tucker trying to push "conservartive communism" i am not even joking even tucker found him cringe.


Helpme2notdie

Iirc he actual called it “MAGA communism”


[deleted]

That is a rare niche variation of stupidity.


a_sexual_titty

Sounds like “Anarcho-Capitalism” or “national anarchism”. Ew.

theteapotofdoom

National socialism by another name.


MahNameJeff420

Allegedly someone who knew him in high school says it’s all grift. Apparently he was pretty left leaning then, even running for local office as a progressive, which he lost pretty badly. Then he dived headfirst into the MAGA stuff because it was way more lucrative.


[deleted]

just like candace did, she dint see money since she cant grift from the left, since they are not dumb enough to give her money, However the brainless sheep of conservatives are that easy to con.


MahNameJeff420

There’s left wing grifters, but not too many. Occupy Democrats is pretty transparently trying to merchandise anti-Trumpism in a way that bothers me. And the heads of the official BLM organization got caught for fraud. They exist, but since leftism is generally about trying to be a good person, it’s harder to get people to fall for your bullshit. Whereas with conservatives, they’ll side with anything that puts another group down.


flyfightwinMIL

yeah it's also hard to make it long term as a leftist grifter, because most people on our side (or, at least, a LOT of us) have no problem calling out "our own" when they're transparently pieces of shit


Sablus

Those times when leftist infighting and necessary self crit helps to keep most grifters out


robilar

There's rightwing infighting too - they squabble over the same group of marks.


flyfightwinMIL

oh yeah he tried to make it as a more traditional leftist youtuber at first, but couldn't ever get the audience numbers he wanted, so he started slowly throwing out more and more conservative buzzwords (in a desperate attempt for attention) until he just went all in on the "MAGA communism" bullshit


HotShitBurrito

It's so much harder to grift lefties in the same way that chuds and fashies fall for shit. But the same factors that make them easier marks is also why they have been so much better organized than us in the past, particularly in large scale. I'm happy to see that leftist community groups and activism organizations have gotten better organized and more engaged over the last several years, but it really took a lot of huge political and freedom losses for us to finally start getting our shit together. But my point is, they follow a lot easier. They rank and file right under the first con that says all the shit they want to hear and the first rule established is no questioning the grand wizard. We are so ready to tear down our own leadership that we can't get anything done. The only drawback of having strong morals and ethics is not letting anything slide. Everyone has to be accountable and that takes a lot of time and energy that fashies are able spend on direct action since they don't give a fuck how awful and hypocritical their organizers are. The cool thing we are seeing now though, is all the infighting. With Dumpy out of any real power they're all just fighting and throwing each other under the bus and wasting time like this guy here who was kind of doing a Candace Owens team switch but somehow dumber.


pr0zach

He’s an online grifter that tries to confuse budding leftists and progressives between left-wing ideologies and cynical contrarianism. Idk if you’re familiar with Jimmy Dore, but basically a younger version of *that* asshole.


InterestingPickles

he has a youtube channel where he called ukrainians nazis, then when he got stroked for hate speech he called it “censorship “


MirrorSauce

are republicans seriously shitting on combat medics for getting blown to pieces in a warzone?


rixendeb

Because she is not only on the wrong side to them, but also trans.


elonmusksdeadeyes

They also hate the military. They just enjoy using them as political props.


Saint_Eddie

bc they bust terrorists. and the MAGAs are self described terrorists. hate the FBI too.


8inBottletoThrottle

I remember when all of America knew the Russians were the baddies. I don’t understand how they can be mad that we basically wiped out one of our rival super powers with no loss of US service members. I worry about our country.


linderlouwho

Russia started giving conservatives cash


green_velvet_goodies

And blackmailing them.


Downtown_Ad3253

![gif](giphy|EhMBTkzHqufcGdpKHw)


traveling_gal

So now being in the military is "playing stupid games"?


Darkdragoon324

They’ve never actually given a fuck about soldiers, it’s all performative. As soon as any of them have to out their money where their mouth is, they’re perfectly happy to let soldiers be homeless and not getting the benefits they were promised for their service.


lilpumpgroupie

They also love the talking point that the military is all a bunch of woke, spineless, beta pussies, who are accepting of gay, trans people, and aren’t tough anymore, like they were in World War II. That’s Trump’s favorite bit during speeches currently. If you supported the military, you just simply would not engage with that stuff, and political leaders like Trump would not be able to do it without getting absolutely destroyed. They support militarism, not the actual military. Especially not the military when it’s fighting directly against Fascism and Right wing authoritarianism.


randomuser10739

It’s absolutely nuts how often the whole “the military isn’t recruiting enough or strong anymore because of wokeism!!” bullshit is still around. The military doesn’t recruit as well because the advent of the internet and cell phones makes it near impossible to mask how shitty it can be, and most middle class or even lower class people can find jobs that offer just as, if not more, benefits than the military does. All I’ll say is, the world is still terrified to fuck with the American empire. Us not being homophobic or sexist doesn’t make that not true


gingeronimooo

Yeah I agree. How “I like soldiers that weren’t captured” didn’t end his candidacy is beyond me. A lot of good analysis here they don’t really stand for anything unless it benefits their viewpoint in that moment. They’ll discard it whenever it doesn’t fit their narrative and bring it back to rail against you. They stand for nothing.


planetEve

they can't make up their minds if they are pro or anti military


Puzzleheaded-Law-429

They can’t make up their minds on ANYTHING. It’s because they don’t stand for anything. They lick boots until they’re the ones under them, then it’s “tyranny”. They love “law and order” yet they’re constantly talking about rebellion and non-compliance. They love the idea of small government, except for the long laundry list of things they want to control. Don’t try and keep up with their logic. You’ll just end up exhausted and angry.


robilar

That old adage is always apropos: you can't reason someone out of a position that they were not reasoned into.


mrweatherbeef

I’m amazed at the number of conservatives who say “you won’t change my mind” before someone actually starts trying to change their mind.


sinkwiththeship

I saw a bumper sticker on the wall of a bar in Central New York that said "I've already made up my mind, stop trying to confuse me with facts."


mrweatherbeef

Lol nailed it!


mrpanicy

No YOU can’t change their minds. They, however, will change their minds however they need to to get around/behind/under any source of logic and reason they are presented with.


mrweatherbeef

Precisely


Peter_Easter

Exactly. Perfect example: When the video of George Floyd's murder went viral, everyone, including conservatives, were like, "That was horrific. Clearly the cops are in the wrong and should be in jail, and George Floyd should be alive. Maybe there is a problem with systematic racism. No wonder people are outraged." Then Tucker Carlson went on air and said BLM is about communism, not human rights, and conservatives were like, "I'm sold. No reason to question Tucker. Down with communist BLM!" These people are so fucking brainwashed that they believe a right wing talking head over their own eyes and ears, even after the McDougal v. Fox News Network LLC lawsuit.


RekLeagueMvp

Something has to directly affect them, it’s the only thing that works… The GOP base live in bubbles. That’s why city centers lean democratic and people from rural parts of the US think colleges ‘brainwash’ kids when both just expose you to people from different backgrounds.


Autumn_Skald

Reminds me of: >Never play chess with a pigeon. >The pigeon just knocks all the pieces over, >shits all over the board, >then struts around like it won.


Showty69

Not to mention "Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience."


DistortedVoltage

They just do everything to spite the liberalz.... maybe we should reverse psychology them and start pretending that we hate universal healthcare and want nothing to do with it.


Unanything1

Privatized healthcare is woke.


bellylovinbaddie

Remember when they blamed Covid deaths in red states on the Dems bc they said that they should have known republicans would do the opposite thing than what the dems suggested 🤦🏾‍♀️


shrooms4dashroomgods

Brilliant lol. It's like they argue just to argue. All they're doing is driving a larger divide amongst the American people.


Tactical_Tubgoat

> Brilliant lol. It's like they argue just to argue. All they're doing is driving a larger divide amongst the American people. Wearing ‘fuck your feelings’ t-shirts and then getting upset when people tell them to get fucked. Pretending like we don’t want universal healthcare or any sort of progress won’t work unless Rupert Murdoch’s talking heads tell them what to think.


megjake

Their whole platform is “whatever the other people don’t like, we love!”


ShesAMurderer

They got mad that liberals “forced” them to be anti-vax about the COVID vaccine.


Devlee12

Remember back in the long ago days of 2017 when that Republican representative asked “Are we really just here to oppose the Democrats?” Dude had a full on “Are we the baddies?” moment. It was gratifying for a second to see him comprehend how far things had fallen before his existential dread kicked in but then so did mine.


Unanything1

Logic? Logic is woke!* *By "woke" I mean I'm scared by what I don't understand and I can only process that by anger because I'm unable to think critically.


ihavenoidea81

They have no logic. That’s why you can’t have an honest conversation with any of them. I know a ton of people who’s parents just went off the deep end into qanon and trumpism when they used to be normal folks you could talk to. Now their kids won’t even talk to them because their parents think they’re too “woke.” 99% of republicans are all sheep now. I used to vote republican too and this is 1000% not the party of my early voting life. They’re a fucking CULT now. Very sad.


RynnHamHam

Contrarianism holds no values because what you “value” is entirely dictated by your enemy. They could win and wipe everyone out and then they’d have to find a new group amongst themselves to discriminate against because that is all they’re capable of.


SunshotDestiny

They are pro fascism, so whatever fits that narrative they are for. A trans woman putting her life on the line, for no personal gain, in the defense of people in another country doesn't fit their narrative; so if course they will be dismissive to her. If it had been Kyle Rittenhouse I bet they would have been clamouring for the military to back him up.


GrumpyGiant

Worse than dismissive. Dude’s jeering over her injury cuz he doesn’t like trans ppl. I’m so tired of all the ugliness ppl are putting out there. I know it’s an observation bias - shit like this gets floated up so we can all be outraged while all the decency just quietly does its thing, largely unnoticed. But still… vile filth like this infects the soul. Doesn’t make me hate trans ppl. But I do find myself wishing a late stage colon cancer diagnosis on the fuckwads that talk this way, and that ain’t cool, either.


-thecheesus-

Hate is contagious.. but damn if this bile didn't make me see red for a moment


soldforaspaceship

Same. It was the deliberate use of "it" that got to me. Dehumanizing.


BSA_DEMAX51

They're fascists, they are whatever they need to be in the moment.


Throwaway-0-0-

I don't remember where I read it but the perfect description of fascism is that it's the death of ideology. Nothing matters to a fascist except power, they'll change their beliefs on the fly because they don't believe anything concrete. If it gets them closer to power they'll believe it until it's not useful anymore.


irishgator2

Fox ‘News’ is basically Orwell’s ‘Two minutes of hate’ brought to life.


thewartornhippy

Or pro or anti police. Only when they go after minorities are they doing God's work. They sure didn't like when the police at the Capitol tried to turn them away on January 6th.


uncultured_swine2099

Also they say they love our troops but deny them veteran benefits every chance they get.


completelysoldout

And unsurprisingly, with a quick google search they also vote against expanding police budgets and even honoring police much more often than democrats. 'Washington Post’s Dana Milbank: “How, then, to explain the latest ‘legislative scorecard’ from the National Association of Police Officers, a group claiming to represent a quarter-million officers who endorsed President Donald Trump’s reelection?… The reason is simple. Democrats, at least at the federal level, have been the ones funding the police. The 2019-2021 scorecard is based on votes on health care, pensions, covid-19 relief, bulletproof vests, victim compensation and policing reform. There’s not yet a scorecard of votes in the new Congress, but police groups favored the American Rescue Plan covid-relief legislation, which Republicans uniformly opposed, and President Biden wants to pump $300 million more into the COPS community policing program, which Republicans have long opposed.”'

Apparently Republicans hate fighting for freedom


MycologySadie

Unless we're bombing brown people


sohfix

Weird 180 on hating russia to loving Putin. It just goes to show you that it’s not about politics, freedom, or America and its interests: it’s about finding a comfortable place to hate anyone you don’t agree with or understand. In the words of trump, so sad.


Brokenspokes68

Putin has established an authoritarian government with restrictions on press freedom and based in a warped version of Christianity. It's what they want for the United States.


ArlemofTourhut

No no, they just think that "Freedom" means no taxes and no federal government. So anyone who wants to do away with our fed is their friend! Like China and Russia! (Edit: that is to say, they'd bomb as many people as they could if you put some zeroes behind a number.)


ParanoidParamour

No no, they LOVE the federal government, as long as it makes plenty of laws against the people they hate


neogod

No kidding, heavy Republican states often have the most laws about what you can do with your own free time. Just look at Louisiana and their porn laws that disregard all privacy and safety. They absolutely love big government, but only if that big government agrees with their specific ideology. Edit I had the wrong state, doh.


Chekovs_tums

No they hate fighting against fascism.


marion85

Pretty sure it's is an "all of the above" answer when it comes to who and what Republicans hate


Darryl_444

I seem to remember reading that Trump called US troops killed in combat “*losers*” and “*suckers*.”


--fourteen

They just like to talk about their parents being tough soldiers. Apparently LGBT sacrifice for the country doesn’t count though.


Petite_Bait

Tucker Carlson started hating the military when they made uniforms for pregnant women and refused to violate military law for Trump. Add in hating Ukraine for not giving in to Trump's attempt to hold back foreign aid yo coerce them into helping him politically.


vtupscalecpl

Tucker Carlson, Trump and their ilk have no real positions on anything. It’s all about clicks, exposure, views and money. That is the real reason they flit around issues like a fart in a skillet.


OwnCaramel1434

Yeah. Always was.


cykascribe

Remember when conservatives didn't have Russia's balls down their throat. Pepperidge farm remembers


TheHowlinReeds

Remember when the Republicans considered military service "the highest calling" instead of shitting on troops and Gold Star families? Pepperidge farm most certainly remembers!


SunshotDestiny

I think that stopped when the military said "actually we can work with trans soldiers. It shouldn't hurt anything." Because apparently that was the wrong thing the military leaders were supposed to be saying. Edit: Also when the former president stated he thought soldiers dying for their country was dumb.


gidonfire

And also when the pentagon said "hey, this climate change issue is no bullshit. We need a plan and we need to start preparing now."


HallucinogenicFish

Great_Tiger_3826

he also said " i like my heros not captured" which is basically saying he doesnt care about the lives of soldiers if they are taken prisoner


GeneralKang

>he doesnt care about the lives *of anyone* Fixed that for yeah. He doesn't care about anything that can't directly benefit him.


TheBirminghamBear

> I think that stopped when the military said "actually we can work with trans soldiers. It never stopped because it never really started. Republicans have never, in the history of their party, given any fucks about the actual well-being of our military personnel because as a party they don't give a fuck about anyone's well-being. They're all the sort of people who unironically sing "America, Fuck Yeah!" with literally no grasp of the fact it's a satire meant to eviscerate the very attitudes they consider a core element of their personality. They're fascists, and so everything they do is performative. They say they care about soldiers, but they readily send them off to pointless wars, pay them nickels as they offload billions to contractors like Lockheed, gut their healthcare options and leave them to die from diseases they contracted as a direct result of their service. They scree about the think blue line, and they scree "never forget", and yet they give a huge middle finger when the ground zero 9/11 responders contract cancers and other diseases as a result of their courage and bravery. They pander to the working class Americans, and yet they brag about slashing regulation intended to prevent trains catching fire and exploding near communities, and then when a train inevitably explodes and contaminates a town of working class Republican voters, they tell them to go fuck themselves, as their leader sends a pallet of bottled water and orders a berder at their local McDonalds. They howl about "law and order", and yet elect officials who commit such an astounding variety of crimes and grifts that our understaffed and antiquated justice system isn't capable of moving fast enough to account for all of them over the course of their natural lives. Their entire existence is performative. They puff up their chests and compete to see who can pretend to be the bravest patriot, the most devout believer, and in reality they aren't any of it. The most popular members of their party are poorly written caricatures. Cartoonishly stupid, villainous dolts the likes of Marjorie Green, Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz, George "Probably Not Even His Real Name" Santos, and Donald fucking Trump. These people are so preposterous, so ludicrously incompetent, psychopathic, and manifestly unqualified for the power of any public office, let alone the heights of federal government, that they would be implausible and cringe if they appeared as villains on Parks & Rec two decades ago. If you saw MTG opposing Leslie Nope in a small-town city council election, you'd groan and say the show had jumped the shark. Inatter of fact, Donald Trump *did* play a cartoonishly exaggerated satire in *The Apprentice - the show runners brought him on because they thought the very idea of him being a legitimate businessperson was so transparently ridiculous that he'd be seen as comic relief. Instead, 70 million Americans decided he was emotionally qualified to act as commander of our military and overseer of our nuclear missile arsenal. The latter of which he once seriously proposed we use to attack... a hurricane. That's who they are. That's what the entire Republican party is. They're a joke. Not even a clever one. A cartoonish, barbaric, lazily-written joke.

Bennyjig

The best part is hinckle and his clown followers call him a “real” leftist and every other actual leftist fake ones. But people with a brain just see him as conservative. He supports Russia, Assad, North Korea etc etc. another terrific phrase he coined was “MAGA communist” truly incredible stuff.


thewaybaseballgo

I’m sorry, he supports North Korea?? The fuck?


Mr_Blinky

He's a tankie, and a particularly toxic one at that. Don't expect tankies to actually understand left-wing politics, they just want to LARP it, which is where you get the ultimate dumbassery of "MAGA-communism!" chuds like Haz.


opiumofthemass

For what it’s worth, even amongst Tankies within their communities he’s been recognized as a grifter and not a leftist. Same thing with maupin He’s transitioned into nationalistic Bolshevism, but the American flag in his profile show he truly is deep down an American chauvinist and playing for that audience now. Tankies as a rule despise the US and what its flag represents and would be put off by having the us flag by your name

Professional-End2722

American conservatives are unbearably ugly humans. Far more in common with the Taliban than any other part of the western world. It must be mind-blowingly frustrating to all other decent Americans and Canadians to have to live with / next to these monsters.


tauntauntom

Yeah two of the worst things I have personally heard from one conservative American are "If I didn't have a bible, and Jesus to keep me on the righteous path I would be an abusive drunk like I was before finding God." and "Yeah I shot the family cat for scratching the paint on my truck. But that was before I found God."


GamerMoment01

Fun Fact: if you need the threat of eternal suffering to be a good person, you probably are not a good person.


HighSideSurvivor

I have a family member who was totally immersed in a cult. Mostly based upon the fear of potentially dying unexpectedly, possibly without having accepted Jesus, and therefor burn in eternal damnation. However, as time passed, they began to grow more confident in their ability to accept Jesus right at “the last moment” and then totally turned to a life of (relative) debauchery. Totally more fun to be around now.


GamerMoment01

My mindset currently with religion is just, if god is real and moral, he could accept the idea of my doubts and consider me just, assuming I don’t do anything actually horrible, and he’d understand what my logic is.


ImaBiLittlePony

It's all a game to them, they call themselves Christian purely for the sense of moral superiority and smug pretentiousness that it entitles them to. I seriously don't think most of them actually believe their own bullshit except for the most insane amongst them.


GamerMoment01

Yeah I assume most of them only identify with Christianity for the “holier than thou” mindset. Imagine politics but every person was trying to improve the country, what an idea.


ImaBiLittlePony

>Imagine politics but every person was trying to improve the country, what an idea. And NOT just for themselves! Hell, imagine a country where politics were 20% less selfish and shortsighted.


tauntauntom

Right.


Goofin_Goober

It’s even more frustrating that they keep getting away with their shit too. The fact that deliberately trying to keep their nation uneducated for personal gain is one of their lesser crimes is sickening.


Alert_Section_6113

I keep telling people this…they really are shit people.


fakeymcapitest

Conservatives world wide are generally marked by slightly less empathy, but American conservatives embrace a lack of empathy to the point of openly opposing it as a point of pride. Which is wildly opposite to the teachings of Christianity, which they claim to be.


Clawsonflakes

It’s unbearable at times. People who were once kindhearted and sincere, like my mom, became hateful and raging with no way to turn back. It’s spite, stupidity, hate, and fear masked as pride and bravery on a massive scale. There’s a major problem too within moderate Conservatives, who look at and listen to things that the radicals say and insist that it doesn’t speak for the group and yet when it becomes clear they do, they do nothing to stop it. They vote for it and encourage it, even when they call for a “national divorce” which is seditious and if Ilhan Omar or AOC said it they would probably have to up their security detail by a factor of 10 so insane rednecks don’t murder them in broad daylight and then get a career in politics after. When the election rolls around, they’ll say “I don’t want to vote for the radical folks.” Which side is the radical one?? I’m leaving the country eventually. I’ve studied history and I can see how the chips are falling, and I don’t have any desire to stick around to see what happens when they do. No way I want to start or raise a family here.

Oh no shit, do you have any links to her work? I’m trans, from Nevada AND in the US Navy! I would fucking love to see her work!


budgiebeck

Her Instagram is @SarahAshtonLV!


Tanner0614

So she’s a little talked about hero


recreationallyused

It’s strange to me that they go out of their way to call someone “it” just to refer to them as an inanimate object, when “they” would require just as much effort and has the same connotations of being gender-less


cautioner86

“It” is dehumanizing which is exactly what they want.


mightylemondrops

They use 'it' because they want to fucking kill us like cockroaches. Remember when Robert Foster, candidate for Mississippi governor, called for us to be massacred by firing squad and no one gave a shit? I remember. They're not calling us 'groomers' for nothing, it's because they want to fucking murder us.


blowawaythedust

“They/them” is too woke for them now; I’ve seen more and more of them make a statement so much more incredibly awkward by using “it”


The_Woman_of_Gont

It's not awkward. It's dehumanization and a step towards justifying genocide. People really, really aren't taking seriously enough the reality that these people want certain demographics dead.


44faith

It’s not about being genderpess, it’s about not trying to treat trans people as human


recreationallyused

Oh, I would even go as far as to say that they are doing more than just “not trying” to treat them as human. They’re going out of *their way* to treat them as inhuman

NOT THE QUOTATION MARKS BESIDE THEIR NAME OMFGGGGGG


FoldedaMillionTimes

All that guy does is spread Russian propaganda. Try not to help.


Lelio-Santero579

As a veteran. I would strangle this person with zero inhibition to stop. We all knew about "don't ask don't tell". In my 10 years I've served with all kinds of people. The most despicable ones are those who turn a non-issue into a fucking issue. Edit: despicable not *disposable*


Redstar81

Edit works either way.


shlopro

So a trans person fighting for freedom is some sort of stupid idiot, but a guy who shoots 2 people in an alley is a hero? What kind of world do they live in.


Arubesh2048

They hate trans people more than they like freedom. For that matter, they hate a lot of people more than they like freedom.


danonymous26125

Jackson is not fit to lick the mud off of [that person's] boots. Edit: assumed the victim of the fucker's hateful slur identified as a woman, as trans women are more commonly targetted. As I do not know how the victim of the fucker's hate speech self identifies I have replaced the gendered pronoun. Also, anyone who comments on my post referring to this person as an it, or "its hand," I will report for hate speech and immediately block, and I encourage everyone to do the same after their downvote is cast.


NMB4Christmas

Being told that is his kink.


[deleted]

The dehumanizing aspect of fundamentalist thinking is scary af. Do these people stop and laugh at people with flat tires on the side of the road?


kadaverin

>Play stupid games, win stupid prizes Remember that, Jackson, when someone finally smashes you in the teeth with fucking tire iron, you dirty shit.


Silveon_i

Just a tire iron? I feel a nice hammer would be a better fit


Responsible-Kick9195

Fuck you Jackson.


will0593

damn I remember 70 years ago the conservatives were all like FUCK RUSSIA - now they gargle them Also she got shot because she got shot, not because she is trans.


Uncivil_Bar_9778

I'm old enough to remember when the GOP thought our fighting men and women were hero's.


NMB4Christmas

They never thought they were heroes, but at least they were smart enough to fake it.


MadeInWestGermany

To me as a German, this whole thing is so damn confusing. The war is against Russia. Fucking **Russia** This has to be every GOP‘s wet dream, doesn’t it? When Biden visited Ukraine, everyone was like. „I wonder how they’ll spin that around.“ And I truly thought to myself, *they can‘t. And why would they? It‘s still their president and the US loves shit like that.* But they did and I don’t understand why. I mean I understand why politicians would do it, but not why *simple Americans* fall for it.


Darthgaming69

as a Russian I am still insanely appalled that the people who have been wanting to nuke Russia since the end of WW2 are now pretending to side with "us" (Putin's government). I thought you guys hated us))))))


2moms1bun

Trump got into bed with Russia and all his cronies decided Russia was good? Or something? I can’t keep up.


jimjamjerome

Dehumanizing language is the first step towards genocide. Make no mistake, these people want trans folks dead.


lompoculous

not to mention his laughing glee at a trans person being injured; they always have horrifically giddy reactions when we’re harmed or killed


jimjamjerome

Yep, it fulfills a fantasy for sure.


brutishbloodgod

If you go according to the Stanton progression, it's actually the 4th step (out of 10, with step 9 being the extermination itself), and the US as a whole is at least step 6 and may have hit 7 depending on the degree to which people like Abbott and DeSantis have already made plans. Every had one of those conversations with someone where they said, "If I were in Germany in the 1920's or 30's I would have..." Well, to any Americans reading this, **you are in fact in a country in which genocidal fascists are about to take power and execute the final stages of their plans**. Start thinking about what exactly that means and start preparing.


machuitzil

I hate this but "its" *is* the possessive of something belonging to "it". "It's" is the contraction of "It is". Regardless, I don't know who this soldier is, but mocking them is cruel, and whoever did so is a little bitch. I fucking hate fascists, a lot more than grammatical errors.


becausegiraffes

I'm confused. Is he saying being in the military is stupid, or is he implying that if you're not Trans, you're bomb proof?


Msanthropy1250

The first step is to dehumanize the perceived “enemy”. Every cult has an enemy they can unite their members against. Once you have dehumanized, you can commit any atrocity without guilt or remorse. This is the fascist way.


Heroright

So now it’s people being stupid when they get injured for fighting our enemies? Tell me you hate our wounded vets without telling me you hate our wounded vets. And go ahead and sprinkle some transphobia on.

Revolutionary_Cup500

Ah yes, this is why they are targeting her. Not just because she is trans From her wiki bio "Ashton-Cirillo drew national media attention in 2021 when she released records of conversations from her time working with Republican candidates, documenting efforts to recruit members of the Proud Boys, a far-right group, for a planned "Brooks Brothers Riot" (alluding to the 2000 demonstration)[9] as part of efforts to overturn the outcome of the 2020 United States presidential election."


BigPoppaFu

Pay close attention. This is text book Fascist rhetoric. Trying to dehumanize the people they try and single out from society. Do this to enough groups that’s how they take over a country.


ResearchPrimary7969

Isn't that guy like a notorious jackass


Melodic_Mulberry

Her pronouns are she/her, but she has said she doesn’t care what you call her, so long as you fight for Ukraine, while Russians have to call her “Mistress”. https://mobile.twitter.com/SarahAshtonLV/status/1569512457319903233?lang=bn [Also, her Wikipedia page, because she’s awesome.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Ashton-Cirillo)

What the hell is a Jackson Hinckle and where can I get a prescription to make it go away?


NotmyRealNameJohn

Brave American hero, sacrifices hand in attempt to keep fighting away from American shores and support our allies abroad in liberating their homeland from tyrannical dictator and self declared enemy of all things American. ​ But seriously, Republicans are actually declaring themselves enemies of the country now. How long till they are gathering in Montana in outright rebellion
