    gallows humor is often adopted by those closest to the gallows

    maybe putting through the trauma of regular gun violence is the problem? but what do i know

    Yeah, it’s pretty funny.

    That said, the kids are not alright, because often those that are making those memes are also listening to Nick Fuentes because he is fed to them in their algorithms and is willing to performatively criticize other rightwing creators because it is hilariously easy, while still slipping in his ethnonationalist horseshit. I mean these are usually the same people that grew up thinking Andrew Tate and PewDiePie are ‘not political’.

    They often mistake me for one of them because I have a tendency to be very vague about my politics among strangers, especially teenagers, but when they say something that is funny, I can’t help but laugh, then they keep going and eventually I’m not laughing anymore lol.

    Idk why but Ii feel a teeny tiny bit “sad” for him ,your wife didn’t care about you ,you were murdered horrifically in front of your children who are kids ,despite THE CULTURE being significantly more conservative now ,your death was still for some a cheap way to make money and for most a joke even the people that supposedly supported you ,he was however a victim of his own doing , but I will start by saying although he should be blamed for his support of “THE 2ND AMENDMENT” ,this is unfortunately a symptom of American society and culture at large as even liberals and supposed communists support having it ,the 2nd is the debate bro culture he helped foster as well as and I know this also existed in America but he helped significantly increase it “culture of Apathy” ,I am no fan of Pelosi but saying that someone who basically went to her house ,tried to kill her and hit her husband with a hammer is an “American Patriot” and volunteering to help bail him out ,it’s disgusting

    American society as it currently stands is easily the most toxic on the planet ,had The USA not been who it is and had it not been as strong as it is ,it genuinely would end next year
