Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Republicult™ On Parade
Last post by Abbot Mythos - Today at 11:50:21 AMHere's yet another example of a white trash MAGAt hero preaching to his choir:
As per this article:
"UFC fighter Josh Hokit used his post-bout interview Sunday night at the White House to disparage former first lady Michelle Obama.
In a post-fight interview, the heavyweight fighter praised President Donald Trump for hosting the event, which was intended to celebrate America's 250th birthday.
He then insulted the mother of one of his rivals, thanked Jesus and ended by shouting: "And lastly — Michelle Obama is a man! Am I right, America?""
After all, that's what MAGAtry is all about. There may be a Presidential Medal of Freedom coming this asshole's way in the near future.
The former first lady and her husband, former president Barack Obama, have frequently been the targets of racist insults.

Nonsense. The farmers harvest when the crops are ready. That doesn't happen on a fixed schedule. Calendars sometimes come in helpful for determining when to plant, but the current year's conditions matters more. Anything the "scholarly class" knows about farming they learned from the farmers.
QuoteThe progression from cave people to modern people was not linear as we have all been brought up to believe.
I wasn't brought up to believe any such damn fool thing. I perceive that you are full of shit.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - June 13, 2026, 09:09:09 AMFor decades, my rule of thumb has been that no matter how bad a 'Merican president is at his job, his approval ratings will not drop below 33.3%, or roughly 1/3 of the people polled. (I freely admit, my rule of thumb is little more than my opinion, based upon my observation of 'Merican politics.)
Still, given how unimaginably bad this POSOTUS is at his job, his aggregate approval rating has yet to drop to that level.
So, while I don't doubt there are a few members, here and there, who are becoming disillusioned enough to distance themselves from the Republicult™, I'm not optimistic there will ever be anything resembling a mass exodus. I'm more inclined to believe this cult will simply rebrand itself. Again.

Last post by Pergamos - June 12, 2026, 04:34:21 PMMy roommate is a magat, he's loved Trump all the way, until he started driving up the gas prices with this foolish adventure in Iran. I don't think the inflation statement is something he noticed, it's pretty typical senile Trump rambling, but I can definitely see him alienating even his die hard fans at this point.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - June 12, 2026, 05:57:13 AMI think the Republicult™ would have reacted much differently to this statement, if a Democratic President had made it:
As per this article:
"Asked about the new report that the consumer price index in May had jumped 4.2% over the last year, the president took a surprisingly optimistic tack with the challenging news. Trump didn't dismiss the affordability issue as a "hoax" that was started by Democrats, as he has done previously. Nor did he claim that he was bringing down the cost of living.
Instead, after the government said that inflation spiked to the highest level since April 2023, Trump praised the numbers.
"You know what I really love?" Trump said. "I love the inflation.""
However, I'm not seeing any outrage among the brain-dead faithful. So, I'm taking the lack of it as just more proof that the Republicult™ really is a cult, in every sense of the word.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - June 11, 2026, 08:48:37 AMQuote from: Omnidextrious on June 08, 2026, 05:28:03 PMBefore the dark ages, empires controlled the flow of knowledge, until the collapse of the Western Roman Empire. These non-interesting parts of History between the well documented established orders contained unbroken lineages of familial bloodlines and religious orders which absolutely kept secrets from the rest of us.Conspiracy theories are a defining feature of our Discordian mythology. It's one of the things that drew me to this religion, as I find many popular conspiracy theories to be highly amusing.
However, those of us who, for our amusement, occasionally claim the be members of the Illuminati, The Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria (A.I.S.B.) - the World's Oldest and Most Successful Conspiracy, need to be aware that not every force that drives civilization originally sprung from a conscious, organized conspiracy. I submit that describing how our various previous civilizations operated, and how our current one operates, is more difficult than that. And, believing in conspiracy theories can lead to paranoia.
