I’ll never understand the appeal and hold Trump has on the minds of weak men who worship him. This man killed his own daughter is insane.
Human psychology and propaganda. It works on smart people too.
People keep saying that, but 1) having a degree is not a sign of someone’s general intelligence, not even close, and 2) it absolutely has a greater effect the dumber you are.
Intelligence is curiosity and being able to have a greater degree of nuance in your thinking. It’s being self-aware, and about being able to understand transferable properties. A LOT of people, regardless of education, struggle deeply with those concepts.
Decades of lies and crumbling control over their material lives and social status.
Imagine you were abused by most of your adults in your life. They would hit you, demean you, restrict what you ate, who you could love, what you could say, and also expect that you must, at risk of your own life, become “a man” too. You must work your life away to achieve something great, you must provide for your family, you must create a legacy or you actually deserved that abuse you suffered from. Now every year you get poorer no matter how much you work. You see your family less day after day as they get sucked into a life of constant work. You can’t be sad though that’s unmanly. It can’t be someone who is “succesfuls” fault because you are “the man” the master of the universe, just like the rich and powerful or else you are a loser that deserves abuse and ridicule.
So you watch the news, your civic duty, and they tell you that people out there want to make you less then nothing. They want to strip being man of prestige (and with that do you really have anything). They want to strip hard work of its value (and if everyone just got what they needed what was those decades of abuse for?)! But you know you wouldnt just be nothing then, youd be less then that. You would be a loser, a life spent as a joke, and worthless.
Trump, like you, is a strong successful man. You and him can fight together to stop the woke feminazis from destroying your family. Stop the immigrants from invading your home and making you poor and insignificant. He’s not perfect sure, but he’s fighting for you, the only part of you that matters, the only part you know you still have left.
Even better your new allies give you something else, a miracle tonic for the parts of you you ignore and ache. Enemies and the constant reassurance that everything, and I mean everything is their fault. You, like a man ought to, can fight a tangible threat and be a warrior. You just have to tell your self “they are lying to manipulating everyone else”. When your wife threatens your leadership role as the man? Thats the enemies’ lies. When HR threaten your lively hood? The enemy. When you children avoid you? The enemy.
You don’t have to reccon with anything. You’re not abuse. They’re soft. Your parents were harder on you, and look at you. Not just a man. A warrior. Willing to sacrifice everything, for not just your family, or country, but for civilization maybe even part of holy war on the side of supreme good!
It’s thought terminating. Decades of lies and abuse to justify decades of being and commiting abuse. Yes they need therapy. They need to have a space to actually learn to see themselves as humans worthy of love and a part of a great web of connections with people that both can love them and they themselves deserve love as well. They also need real tangible material improvement. You might be able to therapy people out of status demands like big house, boat, big truck, and those are huge costs on the average American household, but so is healthcare, food, and training to stay employable (which we call education in the states).
Sorry for the rant.
Lead pipes, sub-par educational system, peee pressure, propaganda machine, social media bubble, being a shitty human being to begin with
Weak persons, get with the program.
Fascism is alive and well in Texass.
Don’t forget to read beyond the headline, folks! The headline makes it sound like she was killed because of the argument, but based on the account of the events in the story, that isn’t what happened. He was clearly drunk and handling a firearm recklessly (and probably more than a little bit trying to “own the libs”), but according to the late girl’s boyfriend who was nearby, the father was horrified and screaming for help immediately after this happened. This wasn’t any sort of “honor killing” or anything, just an idiot redneck being an idiot.
Damn I gor drunk and accidentally killed my liberal daughter. How I let this happen, complete mystery.
According to the boyfriend, yeah, that’s exactly what happened. The argument was probably a cause of the accident, but not a motive for murder.
Everything’s bigger in Texas, including the raging stupidity and lack of respect.
Texas is a deeply cruel place
So because of this precedent, can just anybody shoot their daughter then claim “oopsie daisy, your honor” and get away?
Only if she was one of those commie liberals, and you did it to defend Supreme Leader.
Babies expect to be fed and housed and cleaned up after without contributing in any meaningful way, so according to conservatives, they must be 100% commie
Luckily No, and sadly this is exactly how the system is meant to work. The grand jury did its job as intended, deciding if an action is even seen as a potential crime, and clearly in texas the people don’t see this as a crime.
Should have prosecuted it as an abortion.
Just goes to show you how gullible people are and so many people are waiting for someone else to save them. MAGA is exactly that. They wanted racism back and the possibility of the american dream is still possible in their eyes. They ignore the writing on the wall to believe what they want to believe and finally found someone just as jaded as they are, but he happens to run the country.
Living in the south, you see just how dumb most people are and they refuse to pay attention to anything related to the government or the country. They are too distracted with gambling, alcohol/drug addictions, social media, work, kids, movies and tv shows, etc.
This is the type of abortion Republicans can get behind.
Certainly, the asswipe MAGA father, will turn into a born again fucknut Christian Nationalist. The Texas Oblast continues to shit on itself through the courts.
Making the case for gun control whilst trying to protect the 2nd amendment, the irony is overwhelming
Being Pro-life is about having variety of people to kill. Make sense. The fact that they believe in Jesus or Allah tells you a lot about religion, who believe in that nonsense and why.
So this is actually about gun control and not Trump. We all agree that you should not have access to a gun if you’re insane. But we also agree that alcohol gives you diminished capacity. We can’t have guns and booze ever.
It’s important to also remember that fascists construct queer people as insane, and it’s completely reasonable for even an insane queer person to shoot an armed fascist. Would they not deserve a little tequila shot before and after, as a treat?
and you see why jurys are chosen based on the biases of the courts, thats why it should be eliminated in general.
I thought coroners only determined the cause of death, not the legality of the death. Natural causes, accident, suicide maybe only self inflicted, and homicide. Not all homicides are unlawful.
I mean, butter face
You saw a news article about a father who killed their daughter and your immediate comment is how much of this dead girl is fuckable?
You’re pearl clutching over a shit post. Get over yourself.
You’re a stain on the world. Change yourself for the better.
Very valuable contribution.
