The evil guy is missing his MAGA hat...

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 73 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Eh, this has been Republicans since long before MAGA. "Personal responsibility" and all that...

All Trump did was take away the dog whistles and pass out bullhorns.

Trump is but another symptom/consequence of the Reagan Republican era.

Yup, if he had a fatal heart attack today, the GOP would still be pushing the same bullshit. Trump would not have been as effective without Fox News shilling for him 24/7 either.

I love their unofficial "motto" the "party of personal responsibility."

Also, if they do anything wrong, no they didn't. It was the antifadeepstatepizzaelites or something.

OK... But left wingers actively support social welfare programs that prevent situations like this. Right wingers actively prevent them.

Usually they're Hungarian tankies that are one step away from realizing Kádár and Rákosi reinvented the protestant work morals within their eras. Gulags were pretty much "correction camps for the lazy", and Orbán has a "more humane" replacement for them, called "public work program".
