I'm not saying this because she's a MAGA supporter. But I do believe the woman is mentally unhinged and has lost her grasp of reality. It started long before Trump. Trump just made it worse because he gave her something to latch on to.

honestly trump is the same in some ways. trump, musk, roseanne all went off the deep end and taking folks with them.
What I find most interesting about her is that my MAGA family loved her character on Rosanne the TV show. Then HATED her when she sang the national anthem and scratched herself like a baseball player. Now they love her again.
None of this is supposed to make sense, it's just supposed to make them feel good to have someone "rejected by Hollywood" saying the same idiotic shit they say. The fact they are responsible for her being "rejected by Hollywood" doesn't even cross their minds.
Your family are sheep, doc.
Without question.
So, I guess she isn't getting better, is she ?
"At age 16, Barr was hit by a car, and the car's hood ornament impaled her skull; the incident left her with a traumatic brain injury. Her behavior changed so radically that she was institutionalized for eight months at Utah State Hospital"
These fools do not even understand the definitions of the words they keep spewing.
People create meaning in words. What she said was: BAD LIBERALS! LIBERALS BAD! BAD SCARY LIBERAL! LIBERAL LIBERAL BAD BAD! BAD SCARY!
It still doesn't make much sense, but they understand that message. I wonder what sleep aid she's going to blame it on this time.
Also, is this message highlighted in some gross brown/yellow to anyone else?
Just another piece of white trash screaming uneducated white trash things.
LOL, is she going to blame that on Ambien as well?
It's a pretty old grift to take a word and weaponize it just because the word has power already. Most people are stupid and it plays right into what they want to hear. They have no idea what the definitions are, nor do they care.
The left have been calling them "low information voters"... Just call them what they are. Idiots that have the same voting power as everyone else. And no critical thinking skills to understand the world around them being shaped by their own actions.
An uneducated populace deserves a fallen empire and that's exactly what they're going to get.
Idiots that have the same voting power as everyone else.
There's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated
Political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred
Majority rule don't work in mental institutions
3 hours later and only my upvote? For shame, Lemmy. Do your homework; listen to NOFX preach. ✊🏼
I appreciate your upvote, my dude
Polite folks might say low information voters. I just call em hick ass morons. The insult of hick seems to still land pretty well too.
what comes out of Roseanne's mouth has always been a real breath of fresh fart
Too bad it’s not SBD
She’s the poster child for every white, light haired, dirt bag, self righteous, unhinged, bully aunt in everyone’s conservative family. Most of us want to give her a knuckle sandwich but can’t because she would probably eat it.
she is like musk to me. actually liked her a few decades ago.
For real. Super disappointed. Roseanne was the first show to really show what an actual American family was like besides maybe All In the Family (which would never get made now, oddly enough!)
Because all in the family was representative of a time when open racism and domestic violence were so common that they could be used as punch lines on a prime time tv show?
Did you watch it? Archie is not portrayed as a role model 🙄
Yeah, but it’s not common enough anymore to be so in your face, it looks like what it is a tv show made back in the day, reflecting the cultural zeitgeist.
People are still struggling with the same issues now, but not to the same degree, we have made a lot of progress, and it just won’t hit the same.
I miss the x-files, but people who didn’t trust the government or thought their might be shady coverups were anti-American and so it lost its popular appeal
Thanks for explaining. In a loose way we're saying something similar - All In the Family doesn't work anymore as a show. I think it absolutely highlighted the friction between conservative parents and their more progressive kids, but that friction hasn't been resolved and it's rubbed open a nasty national wound. And ain't nobody living thru an apocalypse gonna watch a show about the end of the world.
King of the hill was my generation’s version of that
Plus it was one of the few portrayals of a working class family and their struggles. Here's an article about it
In the first season’s finale, Roseanne inspires her fellow workers to quit their jobs when a new supervisor raises quotas on production; she then jokingly compares herself to Sally Field’s character in Norma Rae. And a 1992 episode features a skeptical speech directed to a state representative who promises tax breaks for corporations as a way to revitalize the local economy. Audiences—and advertisers—took notice: The AFL-CIO aired a pro-union commercial featuring the famed labor activist Lech Walesa during a 1989 episode of the series.
I bet her next comedy special will be oh so funny.
So is this a good entry point for reminding all these people that Putin = bad?
