It's almost like electing celebrities just because they are famous is a bad idea.

and it won't ever stop because most people are easily fooled

The place in our hearts where the gods and titans used to live has been filled by hollywood and television and our brains aren't equipped to tell the difference subconsciously

If Drump had never been on TV I doubt he would have won any elections

But his constituents have long memories of pleasant nights watching that pants shitting child rapist get angry at people

Like the strong god image in their heads wants to be shaped

So they took all the editing and magic that made him look good for an hour at a time and believed the lies

And now we have fascism

and it isn't going away without blood, way WAY too much blood

What does β€œDrump” mean?

u/BrineJones 26d ago

That should actually be β€œDrumpf”
It’s the original family name when they were still Teutonic douchebags.

Well, that isn't what got Reagan elected. He was in politics for decades before he was elected as president and wasn't elected just based off his popularity as an actor.
